Stories of the New World characters : The God Andromeda.

Deities form from the collective consciousness of all souls that are born in a galaxy and share all physical, emotional and mental experiences that happen to them. The old man depicted in this image is the Deity of Andromeda a Galaxy which has been at war for centuries. Seated in Heaven Andromeda had been observing the galactic battle and recognised that this mortal conflict would destroy him. Driven by fear of death he confronted his family and pleaded with them for permission to intervene. "My spirit is growing cold and hateful" He said, "I can no longer weather this suffering, I insist that I be allowed to send a prophet who can end this war". Despite their guilt the other Gods stated that the natural order of life had determined his demise and that it was not their right to interfere. Then reminding their brother that he was born with knowledge of his death they explained that he will now begin the life cycle again. This elicited a furious response from Andromeda who's anger could be felt across the cosmos "I demand a justification for my death! Why must I begin again? I have not yet reached enlightenment". The Deity was no longer willing to accept the Universes laws and so turning his back on the other Gods he made a wish into the darkness asking it to let him live so he may battle his family and win. This request was granted allowing him to incarnate on the Earth where he began hunting his first victim, his brother, the Wizard Nate, Deity of the Milky Way.
