Intermission One-Shot Chapter - A True Beginning: Zeth

Beyond The Stars


Author's Note: This is the full origin story for Zeth. I do highly recommend reading it before starting to read the continuation.

BTS One-Shot

A True Beginning: Zeth

Author’s Note: While this one-shot covers events that happened before Chapter 1 of BTS, it does have spoilers for later events and therefore should not be read until later.

Narrator: Before we turn the page forward and look towards the future of BTS, let’s turn the page back and look back to before the beginning. This is Zeth’s origin story. It is June 24th, Year 100.

*An angel nurse is holding a baby*

Nurse: Congratulations, Lady Harmona. You have given birth to a baby boy.

*The nurse hands the baby over to Harmona. She lovingly cradles the baby in her arms and she has a loving smile*

Harmona: Hi there, little guy. I have had a few name ideas picked out for you. Let’s see. Looking at you… Zeth. That’s it. Your name is Zeth.

Nurse: That sounds like a lovely name.

Harmona: Yes. Welcome to the world, Zeth.

*An angel doctor then brings Zaydra into the room*

Zaydra: I was told the kid has been born.

Harmona: Yep. Look, you now have a little brother. Isn’t he adorable?

*Zaydra stares at the baby. She then has flashbacks of her older brother, Zenfaro. She looks down at the floor with a sad expression*

Zaydra: He can’t replace Zenfaro…

*Harmona looks upset*

Harmona: Hey, don’t say that. He’s not supposed to be a replacement for Zenfaro. We’re all still sad over Zenfaro’s death but please treat Zeth with love and care.

Zaydra: I’m sorry… It’s just… Never mind. I’ll see myself out.

*Zaydra leaves the room*

Doctor: That was unexpected.

Nurse: I didn’t think she would have such a reaction to having a little brother.

Harmona: She’s just grieving. I believe in time she will come to accept Zeth.

***

Narrator: Three days later.

*Baby Zeth is still in the hospital and is hooked up to some machinery while asleep. Harmona and three male angel doctors are gathered around him and are looking at some computer screens*

Male Doctor 1: We’ve been going over the results of the health tests. He seems to be completely healthy. But…

Harmona: What do you mean by “but”? Do I need to be concerned?

Female Doctor: When going over the scans of his heart, we noticed something.

*Harmona looks nervous*

Harmona: Is there something wrong with his heart!? Come on! Tell me!

Male Doctor 2: On his heart, we noticed some kind of mark on it.

Harmona: He’s a newborn baby! How could there be anything on it!?

Male Doctor 1: Let us show you.

*The doctor pulls up a live scan of his heart*

Male Doctor 1: As you can see, the heart is beating normally. It’s functioning just fine but look… There is most definitely a mark on it.

*Harmona looks closely at Zeth’s heart. Sure enough, there is a slight indent of lines on his heart that look similar to a star symbol (like the symbol seen below but a little rougher and not as straight)*

*Harmona’s eyes open wide*

Harmona: What is this!? It kind of looks like a star.

Female Doctor: We don’t know. We’ve never seen anything like this before.

Harmona: Do I have this too? Hook me up. I need to know.

Male Doctor 2: Very well.

*Harmona gets hooked up to the machinery and the doctors look at her heart*

Male Doctor 1: You don’t have any marks on your heart.

Female Doctor: Maybe it’s just a part of his magic.

Male Doctor 2: His heart works fine so I would say it’s nothing to worry about.

*Harmona stares up at the ceiling as she is still lying down while hooked up to the machinery*

Harmona: Hmmm… I guess there is no choice but to not mess with it and hope that it’s fine.

***

Narrator: Four months later. It is October 28th, Year 100.

*In Heaven, Harmona is walking outside, holding baby Zeth. She walks by some female angels*

Female Angel 1: Ah! He’s so cute!

Harmona: Thank you! He is indeed adorable.

Female Angel 2: He’s going to grow up to be so handsome.

Female Angel 3: Well, he did inherit Lady Harmona’s fantastic genes after all, so of course!

*Harmona smiles*

Harmona: No need to be so flattering.

*Diamond and Clora walk up to Harmona*

Diamond: The preparations are complete.

Clora: We may now take Prince Zeth down to Earth once again.

Harmona: Good. Diamond, I need you to stay here. Clora will be coming down to Earth with me.

Diamond: Yes, my goddess.

