Welcome to Gaia! ::

As the third world began, a new God came out of hiding. Tirani's son, Thurukhan found his father, and was revealed to the
Gods. Artek and Arlon made it over the worlds as well, as Artek created a small stronghold in the West. Nerull, his wife, and
Rystika created a large undead city in the middle of the world, in direct lining to the moon. It would be at the highest point
where Rystika would be able to approach the moon.

In the South, the strong elven build of Dorthalas was being created, protecting the southern portal. In the North, the other
portal was minorly protected by Kynera, and Neo, who lived in a small house near the portal. In the Northwest lived Boren,
and Iruven. Among then, aboded Ignis, Posa, and Mystra. It was there Posa began his library, of all the Universes knowledge
. Including a certain book Nerull needed. Dethrin was said to be lost, and of Serox, no one knew. Around this time a new child
was born. Of his existance, knew only Nerull, Milekkia, and Rystika. The new child's name was (Wow....I can't believe I forgot
that little rat b*****d's name.) One day, (Nerull's son) stormed Posa's library, destroyed it, and took the book that Nerull did
need. As Posa returned, after being destracted by an external matter, he came back to a flaming library, and the glimpse of
a shadow. Jeia soon disappeared. No one knew what happened to him, for he had remained on the other world, and held off
the titans, for the other Gods to escape. He and Nerull spoke few words, but what was said was meaningful. As Jeia and Nerull
fought side by side, Jeia told him he never meant for Nerull to get hurt by his spiritual deceiving. Nerull told him that if they
made it to the other world, it wouldn't matter if he was a vampire or not. It was there that Jeia said goodbye, and suicided
himself, wiping out the majority of the titans, giving Nerull enough time to get away. Nerull absorbed his brother's power and
was able to cleanse the battlefield. When he approached the new world, he said goodbye to his brother, and Jeia was never
spoken of again.

Neo grew up only seeing her mother a few times, but this didn't dilute her love for her. Everytime they did meet, she would
learn very valuable lessons. As time went on, Kynera and Neo wandered the world to try and see new things. One particular
event, involving Artek, was an ambush on Kynera, and the kidnapping of Neo. While being a stupid move for Artek, Kynera
singlehandedly destroyed his base, with minor help from his faithful Pyroy, Nar. This planet held a special place in Nar's heart,
for it was inhabited with Pyroy, like himself. Later in their lives, Narbar started a family on this planet, and they helped in time of
war.

In the East, a new port was created by Dorthalas, but it lasted nay a long time. After numerous attacks, the Southern Kingdom
became the stronghold against the titans. Dethrin revealed himself soon after, and after much confusion and questioning, it
came to be that Dethrin recieved a great power boost.

Rystika reached the moon soon after, and was able to leave the presence of her father, mother, and brother. After countless
run ins between her brother and Kynera, they all met, and decided it was now time to let Neo meet her grandparents. When
Neo met Nerull, something happened. A co-mingling of opposites. A strange power was created in both Nerull and Neo. In
Nerull, a light, holy power awoke, and to his certain evil charm was added a sense of remorse and love. While not destroying
his sense for destruction, he learned to take in to consideration those he loved. Neo, on the other hand, gained a strong,
brooding, dark feel. It taught her the world wasn't all fun and games, and that evil was always there. Watching. Neo took this
power as a sign, and decided to start fighting, with her Father.
---------

Dethrin called out to Serox. A final battle, to prove each other's worth. If Dethrin lost, Serox would once again rebel against the
Gods. And if Dethrin won, he would continue to be the Greatest living mortal. However, as time passed, it seemed as though
Dethrin was beyond mortals.

It was definately a suprise when Dethrin decimated the c**k Serox. As he finished him off, Serox was finally vanquished, and
one evil had been purged. Boren and Iruven, although crushed at the loss of their son, were happy that the terror had ended
there and then. The true question still remained: Was Arlon the only evil influence on Serox?

What was said to be a great power boost, was somthing beyond this. It was how the Gods had gotten thier powers when time
began. No one to date knows how this is caused, save two. Kynera, had learned of this through a glimpse of the past that he
had. He thought of it to be a glimpse of the future and asked the one he would know, The Lotus, who was in fact the other who
had known of the event that caused the gods to get thier powers. All of them had fallen from the moon to the new world.
This is when the First world had begun. This is what happpend to Dethrin to cause his power boost, except he was not a
regular mortal like the others were when they had fallen. To a degree, this makes Dethrin a god, though he is yet to find
out what his is the lord of.

