83 New Gods

Appearing on Donna, once again in my Vibranium armour, and Divine form, I approach the Lokisons' house, and knock on the door.

It was midday here, and the red sun shone brightly over my head. Hearing some footsteps, I turn my attention back towards the door, and smile as it opens.

Jormungandr, in his human form, is the one to greet me. He was the one that looked the least like Loki. Brown hair, and yellow eyes, Jormungandr had a face and body built like Thor's.

Where Narfi and Vali were lean, Jormungandr was bulky, although with muscles. He was also tall, at 6'5. Narfi and Vali both looked like Loki, with black hair and green eyes. But Narfi was physically 19, while Vali was 15.

Well, they'll probably begin growing again once they're a part of Andalok. Odin's curse is already gone, but it will probably only disappear completely once they're Gods of a Pantheon once again.

As a snake, Jormungandr's size wasn't constant. He could get from a few inches long to literally cover Earth. He couldn't do that to Donna, though. His size maxed out at Earth's equator, for some Magical reason.

"Jordson." Jormungandr greets, opening the door and leaning back.

Nodding, I say, "Jormungandr. Could you gather your brothers within a few minutes? It is time for you three to become a part of my Pantheon."

Jormungandr stays in his spot, and asks, "Could we refuse to become your Gods?"

I smile, amused, and say, "You could, but you will become mortals then. Or die."

"What? How?" taken aback, Jormungandr asks.

"Yggdrasil is destroyed, Jormungandr. Your source of Divinity is no more. What do you think will happen?" I ask. Honestly, I expected them going back on their deal. They're Loki's sons after all.

Jormungandr frowns, but then says, "Fine. We'll go through with it."

"It's not like you have a choice, dear Lokison. And do be quick. We need to induct you to my Pantheon before the Energy blast reaches Induk." I say, taking a few steps back to wait for them to come out.

A minute later, Vali, Narfi, and Jormungandr come out of the door, and Vali asks, "So.. Father's dead? How?"

Seeing that even the two other brothers look interested, albeit resigned, I say, "The God Bomb. Loki stayed alive until the last moment, and only died when the final explosion happened, along with Baldur, Sigyn, Heimdall, Hela, and Thor. Fenrir died earlier, by the hands of Baldur. You'll probably see them all once again during the next cycle." if they're reborn, that is. I know Fenrir and Hela will be born, and so will most of the other Gods. But I know nothing about Baldur.

The brothers nod, not showing much emotion on their faces. I'll allow them time to mourn later.

With a wave of my hand, I create a green portal to Andalok, on Induk, and into the Throne Room. Taking a deep breath, I shout, "KALI! CHHAYA! IT'S TIME!"

As one, the two sisters teleport near the three thrones. Kali and Chhaya sit on their own thrones, and I join them in the middle throne.

Looking at the still standing, and staring Lokisons, I command, "Kneel!"

The three brothers do, dipping their heads down. I say, "Look up. We are the First Gods of Andalok. The Elder Trinity. This is Lady Kali, Goddess of the Moon, and this is Lady Chhaya, Goddess of the Sun. I am Theos, God of Induk. Before you can become a part of us, as the first of the new Gods, you will have to agree to a few conditions."

The Elder Trinity is a term we came up for ourselves, when it was decided to bring in more Gods. It was a good name, if I say so myself. And it will be even better when I abdicate my non-existent throne to one of my children.

"Didn't you have an agreement with Father that we will become your Gods? There was nothing about conditions." Vali, the more outspoken of the three says. He is 15, so I won't punish him for that.

Instead of me, Chhaya answers, and says, "Your father asked Lord Theos to add you three to the Pantheon. Agreement or not, that includes reassurances from you three. If you reject any one of them, sad as we will be to see you go, you will be shown the door to Midgard."

As sad as it was, it was the only option we had. Figuratively speaking, Vali, Narfi and Jormungandr are unknowns to us. I don't know them beyond the stories, and even that isn't much detailed. So, we have to be sure that they won't betray us before I add them to my Pantheon.

It's not like they have any other option anyway.

Jormungandr dips his head, and says, "We accept to listen to your conditions, Lord Theos."

This time, Kali says, "For 2000 years, you won't be allowed to leave Andalok, except for when it is to go to Induk, our planet. And even that will be allowed only when it is to keep an eye on the Andals, the mortals of Induk."

The three brothers frown, but have a short conversation with their eyes. Finally, all three nod, albeit reluctantly, and Jormungandr says, "We accept, Lady Kali."

Chhaya then says, "Once you're allowed to leave the boundaries of Induk, you three will spend at least 10 consecutive years carrying your duties as Gods of Andalok before you get to have vacations of a maximum of 5 years. The ratio stands for larger years."

This time, the hesitation is not as apparent as before, and once again, Jormungandr acts as the spokesperson, and accepts.

Now, it's my turn. I bring their attention to me, and say, "Lastly, there are two more conditions. First, you will limit the number of Demigods you have, to something manageable. This one is especially for you, Vali. 17 Demigods is not something you should have in one generation. Secondly, you won't try and cause discord within Induk by any means. Not even teaching other religions is allowed. Andalok is the only Pantheon of this planet, and it will remain so for as long as we are alive."

