La armonía se ha mantenido así durante siglos ,hasta que la Humanidad ha cambiado su postura ante estos seres con Gracia. En la actualidad, Dioses y Hombres libran épicas batallas en las metrópolis ,arrasando los templos que dan protección a estos mitos, pues el hombre siempre codicia el poder divino, sin saber, que la divinidad solo es otorgada a unos pocos.
