When the first Shane came to Slugterra, they met the Divine.
They became great allies, helping to put order in a land that had always been full of dangers and constant fighting.
They worked together, to find a balance between the mystics and the people.
Their allies were the Shadow Clan, who they made promise to always keep the land safe when it was clear that no Divine or Shane could be there.
This powerful bond was known as the Divine Pairing.
It was an unbreakable trust. A bond made of love between the two people. Love of family, of friends, or even future lovers.
This was an alliance that lived throughout the ages.
But as the West grew more modern, more engulfed by the technology and industrial life, few were left who believed in the Divine.
They became nothing more than an old wives tale, told to children.
But the Shane family knew better.
The secret of the Divine was passed down from Shane to Shane, so that they would always have an ally who would be able to move the caverns themselves to help their friend.
The Divine Pairing is always going to find each other.
Be it as family.
As friends.
As lovers.
Whatever fate would decree.
They will find each other.