The Lotus told Kynera that something terrible would happen to the world if Rystika were to reach the moon, and find out the
answers to many of these secrets and he knew the only way to stop her was to go to war with Nerull and his followers. But,
this wasn't achieveable to Kynera, for he couldn't go to war with his brethren, and uncles, and aunts and father and mother.
He knew that if Rystika were to reach the extent of her powers, the titans would decend to the world.

Thus begins the War of the Gods, against the biggest form of titans possible. They attacked numerous elven kingdoms, including
the East port of Azog Hen, and the Southern Kingdom, ruled by Dorthalas. Azog Hen fell quickly, due to being very
underpowered, but the Southern Kingdom held strong. In fact, they were leading in the war. As the Gods neglected to help, this
time around, two elves seeked the help of Nerull. They became Drows, and were seen by Nerull as small figureheads, to be
used in the future. These elves also served under Boren, as they were Noldorian like, having love of weapons, and smithing,
which Boren taught to all who wanted to learn.

An odious event did occur. The titans simply vanished. The attacks on the Southern Kingdom ceased, and Nerull relocated to a
spot, protecting the southern portal. However, something occured, that only Nerull knew about. And through that event Milekkia
took ill, and, like Nerull, she too gained the negative traits of a vampire. (What had taken place is still unknown today, save by
Nar. Don't know what the hell had happened, or I just forgot. Nar, add it in if you want, whenever the ******** also happened to have a craving for blood, which Kynera knew about over the years. Although never actually being known
to Neo, until it was discussed with Nerull, and Rystika, Kynera managed to sustain his daughter's condition. However, Kynera
never exactly knew what the problem was. One day, Neo fell strangely ill, and while he was trying to help her, she bit him, drew
blood, and was fine. Dispite being unaware of her innate ability to draw blood, Neo never actually figured out she was indeed a
vampire, as Kynera kept it a secret, and fed her the blood of the animals they would catch. When they did meet, Neo was taken
from Kynera, as a way to compensate for lost time. Kynera journeyed the world, rather quickly, but met many people along the
way.

Tirani was the most busy during these times, and didn't have much contact with the Gods, save Kynera, and Boren. He surveyed
the land, using up much of his time, and kept tabs on anything that looked odd. It was Tirani who discovered the Titan
stronghold in the North, and in that stronghold was Arlon, once again, working for evil.

Tirani also introduced his son, Thurukhan, who would now help around the world. However, it was in the south Kynera would
spend most of his time, on his journey. The long time he spent in Dorthalas's Kingdom, he learned great lore, and saw that
much of their history, he had lived, and fight amongst them. It was during a visit that a shrouded man came to them, a
foreseerer. No one knew exactly who he was, but it was rumoured that he studies Necromancy. And although Kynera never
had a direct connection with the only person he could think of, who knew necromancy, he did have a runin with him, a long
time ago, during Rystika's primary years of freedom, on the previous world. (Nar remembers the tower, with the Hole, and
inside was Necrosis. ^_^)

While Nerull created his new kingdom, he was able to bring forth his three minions once again. And noteably, a fourth, later on.
Necrosis was the first to come to, again, and Gul Dan, the Chronomancer. Zul'jin would come in later. A Baron Miternocht also
came into the picture, who is noted as the leader of the cagelings.

It would be here that Jeia's final words to Nerull would show their true meaning.

The Spirit Well, was revealed by Nerull, as the pool in which all living spirits returned to after death. When Arlon discovered this,
he was struck by an even deeper fear. Nerull realized what must be done, and he threw his weapon into the well. When it
reemerged, it was brought to him, as a scythe. The new embodiment, of the Harvester of Sorrow. The Scythe in the hands of
death. It would be now, where Nerull would fight his biggest battle. Against himself. Nerull descended into the Spirit Well, as
a shock to the Gods, and it was then the Lotus struck the Earth, again. The City of Dorthalas was ravaged by new, stronger,
more ferocious titans, and demons emerged from the spirit well, without the control of a dead Nerull. It was then the new
world was created, after the Drows of Boren and Nerull helped release the power of the Harvester of Sorrow to to the center.
A platform was made, housing the weapon. The spirit well shattered, and Nerull was lost forever. But a new being came to be.
Thanatos, the Embodiment of death. On the new world, in the centre, lay the Harvester of Sorrow, watched over by Milekkia.
She was crazed after losing her husband, and lover. The drows also watched over the scythe, and eventually, they brought it to
Dorthalas, in the south, where he placed it in a hidden chamber in his castle.

