Chapter 21: Learning About the Gods
"We should probably get serious." Alara muttered after a few seconds. Lukas nodded, remembering what Fenrir had said.
Somebody was out there with an item that could give godlike powers. Because Physsus was still running around and being a dick, Lukas was sure that the hero hadn't used the chalice yet.
But for long?
"Uh, where to start," Alara whispered, resting her chin on her hands. "Pantheons, I guess."
For the next few hours, Alara taught Lukas the basics of each of the pantheons, as well as each continent.
There were 5 pantheons in total, and each were said to have a different level of strength.
The weakest was the Ushin Pantheon, which was followed by peasants around the world of all races. Like the goblins of the Shindachi nation.
After that was the Halayian Pantheon, which was followed by the elves in Ikitochi, the neighboring nation of Shindachi. They were separated only by the Mountain, which spread from the north-east edge of the continent all the way down to the south-west edge.
Apparently, the elven side was luscious and green, while the goblin's and other inferior races side was this dry, mute desert.
The next 2 pantheons were fairly equivalent in strength, and both held many warmongering gods. The first was called the Hidokean Pantheon and was followed by the wartorn nation of Vahashka.
In a place once dominated by dragons, the people living there used their deep connection with the gods to eventually overthrow the dragons. Now, they ride on those beast's back as they wage war on the neighboring nation of Glacernia.
