"Shh, the gods are watching us."
"Then let them watch."
"Let them see how we turn this hunt into the greatest escape of all."
Poreia is the "Chosen of Heaven" selected by the Star God.
At twelve, the god told her:
"Become me, or watch them die."
Ningya held her sword before her. "You old fossil, try laying a hand on her!"
Shenqi silently unfolded her formation. "According to the data, our odds of winning are 0.03%."
Poreia smiled. "That's enough."
At sixteen, Ningya vanished in her arms.
Tears soaked the hem of the Star God's robe as the deity whispered in her ear:
"Shenqi is next."
In that moment, Poreia made her decision:
She would eat the gods.
On the eve of the New Year celebration when she was seventeen,
Shenqi fell from the gaze of thousands.
Poreia donned the crown of stars and smiled at the night sky.
"Teacher, thank you for teaching me my final lesson:
How to use the blade you gave me to end you."

"Does the new world need a savior?"
"No. The new world needs three lunatics to drag the gods from their thrones."
---And they're just the ones for the job.
"The first among us to 'die'..."
"Was actually the most important living piece in this game of killing gods."
Pola, Ningya, and Shenqi are indispensable to each other. They rely on each other and represent my favorite friendship. Their interactions with others are my favorite group of friends.