*Harmona (holding baby Zeth) and Clora head to the edge of Heaven where the portal is*

*After going through the portal, they arrive in the Temple of the Light Goddess*

Clora: It’s the same place as always.

*They leave the temple and head out to an area with a lot of trees and nature. They soon arrive at a camp site. There are angel soldiers stationed all over. Zaydra is there too*

Zaydra: Does bringing him here to Earth continuously really do anything?

Harmona: Yes. It gets his body used to the mortal world. When he grows up, he will protect these people.

*Harmona hands Zeth to Clora but Zeth starts crying*

Clora: Looks like someone doesn’t want to leave his mommy.

*Harmona smiles.*

Harmona: Aww, don’t cry. I will be back in a bit. Clora and your big sis, Zaydra, will take care of you.

*Harmona holds out her index finger which baby Zeth grabs onto and then stops crying*

Harmona: See? It’s going to be all right.

*Harmona starts walking away but little do they know, there is a dark green-skinned male demon sitting on a tree branch in the distance. The demon is looking out toward the campsite using binoculars*

Demon: It’s time.

*As the angels stand on guard, there is a gust of wind that makes the trees sway for a bit and then it quickly stops. Dark clouds are coming into the area*

Male Angel 1: I’ve got a bad feeling about this.

Female Angel 1: You’ve always got a bad feeling about something. (Author’s Note: This is a Halo CE reference)

*Suddenly, an explosion happens, and all of the angels are alerted*

Zaydra: What just happened!?

*The explosion destroyed some trees and there are some powerful-looking demons walking into the area*

Clora: Demons!? Here!?

Zaydra: I’ll stop them! You protect Zeth!

*Zaydra runs toward battle where the other angels begin fighting the demons. Zaydra starts helping to fight them*

*Clora holds on to Zeth and watches on as the battle happens. However, a shadowy figure starts approaching Clora from behind. The shadowy figure reaches out and grabs onto Clora’s left shoulder. She is turned around and the shadowy figure rips Zeth away from her. She is shocked*

Clora: It’s you!!

*The shadowy figure is Korobu. He sinisterly smiles and holds onto baby Zeth. Baby Zeth begins to cry*

Korobu: The Dark Goddess truly is a genius. To eliminate a major potential threat while they are still young, and by turning them dark no less. The storm comes too. What a great atmosphere for this.

*The dark goddess’s darkness starts coming out of Korobu’s right hand and it starts infusing in baby Zeth’s body*

Clora: No!!!

*Zaydra turns around and sees what Korobu is doing. Her eyes open wide with despair. She starts having flashbacks to Zenfaro again*

Zaydra: No! Not another brother! Not again!

*Zaydra desperately races over to Korobu and punches him in the face. Korobu is knocked on his back but he does let go of Zeth. Zaydra grabs Zeth before he hits the ground. Baby Zeth has fallen unconscious. There is now a dark aura surrounding him and its dark power has seeped into his body*

*Lightning flashes in the sky and a heavy downpour of rain starts*

Zaydra: Oh goddess! What do we do!?

Clora: I don’t know!

*They look over to where the angels are battling demons and see that the angels are being defeated. The reason is that Zepto (with both of his shoulder eyes open) has arrived*

Zaydra: Another council member is here!?

Clora: Was this a planned in-advance attack!? How did they know!?

Zepto: This plan is brilliant! I get to have so much fun!

*Korobu starts getting up*

Korobu: Never underestimate Hell’s information network. Now, I will be taking that baby back to Hell where he will become one of our warriors.

*Korobu suddenly has to dodge a Star Shine Blast*

Korobu: Oh? So she came back.

*Harmona is back and she is furious*

Harmona: Die in a fire, Korobu!!

*Harmona looks at Zaydra*

Harmona: Give Zeth to me! I can separate the dark power from him!

*Harmona takes Zeth from Zaydra and puts her left hand near his mid-body. The dark power starts flowing out*

*Zaydra now battles Korobu but Harmona now feels pressure because Zepto and the other demons are pushing forward*

*Korobu knocks Zaydra away and tries to attack Harmona. Harmona pulls the darkness out of Zeth (Zeth’s hair turns black when this happens) but it forms into a new person. Harmona dodges Korobu but she is unable to grab onto the new being that the darkness formed. Korobu grabs the new being*

Korobu: I see. You took the darkness out of him but it also took a piece out of him too. He is no longer a whole being.

