No Second Chances: The Beginning Of The End Chapter 2
Advertisement
Many years ago, when the earth was still a civilized place, the life within would start to destroy itself because of the basic, yet the powerful feeling of greed.
The development of science reached a point where genetics could create life easily, so governments around the globe created "monsters" with dragon/dinosaur-like bodies which could resist most of the weapons created by mankind. These biological weapons started developing special abilities related to nature. There was a point where humanity couldn't restrain their instincts, and they broke free.
Humanity was so afraid of its own creation that we hunted down most of them by throwing special nuclear bullets, not even close in power as atomic bombs but effective enough to kill at least one of them. But there was something we missed, something that really matters after all: living beings adapt and evolve to survive.
The worst happened. Winged beasts that were immune to radiation and could burn down entire cities appeared, and even worst yet, humanity was not prepared.
The most powerful creation of the human race became the plague which decimated us, how ironic.
The ones who were still alive tried to find a way to fight back, but death awaited in every corner, so the survivors lived in fear and despair. Until one day a survivor who prayed to a god received a gift, a divine power enable to slay the beasts known as dragons. The gods made their move by giving a certain and small number of people the power to control their own creation, these people were called The Prophets. One by one, they gathered and fought the dragons with success. But after all, after the way human beings were slain by their own creation because of greed, we didn't learn the lesson.
The Prophets could have the power to slay man-made beasts but couldn't use their power against humans, so they were totally unprotected against the head-hunt of them which started with the thought of studying and possessing the gods' gifts so they could be used by everyone. Sadly the technology was not advanced enough to extract the power of the gods, so the inhuman tests on The Prophets ended up in death.

Then it happened again. A new plague haunted humanity and it was a new disease that affected both animals and humans, making them more aggressive and stronger, with time, the infected ones would transform into demonic-like forms. The plage was called "The Devil's Whisper" or TDW-A01.
In a desperate move to survive a new emergency, humanity started new experiments which included mutating ourselves by cloning and adding animal traits on us by breaking down two different DNA chains and enhancing the traits up to a point where they could fight Dragons as well, these were called the half-breeds, able to fight for survival.
Luckily, TDW-A01 was successfully contained by the half breeds and studied, it seemed like the half-breed were immune to the disease.
At this point in time, the world has suffered many changes which caused the formation of new continents and the movement of others. Earth changed and new human-like beings appeared, these had the ability to control the most primal aspects of the earth, humanity called it magic.
The human-like beings called themselves Elves. The Elves associated with human beings exchanging the knowledge of Magic for science.
At this point in time, the Dragons, an almost forgotten creation, have managed to successfully hide and reproduce silently, until the point where new species of dragons appeared, and there's another surprise, they were not immune to the TDW-A01. This created a monster among monsters, the first time it was seen, people called him death itself. The next plague, The Death Dragon, an extremely dangerous being, which could reduce to nothing anything with its dark flames.
The Prophets were almost extinct now, and the half-breed didn't stand a chance against it.
When the Death Dragon or DD showed itself, the world started to shake and dragons emerged from the depths of the oceans, caves, forests, volcanoes and landed from the sky. The very few Prophets who still lived tried to fight DD thanks to their kindness despite how they were hunted down for their powers. Unable to defeat DD, in a desperate move, The Prophets cursed DD with a divine armor that sealed DD inside a mountain and absorbed its vital energy.

After all this, humanity, with the help of the elves and half-breed could craft magic-enhanced weapons to fight back the dragons or at least to scare them away.
Many years have passed now, the world stayed in silence for too long while humanity and the other races such as half-breeds and Elves populated the earth once again. The technology, magic, and religion became more advance with time, and then when the last of The Prophets died, a new race appeared, the Dwarves, also many species of plants and fauna took over the once-popular cities in the world.
Human beings were becoming the less powerful yet the most raw-potential wielding race. With the dragons sleeping, the TDW-A01 in revision, and the Prophets dead, The Gods started to wonder about how powerful the different races would become, and without hesitation, the first god decided to land on the earth to become a ruler, and so did many other gods taking human-like bodies so no one would ever know about they being Gods.
(This is not the main story, this is just how the world is in the story, having said that, this is basically an introduction. I hope you guys like it, this is my first story).

Oracle by Default
Oracles are known as divine handouts passed down from the Holy Creator. There are times when evil exist and the Holy Creator wishes to intervene, to which the title of the Oracle is bestowed upon an individual to become the Creator's will in physical form. The Oracle's mission is to then gather heroes from different races to purge the evil. “For the reckoning that is to come, all are tested. Thou shall be the shadow of which valiant souls shine and guide thee through harsh trials. Till oblivion comes, do not turn astray but to continue down the path thou chosen to walk. Lastly, thou must not see eye to eye with, but against the world.” A mysterious man engraved a seal onto Kihet before saving him from being consumed by the flames. The seal seems to have a strong connection with the legends of the Oracle and a Tower with no entrance that suddenly sprouted near the village. Throughout years, his efforts to study the strange tower remained fruitless. Then one day, the village decided it was time for his friends and him to become envoys to look for the potential evil the Holy Creator detected. Before Kihet can set off on his journey alongside his friends, he has his own set of problems to overcome against the village. Note: It's slow. There is romance, but it plays a small role that I don’t know if I should add it in the tags. Main story starts at Chapter 12. Chapters before do contain meaningful context for the rest of story.
