“Does everybody know why we have gathered here?” said one of the 15 imposing figures as he looks around at his company, all of which seemed humanoid but with features that go beyond humans and every other race in existence. “Yes, we are here to decide what to do with our brother’s foolish mistake” replied one of the strange beings, who appeared to be female with hair blue in colour that waved down to her shoulders as if it was a river, “Correct adelena, as you heard our brother Vax has done something forbidden to us gods and has had a child with a mortal, and we have to decide its fate” the gods started to discuss among each other about what should be done and every now and then a god would shout their idea at Frogar the god of unity who stands in the middle of the group.

The idea’s given by the gods varied greatly as some would shout things like “Just kill the thing and be done with it” (mainly the gods of chaos and death) whereas others were shouting nearly the opposite claiming they should leave it with the mother of the child and just prohibit any meetings between father and son (likewise the gods of life and peace). As time moved on, no progress was made in coming to a decision as the gods could only succeed in getting into arguments.  All of the sudden an extremely loud crack was heard and as the gods looked into the sky it seemed to shatter momentarily until a man appeared before the gods. All of the gods recognized the one before them as vax the god that had caused the problem.

Unlike the other gods Vax seemed to be a normal human, no elements of nature made up his body like the gods of nature, (fire, water, ice, earth, lightning, wind, light and dark) his skin did not give off light or fog and anything of the sort like the gods of peace, life, war and death and had no physical quirks like the gods of unity (a tattoo across his face showing an endless cycle), chaos (pitch black, cracked skin that seems to pulsate every now and then)  and wisdom (a third eye on his head that symbolises his amazing insight with a tattoo of a crown around his head). Vax just looked human except his body was impeccable, muscles bulged with scars covering them, however he did not look ridiculously big since he had no useless muscle anywhere on his body.

The rest of the gods watched Vax who just stood silently staring daggers at them all when finally after a minute of silence Chronos the god of chaos spoke up in a spiteful tone “What reason do you have for interrupting our meeting brother” Vax replied in a voice so cold that even Glacia the god of ice shivered “You know very well why I am here, and you should know that I will not allow any harm to be done to either my son or my wife” after he finished Helios the god of fire (and a hothead, ….. literally) screamed “ARE YOU THREATENING US, AFTER YOU BROKE THE RULES OF THE GODS” While the flames on the top of his head erupted towards the sky, changing colour from red to blue to white and giving of an immense amount of heat, Vax then focused his entire presence on Helios and Helios alone and a second later, the heat was gone and Helios looked terrified paralyzed with fear.

At the sight of this the other gods, barring of course the gods of life, peace, unity and wisdom started to prepare to fight when for the first time since the entire meeting started, Estrawr the god of wisdom spoke “Calm down people, all of you…..NOW!” the others were somewhat shocked that he raised his voice when Helios, still slightly scared, weakly replied “but Est he broke the rules and then threatened us” Without changing expressions Estrawr simply replied “All of you idiots get into arguments while threatening each other fairly often, not really a big deal anymore brother and as for breaking the rules, I seem to remember someone getting angry at losing a bet and starting a major disaster in the world, not to mention this is the first time Vax here has ever broken a rule before and it is something we can deal with, he is just a child so we can watch him grow and see what he becomes over time, However a breaking a rule still deserves punishment so seeing how much Vax here cares for his family, After all he threatened to start a war between gods for them, I propose we make it so that he and his wife cannot raise their child, after the boy grows we will have no control over where he goes, should he travel to meet his parents then fine but that will be the first time he will meet them.” No one could refute anything that Estrawr had said, Vax included.

Vax was calmer now though because he knew his family will not be harmed then looking at Est with sad eyes he said “Very well, I am not against this, however I do wish to request that my wife and myself get one last chance to say goodbye to him” Estrawr smiled and replied “I see no problem with that brother, say your goodbyes then I will take the child to his new home” at this statement chronos, while glaring at Vax, said “Why do you get to decide where the child goes” to which Estrawr just replied “Vax’s wife was someone with one of my major blessings, so in turn the child was born with my minor blessings on him, this means that the child is under my protection” and after hearing this chronos could do nothing but grumble his displeasure. Vax then spoke up again “then I will go to my wife and explain what is happening then we will say our farewells, However I Warn you all if any harm EVER befalls my son and I find out that someone here caused it, you will experience my full fury” after which he quickly left and all the gods except Estrawr shivered with fear.

The reason for the gods fear was because of Vax’s nature, he was usually extremely peaceful never really causing fights, and although he had no spells/weapons of mass destruction or large army’s to command he was by far the most powerful of the gods, as he was the god of battle, any form of fighting no matter what he excelled at, martial arts, brawling, weapons mastery he could cut a mountain with a broken twig and unlike the other gods who got lazy when they reached a wall in their power he continued to train and get stronger simply because he enjoyed it.

After Vax was done Estrawr took the child to some faraway mountains covered with jungle trees and left the child close to a primitive looking village while saying “child grow up here away from corruption and become a being with a pure and kind soul just like your father” he then left when he saw villagers he wanted to raise the child.