*Zaydra returns to Harmona’s side*

Harmona: We’re getting overwhelmed. I want the both of you to take Zeth and get him to safety. Hide him from evil. I will fight Korobu and Zepto.

*Harmona hands Zeth to Clora and both her and Zaydra run from the area*

Korobu: You can try to hide him but the boy will face consumption. It will be his destiny.

Harmona: Enough of your nonsense!

*Harmona releases another SSB but Korobu once again dodges*

Korobu: Sorry, but I will be taking this one back at least. In time, your son will face consumption. The Dark Goddess demands it.

Harmona: The one you have… Crimson… He will be consumed.

Korobu: Ah, Crimson. I think I will name this one that. The name of the color of his hair.

*Meanwhile, Zaydra and Clora run, Clora has wrapped Zeth in cloth*

Zaydra: My brother… this is my fault.

Clora: How far are we going!?

Zaydra: Until he’s not in danger anymore!

Clora: His sacred power is gone so we can’t even take him to Heaven anymore!

Zaydra: The Dark Goddess did something using Korobu…

*There are a few other demons in the area*

Zaydra: We can’t have these demons chasing us! Take my brother and escape! I will help cover you!

*Clora nods*

Clora: All right.

Zaydra: Give him hope and a future. Go to the nearby city, Kunasha. Guard Zeth with your life.

Clora: I will save him. That is my promise.

*Clora puts on the hood of her robe and starts running*

Clora: Zeth… He deserves better than this. He’s just a baby and has already been burdened with this.

*It’s now a dark and stormy night and Clora reaches the city of Kunasha. The pouring-down rain continues. Clora is wearing a cloak that covers everything but her face. She sees a man and a woman walking on the sidewalk and no one else is around. She quickly runs up to them*

*The man is Jack and the woman is Miranda*

Clora: Can you two adopt this baby? His name is Zeth. He’s four months old. Please, I beg of you!

Miranda: Is this your child?

Clora: No, but I am doing this for the baby’s mother. Please, you must adopt him! It’s urgent!

Jack: Why is that?

Clora: There is no time to fully explain but bad people want to capture this baby and do horrible things to him.

Miranda: That sounds bad.

Clora: Yes, so please take him. If we hurry, they won’t know that he has new parents.

*Miranda takes the baby*

Miranda: We will take good care of him.

Clora: Thank you very much.

*Miranda and Jack leave with the baby. Miranda looks forward with a serious expression*

Miranda: (Thinking) This baby has an important role to play in the future of this world.

*Jack looks at her*

Jack: Is something wrong?

Miranda: Oh! Nothing’s wrong. Just thinking about the future. That’s all.

*Clora goes back to the forest where she finds Zaydra*

Zaydra: Will he be okay?

Clora: Yes, the family seemed very caring.

Zaydra: You didn’t tell them that we are hiding them from demons, did you?

Clora: No, I didn’t want to scare them. I just used a generic “bad people” to say why it was urgent.

Zaydra: Good job.

Clora: Now we must return.

***

*Zaydra and Clora get back to the battle site. Harmona and some other angels remain, but there are dead demons and angels throughout. Zaydra looks eager to know what the result was*

Zaydra: So what happened!?

*Harmona looks both sad and angry*

Harmona: Korobu escaped with Crimson…

***

Narrator: Later that night back in Heaven.

*Zaydra is in a dimly lit bathroom and looks at herself in a mirror. She just keeps staring until she starts seeing flashbacks of Zenfaro and now baby Zeth having darkness put in him*

*Zaydra starts screaming*

Zaydra: Aaahhhh!!

*She starts continuously punching the mirror*

Zaydra: Useless! Useless! Useless! Useless! Useless!!

*The mirror is now significantly cracked. She puts her hands on her face and cries*

Zaydra: I couldn’t protect my baby brother! I’m a failure as a sister!

*As Zaydra continues to cry in the bathroom (the door is open), Harmona stands outside the bathroom out of sight and she just looks like she feels so bad for Zaydra*

Harmona: (Thinking) I’m so sorry, Zaydra…

***

Narrator: Under the care of his stepparents, Zeth grew up as a mortal did. He was taught to act like a proper mortal. He went to school like a mortal. He made friends like a mortal. For all anyone in the Eagle Clan knew, Zeth was just a mortal. Zeth is now 7 years old.

