Prologue
The tale started a very long time ago, perhaps when the universe was just as small as a galaxy, in a forgotten page of history, a syren from her world ran away from her home, from her wedding. Her beauty as the princess of her world was the dream of every male that existed. Her voice was much more melodious when compared to others of her kind. Princess Sygelea was her name.
Many had asked for her hand in marriage but one by one were turned down by the princess herself. Her father, the Lord of all Syrens, became worried of his daughter's future and grieved over the fact that his beloved wife was not around anymore to help him handle the dilemma. The Princess had ran away from her home when she was told that she had to marry the Lord of the Sea and that she would not deny her father anymore.
She came by the shore, just in time to see a huge ship leaving. Without thinking further, she jumped into the sea and made her way into the ship. Once there, she hid in the shadows while wandering around the ship. That was when she had stumbled upon a young man who was making his way to the kitchen for supper. Finding a place to stay for the nights of the journey in the kind man's room, she found herself falling deeply in love with him. He, too, had found love in the princess. Soon, their love was confessed.
One night the young man bedded her. She told him of her identity and the reason why she ran from her home. He told her he was the son of the King. They knew their relationship of different races was not allowed for the fear of a superior race but they did not care. Princess Sygelea was to pretend as an angel with the pair of wings that Prince Vestre gave her as he bedded her. They were soon married and the young princess was bearing a child. However, when the Queen heard the princess singing a syren song, her identity was known.
She was to be banished from the kingdom but the prince stopped his mother, pleading her for the sake of his child. Thus the princess was allowed to be in the Palace. But when she heard that she was to be beheaded after her child turns three, the young princess vowed that she would have her revenge. Although she started learning an angel's magic to destroy the Worlds, the maternal love for her child kept her from turning completely evil. The prince suck into her room one night and for the love and passion that was shown to her by her beloved husband she wrote a prophecy, saying that no matter how powerful the one who will destroy the Worlds will be, a close one will always have the power to perish the evil one.
A pair of young twins was born; their mother became the Grave Goddess as she vowed to be, cursing for the existence of Grave Goddesses as the bloodline continues. Three years later, the Grave Goddess killed the Queen and took over the Worlds. She killed her husband too, turning completely heartless. Many people and creatures of the Worlds died. Some from torture, some from starvation and some from becoming the Grave Goddess's slaves. Another thirteen years passed, her children who could not tolerate their mother's evil doings planned to take action. However they could do nothing to stop her.
One day, the Grave Goddess's daughter read the prophecy her mother wrote and confidence grew in her. The son lured his mother into Hell with the help of Lord Hades' grandfather. There, the daughter took her own life by using magic and turning herself into the silver fire of Hell. She did not want to live with the guilt of killing her own mother. Both the mother and daughter perished in the first battle of the Grave Goddess. Her son lived to tell the story. But it happened so long ago and so few survivors were left that not many believed the tale. The legend, the fable, the myth...remained as a mystery...
