The Gods

The gods are two immensely powerful beings that created the world. They are two brothers, the elder being the God of Light and the younger being the God of Darkness. The God of Light created life, while the God of Darkness created agents of death, including the Creatures of Grimm. At one point, they compromised and created Humans together; the God of Darkness even gifted them magic.

However, when Salem convinced humanity to rebel against the gods, the God of Darkness destroyed them all except Salem, and the two gods abandoned Remnant, shattering the Moon in the process. As humanity (and the Faunus) reemerge, this time without magic or the guidance of the gods, the God of Light left behind Relics in hopes that humanity will make themselves whole again. If the four Relics are collected, the gods will return to the world and judge humanity.
