Ascension of the Nephilim

Histerion smiled as he bade farewell to the group.

"Brace yourselves. This power will also alert my True Body as I write in the Scrolls of History! And unto you, and your Temple, the power of Memoria will be given!"

The power of Histerion surged. A pillar of Brimstone shot from where Kyros, Listrel, Lea, Mechiel, and Hems stood, and it shot towards the sky and pierced the darkness. This small ray of light flashed a tiny beam, and the power of Oblivion closed the last gaps of any memory about the Unrecorded Pages.

Histerion's true body felt a change. He could still not detect the source of where the power came from. But he turned to see the scrolls of History.

In it, a strange line was added all over the events of True Time.

"Prophecia, your daughter, was lost. However, through the power of the Nephilim harnessing Mysterion, her memory has returned. Mysterion promised to find her."

Histerion saw it, and suddenly, tears of sadness fell. The very act itself was against all forms of law. The very incarnation of Joy felt sadness as he learned of the power that robbed him of his joy.

Histerion was angry. There was a greater joy to be experienced. But the enemy has deceived him into thinking that his current life is already joyful. He felt as if he was so captivated by looking at a diamond, not knowing that it was just a small stone in his paradise.

But as he saw it, Histerion focused on the promise giver, the Nephilim, and the power of Mysterion.

"May my joy be complete." Histerion harnessed the power of Brimstone and knew that he had to hide the return of the Nephilim. He could not even remember sending the Nephilim into the Unrecorded Pages, but he knew what he had to do. He caused his Brimstone energy to erupt throughout the universe in anger.

Two words were etched once more in the Scrolls of History.

The names of Listrel Protos Endoxos and Lea Olethros were etched again, and everyone began to remember.

To everyone who had eyes to see, ears to hear, and a mind to understand the Beings that Were, it looked as if Histerion was only sending an angry attack toward Lanthanou and End.

But hidden in the wild power, the brimstone that came out of the Unrecorded Page had fought and pushed through the small ray of light that connected towards the power of Mysterion.

With Kyros and the others leaving the Unrecorded Pages, the power of Lanthanou completely covered the Unrecorded Pages causing all to forget everything about it.

The light crossed the great distances and sought the Nephilim Sealing Temple. The power of Lanthanou had completely covered the entire Unrecorded Pages save for a small dot in its existence. Something was holding off the power of Oblivion, but Kyros and the rest suddenly left that place, and the Unrecorded Pages were sealed and forgotten. All the memories and adventures they had were all removed.

Wisdom and the Lord of Lies felt it.

"What is this feeling?" The Lord of Lies wondered. He had forgotten all about the existence of Kyros, that he was the Nephilim, and even about the plans.

By some other power, they held on to some prophecy of the ascension of the Nephilim and how he will bring power and eternity into being.

"Husband... This power... you feel it too?"

"Yes. It's derived from me!"

"Derived from both you and me... Then that means... it's our son! I see. Lanthanou. He used his powers. Our son must be the Nephilim..." Wisdom quickly deduced as she sensed it.

"Mysterion is back. We forgot about it. A battle must have happened. This must be related to why Histerion acted against End. But now, Histerion will be guarded, and Lanthanou won't have his chance other than this. Whatever we have forgotten has been preserved by our son. Now even Fate and Destiny have forgotten about this. They will only sense a champion of Fate! End and his team have forgotten about the prophecy. The words of the forgotten god that left this prophesy before he or she was forgotten are now lost on End. Only we know it now." Wisdom smiled.

"So our deception finally worked? Again, End will be a blur. And this time, they won't know from where or when the Nephilim will arise."

The moment Kyros crossed through the light.

End felt a terrifying power attack him.

"What happened?!" He roared in anger, and all of the creation trembled.

Destiny. Pausontai. Apathos. Thora. Lanthanou. The Beings that Were who served End appeared one after the other as their powers were all affected.

"What happened?!" Thora shouted in fear.

"Something is happening! End is no longer inevitable!" Apathos shouted.

"What's going on? Lanthanou?! If we all don't know, then it must be you!" Destiny accused.

"..." Lanthanou couldn't answer.

End took form and appeared among them.

"It is uncertain... While End is uncertain. Eternity has not yet come! Lanthanou... This must involve Histerion. But this event is kept hidden from all of us. This means... that despite the plot that assured our victory all these years, our enemy has found a way to reverse it. We can still win back our losses. Let the march of the future begin! Awaken Eschathema! We must usher in... the Apocalypse!"

On Beginning's side, the teams had also gathered as they felt the fracture of End's reign.

"Everyone. A plan that has been set from the Beginning is now bearing fruit. From here on out, we can expect the Last Days to arrive. Eschathema is sure to awaken. Prepare your seeds and forces in the living realms. The war to Middle will soon come!"

Back at the Nephilim Sealing Temple in Middle...

The sealing of the Unrecorded Pages caused a massive effect that twisted the very memory of the entire world. But none were more affected than the allies of the Nephilim.

The entire area around the Temple had transformed in the following months.

All the allies of the Nephilim had relocated and poured out their possessions and important relics and brought them inside.

The Temple was heavily guarded with proper walls and became a powerful fort. Weapons of war, such as ballistas, catapults, and other powerful weapons that could harm Champions, were present.

But everyone faced great danger.

Mezal and Branze were seated at the center of the Temple's house. They kept discussing the head-splitting confusion.

Some parts of their memory remained. The power of Lanthanou could not fully sever it because of the power of Mysterion.

At that meeting were the core members of the Steele Family.

"This doesn't make sense. As I have pointed out... something bound us all together. We have visions of this, correct?" Branze Steele asked.

"Yes. We, the Coven on Crack, can only remember our Lord Cracky Battcheeks... And somehow, his blood is what created us. But other than that... my memories are a blank!" Martha answered. She represented the Coven on Crack.

"Our calling was also from a mysterious altar. The power of the Stars, of Astra, speak of another power." Demerus Emberdon represented the Emberdons.

"I am telling you all! It's Kyros!" A woman shouted angrily.

It was Scarlet.

"I don't know or remember who he is or what that name has to do with anything... But it's him! My husband!" Scarlet answered.

"Suppose that you are right. This husband of yours... This Cracky Batcheeks... what a god-awful name... And this one who gave birth to the power of the Stars is here... Then all the mysterious memories we have, including a battle in this very world, but a few thousand years ahead in the future, have this entity at the center. We can conclude that we are being attacked by either a god or a fallen."

All the heads began to murmur and speak.

"My son has spoken correctly," Mezal added.

"Our memories are being changed. And this is a terrifying power. We could be here one second and will remember stranger things that could force us all to start killing each other. Whatever or whoever we served united us. Some have joined more recently than others. But now, the purpose to which we gathered is being threatened!" Mezal added.

WARP!

Suddenly, the Temple began to glow a bright orange light.

Everyone inside felt a strange heat and a powerful joy they could not understand.

The energy gathered right in the very middle of the Temple. Then, the place where Kyros was once sealed began to tremble, and Brimstone began to pierce through it.

Mysterion released its powers, and five forms appeared right at the center of this place.

At the arrival of the five, the Temple began to give a startling glow.

The parting gift of Histerion was activated.

[Memoria] surged out, and everyone who was called into alliance of the Nephilim began to remember the missing pages of history.

"Corner Stone... Welcome back." The first one to call out to Kyros was Petra, the king of the Golems.
