Bahamut's mighty power compelled all the Grand Aeons to emerge from their hiding places and gather on the newly formed battlefield.
"From this moment forth, the northern territory beyond shall belong to the Order of the Moon!" Bahamut decreed with an undeniable and authoritative voice.
"From this moment forth, the southern territory on this side shall belong to the Order of the Sun!" He continued, establishing a new and clear division of power among them.
Astaguna and Hara were separated by an impassable dividing line. Days turned into weeks, weeks into months, and months into years. The war among the Grand Aeons subsided for a time, but the seeds of discord and hatred had been sown in their hearts.
Humans descended from Hara grew and flourished in the fertile southern region. One day, a woman named Clarissa Constantine, a descendant of Hara, with great and irresistible curiosity, came to visit the forbidden forest where Demantra Ent'tra lived in solitude.
The wise Demantra saw great potential in the young and spirited Clarissa and began to teach her all his vast knowledge of nature and life.
Gradually, Clarissa, who had begun to develop feelings for the charming Demantra, came every day to meet the Grand Aeon in the forbidden forest.
Unbeknownst to Demantra, Clarissa, who was infatuated, offered him a peach that had been tainted with the Blight by Rivotra, a cunning trap designed to destroy the harmony and peace that had been established.
Through the deceit of Rivotra's cunning Blight, Clarissa managed to make Demantra fall in love with her. They married in secret, without the knowledge of the other Grand Aeons, including Ave, who had been focused on building the temple and spreading his teachings.
Until, as Clarissa and Demantra shared intimacy, a tragic and unexpected event occurred. Demantra lost his Maha, his extraordinary power shattering into fragments of soul that then resided within his children, who were called Remunah Emusa Maha, or more commonly known as REM.
It was this REM that caused some of Demantra's descendants to possess diverse strange abilities, such as taming wild beasts or forming contracts with the inhabitants of the mysterious Orkusshura world. They inherited a small portion of the great Grand Aeon's power.
The descendants of Demantra and Clarissa spread rapidly throughout the southern region, causing many REM presences in the mortal world.
All of his descendants inherited diverse strange powers as time passed, creating a unique and surprising lineage.
Meanwhile, Clarissa, bound by the debilitating Blight, could not age and remained eternally youthful, while her husband Demantra aged rapidly, feeling the inevitable weight of time.
Demantra actually realized what was happening to him. Jagannath, his wise uncle, had once told him the terrible consequences if he married a mortal human; he would lose his sanctity and invaluable power.
All of his power was now slowly fading, and a small portion transferred to Clarissa, who became a vessel for the evil influence of the Blight.
Ave, who had been engrossed in worship and temple activities for hundreds of years, finally noticed the strangeness occurring in the world around him. Sensing the weakening and loss of Demantra's power, Ave sought out all the scattered descendants of Demantra.
And with fury, he drained all the blood from his brother's children, attempting to restore the lost power of his sibling by killing them.
Of course, Clarissa did not stand idly by as her children were brutally slaughtered.
With the fragments of Demantra's soul called REM flowing in the blood of her descendants, she fought Ave alongside her family. A fierce battle ensued, filling the southern region of the Naraka continent with the massacre of Demantra's innocent descendants.
Rivotra saw an opening in the success of his wicked plan. Exploiting the chaos and bloodshed, he attacked the southern region with the Order of the Moon, who were still influenced by the dark Blight.
Of course, Bahamut and the others did not stand idly by as they witnessed the horrifying slaughter. Led by Bahamut and Ave, they fought against the power of Rivotra and the enraged Order of the Moon.
War raged anew, more terrible and devastating than before. Demantra's descendants were no match for the Grand Aeons who possessed extraordinary Maha power.
They began to be marginalized and overwhelmed by forces far beyond their own. Meanwhile, Rivotra never cared about their fate; all that mattered to him was absolute power over Naraka.
Demantra, with his remaining dwindling power, created a strong protective dome to shield his remaining children from the ravages of war.
