Sisters Of Fate II

Zero pulls three empty vials from a containment unit and hooks them to the Ether Tubes. Two vials were filled with Silver Ether and the third was filled with gold. By this time Loki made his way from the balcony over to Zero, his eyes wide at the amount of the purest Ether he had ever seen, if you could even call it Ether.

"What is this stuff?" Immediately after asking Loki began scanning with his eye, the eye reported back that it indeed was seeing Ether, but it was older than any of the ambient Ether on this planet. This made a frown grow on Lokis face, he was no child, and the possible age of this Ether made him feel infantile in comparison.

"Ether was discovered two thousand years ago give or take, but this stuff would have to be much, much older." Delta rolled his eyes at Loki, making him feel even more like a child before disappearing to another part of the forge.

"I forget how old are you Loki?" Zero asked while typing the six-digit series of numbers to make the wall slide back into place hiding the gold and silver Ether.

"Almost half a century why?" Zero shook their head in affirmation as if to say of course, while crossing the room to the three sleeping sisters.

"And what can you tell me about the history of Zanthora." Zero placed one vial into the stasis unit of the sisters, a partial amount of silver Ether seeped upward into the stasis field. The silver Ether swirled around all three until stopping on Sia enveloping her body.

"The history of Zanthora?" An eyebrow raised while the other furrowed, Loki by no means could be considered young his long life was filled with information acquisition, he dabbled in the secrets of the world, since death was almost meaningless secrets became as good as gold.

"It's been a while since primary school so bear with me, but Zanthora planet of the Red and Blue Suns. The planet's name itself originates from these two suns, the Red Sun Zan and the Blue Sun Thora. These were born after the death of Sol the lone giant, a star that in its death gave us our planets and moons we have today.

In the aftermath of Sols' death, Ether spread throughout the cosmos saturating the young unnamed planet in Prime Ether, this gave birth to the first inhabitants of this planet."

Zero put in another vial the silver Ether swarmed around like lightning bugs before settling on Nia, starting the repairs the body needed.

"And these first inhabitants were they human?" Came an unfamiliar voice to Loki, Delta had allowed him to hear him for the first time since Loki could remember.

"Uhhh no... No, they were the first gods of this planet blessed by the Ether." Loki managed to stammer out what he could still reeling from the shock of hearing Delta speak. Delta looked over Loki for a moment before back to the terminal he was working at, waving his hand at Loki as if to say "Continue."

"Right... these two gods born on separate sides of the planet created their own domains as they grew in power. One focused on creating the Beast that stalk the Ether the other on the rules that govern inside the Ether. This continued until their domains finally met, history being imperfect in nature depicts this in two unsure ways.

Scholars are split between the belief that this encounter was catastrophic and the two Gods fought what seemed an endless battle, while the other half believes they created an Eden together. The Goddess Sun Sol was a lonesome Goddess, so most people favor believing that her first children would want to be unified so this is the most popular telling of the story.

Either way, it ends with the merging of their domains and in this harmony The planet Zanthora begins. Even though no longer lonely surrounded by their pets in their Eden a desire for more grew in Thora, child of the Blue sun, So she looked to Zan to satisfy this new need. This led to the birth of the Seven sinful Gods, Children of Zan and Thora."

Zero and Delta exchanged looks before Zero put the last vial into the machine the golden Ether immediately attached itself to Tia working on her body with great speed.

"So tell me about the Children of Zan and Thora." Zero leaned against the panel arms crossed, Loki rubbed the space between his brow unsure what this history lesson would prove.

"Their children hold the title of God Sins for the betrayal of their parents and enslavement of humanity. Sirius the God Sin of Pride commanded the land and all its materials the physical bent to his rule. Pistol held the God Sin of Gluttony the understanding of the universe gave her endless control on probability or a scary understanding of it, but an endless need to grow her knowledge.

Abell held the title of Greed as a blank slate until confronted by one of his siblings was truly a master of none, but often better than his siblings as a whole. He collected the rarest of things even sometimes eradicating something just to make sure he had the last of it.

The title of dream weaver and the Sin of Sloth was Venus, her reign would be referred to as more hellish than the nightmare zone that humanity has today.

Tomass and Carna Given the Title of Envy and Lust, being the eldest of the siblings played the biggest role in betraying their parents. Though their kingdom was spoken of as fair and prosperous, they too were apart of the fallen, after the deaths of their siblings..."

   Loki paused for a moment partly distracted by the work the God level Ether was performing on the girls, limbs fully restored, missing organs replaced, and yet zero Ether scaring or discoloring.

  "Is the Ether giving them new bodies?" Deltas ears perked pulling his attention from the computer where he was monitoring the girls.

   "The Ether if low enough potency can replace and function in the place of almost anything, but Ether of this level of refinement gives back what was lost and maxes out the potential lost." The fondness in Deltas voice touched Loki, he had hardly ever had the pleasure to hear him speak so he was eager to keep him talking.

  "Potential lost?" Loki asked slinking to Deltas side, Delta leered over his shoulder and sighed.

  "As you know Ether permeates the world, and in certain places its found in more heavier doses. Depending on the area the Ether could be refined nicely as long as its being filtered through an ambient Ether Refiner or artificial one."

   "Right, I've seen them around the high end places of Neon City, giant machines pulling in Ether and then spreading it over the city. In places like the wildlands the Ether beast would be considered ambient Ether Refiners Right?" Loki asked not wanting the conversation to end.
