INTRO

"Gods cannot love as mortals do.

They care too much for what's due.

Their love is a sim, a recipe for doom."

Four Fallen Gods, Amara, Silas, Hollow and Silence, were casted out of Heaven for the mortal Sin of Love.

Silas, the God of Love, and Amara, the Goddess of War, only wanted to become human so they could love each other as mortals do.

They only forgot Mortal Love follows no rule.

What happens when Amara's heart falls in the hands of another?

The Hollow, feared Goddess of Order, and her soulmate, the Silence, God of Chaos, only ever wanted a child.

Not so they could care for it and raise it with tenderness. Heavens forbid, they never wanted to love their child.

No. The Gods made their son for destruction and misery. A monster all beasts would fear.

This is the story of how four Fallen Gods created the perfect weapon: The Destroyer…

They made Mikael, with all his rage and sorrow. The Beast who could burn down the world.

All so they could learn to love….

But what happens when their plans fail?

When not even Gods can control the forces of love…

Mikael was never supposed to be able to care for others. He was not supposed to meet Esther and Ansel, and they certainly were not meant to love him. Mikael was not created to be a tender father, nor a good brother.

The Destroyer was not made for love…and yet, he had more love in his heart than he knew what to do with it.

Amara was should not have fallen for Qetsiyah, one of the first mortal witches…and yet as her fingers touched Tessa's hand, Amara forsake all her vows.

And Silas lost his heart.

The Hollow and The Silence were never meant to care for their son. Mikael was a weapon. The means to an end…and yet, their boy was so beautiful, so kind…his love for them would be their demise…

But what does it mean to be loved a God?

What will the future hold for the outcasts and their unholy affairs?

And if Mikael tries his very best, can his loved ones be happy at last?

"In the end,

Love is the flames and the burns.

It's the curse and the hurt,

But, alas the sweet cure."

NOTES

(I understand this is a very unusual book, and I'm really glad you're giving it a shot. Please comment and let me know what you think about it)

THIS STORY WILL NOT FOLLOW CANNON!

The TVD Universe, with The Vampire Dairies, The Originals and Legacies has a very extensive and interesting lore as well as compelling characters.

Therefore, the Cannon is the beautiful foundation upon which I shall build this story. But I will bend, break and remake Cannon to fit my will at all times. The shows gave me the drafts of most of these characters, I plan to reinterpret them in a way that doesn't ignore the source material, but essentially looks at it with a brand new perspective.

The main objective of this book is to

1) explain The Lore of my series and

2) expand on Amara, Silas, Qetsiyah, Inadu (the Hollow), Mikael and some OCs, as characters in this version of the TVDU

3) Have fun with some crazy ideas.

IMPORTANT!

I did change Inadu, Celeste, Silas, Amara and Qetsiyah's back stories.

Inadu will have different names and face claims. One of them will be the Cannon Native American Face Claim and name she had in the series. The others will be different.

This is because I'm making her a Goddess, (along with Silas, Amara and an OC). All the gods will have the ability and necessity of changing their physical appearances.

I do not intend to erase her original ethnicity. I just want to expand it and make her a different kind threat. Not to mention, what I'm doing with her in this book is not much different from what the writers of TO did, which is to have her possessing bodies besides her own.

Now the main characters will be:

Inadu, The Hollow

Amara

Silas

Qetsiyah

Mikael

The Silence (Male OC)

There will be very important side characters such as:

Esther

Dahlia

Ansel

Kolga (female OC)

Niko (male OC)

Eli (male OC)

Yolanda Bennet (Amara and Qetsiyah's Daughter. OC)

And also some supporting characters, which will be Important but not as much:

Celeste (from TO S1)

Jane-Anne (from TO S1)

Vincent Griffith

Kieran O'Connell (Cami's uncle)

Mary Dumas (Jackson's Grandmother)

Jackson Kenner (not sure)

Mason Lockwood (not sure)

Cade (Not sure)

Sybil (not sure)

(I will probably add some more characters from TVDU. Mostly witches and some werewolves too. Not sure yet.)

The main characters will have all POV chapters (all written in the Third Person). Some of the supporting characters will also have POV chapters.

Important! This story will start with a very dark fantasy setting, then move to a more historical one. I'll explore mainly European setting, focusing on Ancient Greece and The Roman Empire, as well as a very Early Medieval period. It will not be very historical accurate, since I'll be mixing historical elements with supernatural and fantasy ones.

This story will be divided into 3 Acts. Each act will have 4 Parts within it. So this book will be hella long.

Act 1: Deals with the Gods as they create Mikael

Act 2: Deals with the Gods, Mikael and Tessa in the human world. Mainly in Ancient Greece and the Roman Empire.

Act 3: Deals with Mikael, Ansel, Esther, Dahlia, Ayanna and some OCs during their childhoods in the Viking Period.

Trigger warning: swearing, alcohol, suicidal thoughts and ideation, torture, child abuse, gore, violence, death, somewhat graphic violence, rape and sexual assault. I'll pretty keep most things in the less graphic side of things. Regardless, I'll always put warnings on the beginning of the chapters and no of such issues will be glorified.
