 The twitters came from the darkness.
Around every corner, beneath every hall,
they were. Like flocks of birds, they swooped,
listening, and then they attacked.
Bodies, those lying among the arena seating,
vanished. Gods and goddesses disappeared as
if they had never been. The sky blackened.
The stars went out. All that remained was an
eerie silence.
Creation’s voice wept in the shadows. Tears
spilled upon the sandstone tiles, absorbed
to be no more. Not a single living thing
remained in the city of the gods. Creation
cried out for a hero.
Eris, in her wisdom, knew better than to
return. The goddess of discord had a plan.
And though her peers that remained may not
have agreed, she knew of only one way to
save her kind. A mortal from a tiny planet in
an insignificant solar system of a small blue
world. A gem among the stars.
