The Gods

The Father and his four children

There are five gods: The Father and his four children, Daun (love), Lucius (willpower), Reba (war) and Asher (mirth). Daun spun the Milky Way. The Father forged the God Armor: the Amulet, the Gloves of the Infinite, the Helm of Insight and the Boots of the Celeri.
