Epilogue: The Mockery of the Gods

Before the Flood: The Fall of Atlantis, Interlude 1: The Covenant of the Runt

In the opulent and decaying heart of Atlantis, deep within the Golden Palace’s Hall of Ten Thrones, Poseidon — the towering Nephilim ruler once mocked as the runt of his bloodline — faces a rebellion from his own colossal sons. The ten kings of Atlantis, each warped and corrupted by the forbidden covenants they made with the fallen Watchers, confront their father with demands for greater power, more bloodlines, and dominion over the rings. Their bodies already betray them: flesh fusing with armor, minds fracturing, bones petrifying, and spirits rotting — exactly as the ancient Orders foretold. With calculated fury, Poseidon issues a binding decree that will decide the fate of the entire island: the Tournament of the Rings followed by the Tournament of Rulers. Eight teams per ring will fight to the death for the right to challenge the kings. The ultimate victor will claim Poseidon’s throne as co-sovereign. Most chilling of all — the survival of Atlantis itself now hangs in the balance, bound by blood and mutual imprecation to the outcome of these deadly games.As the crowds roar in anticipation of the coming slaughter, the fallen Watchers watch with dark amusement… and the seeds of Atlantis’s doom are sown.A gripping tale of pride, betrayal, and divine judgment set in the final days before the Flood.
