The Atlantean Gods
By: Jiaqi Cao
Prologue:
You’ve heard of the Norse Gods and the Greek Gods, but has anyone ever heard of the Atlantean gods?
Long before anything came into existence, the ancient Atlantean Gods were created by the Lords of Chaos and Order. There were 5 of them: Akeryon, Aslis, Myker, Pyrt, and Nemris.
Five ancient celestial beings that were tasked with watching over the actions of the other Gods that would come into existence at later times. They were given a home at the very bottom of the Earth’s oceans, protected by the large predators and hidden from humans and other Gods.
No one ever knew of them and no one has ever heard of them, but the Gods often found themselves wondering how the Lords of Chaos and Order knew about their activities and actions when all the deities of the world gathered at the Palace of Creation, the home of the Lords of Chaos and Order, for the annual Deities Meeting that took place every thousand years.
However, this year would be different.
This year, the Atlanteans would come to the meeting for the first time in history.
Very interesting! I have not heard about the Atlantean gods. I want to read more!:)
ReplyDeleteJiaqi, thank you! for sharing this piece. I am a big fan of Mythology and I must admit that I was ignorant about the existence of the Atlantean gods. I cannot wait to learn about what happens when the Atlantean gods appear for the first time at the meeting of deities. Please keep writing ,tell me more!
ReplyDeleteI'm not only wondering why the Atlantean gods are going to do at the meeting, but why they've finally decided to join! I also wonder how the Norse and Greek gods are going to take knowing that they aren't the most powerful anymore!
ReplyDeleteI am SO into this!! I would totally read this novel, it's got such an intriguing premise.
ReplyDeleteI love the title "Lords of Chaos and Order," and I love that you explain our ignorance of their existence by giving them a home at the bottom of the ocean. So creative.
I agree that this is very interesting! Your question at the beginning really works to hook me because I had not heard of the Atlantean gods.
ReplyDeleteNow you have to finish this novel. There are at least five of us that will buy copies. I am wondering if this is connected to the Chaos that is taking place in our world today.
ReplyDeleteYes, write the novel!
ReplyDeleteI will have Chapter 1 ready for the blog post soon so stay tuned!
ReplyDeleteThe intricacies of your imagination are impressive! This is an intriguing tale!!!