After a long while in the world, Neo grew up with Thurukhan, and Dorthalas. It would come to be that a being named Selwin
came to the world, and followed Neo, to try and lead her in a right path. When it came time for a certain choice to be made,
Neo made the right one, allowing the world to live on. Selwin was born as the child between Dorthalas and her, instead of
Thurukhan. Why this was the right choice, would only later be revealed. A love triangle grew between then, which in the end,
Thurukhan was thrown out of the loop. Neo still had love for him, but she loved Dorthalas more. In Eldenmur, did happen an
odd thing. When Selwin was 5, his powers were peaking at a level never seen before. Also, the God of Blood, appearing as a
red star in the sky, did shine bright, causing Thanatos to go into a berserk state. He attacked Neo, and Selwin could recognize
his energy, knowing what he was doing, and knowing what he couldn't control. Neo knew that Thanatos had one been part of
Nerull, and accepted the attacks. Almost near death, Posa, and Selwin, Posa's new student, confronted Thanatos, whence
Thanatos wanted to speak with Posa in private. Selwin was sent to his Father in the south, where he brought out emotions of
sadness in Dorthalas, reminding him of his past, and future. Neo also came, and together, they took the Harvester of Sorrow
out of confinment, due to the Spirit of Falathas, and there, Dorthalas became the new God of Death, making Selwin a full God,
Lord of Realms, the power to morph anything, anywhere. The opposite of time. But something weird happened, only noticed by
Posa and Thanatos, and namely, Selwin. Darkness emerged from the Sorrow, as it morphed into a sword. Posa confronted Thanatos, where he found out his
lineage, and the truth about the God of Death. While Nerull was his brother, he wasn't a God. Rather, the Spirit of the HoS was
the God of Death. Thanatos, was incarnated evil, from Nerull, but seperate from the HoS. When the wielder of the HoS dies,
the God of Death travels through the weapon, into a new host. Almost always someone close to the Gods.

Kynera and Posa had a long chat of past events, learning about the powers his grandson held, the powers Dorthalas now
wielded, and the powers of Thanatos. What Posa didn't tell him, was of the God of Blood, in the sky. That knowledge would
remain between Thanatos, Posa, and the boy.

As it is now, Dorthalas and Neo live, in the South, while Selwin trains with his grandfather, and Posa. Ignis, and Mystra live in
the far north, peacefully. Balsin, Rystika (Who visits Kynera once in a while) And Milekkia live in the centre of the world, where
the HoS was. Boren and Iruven live in the opposite of Ignis and Mystra. Tirani watches the world from the skies. Arlon's
location with his son, Artek, are unknown, and Thurukhan is helping Morwe and Mirwe raise their son, Tanir,
north of Dorthalas's City or Eldenmur.

Thanatos wanders the world, known only by Milekkia, and the other three (Ky,Po,Se).

During these events, a young Elf named Valdain suddenly appeared from the North. Confronted by Iruven, she seemed to
recognize the young elf, and revealed his name meant beginning. Valdain was confused, and was told to find Dorthalas,
and Kynera. When he arrived in Eldenmur, he was somewhat shunned by the elven king, and was in dismay. However, when
he met Kynera, his true history unfolded. In times of need, an elven race in cohorts with a corresponding God would choose
one of it's race to represent and fight under the Gods. Boren housed Humans, and his representative was Dorthalas. Under
Posa, Ignis, and Kynera lay the Elven house of Falathas, and Dorthalas his son. Valdain was a child of Iruven's, metaphorically
speaking. And in the Kingdom of Eldenmur would he find his place. An emmisary of Iruven's, set to create a Northern Kingdom.

In the Southern Lands, Dawn brings together Tanir, Selwin, Dethrin and Valdain, who because the Watchers of the World. Valdain, Watcher of the West, gained
a weapon from Posa, forged by Boren, and the rest split up. Dawn deceived Balsin to make Rystika decend, where Kynera and her had
a long chat. It was revealed that Rystika no longer loved Kynera, for she had broken his heart, by not being there when he fell.
Kynera couldn't get through to her, and it was Neo and Selwin who has to explain about Kynera's life long search for her, and his failure
of not finding her. He knew where she was, but it was impossible to get there. A failure of his powers, cause him to lose faith
in himself. Because of this, he devoted his life to make sure his daughter and Selwin flourished. While they had their own problems,
this seemed most important. When they departed, Neo and Balsin had a long chat, around Neo blaming Balsin for her father's dismay
and inability to find her sister. Balsin was shocked, and hurt by the false accusations, and he blew up on Neo. After calling her
a b***h and a whore, he exclaimed his true feelings, and his hurt by deception of Neo. He had thought they were good friends
and didn't think something like that could happen. He wanted vengance on her...something he would soon see was completely wrong.

