Long ago, there existed another reality besides the one that we currently live in. Just as there are countless others; there exists beings able to tear into the veil and jump from one to another. Sometimes only in certain circumstances are they able to. Sometimes, at the cost of their own life. The Origin of the Jigoku Ryuu began in one such reality that no longer exists after a strife of war. In that alternate reality, they were known as the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu and things were much different for them in this reality. Sadly, very few of the Jigoku Ryuu know of this or their true origin. To date, there are only two that do know; Raziel Kyouran and Velinda Kyouran.
Everything had begun in the heavens of this reality, which were much more different; far different than the heavens we know of. For under their reign, the reality knew of peace. There was no strife and there was no war at all. There never had been. Suffering was a concept that none in the entire universe knew or could comprehend. However, not all in the heavens were happy with how the universe was. This dark god among these gods disagreed and argued countless times. He bore a belief that it made them look weak and the entire universe with it. That the threat of invaders from another reality was always a constant threat. With his concerns and worries, he made a brave decision to defy them. Although, what this dark god didn't even realize is that these gods were as benevolent as they seemed. Even if he was a dark god, many chose to revere him over the others.
With his decision to defy the gods of this reality, he used his powers. His own frustration and anger to craft a new species in secret. An art that took countless moons to perform. Eventually a single dragon was birth by his own two hands, and he named this dragon who was born as a female Deaevidra. A dragon of death and destruction to bring ruin to this weak cosmos. Deaevidra was to be the mother to all of the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu. Who in time were going to spread a wave of chaos, death and destruction upon the entire reality.
It didn't take long before the very gods of these heavens learned of what had been done, this desecration of all they had created and the order they had maintained for all of these eons.
"Vognir. How could you betray us like this!?" One of the gods utter with such disdain for the dark god. "Betray you? I have told you senile old fools countless times that this time of peace, no matter how it was achieved will make all of our creations and ourselves weak. I created the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu to not only strengthen our children, but to create an arm that could combat any threat that comes at us from beyond the veil between realities!" He responded, which only seemed to infuriate even more of the gods. "Paranoid child. You may be the youngest of us and with the most potential, but there will never be any threat to us. We will cleanse these monsters you have created." Another had said, this one was feminine among them. "Heh. Try as you might, I created them strong and with the way they are reproducing down there. You'll be hard pressed. You'd be better off striking a deal with them and me. Or do you fear them that much?" The arguments with Vognir and the others lasted several days until one of the gods came up from behind and with a dagger designed to slay even the heavens. Pierced Vognir. Dark divine blood pooled from him, but before he passed away. He had a few parting words in his grief to say to his brothers and sisters. These words, for the coming years and war that was to come, were words that brought fear to the very heavens.
Foolish vain brethren of mine. You may have looked down upon me at disgust for my creations. The Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu. However, I believe that they will be the future. Dark Radiance. I shall give you to my children. Guide them to the future. They will need you to alter their destiny.
Once he had passed, he bestowed to them a power of his that he had developed over his long eternal life. A power to tear the very heavens asunder. He granted it to them, his children. His creation where upon her children from then on would have this power. Dark Radiance and this is what was to change the tide of the war that was coming to them. Of course, the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu knew this war was coming. For they felt it, they had lost the protection of their god, and they all looked up to the heavens. Waiting for the inevitable to begin.
The war soon began and the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu were ready for them, however the heavens greatly underestimated these dragonic creature. Their strength. Their resilience astounded them, and it was things that even Vognir did not give them. It was something they earned by their own free will to acquire. The heavens realized that if left to evolve further, nothing could stop them, and they'd become gods in their own rights. The power of Dark Radiance wasn't even what they feared, even though that is what led to countless of the heavens to fall prey to. Each battle, few of the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu had fallen. The heavens were on the defensive and they knew not what they could do, they couldn't even strike at the one that was always birthing these monstrous dragons. These destroyers of the heavens.
The war only lasted a few years before the last of the gods had fallen before the might of the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu. Without a single god to support the heaven's, they soon fell to ruin and each world. All they say was the heavens falling onto their own worlds, it was raining hellfire. From that point on, peace and prosperity reigned in the universe. Even the other races at long last knew true peace from the wrathful eye of the very heavens themselves. Little did any of them know though of what was about to befall them and their entire universe.
It was a slow and steady process, but worlds began to die and wither away. Worlds lost the ability to sustain themselves. As though the gods were sustaining the worlds with life itself. One by one worlds corroded away and with them, entire species were wiped out. None knew what was happening, why things were happening. It was Deaevidra who was the first that saw what was happening and what was causing things.
"Without the gods, no world can sustain itself. . . what can I do to protect my children, our race from staying alive?" She had all but asked herself, but she knew the answer to that question and with that answer. She put a plan in motion, not to save this universe and the worlds, but to keep her kin alive.
Forgive me for this my children. I do this for your sake. Live on for our sake and do not make the mistake that we made. Decide your fate for yourselves. This is your reality to conquer!
What Deaevidra had down was convert as much of her power as she could, considering she was the closest thing to a divine in the current universe. She forced open the veil between realities which was ironic. Vognir created her and the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu in order to prevent such a thing happening. She sent that overwhelming power of hers into another reality. In short, she had sent a part of her into the reality, but could not truly live within it as she was and she knew she was fated to die and whither away, but she was insitant that she would remain in the world until she could deliver her message and her blessing to those that are worthy. It was a few years later when the alternate reality faded away and crumbled under the corrosion. It had became nothing more than a memory to what remained of Deaevidra. If she was truly dead though, not a soul was going to find out until the day she was to meet Raziel and Velinda Kyouran after the end of the great war.
Deaevidra shattered the barrier between the realms. Her power, her blood, her very life essence passed through it and it ended up traveling into the depths of hell. The only place she felt a connection with the current heavens and she could also tell these heavens were much different. She allowed only a single drop of the blood she brought with her to drop in the depths of hell. That was all that was needed for life to flourish and this happened long before the demons that are known today appeared. One could say, this was done at the begining of time and space in this universe. A wave of great power tore through the entire domain of hell itself. In that moment, from that single drop of blood grew until a pool of dragonic blood formed and from this pool, ten massive dragonic eggs appeared as it dried up. These were to be the first of the Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu in this world, which were to later be known as the Primeval Jigoku Ryuu. The name Kaimetsu-Tekina Ryuu was to be lost into that fateful day when Raziel and Velinda meet Deaevidra. They were to be the forefathers and mothers of the Jigoku Ryuu, the strongest in their history. The first to control and quell their lust and bloodlust, until the Kyouran appear that is. This is the beginning of their story, their legend that shall be passed down through the ages as one of the greatest of dragonic creatures to ever exist. For good or bad, only fate itself could decide that.
