[Opening Subject Universe Information 05 - A Story of a Deity][Helena]
In this world divine beings rule the heavens and can bestow man a piece of their eternity to join them in the clouds. Only those in their last breaths can be chosen by one of these divine rulers to ascend.
Helena is one of these chosen mortals.
A white phoenix known as ‘the divine lord of light’ found Helena among the ruins of a long deserted battlefield. While fighting for what breaths they had left, the phoenix held a wing out to Helena and bestowed upon the sergal a second chance.
This was not without reason of course. As is tradition with the divine lord of light, every 100 years the ‘king’ must pass on his crown to the ‘prince’ to begin a new reign of rule.
And blessed with the ability to see into the future, the divine lord of light is able to see forth the new heir and prepare them for their ascension when the time is right.
Helena was not this heir, but the phoenix chose them anyway. The future the phoenix saw would not birth the next heir in time before this world met its end. But mostly, it was that the phoenix couldn’t stand to watch what was left of a close friend’s family die.
Under most circumstances divine rulers are decided entirely by the people.
An individual can be granted life by a divine ruler, but that doesn’t mean they will become divine rulers themselves.
What indicates whether one is of the divine is by black sigils that etch onto the neck, wrists, and ankles. These sigils are lost if a divine ruler loses favor with their people, or if knowledge of their reign is lost. And when this happens they become wandering spirits free to traverse the universe.
When specifically the divine lord of light grants a mortal a new life the previous lord will lose their divinity. Any fur or feather that is not showered in white naturally is made white when one ascends, so when one loses their crown the color will return and they will become a wandering spirit.
This is a gradual process however, so during this time the previous lord will retain some power and will be bound by some restrictions. One such restriction is the inability to share any visions they came to witness during their time as the divine lord of light.
Limitations to the divine rulers as a whole do exist.
Unless a divine ruler wants to be bound to the world they rule they will not traverse the mortal plane and will not alter the natural course of the world. If they were to speak to a mortal it would only be their chosen oracle, but even then the risk of binding yourself to the world is high if done carelessly.
A divine ruler bound to a world will tie their lives to it and its people. If the people die, so does their god.
During the slow shift in power from the previous divine lord of light to the current, Helena traverses the mortal world without a worry.
His divine marks had yet to form so he could not be recognized by the people as a divine ruler. So, during this time he could act like any other mortal without worry of being bound. This is when Helena meets who is to be their oracle in the future.
He was a feline soldier a couple years younger than Helena, someone Helena knew before the battle that should have had them slain.
They spent all their time together during the year Helena was free to roam the mortal realm, so once he had to return to the heavens you hardly needed to ask who would be their oracle.
After the first year the phoenix taught Helena what it is like to be the divine lord of light and the powers they should come to acquire over the next fifteen years.
Though when Helena questions about the other eighty five the phoenix brushed it off, saying “there’s no need to learn that now”.
It takes eight years for half of the transition between the two divine lords of light to happen (it takes so long because Helena was not meant to be the one chosen). And this is also when Helena gets his first vision.
What is seen is that of a large, dark, ominous fox-like beast. As the visions continue to grow in number the words “owari” and “end beast” stick in his mind, and the form this owari takes becomes clearer and clearer.
It is a large black fox-like creature riddled with red eye-like patterns over its oozing half liquid body. A fox mask rests where their face should be, but they don’t appear to be able to see through the eye holes in the mask. It seems the markings on their body itself are their eyes.
Every step the beast takes would leave the earth dried and rotten. Every paw print left decay and a strange smell of ozone.
Helena would tell the phoenix about these visions and be met with silence. Then Helena would warn of this to the other divine rulers throughout heaven and would be met with similar responses.
The gods did not wish for their rule to end, but they also did not want to risk their lives in trying to prevent its ruin, leaving Helena the only of the divine rulers who actually wished to change fate.
The phoenix tried to convince Helena otherwise but the sergal would not be swayed.
Over the next three years Helena would talk extensively with their oracle. They find that the many battles and wars, ones that even Helena was a part of in the past, were the catalyst for the end beast to awaken.
But it became clear that speaking through an oracle was not enough, so Helena truly descended and became one with his people.
Many were lost in the hopes of slowing the end beast, but little worked.
As it trudged throughout the world it grew in size until it split into several smaller owari. Only the original kept the mask, but that did not make the smaller ones any less deadly.
4 years later only one major stronghold remains.
Having an almost completely deified Helena as the leader of this stronghold kept it fighting far longer than any other.
Only the original host remained of the owari and it had made its way to the stronghold.
The fight both went on forever and was over in a second.
In the end Helena won the battle, but wasn’t able to change fate.
The final blow given by Helena onto the beast was done at a cost.
They were too engrossed in their goal that they did not realize everyone else had fallen. Only their oracle remained. And an unfortunate doge from Helena had them getting hit by the corrosive body that was the end beast.
