Millions of years ago, during humanity's first existence, there was one who had it all, everything that he wanted. He had people who loved him, he had people who cared for him, he had people that worshipped him, almost as if he were a god. The perfect life if one may say, but suddenly everything started to fade away. First his lover, second his flesh and body, the world he lived in, and suddenly his mind. His soul was left in pure darkness. 

Within this darkness, a figure appeared to be glowing in the distance, bringing light to the darkness around him. The figure seemed to have feminine features, slowly coming closer and closer toward him. Suddenly it seemed that she was resting her hand onto his body, but he had nobody, just a floating soul in a blank world. 

"This is now your world." The voice said faintly. She pointed toward the darkness, nothing there but the endless depth of space. 

"You must think that there is nothing here but darkness. You are trapped in between the heavens and the human realm. Once your world is created, it is only then humans with lost souls will populate your world." She explained, and at that point, the feeling of her touch seemed to disappear, her very existence was fading. 

"If you find out exactly how you died, my dear friend. Then the gods will allow you back into the heavens." She said right before she began to fade away. "The Gods will try to control your world." She added, and then suddenly the glow began to disappear. "Don't . . . Let . . . Them." The voice stated before she finally disappeared. Suddenly the soul of the man began to form into a creature unlike any other. 

The creature was a tall like figure with a muscular build. He had large angelic wings with dark blue eyes that had a negative sign within. Once his arms stretched outwards a scythe appeared within his hand. His eyes at this point closed before tilting his head down toward the darkness beneath him, his own wings holding him upward. 

'This realm is neither human nor is it the realm of the Gods. This realm doesn't have a concept of dark or light, or night and day. This realm is mine to control.' He thought to himself while raising his hand. He had a few memories of how beautiful the human realm looked as far as who he never came to mind.  

'So how do I create this world that is mine?' He thought to himself, at that point he decided to imagine his own version of a world. As he was within his own imagination, his world began to form around him. A large castle that seemed to be at the edge of the world along with a city that wasn't too far from it. The city had multiple skyscrapers, small buildings, and apartments scattered throughout. 

The castle stood taller than any building that the city had to offer along with a path that led toward it. Suddenly it was finished, his own world with snow top mountains and rivers that led into wooded areas. Little did he know that the Gods had another plan in mind. 

The male creature opened his eyes to look upon the world he created. It was quiet, nobody in sight. He looked at his hands. A mirror spawned in front of him so that he could take a look at himself. He was something he'd never seen before, at least his soul didn't. Could it be that this shell was created from his own desires? 

'Who am I?' The male thought to himself, looking within the mirror, glancing at his own wings and flapping them behind him. 'Am I. . A god?' 

"It appears that he has figured out what he could do. At this rate, he'd never want to ascend to the heavens." A female's voice stated. It was a group of divine-like creatures looking down on the male and his world. 

"That's the point. He may be the reincarnation of the creator himself. But I rule the God realm, and the last thing that I need is a shrimp taking it over again." A male stated with a deep yet menacing voice. 

"Correct. We will put restrictions on his world, and force his soul to split into the four personalities that caused him to despair in the human realm. With that assumption, we will add a few things to his world, and send anyone human soul to his world before they're able to come to the afterlife. If they're not able to pinpoint how they died from the clues we present then they will be cast to the Under Realm. " Another male's voice stated, he had a smart tone to his words. 

"That sounds like fun. We get to observe and make fun of them as they try to figure out a puzzle that cannot be solved. All because they fear their soul burning for eternity." Another male stated with a chuckle at the thought of toying with the souls of others. 

"Then we all agree. We will observe and control from the shadows." The menacing voice echoed. "Agreed." Multiple voices said at the same time. It was at that moment the God put on a smirk. 

There are four realms. The Human Realm, The God Realm, The Heavens' Realm, and the Under Realm. Each realm has its own purpose. For new souls, they start within the Human realm with other humans. Afterward, they were judged by those in the God Realm whether they would go to the Under Realm or the Heavens' Realm. The God Realm is for those with divine attributes. These Gods live and die just like normal humans, but they cannot be killed unless another God kills them. There is a God within the Under Realm that has been reincarnated as a human to start over again. 

That God's name was Lucifer. The only God that could travel from realm to realm at will. There was a gap in between the realms a gap that was now filled. Has Lucifer finally returned to claim his throne.
