Athos and Helikon marched up the rain-drenched hill to an old Roman wall that spanned nearly half of the lush green countryside. Athos’ fingers were tightly wound around the glistening gem. Standing in the drizzling rain were three of their friends. Ourea.

Athos nodded at Helikon who then circled around their three counterparts. Athos proceeded to the center of the group, laying the stone on the ground. He waved his hand over the shining gem, chanting. His eyes rolled backward and the gem lifted into the air.

He moved back into the circle, spreading his hands and touching the outstretched fingertips of Kithairon and Nysos. The group chanted in unison, speaking an ancient angelic tongue. The clouds swarmed overhead, swirling into a large gray mesh. Wind blew up the hillside, rocking their stoic bodies back and forth. Thunder crackled in the air and a wall of fire engulfed the five Elemental Knights.

A pink cloud billowed from inside the gem, slowly growing larger around the five Ourea. Athos’ eyes rolled forward and a grin slowly crept up the corner of his mouth. He looked at his siblings, each representing an element he wished to absorb. He looked back into the gem, seeing what he had to do to finish becoming a god of the elements. His brothers and sisters knew it too.

“The sacrifices of mortal flesh alone cannot deliver us to where we need to be.” Athos lifted his voice over the slowly growing ruckus of the beaming gem. “To be what we dreamt of becoming, we must take more drastic measures.”

“The power of Durga, Architect of the cosmic forces, can help us manipulate the laws which bind all living things,” Helikon said, nodding at Athos. “Now that we’ve obtained the power of an Architect, we shall obtain the soul of a mortal and the essence of five immortals.”

“Parnes, Helikon, Kithairon, and Nysos; we will become gods,” Athos laughed, looking up toward the sky, his feet slowly floating off the ground.

“What of our pact with the Giver of Day?” Nysos asked, swallowing as she looked warily at the others. “His human followers are bound to know of our betrayal. They’ll inform him.”

“By the time Ra finds out that we’ve harnessed the power of his sister, we’ll be too powerful for even him to stop.” Athos smiled. “It is time for the Ourea to repopulate this planet. In order to do that, we must evolve like our human counterparts.”