This time the reluctance is more apparent. Vali really wants to procreate, doesn't he? And the thing about teaching other religions is a genuine worry. Earth faced a lot of problems, and is literally the only planet with more than one set of Gods. Many of the problems could have been avoided if the Gods had just gotten together into a single Mega-Pantheon.

Once the three brothers accept, I close my eyes and call forth the Magic of Andalok. With the wave of my hand, I create a spear from the Divine Energy, and slam it on the ground.

The Lokisons straighten up, as I say, "Do you swear to uphold the laws of Andalok, protect Andalok, Induk, and its people, no matter the danger?"

"We swear." The brothers answer, as one.

"Do you swear to not conspire against Andalok, Induk, and its people or Gods?"

"We swear."

"Do you swear to keep all our secrets within Andalok, no matter the consequences, and no matter the state of your loyalty to Us?"

"We swear."

Smiling, I say, "Then rise, Vali, Narfi, and Jormungandr, as Gods of Andalok. We will talk more once you wake up."

Before the new Gods- but not yet of Andalok- can get up, I slam the Magic made spear on the ground. I make my eyes glow green with power, and as one, the eyes of the three brothers roll back into their heads, and they fall down, unconscious.

Summoning three trees around them, I cover them entirely in the wood of the trees, and start feeding them the Magic of Andalok. This will make them into Gods of Andalok within a few days at the most.

Looking at the trees in the middle of the Throne room, I say, "I should have thought this through. Could have at least placed the trees somewhere else."

Chhaya snorts, while Kali just laughs openly.

"Yes, you should have. How'd the War go?" Chhaya says, and I begin my tale of the War.

Manasi runs in from the room that held Sonny and the Ship, in the middle of my tale, and whines, "I wanted to be the first new Goddess of Andalok!"

This causes us to laugh once again, as Kali says, "And you will be, Daughter mine. These three are Gods. You'll be the first New Goddess of Andalok. If you pass your trial that is."

Giving the trees another look, I say, "I'll leave these three in your capable hands Kali, Chhaya. I need to go back to Donna. I just revealed myself as a Celestial to Odin, and right before he died he did something. The highest likelihood is that he informed the other Pantheons about me. I need to know what happened, and be ready for any problems."

Chhaya softly asks, "Should we expect War?"

I snort, and say, "Lets not jump to conclusions, Chhaya. Mother will come to Donna first, when she has some news. And I will be sure to inform you."

"Be careful, Theos." Kali says, while Manasi nods.

Chhaya kisses me briefly, and whispers, "Take care."

Smiling, I create a portal back to Donna. It was just my 6th year of staying away from Donna, but I was already missing it. Summoning the boxes given by Odin, I open the first one, the one given by the Dwarves, and begin reading.

Time to tackle the forging problems.

Back on Terra, the Council of Godheads tackle a big problem of their own. Sky Gods. Odin Borson, the Skyfather of a Pantheon just destroyed, and already forgotten by the majority of Gods, had given them a valuable piece of information.

Theos, the Son of Jord, Gaea, Izanami, Aditi, Danu, etc, was a Celestial. For days, the Council had sessions, debating what to do about the imposter God. Some debated attacking him with their entire force. Some, like the ever willing War Gods, offered to take care of him by themselves.

Only one, one of the very few who had actually met the Celestial, was silent. After many days of such pointless debates, Ammon-Ra finally speaks up, and says, "Enough."

At once, his word his heard, and every God there stops speaking. Even though he had abdicated his Throne half a million years ago, Ammon-Ra was still someone that was feared throughout the Pantheons. Everyone knew about the God Eater, and you didn't just continue talking when the God Eater himself orders silence.

Once everyone quiets down, Ammon-Ra says, "Like small children, you're debating over what to do. Did a single person here ask, is Theos actually an imposter?"

"What do you mean? Odin wouldn't lie! If he said Theos is a Celestial, then he definitely is." Zeus says, being the most vocal in the favour of an attack.

He had met Theos once before, when he came to Olympus demanding a battle to the death with one minor God, Andreas or something. While not weak, by any standards, Zeus had not found Theos a threat to him, personally. And so, he had allowed it, after gaining some favours from Gaea of course, and after listening to the reason.

Scoffing, Ammon-Ra stands, and says, "I've met the Celestial, as you call him. Theos is his name. I've seen him when he was a babe sucking on our mother's teats, and I've seen him when he was playing with the monkeys near our mother's home. Theos is anything but an Imposter."

As Zeus opens his mouth once again, Ammon-Ra glares at him, and says, "I am not refuting Odin's dying claim, but I believe that it's better to talk with my mother first. Unless you believe, Zeus, that Lady Gaea was fooled by a Celestial on her own planet?"

Scowling, Zeus backs down, and says, "Fine. Summon Lady Gaea then. Let's see her opinion about this imposter."

The other Gods agree to that, knowing that Gaea wouldn't like them deciding the fate of her son, if he is actually her son, without her being present. So, Ammon-Ra sends a message to his mother, summoning her to the Council of Godheads.

A/N:

Just FYI, in the future fights, he might hold back, and fight only as a God in some fights. No matter how much I depower him, Theos the Celestial is still an OP character, and only Knull, OBA, Gorr, etc are threats to him for now. So, yeah. I definitely made a mistake in making him half Celestial, but I'm going to stand by my decision now. Enjoy!

Thank you for your support!

Tata!
