Finders Keepers.
"Yudalf my dragon friend, how have you been?" Dylganihl said as he approached him with wide-open hands. The two giants embraced and laughed, their voices boomed.
"I have been fine my good friend. How is your father the monarch of Fire and Thunder?" Yudalf asked when they separated.
"That old man? He is doing well for his age. He has some problems with his hearing but it is manageable" Dylganihl replied. Yudalf couldn't help but laugh again, how could a world god be possibly deaf, that's just hilarious.
"Is that so? Probably got injured in his ear. I heard he attacked some people in the Immortal lands, they probably injured his hearing." He said when he could finally stop himself from laughing.
"You think so too? I thought I was the only one. I have to trust myself more" Dylganihl said seriously.
"I also heard that when the monarch left, those people found some things missing."
"What do you mean? Where do you even hear such things?" Dylganihl pretended to flare up except, he was grinning. "Are you accusing my father of distracting those people while I visited their secret realm"
"I wouldn't dare" Yudalf raised his hands.
"You shouldn't. I mean, it was all their fault. They laid claim to that secret realm, so father and I went to help test their defenses. Who does such a thing without proper defense? If, and I say if we did what you think we did, then we were simply helping out. We are righteous as saints."
"Oh, if you did do it. Do you have something to show for it? Like, say, star fire. I heard the secret realm is full of them."
Dylganihl looks around to make sure no one was around, then he spotted the representative he came with. The young origin god was coming to the meetup for the first time and he didn't know anyone, so he had been waiting for Dylganihl to be done with his greetings.

"Hey, Young one come over here" Dylganihl called the representative over with clear impatience and introduced him to Yudalf. After they were done he made the trio huddle up, then he brought out a shining round gem the size of a fist from his pocket dimension.
"What do you think?" Dylganihl asked in pride.
" Wow, just wow. This truly is a treasure. This can hasten law comprehension. It is almost a seed of power" Yudalf commented, he was truly awestruck by the physical manifestation of the power of a star. Sovereigns will rather be awestruck that someone could hold a star in his hands with such ease.
"Right, right? That secret realm had thousands of them, they were practically lying about."
"What secret realm?" Asked the young representative after having overcome his fear of the two powerful seniors of his race, his curiosity had overwhelmed him.
Dylganihl snapped to attention at his comment, then he replied solemnly "What secret realm? I picked this off the road when I was coming here. Who mentioned anything about a secret realm? You must be hearing things"
Now the young dragon was confused, he is an origin god with impeccable senses and memory, could he have been confused or truly heard incorrectly? "But you mentioned a secret" he tried to say, but Dylganihl interrupted him with albeit mock but righteous anger.
"I don't know what you're talking about"
Yudalf shook his head at his friend's antics. Dylganihl had always been like this, child-like, mischievous, and troublesome. He wanted to brag and claim credit, but he didn't want to admit he did it to avoid future repercussions. If he wanted to keep it a secret he wouldn't have brought out the star firestone in the public, among origin gods no less. As much as it was funny, he had to rescue the drowning young dragon.

"Stop bullying him Dylganihl, you will scar his first experience here," he said as he pulled Dylganihl away from his impassioned debate about finders keepers. They had learned about the law of finders keepers from the realm lord, but it was probably Dylganihl that believed in it the most. He had once commented that it has revolutionized possession laws and ethics.
While Yudalf started explaining what was going on to the dragon representative, Dylganihl stopped covering the aura from the star fire. The sudden shift in origin energy fluctuations drew the attention of the nearby origin gods, they soon flock over to him to examine the treasure. Dylganihl is in his element while he regaled them with the story of how he acquired it, which at this point as ballooned into an unbelievable battle of wits and mettle between the forces of good and evil. When he is done someone who has been waiting patiently asks him
"Will you sell that?"
"I think I should, that's a better idea than eating it. But the offer has to be tempting" he said after a moment of thinking.
Soon the small gathering devolved into an impromptu auction, there is a lot of arguing and yelling. From the side, Yudalf points out to the dragon representative "See, that's why they call him little Tyrant. He brings chaos everywhere he goes but the problem is that he can go almost anywhere if chooses to"
The dragon nods in appreciation, he has gained a closer look at an iconic character of the dragon race.
Suddenly everyone noticeed that the agitated ambient origin energy has calmed down. They all turned to look as the realm lord entered. He walks to the center of the throne and a majestic throne of laws form beneath him which he sits on. As the throne rises, the surrounding origin gods stop whatever they were doing and sort themselves out into a circle around him. They all make their thrones from the laws they have comprehended. Suddenly the hall is filled with flashing lights but the origin energy in the hall remained calm, anywhere else and space will start to crack. But all laws and powers in the realm must be respectful in the presence of the realm lord, so he can calm the origin energy that is just about to gallop out of control.
When he has reached his customary height he spread his majestic aura, he turns from an ordinary-looking high elf into a keg of explosive power. 13 rings of laws spread out from him, the surrounding origin gods can only release their rings to negate the suppression on them.
From the assortment of colors and aura, it can be noticed that there is an order to the sitting arrangements of the origin gods. They didn't sit about randomly but in order of their strength. The strong origin gods sit closer to the realm lord, that is within the inner circle. While the weaker origin gods sit away from the realm lord. After all, it isn't easy to sit comfortably around an origin god that is about to become a world god with his aura fully released.
"It is time. Let us begin" he said, then the tower shook and the barrier around it was taken down. He retracted his aura and continued.
"Welcome Messengers, Representatives, and Others to another origin cycle meetup. Like always we will start with the discussion, then the feast, and we will finish with the auction. You will not be disappointed."

Magician's Pact
A young boy with a special key finds himself caught up with an old wizard, an ancient prohpecy, and a possibly conspercy. This sounds like the sort of thing most childern would love to be a part of, but there are just three small problems. The first is that he is not the hero. Someone already got that role. The second is that he isn't a wizard. He is a Magician which complicates things. The third is that there might be a chance that the whole 'problem' might be comming from his end. Personally he never understood (or interacted with) the 'secret' magical world, but that becomes a problem when the magical world apparently has what his role is supposed to be according to their ancient book... and they are not to happy about him not matching their book. Still it shouldn't be to hard right? All he has to do is go to a school, learn some wizard magic, make sure nobody takes his key... also avoid dying. Thankfully he has had a lot of expereince with that last part and a bunch of Twig Twirling childern can't be too dangerious? Right?

Empires are rising and falling like never before in all three realms, and the dragons are pondering war. Gods are spotted more and old secrets are being revealed.

The Gazaarian Empire decided to conquer Amonis, and before he knows it, Han finds himself a pawn in a larger game- adventuring through faraway places, saving thousands, and battling mages of legend.

8 160The Bird and the Fool
Kesil is stranded very far indeed from his home. Despite a gift from the fair folk that allows him to understand and speak any language, he has very little idea of what’s going on around him (though he likes to pretend he does). But this doesn’t stop him from getting into trouble in the port city of Edazzo, in the ancient empire of Duri, and elsewhere, doing his best to find love, escape snares of ancient magic, and hopefully return home in the end.