The true mystery of the omniverse was that which ruled over the Gods......One, refered to as the blood god, that brought
out the lust for not only blood, but destruction. Posa and Thanatos had much to talk about.....but it would be now that the true god decended.

As the Red Star fell the from the sky, the earthen ground would temper the earth. All would fall under the watchful eye.

Or so the prophecy said. As Thanatos lost his life, after the grandest war the Gods had faced yet, it was revealed that Nerull had be resurrected,
by fusing his soul to the Harvester of Sorrow.

ADDED BY MYSELF: (A history/ chronicle of Noz's life)
-----------------------------------------------------

*Much time passed which I have no knowledge of and cannot summarize*
Not long after, Posa and Dawn had concieved a son. His existence would be hidden from the world until he had reached a stage of semi-maturity.
This child was named Nozdormzu, he inherited the deceased Tirani's powers and became the Lord of the Winds. Nozdormzu had a peculiar personality trait,
a quirk if you will, he was a low-degree shapeshifter. He had the ability to transform his body into that of one of his wind dragons in build,
but it was GREATLY different and highly noticeable. Being the son of the Lord of the Water and the physical embodiment of the Dawn, his dragon
form reflected this. As opposed to the normal color for a wind dragon (grey), Nozdormzu had a different color skin. His body was the most blatan-
t showing of his parentage. His body was a light blue color, a mixture of white and blue and seemed to blend into the sky as he flew.

Noz(dormzu) was out of contact and somewhat unknown to the gods for the first fifteen years of his life. Posa had trained his son for about five years
until, upon discovering his shapeshifting ability, the young Noz flew away from Posa. Posa looked for his son high and low for some time but never succeed-
ed in finding his son, perhaps the relative camoflage helped. Another power, unknown to the gods took Noz in, completed his training and contained him
until it felt he was ready to enter the realm of the gods. It was here he gained a full realization of his powers and shapeshifting ability. The power
released Noz on his thirteenth year of life, feeling that Noz was adequately prepared for life, and for the most part, he was right.

Noz quickly settled into a tribe of Wind Dragons, much like himself and ascended (in the usual draconian manner of violence and blood) to a seat of power
in the clan. This process took him two years to complete. By the time he had assumed power over his dragons, Noz had enterred the spotlight of the gods.
Posa welcomed back his son, and introduced him into the circle of the gods. The reception was warm by all the gods, except one. Neo, who had long been
silent during this time, brooding over her life somewhat, seemed indifferent to Noz, this perplexed him (as he was a creature of raw emotion and his mind
was somewhat undeveloped). His interest in Neolania would play an important role later. In this sense, his years in the dragon sanctuaries served him
poorly.

Noz had an interesting personality from the start. His human form physical description was simple, he had hard-cut features that were suprisingly
emotionless when he wanted them to be and even more surprisingly full of emotion when he wanted. He had jet black hair that was straight and
about three to four inches in length. He was around six foot and was muscular. On his chest, a part of his body almost ALWAYS covered by his breastplate,
there was a small patch of scales. These scales were found roughly in between the pectoral muscles and was in a diamond formation. It began as a inch by
inch and a half formation representing the permiation of his dragon form into all aspects his life. He had a six pack (cuz I don't) and was very lean.
It was clearly seen, from looking at him, that he had led a rugged, violent lifestyle. Across his back there was a long scar, he refuses to tell anyone what
it is from.

Noz began his interactions with the gods poorly. The instincts he had learned during his interactions with the Dragons served only to confuse him in
the world of the gods, a complex and emotional world. In this sense, the power looked over and regretted releasing Noz so soon, but Noz was a quick learner.
He made a couple of misplaced comments angering Rystika (and her side of the family, Nerull and Balsin especially). After this encounter, Kynera offered
Rystika his sword against Noz, something that would further play to Noz's instincts.

In the world of the dragons a challenge, a betrayal and an insult are all causes for fight. Noz interpretted Kynera's actions as a call to arms and returned
to ready his troops. The conflict culminated in Aurelius, Nozdormzu's Dragon General, threatening Rystika with an army at his back. Noz, who at this time
was in council with Dethrin/Boren/Iruven/Posa over a uprising, was confronted by Kynera, the god who loved of Rystika.

