"Well we have to bake a hero, Right?" asked Tharun, winking at Satvik.

'huh!! Baking?' was the only thing Satvik could mutter under his breath.

Suddenly a number of portals started opening and several deities walked out of them. Satvik had already met some of them during his previous visit but there were few new faces as well.

They all bowed their heads down before Pinaki and Tharun who outclassed them in ranks, both being a deity in separate class known as 'the Trinity'.

Tharun and Pinaki nodded at them with gentle smile and Tharun was the first one to speak, "all of you already know that this child has been chosen as the Apostle by Pinaki. But this is too great of a burden for this child to shoulder alone."

"We need to share our powers in the form of blessings with him so he could stand on equal footing with his foes" followed Pinaki's explanation.

Everyone nodded in unison and the first one to come forward was none other than Gauri.

She walked towards Satvik and simply caressed his head while muttering, "when you're at your lowest, you will never feel alone" and then she walked away.

'umm, nothing happened. Was it a dud?' Satvik thought to himself while inspecting his body for changes.

"hahahahaha!" laughed Tharun and further said " didn't we tell you that your status will remain locked till you reach adolescence, to ensure your presence remains hidden from your enemies. The day your status unlocks, the blessing will show there effects as well?"

'well that's inconvenient' thought Satvik but then simply shrugged his shoulders.

Then both the wives of Tharun came forward with a naughty gaze which made Satvik flinch and he thought to himself, 'they were meant for each other' after looking at their expressions which were similar to that of Tharun.

They both pinched either side of his cheeks and said "with this we grant you our blessings"

Satvik looked at them walking away while giggling, with a poker face.

Then came another goddess, she simply caressed his cheeks and said, "just let them be, sometimes they both act like children."

Satvik nodded while looking at the newly arrived Goddess. The Goddess had similar vibes to that of Gauri. The most striking feature was Veena, the musical instrument she was holding on to in her arms like a mother does a child.

'Vani, the goddess of knowledge' Satvik came to the conclusion.

While Satvik was deciphering the identity of the Goddess before him, she simply poke Satvik's forehead with her index finger and said, "knowledge can be the most powerful weapon if used well, Always remember that!"

Then she gave Satvik a beaming smile and went back to her original spot which was beside the Lord of Creation, Virinchi.

Devraj and his group arrived as well and said "we hope our blessings help you out in your endeavours." This group had Gods of all the natural elements such as fire, water, air, earth, lightning etc.

They were followed by a male deity whose aura reminded Satvik of blazing sun. The pride and confidence in his eyes was visible to everyone.' Without a doubt he's the Sun God, Aditya' thought Satvik.

The god spoke in firm tone "may you bring the light to others when they need it" and then simply walked away.

After a few more minor gods had granted Satvik their blessings they all vanished, leaving the Trinities and their respective wives.

The group that was left saw that Satvik's eyes were searching for someone. Then Tharun asked "whom are you searching for?"

Satvik cleared his throat and said "well I was looking for some other renowned gods like the elephant headed and all."

"Well the blessings you have are already sufficient and any more than this will make you a demigod and we don't want that, right?" Said Virinchi.

"If you become demigod then everything that has happened so far and all the planning will become unfruitful" completed Pinaki.

"And you might've already heard that, too many cooks spoil the broth, didn't you?" said Tharun lazily.

But suddenly as if another prank came to his mind, Tharun looked at Satvik with gleeful expression.

Satvik flinched and thought to himself, 'there he goes again cooking something against me inside his head.'

Tharun walked towards Satvik and casually put his arm around on Satvik and said, "We, the gods from Trinity, shouldn't bless other's apostle as the very essence and nature of our blessings repel each other. But there are always some loopholes to work around with, aren't there?"

Then he simply snapped his fingers and a peacock feather appeared before everyone and shot towards Satvik with a speed of light.

"Lord, are you sure about this?" inquired Bhudevi from his husband.

Tharun simply shrugged and said "well he'll be needing more reasons to support our cause otherwise he might get lost on his path."

Satvik looked at Gauri for explanation as she has been the only one looking after him but to his surprise she also had a mischievous smile on her face with her chin placed in her palm. After thinking for a while, with a light laugh she said, "this might get interesting."

And as soon as those words left her lips, Satvik knew the last authority he could depend upon had passed judgement against him.

"You don't have to act that dejected, it might be something that you might like in future" Tharun said with his puffed up cheeks.

"With this, the final preparations are done with. So Satvik, are you ready for your adventure in another world?" questioned Pinaki.

Satvik nodded.

"You will be facing might of the largest Theocracy and a God. So we made ensure that your birth takes place far away from their reach" said Pinaki.

"There's a surprise we have planned for you. At some point you might think we have caused you more pain. But, remember that, whatever happens is governed by the laws of karma" said Gauri with a gentle smile.

Satvik nodded, he had already came to know that these deities wanted good for him at the  end no matter what happens on the way to his final goal.

Pinaki Snapped his finger after muttering, "may you never loose your path. "

On Medini, in the capital of a small Kingdom surrounded by green lush forest, a woman who was dressed like a priest was sitting before a sculpture of a woman which was located in the centre of the city.

This sculpture looked as if it might come to life any moment, due to all the details that sculptor had made on their artwork or at least that is what others would think. The sculpture depicted the woman with her right arms raised, as if she was trying protect something or someone.

The woman looked at the sunset with almost tears in her eyes. When the dusk was replaced by darkness and no moon was there in the sky she only smiled while whipping her tears and muttered, "the time has come, Eliah."   

She stood up and before leaving she caressed the cheeks of the sculpture. She arrived at a building which looked like a temple with all the attendants bowing their heads before her.

Then one of the attendant raised her head and said, "Welcome back, lady Hailey."

Hailey nodded and spoke while walking inside, "let's recall all the Scouts and send summon to my Father."

"You want the presence of scouts and the king himself? Did something happened that needs presence of such people?" asked the personal attendant of Hailey.

"Yes the time has come for us to plan our revenge for what all we have lost" said Hailey and left.

After a while at an oval shaped table a meeting was being held with Hailey being the person in charge.

The people attending this meeting had tanned skin and two horns were protruding from their head just above the ears. These were the members of Rakshasa community.

On the other end of the table, the king was seated. He looked at her daughter who despite being a teenager, had lost her innocence due to her position as the priest after her predecessor was unable to continue her duty.

He then asked, "so they have finally made their move after so long?"

His daughter nodded and said, "we should be prepared to make our move as well.  The time is right."
