Ametheon's loss of control did not happen in war.
It happened at home.
Valmythra's upper skies had grown volatile with his maturation. He had always controlled lightning instinctively — precise, deliberate, sovereign.
But expectation builds pressure.
And pressure seeks release
During a ceremonial combat trial among the noble heirs, Ametheon restrained himself as usual.
He never starts at full power.
He escalates.
But when one heir questioned whether he held back out of arrogance — whether he feared proving himself beneath Conri's shadow —
Something inside him cracked.
The sky reacted.
Clouds blackened instantly.
Three stormfronts collided over Valmythra's capital.
Lightning began striking without conscious command.
Not wild — but overcharged.
Mountains split.
Magical lakes surged.
The Angelic Pegasi panicked mid-flight.
This was not rage.
It was suppressed expectation igniting.
Rowena moved first — raising lunar barriers to shield civilians.
Cassandra invoked calming winds.
But the storm was feeding off Ametheon's internal conflict.
Then Conri appeared.
He did not shout.
He did not overpower the storm.
He stepped into it.
Lightning struck him directly.
It dispersed harmlessly.
He looked at his son and said:
"Storms answer truth. Not pressure."
Ametheon tried to suppress the sky by force.
It worsened.
He fell to one knee.
For the first time in his life —
He lost.
Not to an enemy.
To himself.
And that defeat shook him more than any battlefield ever could.
After order was restored, Conri summoned Ametheon alone beyond Valmythra's mountain rim.
No audience.
No titles.
No throne.
Just father and son.
Conri did something unexpected.
He attacked first.
Not lightly.
He pressed Ametheon relentlessly.
Each strike forced Ametheon to react without overcharging.
Every time Ametheon attempted escalation through raw output, Conri countered efficiently.
Then Conri disarmed him.
Threw him into stone.
And said:
"You fight like you're being watched."
Silence.
Another round.
This time Conri restricted himself to equal physical output.
No All-Father manifestation.
No overwhelming sovereignty.
Ametheon was forced to adapt.
He learned:
Storm is not emotion.
Strength is not volume.
Courage is not suppression of fear.
After hours of combat, exhausted and bruised, Ametheon finally stabilized a lightning channel through his body — not outward.
Internalized.
Focused.
He struck once.
Precise.
Controlled.
Conri smiled faintly.
"Good. You fought to understand — not to prove."
It was Ametheon's first true defeat.
And his first true growth.
The same fragment that birthed Lunareth was not singular.
When Tyrfing evolved into its All-Father state, two primal shards separated.
One became Rowena's blade.
The other remained dormant.
Until Ametheon's storm awakening.
He brought the shard to Eitri once more — the same master-smith who would forged Mjolnir and Stormbreaker for Thor.
From that fragment was born:
Vaelthrym — The Courage Cleaver
A mystic axe.
Balanced, not oversized.
Forged with:
Tyrfing's Heroic Authority
Storm-channeling veins
Strength amplification core
Authority of Vaelthrym
1. Valor Recall (Limited)
It cannot revive as broadly as Tyrfing.
But when Ametheon fights alongside warriors who fall defending others, their courage temporarily manifests as spectral reinforcement around him.
Their will fuels him.
Storm Conduction
Vaelthrym stabilizes lightning flow.
It prevents emotional overload.
The axe grounds storms into focused arcs.
3. Courage Amplification
The closer allies are to breaking, the stronger Ametheon becomes.
Fear near him converts into defence.
1,500 Years After Conri Left Earth
When Conri departed Earth with his people to Valmythra after opposing Olympus, something remained.
Memory.
Legends grew.
Over generations, myth crystallized into faith.
A religion emerged.
Known among early civilizations as:
The Eresian Path
Centered around:
"The Wandering Silver Sword God."
In scripture, he is described as:
The One Who Opposed Olympus.
The Ruler of Sword and Heroes.
The Fang-Crowned Wanderer.
The God Who Walked Among Men.
Olympus is referenced symbolically — not by name — but implied through conflict with sky-tyrants reminiscent of Zeus.
The texts describe Conri leaving Earth not in defeat—
But in promise.
"He departed not to abandon, but to ascend."
Core Beliefs:
Strength must defend, not dominate.
Death in valor is sacred.
Courage is divine inheritance.
The Silver Sovereign will return when heroes are forgotten.
Sacred Text
Known as:
The Fang Scripture
Structured like historical narrative intertwined with prophecy.
Includes:
The War Against Olympus.
The Exodus to the Promised Realm.
The Founding of Valmythra.
The Prophecy of the Storm Son and Moon Daughter.
The Promised Land
Described as:
A realm beyond sea and sky.
Three times the size of the old world.
Where beasts are magical.
Where lakes shine with power.
Clearly referencing Valmythra.
When Conri left, not all followed.
Some chose Earth.
These were the Eresians.
Over 1,500 years:
Their bloodline diluted into what became known as High Humans.
But after Conri's ascension to All-Father—
A distant blessing echoed through ancestry.
Subtle enhancements appeared:
Increased lifespan.
Heightened battle instinct.
Resistance to fear-based magic.
Their legends remained intact.
Every major event of Conri's myth was preserved in scripture.
Like a sacred chronicle.
After the Olympian conflict, a faction of Eresians retreated underground.
They built a concealed kingdom.
Protected by relics from Conri's era.
Hidden from Olympian surveillance.
This kingdom still exists.
Guarding:
Ancient weapon fragments.
Original Fang banners.
A sealed prophecy vault.
They do not worship blindly.
They wait.
For signs of return.
Now the world stands with:
A Storm-Heir who learned restraint.
A Moon-Daughter who governs death.
An All-Father whose name became scripture.
A hidden kingdom preserving truth.
A religion waiting for prophecy fulfillment.
A few years passed other powers on Earth began to notice Eresian advancement.
SHIELD (centuries later) would classify Eresian ruins as, "Anomalous Pre-Asgardian Technology.
