【Beginning】
Taotie and the elfish Xian reached the City in the Abyss. Eliciting information with temptations and threats alike, they compelled Loki’s whereabouts from a dark elf. They crossed into the dark God’s palace hallway while avoiding the snake overhead and entered the door. Yet, their path was blocked by a handmaiden and a sorceress.
Sorceress: Who dares approach?
Hermit of Noble Authority: Move aside! I must retrieve power for Taotie.
The guards at the side stood uncared; they did not move to expel them and simply allowed the conflict between them to arise. The commotion awoke the evil God from its sleep and he appeared in the dark alley, glancing at Taotie.
Loki, God of Tricksters: No matter how hard you try, you are still not my daughter.
Loki, God of Tricksters: You are only her replacement.
Loki, God of Tricksters: Humans have seven sentiments and six desires.
Loki, God of Tricksters: Yet, you are only born out of my greed. How could you be perfect?
Loki, God of Tricksters: Leave. Go and live with the weak Humans.
With that being said, the evil God turned to return to the inner chambers and his figure vanished in the dark hallway. Taotie and the elfish Xian wanted to follow, but were stopped by the handmaidens.
【Before Battles】
Handmaiden: The God of the Abyss does not want to be disturbed again.
Handmaiden: You should return quickly to the realm of man.
【Enemy Dialog】
Hermit of Noble Authority: Each handmaiden of the evil God has their own unique powers.
Hermit of Noble Authority: I must decide upon each individual and defeat them one by one.
【End】
Taotie defeated Loki’s handmaidens, but after they caught up to the evil God, he was displeased. Using his immense powers, he expelled them from the abyss with a wave of energy. Taotie, cursed to a life of unfulfilled desires began a long journey of slaughter in the realm of man with the elfish Xian by its side. In a fit of recklessness, it joined the armies led by the aristocrats. On the battlefield, it slaughtered Demons but secretly, it assassinated Gods — both were killed indiscriminately. Humans called it the embodiment of hatred.
Taotie desiderated power with all of its being, but had been abandoned by the evil God. Despite the merciless release of its rage, its power was unable to grow further. Hence, it lacked the strength to challenge the stronger of the Gods. One day, it left the army in silence and none knew of its whereabouts. Some say that Taotie was engaged in a battle with the Noctimetallic Dragon in hopes of gaining the Soul Seed. Others claim that it had merged with the elfish Xian and dispelled its hatred; after releasing its demonic pneuma, it then vanished in the many realms.
