Solarion teleported into a room full of gods, all sharing the sa goal, for now. There was Mazu, the Mistress of the Tides, one of many water gods but undoubtedly one of the most powerful. She was skilled in fighting the undead, as her domain was close to the Eternal Dominion. Next to her stood Amoja, Flabearer of the Eternal Pyre, a goddess of fire. Then there was Atheos, a stone-turned warrior of incredible strength and one of the first to reach godhood after the extinction. Beside Atheos was Shargas, the blood-frenzied Ravager, a giant orc who had killed many gods since his ascension. To his right stood an archer in a green-brown cloak with a bow slung around his shoulder: Aeta, the Pathfinder. Next to Aeta was Maher, a blademaster who fought with two curved short swords.
The last two were Erynodor and Isis. Erynodor was one of the strongest mages in existence and his wife Isis, a healer who had achieved godhood.
"So, what is the current situation?" Solarion asked the group, it shouldn't be too good.
"It is fine; the humans got a significant buff and might be able to fight the undead in the tutorial," Amoja said with a smile.
"It is not fine," Mazu interjected. "The Eternal Dominion has mostly blessed survivors at the fourth stage, while most humans still reside at the third stage. They are not gaining power fast enough. Are you ignoring the fact that they got integrated with an entire planet of vampires?"
"True, but there are also the elves," Solarion said. The elves were their own faction, thinking themselves superior to everyone else. They imdiately began blessing their kind upon entering the tutorial.
"They haven’t responded to our ssengers, and the elves and the undead at the fourth stage have so kind of non-aggression agreent," Mazu explained, hiding her anger.
"Don’t they know the undead will co for them too?" Aeta asked confused, but the elves had always been a weird race.
"They do know, but they see it as an opportunity to reap more rewards after both sides are weakened," Solarion said. "They most likely believe themselves superior to everyone else since they were the first to achieve godhood."
"We need them on our side. The elves have already been gathering human slaves since the beginning of the tutorial," Isis ntioned; this can't continue."
"Indeed. When the humans have to fight both the undead and the elves, the future looks bleak," Erynodor agreed in a serious tone.
"When they’re already planning to reap rewards after we defend against the undead empire, they could even instruct the elves in the tutorial to attack the humans when they advance to the next stage," Maher added, worried.
"What about the other orcs?" Solarion asked Shargas, the only orc in the room.
"They also don’t want to pick a side. Most likely, they’re hoping for war too," Shargas rumbled with killing intent mixed in his voice.
"Could you bless the orcs on the third stage?" Mazu asked hopefully. She had already blessed many, but without the support of the other gods, it would be useless. She alone couldn't match the undead dominion.
"Yes, only one, but he is with the humans. The other orcs on that stage are already blessed by other orc gods. You know my standing with the other orc gods isn’t good. If I bless soone, they’ll just get killed," Shargas answered with burning hate in his voice.
"It’s not just the orc faction; it’s every faction. The witches, the Spider Queen, and the TechnoSyndicate," Solarion thought. And those weren’t even all of them, but probably the most powerful.
"This situation is getting out of hand. We need to prepare for war. If we let the Eternal Dominion gain this asset, they might beco the strongest gods in existence."