He aged even more rapidly, his body slowly transforming into a single seed of the tree of life, offering hope for the survival of his lineage in a future filled with uncertainty.
Meanwhile, the Naraka continent began to fracture as the Grand Aeon Titan Og rampaged indiscriminately, unleashing his uncontrolled rage due to the Blight's influence.
Ninety percent of the population of the eastern region perished in his devastating rampage. Bahamut watched all of this with a broken heart, witnessing the endless bloodshed. He wept, lamenting all this destruction, and so did Ave, who felt profound sorrow over the loss and chaos.
Finally, the Order of the Sun realized that their mother's tears did not permit them to directly harm each other. But it was the humans, their descendants, who became the victims of their eternal and futile conflicts.
Rivotra and the Order of the Moon, who had been exposed to the Blight from the beginning, attacked Bahamut with full force. Ice from Eira's Maha power pierced the heart of the mighty Bahamut.
In his unbearable pain, Bahamut retaliated with extraordinarily powerful Maha lightning, striking Eira with the full force of his rage.
The Naraka continent was this time truly destroyed and fractured into seven separate parts by the colliding Maha powers. Demantra was thrown along with his protective dome, landing in a distant and isolated place.
The forbidden forest where he lived was separated from the Lalaluna archipelago, the origin of the great Grand Aeons.
Meanwhile, Ave was burned by Ifrit with extraordinarily hot Maha fire, his body consumed by uncontrollable flames. Ba'i Yang, who possessed venomous Maha, transformed into a terrifying giant serpent, spewing his deadly poison at the helpless Ave.
Eira, with her remaining dwindling power, launched a final attack on Ave, freezing him in a cold and piercing ice crystal, filled with Ba'i Yang's lethal venom, rendering Ave helpless, frozen in unspeakable and eternal pain.
Witnessing the destruction and death of his beloved siblings, Karasu Tengu, with his Maha power called "Anti Maha," created a strong and impenetrable protective dome, separating the continent where they stood from the six other shattered continents, isolating themselves from the endless and despair-filled conflict.
All of the Order of the Moon sought to end the war that had claimed the lives of Bahamut and the helpless Ave. They wanted to eliminate Nyanja, Mythria, and Karasu Tengu, the remaining members of the Order of the Sun.
However, Maha Tengu was "Anti Maha"; no one among the Order of the Moon could penetrate his sturdy protective shield.
That day was 15,000 years from the era of Jade and his companions. Clarissa Constantine was judged by Karasu Tengu, Nyanja, and Mythria for all her actions that had caused the catastrophe.
She pleaded with the remaining Order of the Sun not to exterminate her innocent descendants. Clarissa vowed never to leave the splintered island now called the Thousand Flower Archipelago, exiling herself and her descendants forever.
Centuries passed. Clarissa, aided by her remaining descendants, painstakingly created a dense Spirit Forest surrounding the foothills of their settlement.
They released Mystical Beasts and the diverse tribes of the Orkusshura world to guard the entry and exit to their dwelling, which they called the City of Mandaraka, a final sanctuary for them.
Every day, all the Grand Aeons of the Order of the Sun visited them out of affection and a sense of responsibility. They could not completely abandon Clarissa and their own descendants, despite the many tragedies that had occurred.
One day, Mythria came to teach technology and reading to Clarissa's descendants. Mythria brought a rare chunk of Mythrilblood for them to study.
And Clarissa learned that she would not be immortal if this mineral could harm her. Clarissa, who could not age or die due to exposure to Demantra's sanctity, felt her life empty and meaningless in the vast expanse of time without her beloved.
Without Demantra Ent'tra by her side, Clarissa could no longer live happily with her children, who were already prosperous in Mandaraka, in the first house they had ever built together.
In deep despair, Clarissa cut her own throat with the Mythrilblood that had been sharpened to a razor's edge.
Before breathing her last, she swallowed a seed from Demantra Ent'tra's tree of life, and then her body transformed into a giant tree that still towered in the center of Mandaraka to this day, becoming a symbol of sacrifice and hope for her descendants.
