New Chapter – "The Second Creation and the Ice That Shattered"
The universe was quiet.
The battle with Orion had burned itself into infinity.
But Kaal did not rest.
When light falls silent – time begins to cry.
And he heard its cry.
He stood alone at the edge of the old cosmos, staring into the void that still sought shape.
"Humans are not enough. Nor demons. Nor gods," he whispered.
"There is still need. There is still life waiting to be born."
The Creation of the Elves
He stepped forward.
And where his foot touched – forests grew.
Not ordinary forests.
Trees that could speak. Soil that guarded secrets.
From within the glowing leaves – the Elves were born.
Beings of light and shadow. Graceful, sharp-minded.
With eyes that could peer through time.
They did not swear loyalty – but honored his existence.
"You are the Balanceborn," Kaal said.
"You do not interfere, but neither are you indifferent.
The world will need you again –
when the gods forget... once more."

The Creation of the Ice Beasts
But it was not enough.
Fire had grown too powerful.
The world's rage cried for contrast.
So Kaal traveled to the edge of eternal frost –
Where light itself dared not enter.
And with a sweep of his hand –
He created the Ice Beasts.
White-skinned giants, wise as gods,
but quiet as graves.
With every move – time froze.
They were not evil, but neither gentle.
They guarded. They balanced. They did not forgive.
"You are the freeze of thought.
The silence before the shatter.
When the next inferno comes – you shall smother it."
The Arrival of David – The Legendary Warrior of Hell
The snow began to crack.
The wind trembled.
Even the newborn ice recoiled.
On the mountain, a figure cloaked in black flames approached.
The ground melted beneath him.
His eyes – burning blades.
In his hand – armor forged from pure Hell.
David.
The Legendary Warrior of Hell.
Father of Liron.
Grandfather of Kaal.
Hell did not create him – he recreated Hell.
Kaal stared at him in silence.
"I knew you'd come," he said.
David answered with a broken grin.
"Then answer me, Kaal...
When you defeated the gods, when you shattered balance –
who gave you the right to recreate it?"
Kaal stepped forward.
"I am not a god.
I am an idea."
David drew the Hellblade.
Kaal drew nothing.
Battle of the Generations
The ice cracked.
Flames burst.
The world held its breath.
Kaal vs. David.
Grandson against grandfather.
Idea against memory.
They moved like gods, fought like demons.
Every strike – a masterpiece of destruction.
Every impact – a worldquake.
David launched waves of black fire –
Kaal bent time, returning the flames backward.
Kaal unleashed "The Prayer of Existence" –
David stood firm and roared:
"That's what I taught my son! Show me more!"
The End
At last – both stood still.
Wounded, exhausted, undefeated.
David fell to his knees.
Not in surrender – in respect.
"You are not me," he said.
"But you... are more.
Never forget –
Even fire is born in Hell."
Kaal extended a hand.
"I don't forget.
I just begin."
They stood together – the past and the future.
And not far from them – the first Elven tree bloomed.