The series of events are relatively forgotten by Noz. Upon seeing Kynera, he was sent into a state of rage, preparing for a fight. He and Kynera dueled in
the arena Dethrin had set up for his people. During this fight, Posa did not watch, having never judged his son's fighting abilities, he placed trust in
Kynera to win. He questioned Iruven "Should I sit back and watch my son die?" (Or something similar) to which Iruven replied simply,"It is your choice."

Posa let things play out, and thankfully so. Noz was not defeated and killed by Kynera, instead, after injuring Kynera to the point **where he was forced to use his
desperation attacks, Kynera froze Noz in his place and forfeited the match. He proved his resolve to Noz, and proved the pointlessness of their duel. It was here
that Noz understood the idea of humbling ones power. It was also here that Kynera learned to be humble as well, in a different way. Due to these events, Noz and Kynera
developed a friendly relationship. The two were asked by Iruven and Boren to lead an army to suppress the small insurrection in the west. To which they both agreed.
Noz, after seeing Kynera as well as the other gods with their masterly crafted weapons, asked Boren to craft him one. Thus Boren began the crafting of Nozdormzu's
Scimitar, a sword he would later name Askandi.

The military campaign seemed trivial and only meant to foster friendly relations between Kynera and Noz, yet, they both took it seriously, something which
would save them both. Had they not properly assembled the army and led it correctly, neither would exist, the small insurrection had titans in the ranks.

After a bloody and hard fought battle in which Noz almost fell to the enemy, Kynera and Noz discovered the cause of the insurrection, a rogue vampire. This
brood of Nerull (wearing the black scythe) disappeared before their eyes, clearly the mastermind behind the event. After explaining this to the council,
Kynera and Noz took resolve to visit Nerull about this matter. Dethrin had beat both of the men there, Dethrin learned that Nerull's broods had grown
somewhat out of his control. Nerull vowed to help track down the rogue vampires before they caused anymore harm.

Noz and Kynera would not have so much luck with Nerull. The god of the dead was bitter with Posa's son for threatening Rystika earlier and chose that time
to torment the lad. To this effect, Nerull spread his palm and a tiny image of Dawn, Noz's mother whom he never knew well, appeared. Nerull then, using his
fingers, tormented the spirit while conversing with Kynera, angering Noz completely. At this point, Noz was sent into a rage he had experienced when
fighting Kynera. He attempted to use all his powers in order to eliminate Nerull's sanctuary by blowing away the clouds. Luckily for Noz, Nerull's basilisk
refused to allow this and prevented it. Had it not, Noz would have been dispersed amongst the world as his body disintegrated completely.

Noz then saw fit to leave Nerull's presence and report to the council the happenings, emphasizing the cruel treatment of his mother's spirit. The council
collectively saw fit to suppress the rising anger in the young god, but to no avail, he departed, angry as ever. He reflected in his brief, self-exile
and came to a deeper understanding of the world. He matured, and grew up more in that moment than most mortals in their lives. He was now no longer
a creature completely driven by rage and instincts, he became more like his father in some respects, thinking and pondering on his actions, much more calm.

Kynera then returned to the council, and discussion of a war with the Titans broke out. Kynera eventually stormed out after Neolania compared Nerull to
Kynera. During this time, Noz returned, somewhat calmed, to find the council in discussion and caught Neo walking away after her father. After a brief
discussion with his father about controlling his rage (to which Posa explained they all had found their own methods) he decided to follow the beautiful
maiden.

Neolania and Kynera conversed, Neo had shared her brooding feelings with Kynera, insulting him, accusing him of several things and stormed out. She ran
right into a waiting Nozdormzu, he was eager to help in some respects, offer some advice and whatever help he could be. The two discussed for a long time
at Mercutio's bar. After Noz had explained to Neo "This is not your burden to hold, not alone," Neo thanked him and kissed him, after doing so, she left
asking him to accompany her west to her mother's lands, Noz willingly agreed.

During this time, Zul'Jin returned, raising a city from the bottom of the ocean. He and his minions were a distraction that Nerull had sent in order
to get Posa away form his library so that Null and Uriel could steal a tome. Zul'jin and his summoned help attacked and destroyed much of Nozdormzu's lands,
something Nozdormzu would not find out for a long time. Uriel and Null succeeded in taking the tome and Uriel returned to Nerull. Null, instead of return-
ing immediately, attacked Kynera. This being was the compilation of Mystra and Arlon's spirit, Kynera was over taken and injured.

Noz and Neo get to the border of Rystika's lands, Belius, the only void dragon known to have escaped the void, welcomed Neolania. He summoned Rystika and
Balsin, both of whom eye'd Nozdormzu angrily, which was understandable after Noz's previous actions. Neo asked Noz to wait for her while she spoke with
Rystika alone. The mother and daughter shared words of regret, words of love and embraced. When they returned they seperated and Neo was re-united with
Noz who had been joined by Selwin in the interim.