When the beast collapsed so too did Helena shortly after. His final breaths were his best friend’s final breaths, the last of his people.
And that is where the story of a deity ends.
A young sergal searching for their dying friend from where they lay. A black feathered phoenix watching from afar. And a hand reaching out, hoping to grab the wing that once saved him in the past but that sadly cannot rewrite fate a second time.
[Yin, Yang | Unknown, Ori/Owari]
Yin was a black furred feline girl, and Yang was a white furred feline boy.
Whether they were lost to the war or just abandoned as kits, the two were without parents and lived on the streets. They relied on each other to survive during these harsh times and considered each other to be family.
Yin was smaller than Yang, but she was also the more confident of the two as Yang was shy and reclusive, while Yin was energetic and friendly.
And then there was a doctor. This doctor traveled from one war torn town to the next until they stumbled across Yin and Yang.
Intrigued, the doctor watched over the two for a couple days. Having found them suitable they asked for Yang’s assistance. And in exchange, they could grant the cat food and a place to stay.
Yang agreed, as long as Yin could help too.
And the doctor agreed.
He and Yin were taken far from their own town to where the doctor resided. When there the pair were drugged and whisked away to the doctor’s lab to begin the experiments.
Yang only remembers blurred fragments of this time. And Yin sadly, did not survive the ordeal.
The clearest memory Yang recalls of this time was him waking up on a table. All clothing stripped from him, and his body in unimaginable pain.
His body itself was no longer what it used to be. Black fur now covered what used to be an expanse of white. Black fur that looked remarkably like Yin’s.
During his confusion, the doctor walks in and explains to Yang what has happened and how it was a ‘remarkable success’.
Yin and Yang had been merged in what could only be called a ritual to create a god.
Once he came back to his senses, Yang lashed out at the doctor for what they did.
Yang was unaware of the new power that he held within, and although his intention was not to kill, in his rage he did just that.
Alone and confused Yang fled.
Both from the doctor’s labs and who he used to be. Adopting the name Unknown.
Unknown was an incomplete god.
His divinity was not recognized by the heavens, and thus he could not ascend to the skies. So he roamed the earth, purposefully keeping away from towns and cities.
One day Unknown met a fox spirit.
The spirit had no name, so Unknown called him Ori.
Ori was an outcast in terms of fox spirits. His emotions were deemed ‘too human’ to fit in among the rest of the mischievous spirits. So Ori lived alone until Unknown came along.
Unknown stayed with Ori.
The spirit reminded him of his time back when he and Yin were still living on the streets. Although it was tough, they still had that childlike innocence and hope for a better future. And with Ori, Unknown found family once again.
The war drew closer and closer to the forest in which Unknown and Ori lived.
To Unknown it meant they might just have to chase them off if they got too close. To Ori it was more than that. The miasma of man was leaking further into his pelt each and every day they got closer.
Unknown was aware that spirits could not interact with mortals for fear of being corrupted, this was something Ori had told him. But he was not aware of how exactly the miasma spread. So in his ignorance, Unknown did not suggest they move. And Ori, seeing just how happy Unknown has become since their first meeting, doesn’t want to scare Unknown and keeps his pain to himself.
Ori can only keep this secret for so long though.
One morning Unknown is awoken to the sound of Ori writhing in pain. When Unknown examines Ori there is a deep black tar-like substance dripping from off his arm. It spreads all down his left arm and partially on his chest, neck, and leaks into his eye.
The divine part of him instantly recognizes it as miasmic corruption, and all too hauntingly does it also recognize that it is at a point where it cannot be reversed. The only way to rid Ori of his agony would be to put him to rest.
But Unknown is unable. He does not want to lose his family again.
And Ori, not wanting Unknown to go through that, accepts his fate and continues to live.
As time passes his condition only gets worse.
To spare Unknown having to watch his face melt away from the corruption, Ori wears his signature kitsune mask. At some point, it merges with his flesh and can no longer be removed.
The grass and flowers around wherever Ori lays starts to decay, and his awareness of the world around him grows fainter with every passing day.
The overwhelming pain of having his body burned and melted away endless with no relief driving him to insanity. An urge to hunt and kill those that have corrupted him gradually starts to consume his mind.
But despite it all, Ori is brought back to reality whenever he hears Unknown call his name. Even if it is only brief. And he can control the corrosive fluid that is now his body to not harm Unknown.
Unknown does not stop Ori when he leaves the forest.
He does not stop the fox when he attacks people who get too close.
And he does not stop Ori when he starts seeking out towns and cities to destroy.
Blinded by the love for his family and his hate for those who have robbed him of it once before, Unknown simply watches from the sidelines.
At the end of the world. At the final showdown, where a divine ruler descended to try to put an end to Ori’s ruination. Only then did Ori find peace and only then did Unknown realize what he had done.
Ori’s final moments were tranquil gazing upon Unknown, the pain along with any and all feeling fading away. His mask having fallen from his face, Ori smiled for the first time since he had become an Owari, and Unknown wept.
