Just a lowly apple.
Below is everything you'll need to know about the world of the Lodrakas and even some stuff you don't. Enjoy reading!
The world began with the birth of a god.
The heavens whispered his name as he formed, adopting the body of a wolf with magnificent black fur, carrying the echoes all throughout the then empty land.
Rise, Rise!
As soon as he appeared in the blank slate of the universe, born from his own decisive, absolute will, he thought to himself how cold and dull this world was. He decided he couldn't have so much potential just go to waste. So, he commanded a planet into existence.
And as soon as it was created, perfect and beautiful, a white paw came down upon it and crushed it into nothing. Out of no where another wolf sat across from him, white as the purest of light, looking down onto the place where the planet used to be.
Adorning a frown, Lord Rise would ask, "Why did you do such a thing?"
And the other wolf would answer, "Because it would've died anyway."
This line of thinking intrigued Lord Rise. Is that truly the case, he wondered? Would all of his creations just fall into ruin?
"But," Rise decided to argue, "don't you think this place is so empty?"
And the other wolf would reply, "That's because everything that was once here is now dead."
Baffled, Rise stared at the white wolf, wondering if that was indeed the truth. Before he could say more, she informed him, "It is absolute."
Unable to find an adequate response, Rise asked, "What is your name?"
Donning a smile, the female told him, "It is Lady Ruin."
However, despite everything she said, Ruin took pity on Rise. She felt bad that all of his glorious work would fall into naught in the end, so she made him a deal. "Let us build a new world together. One so big that it can be built and brought down over and over and yet keep living. One where the forces of life and death can live in balance. And let us watch over it from above. Can we do that?"
A fascinating offer, Rise noted. "I believe we can."
And so Rise formed the universe, and all of it's endless planets, each one different from the last, all of them equally beautiful. And Ruin would destroy it again, piece by piece. And then Rise would rebuild it. And they managed to live in harmony this way, leading the world to become what it now is.
Zash
Zash is the first of the Deities. He rules over the world's cold, snowy sectors. He is a kind god, forgiving and understanding, although he isn't a strong flier and can be clumsy. Excels on land and functions well in rough terrain. Also a good swimmer. Immune to the cold. Despite being the first, he isn't very leader-like, preferring to just live peacefully and dodge conflict.
Quarren
Quarren is the second Deity. He was borne of the forest and watches over them with a passion. He is stoic and doesn't always get along with others easily due to his harsh nature. Doesn't like the excessive warmth or sub-zero temperatures. Strong on land and in the air, Quarren is well suited for the hard-to-navigate paths of the dense woodlands.
Dyla
Dyla is the third Deity. She is a playful, mischievous, but intelligent dragon who just likes to have a good time and mess about. She enjoys sarcasm and tends to act out in serious situations, leading to her getting scolded by the others rather often, but that isn't because she underestimates the severity of such scenarios. She is ruler of the underground, with all of it's cave networks and expansive tunnel systems.
Wazirik
Benevolent and calm, Wazirik is the fourth Deity and probably one of the more mature and, well, god-like of the bunch. He has a level-head and is very serious, but loves the world and can't help but be kind to everyone. He is the king of the daytime sky, and naturally, he is very good at flight. He doesn't work well in small areas and can't get around very easily when he is faced with lots of obstacles, such as in a closely-knit forest with thick undergrowth. Rumoured to be claustrophobic, but that theory was never proved.
Kodra
The fifth Deity, Kodra is the most reclusive and mysterious of the bunch. She prefers the arid warmth of the desert landscapes over anything, and only talks to the other gods when it is absolutely necessary. She doesn't like to talk much but is very smart. She doesn't like the cold and prefers open terrain. She's strong both on wing and on foot. Those closer to her will recognize her to actually be quite motherly, and as much as she refuses to admit it, she is very fond of children.
Syaki
The sixth Deity is Syaki, and she is known for her poisonous attitude and angry demeanour. Ruling over the night time sky, she coasts through the darkness with ease thanks to enhanced vision, and relishes in the solitariness and isolation. She, much like Wazirik, prefers the air to the land and cannot fight in tight spaces. However, unlike him, she has no fears, to the point she can hurt herself being bold. In a lot of ways the two are polar opposites.

Rezikel
Rezikel is the seventh and final Deity. Ruler of the expansive space of the world's oceans, he spends his time coasting through currents and relaxing among the coral. He's a sleek, fast dragon, accustomed to both open and dense, tighter areas. However, he cannot fly, limiting him to the ground and the water. He has keen vision, a set of strong lungs and gills, and can support a lot of weight, making him one of the stronger deities. He is typically calm, but a little temperamental if something rubs him the wrong way.