*Kid Zeth is exploring around outside during sunset and finds a cave*

Zeth: Oh, this looks neat.

*Zeth walks up to the cave and peaks inside. Suddenly, a swarm of bats flies out and kid Zeth is terrified. he starts running for his life as the bats chase*

Zeth: No! Stop it! Leave me alone!!

*Zeth runs into a tree because he is looking back at the bats chasing him. The collision gives him a bloody nose and he sits against the tree, terrified as the bats are about to attack him. But suddenly, in the blink of an eye, all the bats are chopped into pieces and their bodies fall to the ground*

*Zeth looks even more frightened and runs away again*

*Not far from there, there are angels sheathing their swords*

Male Angel: (Thinking) Maybe we can’t strike down mortal threats, but nobody told us we can’t strike down animal threats.

*Zeth eventually finds his stepparents, Miranda and Jack. He runs up to Miranda while still crying in fear*

Zeth: *Crying* Mommy! I was just exploring and *sniffs* and there were these bats *sobs* and they chased after me!

Miranda: Oh, Zeth, you need to learn to not come out here.

Jack: Let’s go back home. It’s getting late.

*They start heading back to their home*

***

Narrator: Two years pass. Zeth is now 9 years old.

*Zeth is in his elementary school gym class. The kids are picking partners for an activity*

Zeth: As usual, no one wants to pick me.

*Zeth sighs but then notices a scrawny kid with flat brown hair that does not have a partner either. Zeth walks over to him*

Zeth: Hi, my name is Zeth. What’s your name?

Scrawny Kid: My name is Paul.

Zeth: Well, it’s nice to meet you Paul, and seeing as we are the only ones left without a partner, I guess we are going to be partners. Come on, let’s grab a ball.

*Zeth grabs a ball and then lines up across from Paul. Zeth bounces the ball on the floor toward Paul. Paul grabs it after the bounce*

Zeth: All right, now bounce the ball back to me.

*Paul bounces the ball back to Zeth*

Paul: This is a very simple activity.

Zeth: Yes, but it’s going to be fun.

*They bounce the ball to each other some more*

Zeth: You know what, I think we should be friends.

Paul: You really want to?

Zeth: Yeah! You seem like a cool person.

Paul: Then sure.

***

Narrator: Paul became Zeth’s best friend. They tried to hang out as much as they could. Outside of the love Zeth had from his stepparents, being with Paul was the most happiness that he had known. Still unaware of his true identity as the son of the Light Goddess, he continued moving through life as a mortal. A few more years pass. Zeth is now 12 years old.

*Zeth is at home hanging out with Paul. Meanwhile, Harmona looks down at him from Heaven. Harmona is with her advisors*

Male Advisor 1: Is something the matter?

Harmona: It hurts not having him here in Heaven. He’s my son so I want to watch him grow up in person. He’s almost at the mortal dating age too. If he falls in love with a mortal girl, their relationship would fail because they won’t be able to be together. If only I had my full powers so I could overlook the entire Earth and find Crimson. Right now, we’re no closer to finding Crimson than when we started the search.

Female Advisor 1: It’s okay, my goddess. Crimson can’t be hidden forever. We will find him.

Harmona: I hope so… Zeth… I want you back here… Your home.

***

Narrator: Four more years passed, and Crimson was still not found by Heaven. Zeth is now 16 years old and is in high school. It is March 28th, Year 117.

*Zeth and Paul are sitting in their classroom and the students listen as their teacher speaks. The teacher is a young-looking woman*

Teacher: I hope you all have been getting ready for the class trip in two weeks. We’re going to be visiting some ruins that have been said to belong to an ancient tribe.

Male Student 1: Mrs. Lock. Is it really all that great?

Female Student 1: Yeah, why do we need to go to the ruins if the tribe doesn’t exist anymore?

Mrs. Lock: Because studying history is important. Ancient ruins can really tell someone about the past, even if the builders are no longer around.

*Paul looks at Zeth*

Paul: (Whispering) Are you excited about this trip?

Zeth: (Whispering) I guess it could be interesting. I don’t know what I will take away from the trip though.

*The teacher looks at Zeth and Paul*

Mrs. Lock: And you two. I hope you’re enjoying your conversation. Since you seem to like talking during class, how about you answer a question? So Zeth, what is the accepted belief of when this ancient tribe disappeared?

Zeth: Uh, 5,000 years?

