บท 570: Origin story
While his second body was working on that Nicks main body was working with Hephaestus to upgrade the forging room to her standards or at least as close as they could get. As she quickly learned a vast majority of the resources that the gods had plentiful amounts of were in rare or nonexistent supply at this point in time. She had even gone to check places that they had previously used for storing things only to find out they had been raided or the things within had been ravaged by time and a lack of care in maintaining them.-
This didn't mean she came back totally empty handed however as there were a few spots that she kept secret from even the other gods or were inherently hard to find without prior knowledge of the location. One such place was her personal armory where she stored the things that she felt were too good for others or that the she simply didn't want to hand over. She had been clever in her hiding place for the armory and placed it between moments in time at a very specific location. Specifically the split second between night and day at the heart of Mount Everest.-
She didn't intend to keep these weapons and powerful artifacts though and used a spell that Nick wanted VERY badly because of how useful it would be. She simply called it dismantle which was a fitting name considering that it turned fully complete creations back into their base components without any loss at all. With this spell Nick could finally upgrade his wand to be able to match him with all the ways to improve it's original design that he had discovered until now. Daedric runes , organic smithing , starlight empowerment and soul fueling.-
Hephaestus was more than happy to dismantle his wand as well as she was quite curious to see him craft something as this entire time she had not yet done so. Nick of course saved the feather within the wand before she dismantled the wand as he didn't want to reset the progress the wand had made already. Instead what he was doing was more akin to placing a core in a new housing than anything else and the best part was that there was no margin of incompatibility between the old housing and the new one as they were actually the same thing.-
All the runes and enchantments placed on the wand by Olivander's ancestor vanished from the wood and the wand itself was returned to being a branch of wood like it was before it had been carved into a wand. Nick was surprised to find that it was actually a very large and sturdy looking branch that as is could be used as a focus for magic. 'I see , it was a staff blank originally but the ancestor wasted most of it to create a wand instead.' Nick thought in understanding after seeing this.-
"Where did you get this?" Hephaestus asked seriously as she stared at the branch intensely. "It was found in the tomb of an ancient wizard along side a note that said 'mans first mistake'. Why , do you recognize it?" Nick asked curiously as he had always been curious as to this piece of woods true origin. "How could I ever mistake the wood of THAT tree for anything else? Long ago when Zeus and the rest of the gods broke free from their progenitor and slew or imprisoned the rest of the titans they came together to create a single tree so that the world might be populated with lower species for them to rule over."-
"The tree did not bear a name as it's creators never bothered to give it one and it was from the tree that the first humans were born to resemble us gods. They however did not possess the gift of magic and could not making them flawed things which displeased Zeus greatly as what was the point of ruling over a race that couldn't possibly understand the gap between them and himself. In his rage Zeus commanded the first humans to destroy that which birthed them and they obeyed."-
"The tree had great power however and upon being felled unleashed a vicious power upon humanity to spite Zeus a final time , potential for divinity in a select few that was hidden due to needing a key ingredient to manifest. It needed a spark of divinity to be placed within the humans before it could appear. At the time no one knew of this and when the gods led by Zeus began to mate with the humans the offspring born were what you now know of as the first wizards. Humans born with the potential of the gods but flawed innately just as their progenitors." she spoke seriously.
