Peryton Mythology Novels & Stories

“But Kolya is just a bannik.” “Perhaps he seems so, appearances-wise, but his bloodline speaks otherwise.” Anya's head swum. Memories of the old tales of the gods told round the hearth-fire by Dmitri surfaced in her mind. She recalled the thunder god Perun, king of storms, and his rival jovial Veles, lord of cattle and the leafy green underworld. She thought of the golden spring god Jarilo and his lover Morena, goddess of winter, death, and witchcraft, eternal enemy of Chernobog.

Yet, it was the worst cake Zen had ever created in history. Of course, the dungeon creator thought to include Lores in this dungeon. Zen was almost certain there was a hidden side quest somewhere. However, he did not have the luxury of time to explore them when he was getting carried to the vanguard members. “According to Greek mythology, when Medusa was slain, she birthed two children that belonged to Poseidon. The flying hogs we saw earlier were Chrysaor’s descendants. However, the boss is the actual twin brother of the flying hog. You wouldn’t guess they were twins if not for their wings,” Damian smirked. “After all, who would associate the beautiful Pegasus with the boorish Chrysaor?”

Hyperion continue. Rey listened intently, her eyes reflecting a mixture of curiosity and concern. "He believed that by embracing the primal forces of the land, he could reshape the destiny of his people. But such power comes with a price," Hyperion said, his gaze fixed on the distant glow of the tunnel ahead. "Deucalion's lust for power corrupted him, twisting his very essence. The dark magic he sought to control consumed him, transforming him into the first Lycan—a creature born from both the ancient magic and the shadows within his own heart."

“See, that is way better, slave. Now, given that you finally learnt who is your true master, I will treat you with a little story.” “…you see, little peasant, everyone thinks that Nepenthern went to Hades and asked him to give him the venom of Kerberos to poison Malleteagan. They thought Nepenthern did it as revenge to Endymion for defiling his little daughter Selene and to teach Selene a lesson…” she said with a sinister smirk.

Next, he told of the felines Minatious and Micya who took the form of tigers, though their children could take any large cat breed. Cullen frowned as he thought of the old legend. He couldn't recall who the rats or the bulls were. He would have to call Colin, who knew the myth better. Finally, he talked of the Phoenix. There had only ever been one pair who lived and died, only to be reborn. Mattieus and Annos were said to be the first. By the time he talked of the Moon Goddess and how the wolves devoted their allegiance to her in the original war with the humans, Jackson had opened his eyes.

Malakai, who stood in the corner of the room, nodded at her, letting me know that he was listening to what we were saying in the first place. Rheniera, Ned, Alaric, and Esther walked inside, and I watched as Esther nodded at her before handing her a pendant. Valerie took it from her and I shook my head in question, waiting to hear what she was going to have in mind. “There are legends that say that it started with fire. A phoenix is born on the night of a moon and sun alignment. The creatures of land and water stop when that happens, and the world’s balance, for fractions of minutes, changes. It will end with fire and the power that will emit from it is one that your pendant would suck in.”

“ The ritual passed on to your kind from the earliest of days? That accursed ritual that births the next Paragon?” “ The very same,” the human slave said, a smile slowly crossing his face when he saw Hera’s fear. “ As you know, long before Abnormals of today took power here in Ocrad, it was known by a different name, Daikhana. Absalon, the one you call The Paragon, ruled over the ancient humans with an iron fist; after all, we humans are mere shards of Absalon. Of course, he was defeated and sealed away by the founders of your Abnormal villages. Sintar the Dragon, Augar the Giant, Rudoka the Kitsune, Azrez the Naga, Ivaura the Hydra, Koame the Anansi, Eterna the Phoenix, Raithea the Siren, M

Those purist nobles were going to have a fit, but I had an excellent argument to throw at them. Most of the multispecies matings were true mates, fated by Selene, the Moon Goddess and Helios. Also fated by Nyx since it now included vampires. Nyx was an interesting deity. Most tended to assume that she would most likely be evil because she was the Goddess of Night and Vampires, but that was far from the truth. She was an ancient deity that appeared at the dawn of creation. A beautiful winged Goddess.

He tells me and I nod, waiting for him to continue. “There is a story, passed down through the generations of witches, about the first witch, Aadhya. She was the most powerful being in creation and is said to be the mother of all beings. It his her ancient magic that led to the evolution of dragons, and her heartbreak that created werewolves. The story says that the Blessed Mother and the Moon Goddess are sister deities, they worked together to breathe life into Aadhya and gave her magic so she could protect the earth and those who would in habit it.” He stops to draw a deep breath and feels for something in his pocket. He doesn’t remove the object, only reassures himself that it is still th

During this period, two religious concepts dominated in Egypt, behind which stood the dark ones. The theology of Heliopolis was based on the worship of the sun and represented the interests of wolves and werewolves, and the theology of Memphis on the worship of the earth, behind which in turn stood another powerful race of vampires. The creator god of Memphis Ptah was also the Great Father. It was said about him: "There is no father who gave birth to you, and there is no mother who gave birth to you. You created yourself without the help of any other being."