Mrs. Lock: That’s incorrect. It’s believed that they disappeared about 30,000 years ago.

Zeth: Dang it. I’m not getting a gold note toward my intelligence stat… (Author’s Note: This is a Persona 5 reference.)

***

Narrator: After class.

*Zeth and Paul are walking through a school hallway*

Paul: Do you think Mrs. Lock is hyping up this trip too much?

Zeth: Yeah. Probably. She makes it seem like it will be some life-changing experience that sets in stone the direction that the rest of our lives will take.

Paul: Eh? I don’t think I would say she took it that far.

Zeth: You think so? I guess that’s just how I personally saw it. You know what? Let’s not think about it too much right now. After school is done, let’s go get some food and hang out.

Paul: If you want to, sure.

***

Narrator: Two weeks pass. It is now April 11th, Year 117.

*Zeth has his backpack packed and is ready to leave his house. Miranda and Jack look at him*

Miranda: Have fun on your field trip!

Zeth: I will try too, Mom.

Jack: And maybe bring back a girlfriend with you. Haha.

Miranda: Oh Jack. This is for his education, not his love life.

Zeth: I’m just going with my class. Nothing is going to change, Dad. I’m not going to return with a cute girl. All right, I’m off.

*Zeth leaves the house, and Miranda and Jack wave goodbye. Zeth looks back at them and waves back*

Narrator: Little did any of them realize at the time that this would be the last time Zeth is home for over a year.

***

*Later, Zeth, Paul, and the rest of their class are on the bus headed to the ruins. Mrs. Lock is at the front of the bus*

Mrs. Lock: Isn’t this exciting, class!? We’re going to experience history firsthand! It’s so exciting!!

*Zeth and Paul are toward the back of the bus. Zeth puts his hand against his face*

Zeth: The more she hypes this up, the less excited I get.

Paul: I get what you mean.

***

*Later, they arrive at their destination. They all get off the bus and look out at the ancient structures. They are so old that plant life has grown on and around them*

*The bus driver is an old man and remains on the bus*

Bus Driver: Where should I park this bus?

*The bus driver starts driving the bus looking for a place to park it. However, in his way are a bunch of people but only their silhouettes are initially visible*

*The driver slams on the break to stop the bus*

Bus Driver: Hey! Nobody mentioned there would be other visitors right now!

*He honks the horn*

Bus Driver: Get out of the way!

***

*Meanwhile, Mrs. Lock shows the class around the ruins*

Mrs. Lock: This ancient tribe built their structures somewhat differently than how we’ve done so. Some even have theorized that their skeletal structure was different from ours. Truly fascinating, wouldn’t you all say?

*As Mrs. Lock and the class continue moving, Zeth stops and looks at the central structure of the ruins which is taller than all the others. Paul then stops and looks back at Zeth*

Paul: Why are you stopping?

Zeth: I don’t know… Maybe I find these ruins fascinating after all.

Paul: Shouldn’t we keep up with the rest of the class?

Zeth: Go on and catch up with them then. I’m just taking my time.

*Zeth starts walking up to the central structure*

*Paul shrugs*

Paul: I guess I will just stay back with you then.

*Zeth gets close to the central structure. He starts holding out his hand to touch the structure. He has a curious look on his face*

*Zeth puts his hand against the structure, For just one second, He sees a vision of an angry Harmona holding a large meteor and looking down at the Earth. At the same time, his hand glows purple for just one second. He then removes his hand from the structure and puts both of his hands on his head as if he just experienced a major headache*

*Paul runs up to him*

Paul: What just happened!? Your hand glowed purple for a second!

Zeth: I don’t know… I think I saw a woman…

*Suddenly, two small bullets of magic energy head toward them, and both of them are hit on the side of their body by one each. They fall to the ground in pain*

*The attack was released by a muscular man with short blonde hair in a military uniform. The tips of two of his fingers have smoke coming from them*

Man: Bullet Magic is so useful.

*Zeth and Paul are in serious pain as the man starts walking up to them*

Zeth: Who the hell are you!?

Man: Me? I am a member of the Hawk Clan military. We need Eagle Clan slaves to do some… work for us.

*Zeth and Paul look terrified*

Zeth: No!

Paul: Please don’t!

Man: It won’t just be you two. Your whole class will be enslaved.

