History

The oldest scrolls tell tale of the origin of Empyereus' zeal, Far before the age of men Empyereus marched a crusade against the Fiends of Hell. Aided in this quest by his most trusted ally, his brother Rhaymeus the first God of Justice, the duo put the Hells to the sword in their radiant charge. Through Empyereus, victory brought an endless dawn to the cosmos, though in secret dark whispers led Rhaymeus to grow bitter and envious of Empyereus's deeds and might.
   During a battle Rhaymeus was tempted from a yielded fiend to use the power of the Hells against them, in his vulnerable state he agreed to a deal to spare the fiend in exchange for knowledge of arcane arts. With his new found strength he rivaled Empyereus' might and slew many demons and devils. This might slowly corrupted Rhaymeus, who would strike against Empyereus to prove he was superior. After a century, their duel was finished, with Empyereus, though greatly injured, was the victor. He would slay his brother and would vow vengeance against the Archfiends who corrupted him.
