Hidden away in the far corners of consciousness was a single speck of ember, burning through thousands of lifetimes. That ray of hope took root in a single world as a little seedling, subtly embedding itself to the tree of life.
That little single speck of light glowed brighter than any other light- big or small- it was beautiful yet weak. That light will someday grow brighter and stronger than any other light.

Attaining knowledge and becoming what you are today. A race who was not powerful, the weak of the weakest, yet they defeated the strong. Humanity.

Even so, war waged by humans did not cease. Natural death had been uncommon during that age. Those who were touched by disease suffered for years, aware of the deterioration that ravaged their physical bodies over time. Sometimes lives were taken at the hands of an enemy, or fellow man, whichever one held the most scrutiny against the other. There was no escaping death; those who lived would be haunted by plague and famine that loomed over humanity.
It was all because of a god’s whims, that humanity suffered through lifetimes, yet humanity prevailed through the god’s whims, they broke the chains that bound them to the god’s and lived their own life unbounded by the god’s.
They attained forbidden knowledge, aimed much higher.
The god’s were angered by this so they counter attacked humanity to let them know their place in the world.
Yet one woman stood the ground and defeated the god’s, a human who was the head of the state of their own little kingdom that humans created. The one who led the fight with the gods. The QUEEN.
