'''Keresis''' | '''Keresis, Goddess of Vengeance''' was often seen as the avatar of plotting and revenge. Her realm embodied both passionate rage and the cold-hearted retribution. Her presence could have been that of a raging inferno, or a cold, inconspicuous plot; Her idea of a perfect act of revenge was the systematic destruction of the mind, body, and soul. | ||

[[ | She was once a Dreadlord of the Elder God [[Shaitan]] and fought at His side in the [[Chaos Wars]], but through various means gained the power to rise as a [[:Category:Gods|God]] in Her own right. Centuries after Her ascension, She was called to return the favour She owed Shaitan. She performed the Sundering, splitting the God [[Sartan]] into Shaitan and [[Apollyon]]. For years She embraced their cause of Evil, bringing Vengeance alongside Suffering and Oppression. | ||

In the year 617 AF, [[Bal'met]] betrayed Sartan and Keresis, sending his [[Dala'myrr]] and [[ormyrr]] to assault [[Mhaldor]] which they once helped guard. Unbeknownst to the rogue God, Sartan had a plan already in store. Drawing upon ancient infernal magics, he opened a portal to the plane of [[Nishnatoba]], forcing Bal'met through it with Keresis' help on the other side. Struggling to hold open the portal, he bid Keresis to escape back through, but with Dala'myrr halting her path at every attempt she failed to return before it sealed. Moments later her screams echoed through Achaea as her life was cut short by the enraged Worldreaver. | |||
