GENESIS

Genesis

Created In Our Image,
Betrayed By Freewill

Beginnings are subjective.

Eternal is perspective, not a state of being. Consequences are circular.

With that understood, the story of Earth is owed to the Primordial Gods of Olympus. Your founders are exiled Titans. The Gods are your creators and responsible for your continued existence. They are how you began; therefore, they are the beginning of your story.

A Cosmic Love Shattered,
A Destiny Reborn

Early in the Age of Pisces, a forbidden love ignited: the Goddess of Life entwined with a Mortal. Their love defied celestial law–until a sister’s wrath tore them apart, her shears severing destiny itself. The cataclysm birthed a rift that cursed mankind with an age of corruption, holy wars, and religious absolution.

Forgotten by the mortals they once nurtured, Zeus and his Pantheon endure, their celestial gaze fixed upon a fracturing humanity. When diplomacy fails, Zeus descends to the Mortal realms as William Hork, a modern geneticist. Wielding the power of Project Genesis—a transfer of consciousness through time—he attempts to mend the past and secure a future for all. But, as the experiment falters, unleashing chaos across history, a destined soul is reborn.

Joshua Bach, reincarnated to fulfill his destiny, emerges as the Gods’ catalyst and Hork’s final hope. A ferociously idealistic young man, Josh struggles to come of age in a corrupt world, rediscovering his timeless purpose—and a love that transcends eons—while Ananke's Celestial Prophesy rings in Hork's ear.

Spanning modern day, the 1960s, and ancient Mesopotamia, this epic weaves human history, ruthless mythology, science fiction, and the supernatural into a love story that defies the stars.

I see things so clearly now. I know where you came from. I know where you will go. Outside of your world, knowing is as hollow as ignorance, but perhaps my knowledge may be useful to you… Those with still something left to live for. But what makes one alive? I am certainly here…

A hauntingly surreal tarot-inspired cinematic keyframe depicts Jesus standing in a lavish marble foyer with arches, surrounded by opulent furnishings and sumptuous fabrics, set against a vibrant, starry cosmos backdrop that evokes a sense of mysticism and wonder. His skin has a warm, golden undertone, radiant with an inner glow, accompanied by shaggy hair, his face is giving an expression of awe. He's wearing a white t-shirt and tan carpenter's pants stained from labor. The scene is captured with high-resolution clarity, blending bold, expressive brushstrokes and intricate details that seem to pulse with an ethereal energy. A fusion of deep blues and purples dominates the color palette, punctuated by bursts of neon pink and green, reminiscent of the nostalgic warmth. The image is framed with a shallow depth of field, emphasizing the central figure, surrounded by a subtle bokeh blur that adds depth and dimension, and a hint of vignette that draws the viewer's eye inward, paying homage to the styles of Maciej Kuciara, Jama Jurabaev, and Wojtek Fus.
