Luthurn

Lore
IN THE BEGINNING

Long before Terra existed

Lutherius ruled in a void of nothingness [Inanis], and began to grow forlorn.

Thus, Lutherius envisioned the Omne in his mind and said "So it shall be" and all that he envisioned was created.

With this Terra began to form; beautiful green forests, crystal clear waters and unmovable mountains were formed under Lutherius's Will.

"This creation is truly Sanctus"

Animal lifeforms started take shape from thin air, beautiful flowers and vines began to grow.

Lutherius perceived this and said, "Yes! this is what I want, a beautiful world for I to live in".

Lutherius lived in this world for many years alone, but once again Lutherius began to grow lonely.

So he created another lifeform, one that had more intelligence and strength then animals that walked the land,

one that he could communicate to and one that would make more beautiful creations.

This lifeform was Vir, and he created Vir in his image, and from Vir he created Femina to accompany man and continue to mate and reproduce human life.

Slowly as time went on, the Vir began to be weak of spirit and body and infighting and corruption broke out and spread across Terra. Lutherius was hurt to see his creation do this.

When Lutherius tried to intervene and help them, they scoffed and insulted him and slowly began to forget their creator.

They created false Gods and idols out of clay, and began to do wicked things.

So Lutherius decided to pick a Vir out of the weakest ones and choose him as a Prophet to send a message to the people, the Prophet was Nohs.

"Nohs! Go to my people and tell them the message that I have given thou!".

Nohs went to them, told them about our Lord Lutherius and gave them a set of rules; don't practice unsanctified killing, worship Lutherius, live in peace with your family, have no other dieties before me andkeep my image true.

A few listened, but most did not. "Lutherius is nothing but a fairytale! We have our Gods and our ways" they told him.

Still Nohs persisted, and constructed a Sanctus temple on the Isles of Theolos.

The people grew tired of angry of Nohs and decided that they needed to kill him.

They then burned down his temple and all of his books which told his teachings.

They imprisoned Nohs, tortured him for five days and then exiled him infront of Lutherius's people.

After Nohs death, lightning smited the King of Lamonth.

After Nohs death, Lutherius emerged from the Inanis and went down to the death place of the Prophet.

"People! Why has thou gone against me, when you know what has been revealed to thee is the truth?" Lutherius said.

The people began to grow frightened, and attempted to escape knowing the might of Lutherius was upon them.

"I will lay my wrath upon thee and you will know I am your Lord!" Lutherius proclaimed.

"I will erect mountains that go past the clouds so that thy may not see loved ones."

"I will remove the waters that I have given thou from nations and lands so that those who rely on it may thirst."

"I will make the crops that grow turn to dust so that you may grow hungry."

"I will turn lands into deserts."

"I will bring in great cold weather and snow storms that will blow through the lands so that you will miss the sun that I have given thou."

"I will bring upon great plague so that your people may die a terrible death, and the precious life that I have given thou will be taken one by one."

"This is the recompence that you and your people will suffer and this is the punishment that I have given thou."

"I will bring ruin to your traitorous nations!"

Overtime people started dying in large amounts, even the righteous. Lutherius saw Femina, children and Vir starving to death or killing their own people for food.

Lutherius felt a weight of guilt and sadness in his heart, and felt disgusted by himself. He knew that he would no longer be able to go on after his disgusting acts.

Lutherius went to the Earth and undid all the punishments he did. In a moment of weakness he then decided to end himself, but he knew he could not leave his creation with no higher power.

"I shall end my current manifestation, but from I will sprout two new Lords who shall be my fingers and your Gods" Lutherius told them.

Lutherius then dissolved into essence, and from him two glowing orbs emerged. One bright and one dark,

slowly they emerged and began traveling on an elliptical path. From the orbs birthed Lord Stronin and Lady Ostrella.

"From their Divine blood I shall keep my image for the Omne."

After Lutherius's death aspects of Lutherius's being were spread among the Vir giving them different structures and dividing the race into many.

Aspects of Lutherius were spread throughout the Omne, Lutherius was now an intrinsic part of the Omne rather than seperate to it.
