Ep. 1: The Ancestors
During the time of King Raka's reign he died and his son Benjamin succeeded him. After Benjamin died his son Eto succeeded him. Now Eto died and his son Gilead succeeded him. After Gilead's death his son Manoses succeeded him.
Now Manoses was about two metres tall and weighed about 45 kilograms. He was a Giant. He was a very arrogant and proud king. Yes he was fearless and bold but sometimes it turned into foolishness.
During the time of battle every King prays to his Gods, but during this battle Manoses said "Look at me, a man my size and with my strength why should I pray, I am like a god already and I need not to pray to any god but rather my people shall pray to me."
He commanded the guards and messengers to command the people of Rakaetopia, the descendants of his forefather and the same ones who worshiped the one and only God of Rakaetopia to now worship him and that any man who does not shall be put to death. So the messenger did as he said. Now for the fear of the king and of death the people worshiped him. Every Tuesday the people went to the palace and worshiped him like they did for God.
This made God very angry for it was written in their book of commandments that should they worship not any god but Him and they disobeyed him. But only one family in the whole kingdom still worshipped Him, so God's glory had not left the kingdom. God promised to choose a king from their family.
While Manoses was at his palace one day and the people had gathered there to worship him, God sent an Angel from heaven to go and slap him and take the crown away from him, and take the crown to the house of Gibel his beloved family.
So the Angel came down from heaven to the palace and to the king. The appearance of the Angel was like flames and he was very bright like the fire in the volcano. His presence was very hot as if the sun moved closer to the earth. The people feared him. The king thought he had come to worship him.
The king was angry because he did not bow. The Angel said "Why should I bow to such an unwise mortal" The king got angrier and commanded the guards to kill him but they refused because they were scared. He took a sword out of his guard's sheath and struck at him, the sword melted and burnt his hand.
The Angel then slapped him and took the crown off his head and said "Now God has taken the throne away from you and your family, but for the love of your fathers I shall let you keep your belonging and reign over this city till I choose my people who shall become royals"
And the Angel walked to the house the Lord so chose to be His royal people. The Angel knocked unto the door and surely it was opened for him. The family welcomed him with warm heart and the Angel was delighted by their kindness. Gibel had 5 daughters and 2 sons. The Angel saw his first daughter and saw her beauty. The Angel blessed the family and left but did not leave the crown there.
The Angel was on Earth 39 days and 40 nights and he went back to heaven. He went to heaven with the crown. He told God about Adhara the first daughter of Gibel and that he wanted to marry her. God got angry but he calmed down and told him if he wants to marry her he can but all his strength and power shall be lost.
The Angel agreed to it and asked God for forgiveness. God forgave him and blessed him. The Angel was now sent from heaven to Earth his new home, with an Earthly name Antonio.
Antony and Adhara got married and moved out of the kingdom Rakaetopia. But Gods mission was not done. Antonio and Adhara lived in a kingdom called Aporia. One day as they were there asleep, God appeared to Antonio and told him, "Even as you are now human you still serve me!" "Yes Lord, I do," said Antonio. God said, "I shall give you back your strength and power, not to fight in human wars but to complete your mission".
"Lord command me and I shall do", Antonio said going down on his knees. "Go across the seven seas to the lost sea there is an island there. There on that Island I want you to keep the crown and my treasures. The one I shall choose to be king shall journey to find the crown." God told him this as a command. God also told him he will become king of Aporia before he will embark on his journey.
One day, Antonio went to the kings house to greet him. When Antonio went to the kings house the king invited him for dinner. As they were eating the king asked him that, "I the king of Aporia and your God you claim guides you. If I asked you to choose one who will you choose?" "My king you are king but remember He made you king, He created you so surely Him I will pick", Antonio replied.
The king remained silent and Antonio left to his house. When Antonio left the king ordered his men to attack Antonio and his family. God told Antonio what the king was about to do and he and his family shall leave the kingdom to Eija the kingdom at Aporia's West.
They left the kingdom. The king was very angry when he heard this. After this the king sent a spy to find where Antonio was. The spy found out where he was and went to tell the king. The king attacked him at night and brought him to the kingdom.
On the execution platform stood the king, his royal guard and Antonio. Antonio was chained in iron and forced to kneel before the people. He looked down and saw his wife and children, his father in-law and brothers in-law. He looked up and said "Lord God Almighty look down from heaven to thy servant and delivereth me from the power of the sword". The king said "Ha Ha Ha, where is the God of Antonio, his servant now, perhaps he is asleep". And he spat on his face.
Antonio replied "My God is never asleep and he hears all my cries and also he heard what you said!"
Immediately after his saying the king ordered the guard to kill him. Finally as the guard lifted his sword the clouds became darker and the air became heavier. The sky was so low like the people could touch it. Then the guard charged at him. A great fire from heaven fell upon the execution platform. The king fell and the iron chain on Antonios hands, legs and neck melted. Antonio walked to the king with flames all over his body and picked up the crown.
The people bowed.
Antonio Journeyed on the seas to finally the last and final sea. He saw with his own eye Leviathan the monster of the seas, the killer of courage. No man can fight it, if every man even the bravest and the strongest when sees his horrifying teeth falls down with no courage.
