Chapter 166
Rachel sat solemnly on the steps of this Greek designed hall, she was in her fourteen year old appearance back when she died first died. The Girl who was next to her was her twin Migneas who also appears to be fourteen years old. She also doesn't look very happy.
"So to start, I'll explain your birth. All of you here where born to the G.o.ds and G.o.ddess of Odore garden. However, birth here isn't physical but spiritual. So you parents had sent you to the pool of reincarnation to be reborn as humans and earn what we call a t.i.tle.
Like my t.i.tle as the G.o.ddess of Love and War.
You all have earned a t.i.tle, like my lovely twins girls, Migneas and Krirra who both bare the t.i.tle of Blessing and the t.i.tle of the Dawn. Both Rachel and the Girl next to her grew gloomier.
Oh, where was I….Ah, Yes.

Now to explain this being born as a human to gain your t.i.tle. In your human lives you've had to experience unpleasant things in your human life. This is do to your true divine birth, in those worlds you have no actual luck as a result of having no luck. You'll be a stepping stone for those who have more luck then you.
Rachel and her twin's eyes darkened more.
And for that I am sorry, for such experiences, but please except that for you to make it this far, you have to be strong spiritually and emotionally in order to survive as a G.o.d and or G.o.ddess. This method of having you reincarnated has been pa.s.sed down by the higher Council, since the creation of Odore Garden.
There are still a handful of G.o.ds and G.o.ddess that use the traditional method, however, there is only a 1/10 ratio of the child surviving due to its soul getting to try to get used to being a divine being. This is why the method of being reincarnated as a human first was necessary. The Divine energy grows, and the only way to stabilize it is the trails one lives with. Your human lives make you into what you are.
That is why they also define your t.i.tle, when your soul resonates with your Divine energy through emotions and willpower.
I Do hope what I have said just now doesn't confuse anyone." Ishtar waited for a response, but no one said anything.
"Divine energy, is a little bit harder to explain. As it is many things. But for now, I'll start with…..hmm.
You could say in one way it replaces the Luck
Mortals all have Karma or Luck, designed by the worlds they are placed in. Now Karma is also the sum of a person's actions in their current existence. However, that only applies after the world has delegated that certain amount of Karma.
However, Karma will not dictate your death that is left up to fate. However, it can be a factor in death in of cases which the story is set in. Karma is the happening during your life, and it will dictate what you gain and lose in your life.
In the case of all of you, when your Karma is replaced with divine energy. Karma it will remain at a constant state of zero, meaning no matter what you do you won't gain or lose any Karma. That can also apply to people who interact with you.
They won't gain or lose Karma when acting with or against you."
Rachel turned her head while biting her lip, to the point it almost felt like she was tasting blood.
"Now about your appearance, if you are wondering why you appear similar to your forms when you where human, it is because as I said before. We G.o.ds and G.o.ddess are spiritual in nature we don't have physical form. By being human we develop that form, and also because we most see ourselves in that form. Then our divine energy will shape and take on that form because it is how we identify ourselves.
Any questioned before I move on?"
Some random person in the back raised his hand.
"Yes, You" Ishtar pointed.
"So, can we change our forms anytime we want?"
"Nope"
"….."
"Your Divine energy is the one to give shape to your form. Your Emotions and Will-Power as well as one's perception of things will be the factor that changes one's form.
Say if one goes through personal growth their form will change to match the evolution they go through.
Anyone Else?"
"So, if we G.o.ds are spiritual in nature and the Divine energy gives us a form. Does that mean we are technically walking souls or something?" another guy ask.
"To explain this we would have to go through reincarnation, Soul and Spirit. Now stay with me so that your mind won't go boom okay.
Reincarnation applies when a soul is ready to be reborn in the next world. But before that in exchange for reincarnation the Soul must leave a Spirit behind. Souls have no form they are basically a piece of white paper, that gains color when it gains a spirit. That Spirit is the collections of their life in the mortal worlds. That Spirit is also sometimes called ghost in mortal worlds.
A Soul is at a clean slate at birth, Spirit is developed as the person grows. That Spirit is needed to keep the divine energy stable and that is why the children of G.o.ds and G.o.ddess need to be born as humans and not raised as G.o.ds straight away. Because if the Spirit is developing while the Soul is getting used to the divine power, it won't be stable.
The Divine power is using the Spirit to shape the Soul, and the Soul once shaped is now longer paper. But, all of you standing before me."
"….."
"….."
"….."
"d.a.m.n it, why is even the afterlife so Complicated." Someone said out loud, causing some laughter.
"Well, moving on." Ishtar continued once the room was done with their giggles. "Now, moving on to your names. You may be wondering about them; your names are creature due to your souls' signature. Like fingerprints are used to identify you, all souls have a signature to identify themselves. Once born and Algorithm or Aura is found and turned into a name.
That is how we name the G.o.ds and G.o.ddess like Odore Garden. My name Ishtar is not my G.o.ddess name but an inherited name, pa.s.sed down to me. Names can also be inherited, once you inherit a name you take on the t.i.tles and power that come with the name.
Now Some of you may think that you can get away with calming another's name as your own, that doesn't work here." Ishtar shock her head as she leaned against the table. "Saying your Name in the Ancient Tongue will release your Aura, again, proof of who you are."
Ishtar stopped leaning against her table, "Now when you all leave here you will be going to a.s.signments, it will be what kind of jobs and management you take on. But for now you are all dismissed." Ishtar then disappeared in an instant without a trace.
"So, umm, where do we go next?" said one of the guys in the room.
