About
This is a story beyond our world; one that takes place centuries after the fall of what we consider the Common Era.
God's experiment
The Creator is one that regrets the ordeal that their creations: the humans, were put through. God devised a series of experiments, based around what the humans called, the "Seven Deadly Sins", to attempt and create a balanced world for their creations.
author's note
I created this project to expose my thoughts and opinions of the importance of certain human aspects and their roles in society, but most importantly, where I wish I was, instead of this world.I did my absolute best to create characters that weren't too far off from people in our world today, but I decided that for the final stage of this experiment, I would omit any character that would reflect the more negative aspect of our society. Prejudice is not so easily fought against, after all.
Welcome to my empire
The Worlds
In order to create a more balanced world, God created a series of experiments in the form of time periods, each for their own purpose.
Our World
Circa 2000 CE to present. We live in what we call, the "Contemporary" Time Frame. 1969 CE, we put a man on the moon, 2006 CE we shot a craft into space, and nearly 10 years later, we had photos of Pluto. 2016 CE, a disabled man became a part of a project to have a transplant of another human head, only to cancel two years later. Technology is progressing quicker and quicker with movements putting children in school, Capitalism pushing inventors to invent.However, the man's constant need to be better, to be on top, his struggle for power throws the world into one last war— this one ending all human life.
afterworlds
In order to create their idea of a perfect world— a balanced world, they modeled the next era after a sin that affected the human race, one that took effect after the establishment of civilization.
SlothI modeled this world after Ancient Egypt— my favorite River Valleys at the beginning of society. God sent down their angel of Diligence: Emelin, to rule this world. It was a world that started out like ours, with diligent workers and a society that started off well. Digging up the ruins of our world, technology was implemented quickly, and the development of the society sped up.After nearly 2000 years, they were far ahead of our own technology. They did what we would've done: they started slacking.GluttonyThis world takes place in a land similar to classical China. God sent down their angel of Temperance, whose name was the virtue itself. The people picked up where Sloth left off, creating a world for themselves without sloth as depressant. People worked hard, partied hard, and cleaned up after themselves... hard.But, after mere centuries, society began to fall; a product of their gluttony. A civilization can't run on alcohol, after all.EnvyOliver, the angel of Kindness, with his brilliant emerald eyes, was the ruler of this world that looked almost like Greece, only made of pearl instead of marble. It was a world where people shone through on their diligence and temperance, where people worked hard, and due to the lack of obsession with alcohol, were beautiful.But beauty is merely a mistake of nature. There is no equality there. So, with their sober minds, the green demon took over their eyes.WrathWelcome to a world of nearly infinite technology, a world ruled by Grizelda, self-proclaimed "Neo-Genghis Khan". We lived in the skies alongside the clouds, in a world where all crime is overseen. In a world, so ruled by technology, why aren't we the ones with the prettiest faces? Why should we sit on these marvelous thrones when half the world won't bow to them?How dare they?LustDoesn't this feel familiar? Technology destroyed itself, so we're rebuilding, of course. The king's castle is a marvelous one, but oh, if only he didn't destroy the beds so often. Lilybeth almost didn't even blink at handing the world over to that beast, who didn't want to concern himself with his own heiress. Set fire to the palace garden and the world will choke on its smoke. Love? What are you on about?The word's obscure. Who cares?GreedWorld is still loading... For now, take some castle raids and golden plates! You'd think that being placed at the top of this government you'd get to choose what you want to do, but Lazarus still sighs every night, wondering how much more blood he has to shed in order to satisfy the materialistic majority. Enough, he's had enough.Just take what you can and run.