Kynera, having been injured, made his way to the Northern pass, guarded by Dethrin. Dethrin set the injured god to Nerull's land in hopes that he could do
something to save him. Nerull placed a blood seal, slowing the loss of blood by Kynera and loaded him onto Shadow, the basilisk. Nerull and Shadow then
set out for the south, to find Neo, to save Kynera. They arrived in the middle of a heart-felt conversation between Neo and Noz.

This conversation, initiated by Noz, was brief and painful for both parties. It went something like this:
Noz: "Neo, I can't go back, I'm not going back."
Neo: "Noz *looking at him* Whats wrong? You can tell me"
Noz: "I'm just confused, I need time to work things out in my mind, I need to get away, away from you especially"
Neo: "*Looking hurt* From me? Why Noz?"
Noz: "I am tormented and haunted by that kiss you never should have given me..."
Neo: "You should interpret that for what it meant"
Noz: "I can't! I know you'll never feel the same way I do about you, this proximity is torment."
Neo: "*Speechless, eyes Noz over reading his emotions*"
Noz: "You... I... I can't do this anymore, your presence comes with the denial of my dreams as well as the reminder of that denial, I cannot
be around you *starts to step back, she moves closer but he avoids her touch* Good bye."
Neo: "Noz! Wait! *he pauses and listens, she looks like she is going to say something when Nerull arrives*"
At this point, while Nerull and Neo converse about saving the life of her father, Noz slinks away trying to fade into obscurity.

Kynera is presented before Neo and she heals him. At this spot, based on Kynera's words of a titan attack being highly probable, the gods hold a sort of
council. They decide to prepare armies for the war. Neolania slips away.

During the next month, the gods of the council begin planning their strategy for fighitng the titans. Nerull prepares Uriel for a powerful spell which will
change the drow maiden forever. Neolania spends the next month searching high and low for Nozdormzu, while Noz has spent the time assimilating into a small
human town. He humbly assumes the life of a normal villager to be as inconspicious as possible, but his future love would find him.

One day in the streets of Linberan (the town in which Nozdormzu resided for the month) Neo spots Noz. He elludes her for the time but later that night, they
run into each other and express their feelings. Noz redirects them into his house for the private conversation. Neo explains to Noz that he has no idea how
she really feels and that in truth, she is as taken with him as he is her. Noz is absolutely elated, they go to get a drink at Horatio's inn in Linberan,
(great place to eat actually, I recommend it to any low-profile travelling gods). Neo and Noz both get good and drunk and decide to leave. Noz quietly
guides Neo to a open field under the stars. The two have relations and sleep peacefully together, intertwined and natural as can be. (During their time
together in the town, the two feel a shockwave throughout their bodies, this is Nerull's doing, he infuses Uriel with the souls of Arlon and Mystraa. She
becomes the seductive goddess of wrath).

In the morning, Nozdormzu and Neolania return to the citadel of the gods and enjoy a drink. During this, Neo exclaims that last night was the best time they
had spent together, Noz inquires as to whether or not she remembers everything, she responds simply, "yes of course I do," and smiles at him. At this point
a romance has been born. The two are then seen flirting in the courtyard by Kynera who talks to Noz for a brief moment. During this conversation, Kynera
reveals that Nozdormzu's lands have been sacked and Titans inhabit it now. Nozdormzu is furious, for some time, his rage that he worked to hard to suppress
takes him over. He flies north, see the carnage and returns more rage-filled than when he left. It is at this time that Neo steps up to help her new lover,
Nozdormzu and her fly to a secluded island near Rystika's lands. Here, Neo calms Noz's internal rage and they lie together under the stars, conversing.

After more relations, the two have a deep conversation again. The first subject of discussion is Noz's scales. Neo finds them peculiar, but doesn't take
notice to them. This one comes to a point where Noz explains he is ashamed of his previous actions and would very much like to make ammends with Rystika.
Neo, seizing this opportunity, takes Noz with her to Rystika's palace. Here, with Neo's help, he apologizes to Rystika. Rystika forgives him, but she
does not forget his previous actions, hopefully time will help her with that process. Rystika then dismissed Noz and conversed with Neolania privately,
making sure that she knew what Rystika said was not to be told to Nozdormzu.

