Tyler leaned over the thicker book first, reading the excerpt I had marked with a Post-it note out loud: The Elysian Line Status: Extinct Duration: Indeterminate - 1700s Origins: The precise origins of the Elysian Line remain shrouded in mystery, enveloped in the mists of time. Legend tells of the Moon Goddess bestowing a rare gift upon one of the earliest female werewolves, though the reasons for such divine intervention are subject to considerable debate. Some accounts suggest she served as a channel for the Moon Goddess herself; others posit that she experienced death only to be revived, returning with the remarkable ability to peer beyond the veil of our natural world.

With the establishment of the Republic of Corynthea, it became an exceedingly marginalized religion. Nonetheless, it still clung to its last bastion—the Pascal family. The Pascal family, custodians of the sacred artifact of the Divine Creed, the phoenix jade pendant, held an irreplaceable role in the creed's endeavors, making their involvement indispensable. However, 20 years ago, Laetitia, a Divine Oracle of the creed, committed a clandestine act by marrying a man. This act was deemed a grave taboo within the Divine Creed, leading to the leader's near annihilation of the Pascal family.

“No, I don’t think so. Why? What is it?” “It’s an old Pagan festival. It’s where Halloween came from – it was celebrated on the last day of October, and it marked the end of the harvest season. It was also the night when the veil between worlds was at its thinnest.” “You mean, like, ghosts and stuff?”

Their secret rites were certainly associated with heresy as this excerpt from the Edinburgh Evening Courant in 1738 shows: “This foul calamity, it is believed, was precipitated by the group’s close study of a most ancient set of scrolls, of a pagan nature, dating from before the birth of Christ and outlining beliefs and practices of a nature so diabolical that one Church Authority has claimed they would change the consciousness of every man and woman of Christendom should their message be proliferated.” The precise nature of the ‘foul calamity’ isn’t known but, as far as we can ascertain, one of the society’s magical rites must have gone extremely wrong, for a week later the Edinburgh Weekly

She, of course, had had no idea of her name’s origin. "Of course,” he continued, a mischievous smile on his lips, “the Greeks stole it, as they do everything. The true origin of Caitlin is actually Irish. It's a Gaelic variation of the old French name, which was derived from Catherine, which in turn, was derived from the ancient Greek. So there you go—full circle. Some people would attribute it to the Greek goddess, Hecate. She, of course, is associated with magic, witchcraft, necromancy, and crossroads.

The Egyptian Rite were not restricted to Egypt anymore; membership was open to all races and genders. The Earth and Sky Society were not New Agers. They were the descendants of Genghis Khan and were devoted to the reincarnation of the Greatest World Conqueror of all time. Before tossing them into the rubbish bin of bad ideas, know that Genghis was the largest single genetic contributor (via rape) to the human gene pool since the mystical Eve. To be a member you had to have a genetic link to ole Genghis.

The werewolf originated in the times of ancient Greece when their gods reigned supreme. During one fateful festivity, Lycaon, the son of Pelasgus, was in need of a meat to serve. Too lazy to go hunting for wild game or to slaughter a lamb, he served the Greek god, Zeus (who was the ruler of the sky and of all gods and mankind), a meal made from the remains of a sacrificed boy. This severely enraged Zeus. As punishment, the angered god turned Lycaon and his sons into wolves. They were to be looked upon by the rest of humanity as something to abhor.

The ancient Filipinos believed that every time there was a lunar eclipse, a giant dragon called Bakunawa was eating the moon and the only way to protect the heavenly body or frighten the dragon away was to make a lot of noise. Ecto of course didn’t believe in luck, whether good or bad; nor did he believe in gods and monsters. Being a chatbot and the only one of his kind, at least as far as he knows, he doesn’t think that Christ or Santa would have him on any list. Maricar was probably right when she said that Nate – Ecto when it came down to it – was an abomination and a child of the devil, not of the Christian God.

Azreal said as I faced him. “Really? You can do that?” I asked and he nodded. “Greek pantheon doesn’t clash with Christianity for certain reasons especially since they stole the humans Yahweh created before Christianity became a rival with Islamism.” Azreal explained as his nail grew. “So how does that help me?” I asked and he chuckled. “What was the origin of the first war, centuries ago?” Azreal asked as I hummed. “Witches were hunted down at that period so they got stronger and retaliated.” I replied and took a sip of the blood.
