The gods on which they rule

Olium was the first to step forward. His eyes remained calm as he looked toward the Entity, his voice carrying the dignity of an ancient ruler.

"I shall take authority over the Forest, for I was the first to rule among the elves. And I shall also bear the authority of Sacrifice. I have witnessed what must be given up for others to live."

Liam raised his hand, and his voice reverberated throughout the Consciousness Space.

"Olium. God of the Forest. God of Sacrifice."

The moment his divine title was spoken, the very realm seemed to acknowledge it.

Odir stepped forward next, his massive frame casting a shadow across the ground.

"I am Odir, the first among the lizardmen. I have fought with my life, my blood, and my strength. Therefore, I shall take authority over Bravery and War. Let every warrior who stands before death remember my name."

"Odir. God of Bravery. God of War."

Odir lowered himself to one knee.