The two return to the citadel of the gods together, it seems everyone already knows of their love by the time they get there. Nozdormzu has set up a house
in the inner sanctuary and, having not slept in a week, he announces he will retire there for some rest. It is not his intention however, Neolania follows
him to the house, and lets herself in. He sleepily comments that "Now that you're here, I don't want to sleep," and the two share a bed together. Noz
only sleeps for about an hour before he wakes. He sets outs tea and breakfast for his love and leaves.

Noz transforms into dragon form and leaves, he is headed for Nerull's lands. Upon arrival, he has a cryptic conversation with a vampire huntress who
eventually lets him pass. Once inside, he is turned away by Miternocht who tells him Nerull is not in. Noz leaves and returns to the sanctuary of gods.

Little to Nozdormzu's knowledge, Nerull has turned Uriel into a vampiress and that night was their first hunt. The two arrive at Linberan and proceed to
feed Uriel's hunger under the watchful eye of Nerull's expertise.

Noz returned home to Neolania. He tries to quietly slide back into bed next to her, but she was awakened a few minutes earlier. She sleepily asks him where
he went to which he replies Nerull's, she doesn't pick up on it in her sleepful state. At this point, playfully, Noz tries to get Neolania back, he has
been gone all night and did not enjoy her company. Neo explains that she, although she appreciates the gesture, is uninterested. Her and Noz converse
about her dream that she had that night. In this dream, many people have died Neo explains, all from my inability to fight. Noz, seeking to comfort her,
swears to stay by her side and fight for her. She remarks that he is the first one to fall, to which Noz frowns and simply states, as long as you were
by my side. The two then discuss Dorthalas and Neo explains much of god love (that she learned from Iruven) to Noz. She explains Selwin and how she loved
Dorthalas. Noz does not quite know what to say here.

The conversation shifts to a different note. Out on the island while reflecting before disrobing, Noz told Neolania that he loved her. She had never
replied to the young god, this is one of the other actions to confuse him. She explains, quite saddenedly, that all the people to whom shes said those words
have met ill circumstance, or, in the case of Dorthalas, died. Noz then, rather heroicly states, "I'd rather live and die in your love like Dorthalas
than live never hearing those words from you." She remarks that its selfish for her to say it and he replies that he almost needs to hear it from her. She
asks what he needs from her to which he replies "Only for you to say it and mean it, the rest is trivial Neo, its all trivial." Finally, against the voice
in her head, she says it to him. They then raise their cups in toast to their relationship, a short lived gesture.

As Nozdormzu drinks from this toast, he is rendered unconscious. His only words are "get Posa," and he falls to the floor, in human form, with the sheets
wrapped around his lower body. Neo hurries out, running, sprinting and when she reaches Posa, she says two words and the two of them are gone, headed for
the house that Noz had erected for him and his love.

The two arrive and Noz is exactly how she left him, she is near tears, she fears the worst. Moments after she had said she loves this figure, he collapsed.
They lay him in the bed and step back, when they do this, she notes that his formation of scales has grown in size. She points this out to Posa who begins
to think on it. Before long, Nozdormzu awakes, stirring slowly, in much pain. At this point, Posa explains to Noz that his human form is being battered by
his dragon form. After having spent almost all his life in dragon form, Noz has spent the last 6 weeks with Neo and in the town in human form, his dragon
form is acting out.

Posa informs the couple that if unstopped, the dragon inside of Noz will consume him and he will be permanently in that form. Noz asks Posa if there is
anything he can do, Posa shakes his head, "there are two options," he explains "I can make a potion that will render one for permanent.. you will have to
choose, human or dragon." Noz looks at Neo, staring into her eyes as he tells his father, "then I'll become human."

Posa leaves to go prepare the potion and Noz leaves to go flying, the very thought of it soothes the pain reverberating in his skull. When he returns, he
meets up with Selwin and Dethrin. The three are informed to bring a small army to retake Nozdormzu's lands. They succeed and Noz regains the throne in
his lands of Tanaris.

At this point, Noz goes himself, to invite Neolania to come live with him. He explains to her that, should he leave his lands, they will fall to Titans, but
he needs to be with her. He explains that his lands are the front line against the invasion, something he regrets bringing her to and that if she would
permit him to be selfish, he would take her north with him that day. Neolania agrees and she is brought to the new land.

That night, when Noz and Neo are preparing for sleep in Noz's luxurious palace, Noz notices a very tiny bulge in her stomache. He remarks to her "Am I
decieved or is there another life in your loins?" She says in return, smiling to him, "Yes." They spend the entire night that night discussing the possible
future of their son/daughter.

