| + | The world was shaken after the second God War. The loss of life and amount of destruction grew beyond imagining, and even the deities of Ya’Ria became despondent. They could not reconcile themselves to the sheer numbers of followers lost to this War with the Mad God. Esmara’s power waned as she slowly lost touch with her worshippers. Her light looked as though it would vanish. | ||
| + | But a blessing came. Esmara found she and Vhundarus were going to have a child. | ||

| + | When Esmara found she was pregnant she was elated. Though half-human and half-god children were well known, no child of two gods had yet to be born. In truth, no one knew it possible. The goddess’ light brightened, and soon not only one child was born, but two. Esmara had twins, a daughter and a son. Both these twins shone with an inner brightness, though that brightness differed in nature. Esmara named her daughter Guideen, the light in bleak darkness. The son we know today as [[Darien]], the god of laughter. | ||
| + | All the gods of Ya’Ria blessed the children. The deities’ gifts to Guideen were unlike those given to her brother, for the gods could indeed see the nature of each child. They knew what this young goddess could one day stand for, and each sought to prepare her way. They allowed her the ability to move through both churches, light and dark, for no religion of Ya’Ria lacks hope. | ||
