As the conflicts throughout various bleak universes raged on, a group of people on a dying Earth prayed to the gods for an end to this ice age. Not a single one answered their plea. "No God has come to provide the humans salvation in the end. It is time." A mother was grieving for her recently deceased boy before falling asleep. In her dream, she met an old man. "My Lord, is that really you?" The man approached her. "Yeah, my child. I have come to visit my favourite planet." The old man proceeded to tell her to leave with her brother and his wife. "It is the only way to go to the promised land." The lady woke up from her dream and told her big brother to flee with her. "God told me in a dream that we need to leave the gentiles to their own fate. It is for our own safety." Her brother nods and the two of them walked away to the western desert with his brother's wife after saying goodbyes to the others. The old man from the dream appeared behind the three as they are going back to the Levant. His frail body changed into that of a dark humanoid with mouths covering his body. "Now time for the rest." The twins are preparing the tents for the group to live in when they noticed a woman wearing miko clothes and a sun tiara. "Struggle no more. It is time for you to go to a better place." Their eyes got wider. "Amaterasu-sama, thank you for rescuing us." The lady accompanied them to the tent and tucked the twins to sleep. She licked her lips after seeing them sleeping. "Eating humans is a cliche for those gods of old. I have a better idea." The 'sun goddess' transforms back to her true form as a mass of crawling chaos. The evil being absorbed the twins and carried them to the ruins of a shrine in Hokkaido. He left them to the mercy of the elements. After leaving Japan, he would pose as Bacchus to trick the rest of the group into drinking mercury and dying from poisoning.