Eventually a messenger arrives telling Noz that Posa has finished the potion to make him permanently human, and Noz and Neo leave for the citadel. Aurelius,
Noz's companion and general, is left in charge of the lands. They arrive shortly after in Posa's house. By this time, Noz's breastplate no longer
properly covers all of his scales it has grown so large. Posa hands his son the vial and tells him theres no turning back. Noz looks at Neo, stares into
her eyes and regains his resolve, quickly finishing off the vial.

What happens next is somewhat weird, turns out, Posa miscalculated and the potion had a side-effect. Noz's dragon form is not gone... it is simply forced
under his skin. His human form dominates his life now. From the pain of the experience, Noz is once again rendered unconcious, he falls into Neo's
outstretched arms.

As he awakes, Posa tells Noz he has miscalculated and that the potion didn't do what it should have. While still regaining his hearing, he doesn't fully
hear his father's words, and he instinctively goes to spread his wings, what results is gruesome. Because his dragon form is underneath his true, human
form, to spread his wings, the wings must come through his flesh. When he spreads them, they burst from his back, ripping two slits in his back, each about
three feet long and two inches wide. The skin and muscle covering the wings is then removed, quite forcefully and out come his blood-soaked wings. This
ordeal is incredibly painful and he retracts his wings but the skin will not heal.

Posa then knocks his son out and he and Neo go to work, trying to fix the damage just done. The two decide that Neo should put a regenerative charm on his
back so that, when he does spread his wings, the flesh will regrown when he retracts them. This time, when Noz wakes, Posa stops him and explains the
situation to him. He tells him that the potion did not fully work. He further explains by telling his son that his dragon form exists beneath his human
form and that, should Noz revert fully to his dragon form, he would never be able to return to his human form, lest Neo gathered all his flesh and skin
and enchanted it to rebind to him. Noz nods at this ill news and looks lovingly at Neo. She comes to realize what that stare means; I would die for you
if you only asked.

The two return north and repel many titan invasions together, their son is born one day. Noz suggests the name Vance for the young god, Neo likes it and
the new god has been born. There is a problem with Vance, he has no powers. He is fully immortal but his strength solely comes from his physical body,
there is no element that he governs and can garner for fighting. Noz is upset, however this happy union would not last.

At this hour, Titans breech the main city gate of Noz's settlement. He instructs sternly for Neo to leave before grabbing his scimitar and leaving for
battle. Noz's troops are quickly overtaken by the Titan forces, as he leaves the citadel and turns the corner, he confronts one that knocks him off his
feet. Noz instructs Neo to leave, she wishes to stay with her love but he asks her to consider their child. She leaves, and as she turns her back on
Nozdormzu, he transforms fully into a dragon. In this enraged dragon form, he is able to hold off the titans long enough for Neo and Vance to escape.

A few months later, a whisper on the wind tells Neo to come to the field outside Linberan, she willingly goes, hoping to see Noz again, alive after seeing him
go down under a surge of Titan forces. When she arrives, the place is barren, deserted, she waits twenty minutes. After that time, Noz lands behind her,
shrouded in the shadows of the night, for awhile he speaks to her without showing himself.

Eventually she cannot contain herself, she runs to embrace him, in spite of his protests. When she gets close, she sees her lover, he has become a full
dragon, however, it gets worse. The once beautiful, light blue color that his hide took has been tainted. The rage he conjured to survive the titans has
scarred him completely. Aside from the large cuts and scars that he sports after the fight, his skin has become covered with red blood. He explains what
happened after she left how he fought titans for what seemed like hours (what was in truth 20 minutes), thrashing, slashing and gouging his enemy only to see
more come. Eventually he says, the battle was pushed from the citadel and the titans lost interest, they left him alive, bleeding and cut. He explains that
he wishes they had killed him. She gasps and scolds him for saying that, but he is not to be consoled.

Neo explains what Vance has done. She explains that there is no sign that he is a god except for the head of a dragon birth mark on his right shoulder blade
a place he will never see. Noz, to this comment simply says, "good." Neo is taken aback, "what do you mean Noz?" she questions. He explains, "do not tell
him of what his father has become Neo. I would never want him to see or know of me like this, I love him too much, none of the gods must see me like this.
I only came to you because I love you. Tell them that I have truly fallen in battle and that my life is over."

As Noz finishes this statement, he flies away with his head down, knowing he will never be there for his son. Neo sees a large trail of tears crash to the
ground as she watches her love fly away. She begins to sob, but then she remembers what Posa said about recollecting his skin. She resolves to collect it
and return her love to his former form, a form he chose and sacrificed for her.
