harbingers of change

lost to all but a few of the highest ranking demi-fates is a legend of a prophecy telling of the end of order and certainty, the failure of fate, and the onset of chaos. the prophecy was made by the original fates and set to stone, which has broken and separated in the years since it's creation. gathering these pieces of prophecy is one of the highest priorities of the organizations.

although the truth of the prophecy is a closely kept secret, it exists as a fairy tale among the demi-fates. the harbingers were unearthly demons that consumed the powers of demi-fates and stole their destinies. but as long as the ideals of the society (later the organization) were strongly held, the harbingers could do no harm.

the origins of an era

a long time ago, three women exhibiting godlike powers took the fates as their names and began to carve their domain out of the chaotic world. as their dominion grew, they bestowed powers upon their most loyal followers, who became gods to the normal humans.

eventually, the fates succumbed to mortality, and what remained of their dominion dissipated. from the remnants of their closest followers, the "society" was born. those with powers became known as the demi-fates and became leaders of the society. anybody found born with powers was conscripted by the society and apprenticed to the demi-fates.

although the society was initially bound by the ideals of the original fates, disparate ideologies began to grow, dividing the demi-fates nearly evenly by which of the three power aspects they had. this led to the fracture of the society and the formation of the three organizations as they are known today.
