In the vast cycle of destruction and creation across the omniverse, a wandering soul is fused with a cosmic treasure—granting it eternal reincarnation. Each life is a clean slate, yet echoes of past existences whisper in the depths of its soul.

This time, the soul awakens as Hephaestus, the crippled god of fire and forge. But he refuses to be bound by fate. Through deep meditation, he unlocks the forgotten power of Nirvana, sacrificing his fire divinity to be reborn anew—stronger, unshackled, and more than just a smith of Olympus.

Now, Hephaestus seeks the finest materials hidden across the world, forging legendary weapons and artifacts beyond the gods' comprehension. With each strike of his hammer, a new legend will be born.

Greek Mythology : Hephaestus, He who abandoned fire for craft.

Pandora arrived at the home of Epimetheus, stepping into his humble dwelling with a smile as bright as the morning sun.

He stared at her in awe—a woman crafted by the gods themselves. He had been warned by Prometheus never to accept gifts from Zeus, but as he gazed upon her, he could not bring himself to refuse.

"Welcome, my wife," Epimetheus said, taking her hands. "Let us build a life together."

Days turned into months, and Pandora found herself filled with joy. Epimetheus was kind, and she was happy.

But always, in the corner of their home, sat the box.

Pandora could not stop thinking about it. What was inside? Why had Zeus given it to her, yet forbidden her from opening it?

One evening, as Epimetheus lay asleep, the temptation became unbearable.

She approached the box, her fingers trembling.

She lifted the lid—and the world changed forever.

A great wind howled from within, dark shadows spilling into the night. Suffering, disease, madness, war, greed, death—all the evils of the world erupted, cursing humanity forever.

Pandora fell back, screaming. She tried to shut the lid, but it was too late.

Despite the horrors she had unleashed, Pandora and Epimetheus remained together. In time, she bore him a daughter—a girl with golden eyes, strong and determined.

As fate would have it, another child was born far away.

Deucalion, the son of Prometheus and a goddess, grew into a strong, wise young man. He inherited his father's fire, his intelligence, and a deep love for humanity.

And when Pyrrha met Deucalion, the two fell in love.

Unbeknownst to them, they would soon become the last hope of mankind.

Though Pandora's Box had unleashed suffering upon the world, humanity did not crumble. They endured.

Despite war, sickness, and greed, humans adapted, survived, and grew stronger.

They built villages along rivers, using stones and mud to craft homes.

They learned to tame the new mortal animals, as Prometheus had intended, using them for food, work, and companionship.

With fire returned to them, they forged tools, shaped metal, and began to master the world.

As they grew older, Pyrrha and Deucalion became leaders among men.

Pyrrha, daughter of Pandora, possessed a divine heroic bloodline from the fruit given to her mother by Hephaestus. She was stronger than normal mortals, with a spirit unyielding in the face of disaster.

Deucalion, son of Prometheus, carried his father's wisdom and love for humanity. He taught men how to build, how to reason, and how to challenge their fate.

Together, they traveled across the lands, spreading knowledge and courage.

As humanity flourished, Zeus sat upon his throne, observing.

"Even after I have cursed them, they thrive," he mused.

Hera, the Queen of the Gods, watched with different eyes. She saw something promising in them.

And as the gods continued their rule, a storm loomed on the horizon—one that would test humanity's existence once more.
