The Betrayal

Religious event

The birth of the twins Elhim and Delhim, who would become Adham and The Adversary.

Yesh and Oma continued to love one another, and one day, Oma was again pregnant. The Twins, although they are no longer known as such, fought even in the womb of Oma. It is said, that Delhim was already jealous of Elhim's beauty, even before they were born and he tried to strangle his brother with his mother's cord. Elhim, being wise and good, but also clever, merely smiled and hummed, and slipped away from Delhim's noose time and again. Three times did Delhim try to kill Elhim to be the only brother to receive Oma's love, but three times, Elhim survived. When they were finally born, the Twins burst from their mother's womb and into the bounty of the world. But Yesha saw the marks on Elhim's neck. "How did you get these my son?" he asked. And Elhim told him even as Yesha's brow darkened, for Elhim was an honest son. Delhim, of course, denied everything, but Yesha knew the truth, and in his anger, plucked the eye from Delhim and banished him from Yesha and Oma's presence. Elhim pleaded with his father to forgive his brother, but Yesha was not as gentle or as wise as Elhim. Since then, the Twins have been locked in eternal conflict, with Elham being known as Adham, the forgiving, and Delhim simply as The Adversary. No one speaks his name anymore, but they ward against his attentions with an eye-wink. He is always ready to tempt and corrupt those that value goodness and fairness, for he was denied the love of his mother and father.
