Chapter 1 God?
After feeling the pain of getting a Lightning Bolt in my face I’m surprised to still feel anything at all I was never a good member of faith the last time I was at church was years ago but what I’m seeing around me right now makes me think that that may have been the wrong choice I’m standing in front of the strangest office I think that you could imagining there’s endless rows of desks and on each sits an Angel and works.
There are even coffee machines and groups of Angels standing there and talking its strange to see angels be so normal.
“Sorry Miss could I please get your attention for a moment?” I look to two Angels standing in front of a group of 5. The are clearly different than the other Angels the have 6 wings and Halos that look like crowns.
“Sure, Mister Angel” I say skeptically.
“Oh, where are my manners I’m Arch Angel Michael And next to me is my brother Lucy.”
“Lucy like in Lucifer as in The Devil?”
“Yes, but don’t believe what the Bibel says the misunderstood many things Lucy here is one of the nicest guys in heaven and Lord of Hell, but Hell is not eternal suffering its more of a Place for Souls that have issues and need help.”
“Like a Psychiatry?”
“More or Less yes but we don’t have much time the Boss wants to see you guys.”
“The Boss?” Askes an old Man that carries a small, frightened girl in his arms
“Yes, the Boss, God Lets go we don’t want to keep him waiting he’s a busy man.”
So, we will meet God That’s really exiting.
What will he be like is he like the old or the new part of the bible? But Michael said we should not believe the Bible so better don’t think too much about it.
After we arrive at a big but simple door that Michael opens for us, we stand before him God.
He´s not really that impressive sure he looks good for an old man a nice, trimmed beard casual clothes on a friendly smile but not like you expect God to look.
“Hello my Children I’m heart broken to tell you this but you 6 died and its my fault that you died I was just signing these papers and accidentally pushed over this bucket full of Divine Lighting that I got as a gift these lightning bolts dropped and pierced your souls but I cant let you suffer because of a mistake on my part so I will have an Offer for each of you a second attempt.”
“I have to apologize for interrupting God but why can’t u send us back I have family waiting for me.”
“I’m really sorry but that’s not possible the Lightning bolt that got you was a divine lightning bolt and Earth doesn’t allow for gods to walk on earth.”
“What do you mean with Gods?” Asked A Hispanic looking guy at that god looks sad.
“The Lightning was divine, and your souls took a little bit of that divinity and now you are on the path to godhood right now you are half a step on the long journey too godhood and before you ask no I can’t take it from you your souls already changed if I took that divinity from you your souls would break.”
“So I have to offer you a alternative and that would be the Ever growing Forest it’s a plane of existence that never stops growing right now its as big as the solar system there are already gods there some long dead others powerful enough to destroy entire planets but the plane is strong enough to endure these powers my offer is not without danger there is civilization there but not even a fraction of the forest is civilized monsters as old as this universe live there horrors untold and dangers a plenty call the woods home but that is what young gods need to grow strong and have a chance at growing and building something for them selves I will not let you go there blind I will help you choose your first domain and help you if you want to change your races or other stuff that needs sorting.

Just read through the system message and if you need help you can ask me.”
“What System Message?” asks the American girl that standing with the Hispanic and afro American guy.
“The System that governs the Ever-Growing Plane.”
New User Initialing….
Name: Selina Woods
Age: 17
Race: Human, Demigoddess
Level: 0
Boons: 1 Divine Boon, 1 Greater Boon, 1 Lesser Boon
….
Please decide on your boons
“Mister God could you please help me what are these boons the system is talking about?”
“Oh yes I nearly forgot about them the boons you can gain boons for doing quests for the System or archiving something great and it lets you ask a favor from the system the higher the grade of the Boon the Higher the favor you can ask from the system.”
Please decide on your boons
Ok let’s try something System is there a race of werewolves?
Werewolves not found….
Can I create the race and change to its progenitor for one of my boons?
Yes, but it depends on the Traits that you choose for this race the more powerful the Basis the higher the cost.
Perfect and If I make negatives will that lessen the cost?
Yes, negatives lessen the cost of creating a new species.
Ok then I want to make a race of lycanthropes they repopulate through a bite or drinking the blood from a lycanthrope the newly created lycanthrope must obey their creator they can change forms the first form is what the were before the bite the second form should be a Wolf and the third form should be a warform a humanoid wolf.
Accepting Parameters… Changing Factors….
Adding negatives…...
Race Lycanthrope created…
Your race changed to Progenitor Lycanthrope base Form Human
Consumed Divine Boon
“What can I gain for my Greater Boon, God what would you recommend?”
“What I would recommend? Hmm I would recommend unlocking your mana pathways or else it will be up to luck.”
“Ok System unlock my mana pathways.”
And for my lesser Boon Hmmm I have an Idea System what would you recommend for my Lesser Boon?
Analyzing your Data….
I would recommend a Living Soul Bond Weapon It would be weak now, but it would grow with you
Ok then I Want a Living Soul Bond Magical Staff. I’m going to be a Mage.
All Boons spend….
Please decide your first domain…
“God, I have to decide on my Domain now.”
“Good now what are domains even?
they are your area of control, things you can do or not that doesn’t mean that you will be locked out of the other things you want to do but you will always be better at using your domains like if you have a Fire Domain and use Fire Magic it will be Leagues above your other magic disciplines but that’s no reason to be sad if you grow strong enough and nourish your divinity you will be able to get more domains and a little warning the moment you are finished the System will take you to the Ever-Growing Forest”
“Ok but what dd you mean with nourishing our divinity?” Asked the old
“You need to gain followers that worship you and for every faithful you gain Faith that you can use for stuff like miracles and other things there isn’t any kind of Limit what you can do if you have enough faith but without it you will wither and die a god needs Faith to survive but don’t worry I will send you a small amount of Faith so that you survive the first month but after that you should get some worshipers to provide there faith for you”
So, a domain what should I choose for the First Domain Hmm let’s think it’s an ever-Growing Forest so Maybe Nature would be good or something like Life…
But I also Have to gain Worshippers how could I gain them? Oh, I Have an idea. The Domain of Live should let me heal people and help them that should make it easier to gain worshippers.
“God where will we be located once, we select our Domain” interrupts the old Man once again my thoughts. But that’s a good Question.
“You are randomly transported to a place that doesn’t kill you the moment it sees you so no spawning inside of a volcano and drowning in Lava you aren’t strong enough for stuff like that yet, and if some of you want to be put together you can form a pantheon the system will place you together somewhere.”
Hmm that’s interesting but I don’t know anyone of the others so that’s probably not a good idea and we would have less faith because we would need to share with each other so no thank you.
System I want the Domain of Life
Domain of Life chosen…
Initialization transportation …
And again, I lose consciousness….