*The man leans down to grab Zeth and Paul from the ground. But before he does, someone leaps in and hits the man with the palm of their hand which causes the man to be knocked back*

*The man sits up and looks forward angrily*

Man: Who did that!?

*It was Mrs. Lock, who stands in front of Zeth and Paul in a battle position*

Zeth: Mrs. Lock!?

Mrs. Lock: Don’t worry. I’m here now.

Man: The teacher? You must have a lot of guts to attack me.

Mrs. Lock: I may be a teacher but I am trained in combat and I will not allow you to hurt my students! How dare you try to ruin their education!

*Mrs. Lock begins rushing toward the man*

*The man starts releasing magic bullets from his fingertips*

*Mrs. Lock is able to dodge them and then gets close to the ma. She starts repeatedly hitting him with the palms of her hand. She then charges her hands with magic and proceeds to thrust her arms forward. A wave of magic is released and blows the man back*

Mrs. Lock: You seem like the long-range attacker but I bet you can’t handle someone who can hit you with close-range attacks. You can call my magic Palm Magic. I’m best able to release my magic through my palms.

*The man wipes blood from his face and stands up*

Man: Don’t get cocky…

*The man grins*

Man: …Because it’s all over.

*Mrs. Lock looks puzzled*

Mrs. Lock: In what way?

*Suddenly, someone comes down from above and kicks Mrs. Lock into the dirt. It’s a blonde-haired woman wearing a military uniform*

Zeth: No!!

Paul: Mrs. Lock!!

Man: Sorry for not telling you about my sister who does specialize in close combat.

*The woman pins Mrs. Lock down*

Mrs. Lock: How did you know about this trip!?

Man: How did we know? It’s less that we knew and more that we have been keeping surveillance on Eagle Clan activities.

*Suddenly, the bus drives into the area and stops*

Mrs. Lock: The bus?

*The door of the bus opens and the old man’s body falls out of it. He is dead*

Mrs. Lock: No!!

Man: Sorry, but as far as enslaving people goes, an old fart like him is worthless so we offed him.

*The rest of the class is brought into the area but they have been rounded up by other Hawk Clan members*

Mrs. Lock: No! You can’t do this!!

Man: But we can. All of you are going to be enslaved.

***

Narrator: A bit later.

*The bus is driving away from the ruins*

*The entire class is on the bus as the Hawk Clan drives it away. They all look terrified*

Paul: What’s going to happen to us?

Zeth: I don’t know, man. Our lives might be over.

***

Narrator: The Hawk Clan capturing of the class came as a major blow to those that Zeth was important to.

*Miranda and Jack look devastated*

Jack: How can this be!? The class disappeared!?

Miranda: I should have forbidden him from going on this trip… (Thinking) The Hawk Clan must have captured Zeth and everyone else in that class. I believe… that Zeth’s powers will finally awaken. And when they do, he will free himself and make his way back here. The future of his life is now in motion.

Narrator: There were signs of battle at the ruins but Eagle Clan officials could not say for sure that it was the result of the Hawk Clan. Search parties were sent out but nobody was found.

***

Narrator: In Heaven.

*Harmona is with her advisors and she is very angry*

Harmona: Zeth has been kidnapped!

Male Advisor 1: By who!? Demons!?

Harmona: No. It’s humans.

Female Advisor 1: That makes this tricky for us. We can’t interfere in mortal affairs.

Male Advisor 2: But Lady Harmona has done so before! She should do it again!

Female Advisor 1: And that resulted in the extinction of an entire mortal race! We can’t do it!

Male Advisor 2: This is for the prince! Do you not get that!?

Harmona: Stop arguing! The both of you!

*Her advisors look at her*

Harmona: I’m angry about this. Believe me. But it is possible for him to be freed without us interfering.

Male Advisor 1: How would that be, my goddess?

Harmona: While he was at the Zoren ruins, we briefly had a connection and that connection briefly awakened his magic. His magic will now slowly start to permanently awaken on its own, and when it does, he will be able to free himself.

Female Advisor 2: How long will that take?

Harmona: That I don’t know. Hopefully, no longer than a year.

*Harmona looks down on Earth and sees Zeth in a prison cell with Paul*

Harmona: You will go through horrible experiences, my son. But in the future, your power will bring forth the winds of freedom.

Narrator: And so, this origin story for Zeth comes to an end. For one year will pass and Zeth will feel the winds of freedom as his journey as the son of the Light Goddess begins.