Alone again, Unknown remained.

[Opening Subject Universe Information 01 - The Kingdom of Roses]A world ruled by kings and queens.
Each kingdom is named after different types of flowers. However the kingdoms with the most power are named after roses.
Mei belongs to the kingdom of the blue rose. He is the fourth and final son of the royal family. Because of this he is unexpected to ever see the crown and thus isn’t given as much care and attention as his older brothers.
He never minded this however as he had more leeway when it came to wandering the streets of the common folk. So long as he dressed down during these visits and kept his status a secret he could do as he wished.
Ruka lives within the kingdom of the blue rose. Taken in by an orphanage, he was abandoned by his parents as a young kit due to being intersex.
He is often bullied by the other boys within the orphanage since he looks ‘different’ and is physically weaker than them. Because of this he prefers to be alone.
During one of the young prince’s times outside he comes across Ruka in the market buying food to take back to the orphanage. Ruka, mistaking Mei for a kit sent to help him carry the groceries, fills Mei’s hands with what he bought and drags the snow leopard back with him to the orphanage.
When they get back Ruka realizes his mistake and would apologize profusely.
After that Mei and Ruka would come to notice each other more and more every time they went out. Each time they found one another they would gradually get closer.
What started as a simple greeting as they passed by turned into stopping to chat, forgetting what they had even gone into town to do, which then turned into actively seeking each other out around town.
On one occasion when Mei goes to visit Ruka he stumbles across the cat being bullied. He intervenes and helps the other boy back to their feet, awkwardly asking about the remarks the bullies made about Ruka as he did.
Ruka would talk about what he’s been going through all throughout his time at the orphanage. Mei, not knowing how else to help, offers to teach Ruka self defense and how to wield a sword (or in their cases, a very large stick). These were skills he was originally taught back at the palace, but when asked how he knows these tricks it is quickly brushed over.
Mei teaches Ruka what he knows, and he never sees Ruka struggling with his bullies again.
The eldest son of the kingdom of the blue rose, Ryuusei, was one of few people who still paid attention to Mei. Every now and then he would assist him getting into town since he knew the young prince preferred that over royal events.
On one such occasion when Mei wished to go out and see Ruka, Ryuu noticed this and excused Mei from an upcoming banquet. This banquet however was what changed the fates of all those that stood atop the kingdom.
Poison laced the food and left many dead. The eldest son Ryuu survived but was left too sickly to rule, and the other two brothers who attended sadly met a tragic end. Leaving Mei the sole heir to the throne.
All attention turned to Mei, so leaving the palace to wander the streets became all but impossible for the prince. Meaning Mei and Ruka were unable to meet.
During their time apart Mei was nurtured into a fine and modest king. Changing from boisterous and easy going to something more regal and calm. Holding himself elegantly while never looking down on others.
While Ruka found himself becoming self-sufficient at an earlier age than most kits. Because of his knowledge of the sword and ability to reprimand troubledoers despite his size, he was often hired as a personal guard.
Ruka also became well known among the people because he was such an oddity. He was both thought highly of in terms of his skills, but also scorned by those who were jealous and by others for who he was physically. He’s often called “The Devil’s Dog” behind closed doors.
Only after ten years has passed since the tragedy is Mei able to meet Ruka once again. But their first meeting after so long is accidental and over before the two can even greet one another.
They get another chance to meet again while Ruka is acting as a hired guard. The tiger he is hired by visits and stays at the palace of the blue rose. Here Mei is able to pull Ruka aside at night and the two finally catch up.
Not long after Ruka finishes all his work he is hired by the royal palace to become one of Mei’s guards.
While in the presence of Ruka, Mei acts a little more like his old self. He’s a little more casual, a little more boyish, a little more free. Ruka however continues to act like the guard he is. He is very courteous toward Mei, speaking in minimal short replies when spoken to. Only breaking formalities when Mei teases him, making Ruka forget his position amidst his fluster.
Late at night Mei would sometimes stroll through a nearby forest along with Ruka.
During these scarce few occasions Mei would truly act how he wishes around Ruka, reminiscing on the past. And Ruka would join him, though a little more hesitantly, finding it difficult to shake the formalities.
And during these nights together is when their relationship that only sparked faintly when they were younger really starts to take root.

Henlo my fellow dorks~
Given this account is for sharing exclusively about my own lil dorks, would there be any interest in me delving into the proper lore and stories for each of them?
I've been debating making a little "lore hub" of sorts talking about the different universe info on my characters.
Probably nothing too detailed, I'll leave that for the rare occasion I can actually write stories for them. But enough to get to know the characters through more than just the art I get for them :3
It would nonetheless take me a decent while to actually write it all up, hence wanting to see if there's any interest first~
Edit - I'll be working on some info over the next few days then, thank y'all for your interest Discord Server
General | Posted 3 years agoI now have a discord server~! :3
https://discord.gg/GnAVkffzZU [18+]
