The Kingdom of Everlong

The Kingdom of Everlong

by J. Khim

A long time ago, In the gloomy depths forests full of airy whispers throwing off courses of whirly-twirly correlated wind speeds, which were located on the front frontiers of the southeast hemisphere, lived mortals who inhabited the land of Ethridge.

Ethridge was a diverse nation full of dignified mythical creatures that dwelled amongst the motherland

alongside magical influences that fulfilled the landmark since its birth. The motherland consisted of

punctured coastlines that faced grainy pebbles of sand, yet the land was divided up by different

cultures. The weather conditions were virtually conditional. It was required to have complete knowledge

of certain environmental situations that would’ve left, otherwise like fellow Everlongs, short-lived

tragedies. To the extent to knowledge, Ethridge had not been completely discovered stated in the

federal book of Everlong. You would assume that the people of its nation would have more knowledge

about their native homeland. However, the history of Ethridge is one you should remember for the rest

of your life. 

THe history of Ethridge started with a tale of gods who were frequently at war with each other. Demmula was a feisty deity who caused nothing but trouble for the upper sages. She took after her fair share of ancestral heritage from her hall of fame; her ancestors were powerful gods who dedicated their lives striving to fight. Her features could not be compared to any human being. The previous fire goddesses beheld the traits of blazing red locks that blitzed in the darkness with whom she inherited. The goddess carried fierce amber eyes that could cut lightning bolts through mountains. The insidious goddess took great pride in her looks. Demmula followed modern fashion trends created by humans. Despite being a troublemaker, Demmula carried the fashion trends to the gods of heaven. 

As an infant to the age of her teenage years, there came a time when she was influenced by a certain uncle of hers, Vex, her fiendish uncle. Uncle Vex was a ridiculously strengthened god who was feared for generations, however that was all just an act. He was a goofball inside his heart. Everytime Vex was allowed to meet her, Demmula would fall into tomfoolery around the gates of heaven. Vex favored Demmula as much as she favored him as her favorite uncle. So often, Vex was willing to spoil and teach Demmula his powerful tricks of sorcery as well as the powers of creation despite Demmula being a fire deity. Once Demmula learned more of those abilities, she was able to demonstrate to her uncle that she finally learned something. Demmula gathered her book called Everlong from the shrine of depths and began her findings. 

With the mighty hands of the goddess, she brought forth the divining tropical seasons of the land. Fruitful trees were implanted near the sandy shores that would be full of peaches and apples to harvest. Sprouts of vegetation grew into the roots of the soil. Then, a succession of freshness was brought next to the open paves that gushed forth from steep rocks that spurred water of joy trickling down at a fast pace. A vast and deep oceanic area would not be complete without sea creatures. The goddess decided this was enough for a change and moved on to the next creation. The goddess proceeded to place down a fit block of icy land nearby the tropical climate. This icy atmosphere was the complete opposite of the tropical beach. To see piles of sleet, snow, and ice gathered together for the grounding next to an array of snow mountains that any being could climb. The goddess believed that she had finished the land of ice and moved to the next. From the witch’s craft, the goddess collected the crushed bones of dust plated onto dry land to create deserts. Vex was invested in the creation of the new kingdom and knew he picked the right person. However, another god watching behind the scenes, Shibbu, known as Knight of Light was jealous of Demmula’s powers. He appeared with his suit of armor and challenged her to fight him for the strive of power. Demmula loved fighting and would often fight fiendish villains from evil realms. She agreed to accept his challenge but as time went on, duels between the two would nevertheless stop. The fair knight of light never won any of the 1,006 battles that he requested throughout the years. 

As much as the two everlasting gods spent more time together rather than rivalry, prematurely the habits of war had started to change. Even as they would foolishly bicker day and night, there was once not a sound accounted for that would change the compatibility of the two. The fair Knight of Light once twilight on a dim moonlight starry sky, he sat on the edge of a cliff pondering at the starry stars. He sensed a presence hidden behind the shadows of splendor was none other than his rival, Demmula. Shibbu was shocked that the standing unknown presence appeared to be none other than his acquaintance when he used to be purely envious during his adolescence. Shibbu knew that in this right moment, he would finally confess his feelings; and so he did. Demmula was astonished after all the centuries of being together, she accepted his feelings and they became partners. The aftermath of the get-together was absolute. Demmula and Shibbu shared the bond of everlasting love and war. Together in the eternal bond of love, Demmula and the Knight of Light watched over Ethridge. The goddess and the knight gifted the land of Ethridge the Sacred Book of Everlong. The Sacred Book of Everlong consisted of rules that would continue to keep the world in equal order. It included the powers of gods that would’ve been handed down through generations and generations. This sacred book was handed down to the first ‘being’ in the Ethridge famously named Everlong the Great.
