Forgotten Descendants

Chapter 15

Madeline woke up with a jump from her dream. When she opened her eyes, she could see Damon right there, smirking at her.

"I am still mad at you," Madeline said as she stood up from the couch in Duke University.

"Good, your sexy when your angry," Damon said, standing up too and walking to the table that is scattered with papers and books from their research.

"What did you find?" Madeline asked as she went over to Damon, who was now holding a leather bound book that must be a few hundred years old. It was around 400 pages, and the binding was really worn.

"Okay look," Damon said as he flipped the cover to the page of contents, "Right here, on chapter 16 it says παγκόσμιους κατόχους, which after using a very helpful google translate I realized it translated from Greek to 'World Holders'."

"And how is that helpful?" Madeline asked. She and Damon have seen a lot about "worlds" in the literature that they read, but they had all lead to nothing.

"Even though it translates to 'World Holders', the most recent translation is 'passengers'," he continued.

"Why did you not lead with this!" Madeline yelled, as she ripped the book out of Damon's hands.

"It wouldn't have been as climactic," Damon said with a shrug.

Madeline started flipping through the pages to get to the chapter she was looking for. It was all in Greek, so madeline did some witchy woo to translate it. She started chanting, and the words on the page started to change to english, and it read:

One of the oldest and rarest creature is that of the Passenger. They are the person created from two bloods of different worlds. They have the ability to travel to the worlds that there bloods are born. They can only travel to those two worlds. Some, if powerful can travel to those worlds at any given time line, may it be past or future. Some Passengers have been recorded to have premonitions of the future, yet the the visions are not definitive. If one does have premonitions, it has been said that they eventually go mad. Infant passengers can not control their power, which leads to the tradition of them getting binded at birth. After a passenger travels to one of their blood worlds, it takes a fortnight for them to be able to travel again.

The first recorded Passenger goes by the name of Desi Muth. It has been said that he is from the first world, the one of Adam and Eve. The story goes as follows:

A long time ago, God created a utopia, in which he put Adam, Eve, and other Humans. Adam and Eve were his pride and joy. He crowned them Queen and King of the Garden of Eden. When Eden was tempted to eat the Apple of Eden, God intervened right before. The Apple of Eden was the heart of the world, if she ate it, the World and her people would have died. God, angry with her disobedience, banished her whole kingdom out of the Garden of Eden. Sad, at how his humans did not work and how close Satan was from taking it all away, he set out to create other worlds, hoping to keep his good flowing and outshine the devil's attempts to destroy humans. God even created worlds out of the imagination of some humans, if the world was imagined out of love and creativity.

Adam and Even than lived in the "barren world" with their kingdom, starting over anew. Yet, much of the good has diminished. Adam and Eve had two sons: Cain and Abel. Abel was to be the next king, but Cain, filled with jealousy, killed Abel. Cain than took the throne. Cain had seven children, his favorite was his youngest daughter by the name of Selia. When Selia was of age, she fell in love with a man, and bore his child. This man was actually the serpent in disguise that caused the banishment of her kingdom. The child that was born was named Desi Muth. He was the first Passenger in creation because he was born of the blood from The First World and that of Hell. He was a troubled child, always causing evil mischief since youth. When he entered adulthood, he had a thirst to rule the kingdom. He heard stories of the Garden of Eden and an apple that would allow him control over this world. He found the Garden and the Apple. His father came to him and told him that this is just one in many worlds that he can control, and that it is his birthright to rule them. This started his rampage. It is said that Desi Muth is not restricted by his bloodline, meaning he can travel to all the worlds. Yet, even though he can travel to all, he still has to wait a fortnight for him to travel again. It was also recorded that he inherited some powers from his father, Satan, including possession, immortality, as well as thirst for power and death. Over the past eons, Desi Muth has taken over hundreds of worlds by finding each world's Apple Of Eden. If he held it, he controlled the whole world's movements, may it be that of humans of geographic incidences like volcanoes. The Worlds that he controls, but not destroys are called "Worship Worlds". If he crushed the Apple of Eden of a world, the world would die with it. The destroyed worlds are called such: "Mortem Worlds". It must be noted that each world has their own unique Apple of Eden. No two worlds share one. Currently, our world, now named "Prophet World", has still yet to find our own Apple of Eden.
