Scene 1: The Rebellion Begins
📜 SYSTEM ANNOUNCEMENT: ⚠ Unforeseen Mortal Uprising Detected. ⚠ Divine Suppression Response Initiated. ⚠ Survivor Forces: 217 Warriors.
The gods never expected them to fight back.
They thought the mortals had broken. They thought they had erased their will. They thought there was nothing left to resist.
But they were wrong.
Cassius Valerian stood at the front, sword in hand, eyes burning with purpose.
Behind him, the last warriors of Eldorath prepared for war.
They had no divine blessings. They had no prophecy to guide them. They had no guarantee of survival.
But they had a reason.
And that was enough.
"We do not fight for victory." "We do not fight for revenge." "We fight so the gods remember our names."
The warriors clashed their weapons against their shields, their voices rising in a war cry that echoed across the shattered land.
"WE ARE THE FORGOTTEN!"
And then, the gods descended.
Scene 2: The Divine Strike
📜 SYSTEM ANNOUNCEMENT: ⚠ Celestial Forces Deploying Against Mortal Rebellion. ⚠ Hostile Entities Identified: "The Forgotten."
The sky ripped open, and from the fractures of heaven, divine executioners rained down.
These were not the same arrogant gods who had laughed at them before.
These were warriors of the Pantheon, forged from divine steel, wielding weapons that had erased civilizations.
They did not speak.
They only sought to kill.
"Crush them."
The first wave of celestial knights struck the ground—and the battle began.
Scene 3: The Battle of the Forgotten
📜 SYSTEM WARNING: ⚠ Mortals Are Resisting Suppression. ⚠ Survivor Casualties Rising.
The first clash was brutal.
Swords met divine spears, steel shattered against celestial might, but the mortals did not waver.
Cassius led the charge, his blade cutting through golden armor, carving through the essence of gods.
Elyria called upon forgotten prayers, channeling power long abandoned, her voice a lament of defiance.
And yet, they were dying.
One by one, warriors fell, their bodies burning in divine fire, their screams echoing into eternity.
But they did not run.
Because they knew what they were fighting for.

📜 SYSTEM ALERT: ⚠ Mortal Resistance Exceeding Expectations. ⚠ Celestial War Council Convening.
Scene 4: The Defiance of the Forgotten
The gods were beginning to hesitate.
This was not how the battle was supposed to go.
The mortals should have fallen within moments.
Instead, they fought as if they had nothing to lose.
Because they didn't.
Cassius raised his blade high, coated in golden ichor.
"Look at them!"
His voice roared across the battlefield.
"They bleed!" "They fear!" "THEY CAN DIE!"
His warriors answered with a final charge.
And for the first time in history—
The gods stepped back.
Scene 5: The Gods Finally Take Them Seriously
📜 SYSTEM WARNING: ⚠ Mortal Rebellion Is No Longer A Minor Threat. ⚠ Deploying Higher-Tier Entities.
The sky tore apart again.
A new presence descended.
A being far greater than those before.
It was not a knight. It was not a warrior.
It was a true god.
One who had shaped stars. One who had written fate. One who had erased names from history.
And as it spoke, its voice drowned out the screams of the dying.
"This ends now."
Scene 6: The Last Stand
📜 SYSTEM ERROR: ⚠ Mortal Persistence Unprecedented. ⚠ Observation Level: MAXIMUM.
Cassius staggered, his body broken, blood dripping from his wounds.
Elyria knelt beside the fallen, her hands shaking, her prayers growing weaker.
The surviving warriors formed a final circle, standing around their leaders, knowing this was the end.
But they did not kneel.
Even as the true god approached.
Even as death loomed over them.
Even as their doom was sealed.
They stood.
Because they were the Forgotten.
And the Forgotten do not kneel.
Scene 7: A Name That Refuses to Die
📜 SYSTEM WARNING: ⚠ Unidentified Anomaly Detected. ⚠ Reality Distortion Increasing.
As the god lifted its hand, preparing to erase them all—
A voice echoed across the battlefield.
A voice that should not exist.
A voice that defied fate itself.
A whisper.
A name.
"Seth Valerian."
The god froze.
Cassius gasped.
Elyria clutched her chest, eyes wide with disbelief.
It could have been the wind.
It could have been a trick.
But they knew what they had heard.
And it changed everything.
📜 SYSTEM ALERT: ⚠ Unknown Force Is Interfering With Reality. ⚠ Reevaluation of Mortal Threat Required.
