You Who Carves a Future of Sunlit Gold by Mabibards (KatherosLibra)

Summary
Gather the children of humanity in whose veins golden blood flows to gather the Coreflames of the slumbering Titans.
Cleanse them of the accumulated miasma of the Black Tide.
Usher in a new age of peace across Amphoreus.
Such are the directives of the holy ritual of the Flame Chase, meant to be held every century since the first incursion of the Black Tide. And yet it has been a millennium since the last ritual took place, and ended in abject failure. The Black Tide's miasma spreads across the land more and more with each year, poisoning the earth and warping living beings into monsters. From the Holy City of Okhema the shooting star of the first Demigod flies once more to call to all Chrysos Heirs across the world.
In the isolated village of Aedes Elysiae, the one who will become the Deliverer will at long last be found by fate's threads to determine the future of all.

Summary
The first time it happens Taliesin thinks nothing of it.
It becomes harder to ignore or to pin it all on the stubborn behavior of a spoiled child as each new encounter with Gwydion it reoccurs over and over, through the many centuries. Really, Taliesin would be happiest if the god of mischief would leave him be.
