N/History/Orsinius' Two Challenges

The battle continued once Nature had been imprisoned into the Underworld, and once again Orsinius was at work kicking the spirits of the defeated into Aether. Over time, his powers strengthened, so that he was the most powerful of all the gods. This, coupled with his mighty mallet, made him in some respects the most fearful enemy one could have. His physical ability was matched by a lack of wit, however, and so he challenged Lamoth to a duel. Lamoth accepted the challenge, knowing that he would have to defeat Orsinius sometime soon or he would become weaker than him. Lamoth could not corrupt him, however, as he was born of Vayria and Lamoth, and thus was at a loss for what to do. Just as he called Scipios his pet demigod to fight for him, Lamoth was hit by the powerful impact of the mallet. Cripped, he fled to the Underworld, while Orsinius let him be.

Scipios knew he could not defeat such a powerhouse, so instead he decieved Orsinius into fighting Vayrian. Orsinius' slow wit was no match for the clever lies of Scipios, and he accepted the challenge. A blow of his hammer threw Vayrian into Aether, rending a terrible tear between the two plains. As Vayrian saw the gash in the fabric of reality, he realized that the pure, burning energy of the positive plane would eventually bleed through and destroy the midworld in fiery heat. Rather than save himself from falling into Aether and being trapped, Vayrian summoned the mountain Cobden into being, sealing the hole between planes with it. Orsinius was now the most mighty god of all. The others, however, plotted for his downfall.
