Inside all four of the elemental realm. A huge change is about to take place.
Haphaestus, the god of craft and the four elements, can be seen looking over the fire elemental realm.
"Finally I have my own personal space where I can do anything I want. I have gained complete authority over these four space as the god of the four elements. What should I make first ? Maybe I should turn these four space into a fortress to guard this world. After all I am it's resident in this life."
Currentlly the four pillars have replace the mortal realm as the main part of this world. Before, the mortal realm was the core which means anything from the sun to the underworld is able to exist by relying on the mortal realm. But now the four pillars have become of the core part of the world, everything from the mortal realm to the starry sky to the underworld rely on it to survive.
The four elemental space that Hephaestus is currentlly on is seperate space that exist by relying the four pillars.
In the fire elemental realm, Haphaestus can be seen sitting on a flying carpet. He is talking to himself about his future. "I've been thinking for a while now. As a god I am trully bound to this world. I will be throughly supress if I go to another world. I can only stay in this world forever and that is kinda boring. I want see the view that some of my past life's saw. I want to become a creator. I want to be able to forge worlds"
"I need to find my dao. My path to become the greatess. What is my path ? What is my core. Fire ? No.. it doesn't feel right... Chaos ? No.... Maybe the four elements I made ? Well maybe but it still doesn't feel right. What is my core ? Creation.. Yes I crafted countless divine weapons. These weapons have their own laws just like the world and some even have their own weapon spirit just like the will of the world. Yes taht is my path. The path of creation. The path to forge anything and everything !"
As Haphestus said so. Countless memories started appearing in his mind. A mortal blacksmith. An immortal Alchemist. A wizard specializing in creating biological weapons. And countless more
Haphestus saw a path. The path of a creator god. He deduce a way to create something called the god seed. Sacrificing an authority and turn it into a seed and grow it by understanding more laws and turn into nutrients for the seed. One law can become all things.
And so Haphestus started making the god seed. Since he wants his path to be creation. He sacrifice his craft authority. As he did that a seed was slowly being formed. With new understanding of creation from his past life memories. The seed quickly grew. Hephaestus also turn his understanding of the four elements into nutrients for the seed turning it into a huge tree. As the tree grew Haphestus body became stronger. He became more atune to creation.
The will of the world sense this and tried to get the tree born from haphestus under it's control but it didn't work. It appeared in the spirit realm as an the eye of heaven. However Hapheastus used his backup plan on the eye of Heaven unable to attack him. This anggered the will of the world but due to whatever Haphestus put in the eye, it can no longer attack Haphestus.
Soon Haphestus completed his transformation. It could be said that Haphestus have left his race as an olympian god. He is now a completely new god race.
While the will of the world can't attack Haphestus personally it threaten to make the gods attack him. While Haphestus doesn't really care about the gods attacking uim but after all one of them is technically his wife.
So Haphestus made a deal with the will of the world.
"I will turn my four elemental authority into four clones that will be trully bound to this world. These four clones will forever stay in this world and be bound to the four pillars to guard it. They will replace me as the god of the four elements."
The will of the world agreed to this plan and soon Haphestus summon two of his clones that have been mostly unused. Bellerophon and Pygmalion.
Bellerophon was the guardian of the gate of Haphestus to judge if some heroes are worthy to get Haphestus weapons. But Haphestus couldn't really care less about some random human hsing some of his trash weapons thta he made at the very start of his god life.
As for Pygmalion. He was a sculptor who made countless sculpture. But he usually just make them for mortal kingdoms making Haphaestus seeing no use for him.
Tiresias and Daedalus on the other hand are quite usefull. Tiresiaz serve as Haphestus incarnation in the underworld while guarding the Akastic Records while Daedalus is the ruler of the only kingdom of Dwarfs.
Haphestus decided to reused Pygmalion and Bellerophon to make two of the clones that will replace him as the god of earth and wind.
Haphaestus also ask for a new identity for Pygmalion and Bellerophon and the will of the world graciously gave Haphestus the identity of the dead god Uria and Zephir. After the authority transfer. Pygmalion will be known as Urea the god fo the earth who was suddenlly revive to guard the earth pillar. While Bellerophon will be known as Zephyr the god of the wind who was also sunddenlly revive to guard the wind pillar.
As for the object to replace the fire and water authority. Hepjaestus already got just the thing.
A while ago Hapheastus found an ice spirit born from the soul of a dead god who came when the great anomaly happened. Hapheastus have erase it's sentience and turn it into a divine artifact known as the water orb. And now it will be one of Hephaestus clone, Enki the god of water. He will be known as a soul of a god from another world who ead reincarnated as the god of water.
As for fire, Haphestus use the ash from when he completed nirvana and some other materials to make a divine Artifact that he name the sword of Ragnarock. And now it will be one of his clone, Vulcan the god of fire. He will be known as a new god born from the authority of fire that Haphestus gave up.
With all four of his clones read. Haphaestus initiated the authority transfer and soon the world once again change as four shout can be heard.
"I, Uria the god of the earth have vowed to forever guard the earth pillar until the end of time. To forever stay in the pillar and never move."
"I, Zephyr the god of the wind have vowed to forever guard the wind pillar until the end of time. To forever stay in the pillar and never move."
"I, Enki the god of water have vowed to forever guard the water pillar until the end of time. To forever stay in the pillar and never move."
"I, Vulcan the god of the fire have vowed to forever guard the fire pillar until the end of time. To forever stay in the pillar and never move."
All four of the clone of Haphestus turn themself into a beast and fuse themself into the pillar.
Since then there are now four gods who forever guard the four elemental pillars. The earth pillar now have a giant bear hugging it. The wind pillar have a huge griffin hugging it. The water pillar now have a giant snake circling it. And the fire pillar now have a huge gorrilla hugging it. Together the four gods are also known as the four sacred beast guarding the four parts of the world.
