A House Divided

by Chief Chilly

An attempt to expand on the details left out by Lord Death concerning the Grim Times, from the creation of the Demon Weapons to the DWMA's creation told through flashbacks and anecdotes. Features Eibon, King Arthur, the one and only Excalibur and more!

1. Author's Note

Okay, I think it only fair to warn those of you reading this that I have taken loose definitions of the 8 Powerful Warriors/Great Old Ones and run with them. Most of them I pulled right out of my posterior. But some of the events I detail are based on those within canon, so no flames over that please.

I decided to write this as a way of starting a long saga-type story, in preparation for my own works. The idea was also to put down my own views on the past and exactly what happened to cause the current state of affairs within Soul Eater.

There are eight meisters and eight weapons. Lord Death, Eibon, and Asura are canonical meisters, with Excalibur and Vajra as the only known weapons. For those wondering about the Black Mass, that fellow will be along as well towards the end.

Detailed below is a list of the meister and weapon pairs I have decided to use.

Meisters:

Lord Death, the Grim Reaper

Eibon, the Archmage

Merlin, the Dragonlord

King Arthur, the Holy Warrior

Loki, the God of Mischief

Gilgamesh, the Greatest Warrior

Tenochtitlan, the Stone Colossus

Asura, the Champion of the World

Weapons:

Mortem, the Deathscythe

Mimir, the Great Sage

Emrys, the Pendragon Blade

Excalibur, the Holy Sword

Laevateinn, the Cimmerian Blade

Enkidu, the Gemini

Quetzalcoatl, the Divine Serpent Spear

Bashura, the High Priestess [Vajra]

I have to take some time to write at least some of the chapters, and that will take time. I hope to have published the real story by February 12th 2012.
