Parallel Descendants (myth)

The myth of the Parallel Descendants is a fringe belief held by the Milkwalker doomsday cult. It asserts that the "Parallel Descendants" are a group of prophesied "chosen ones" that are said to bring about a major cataclysmic change in the universe once all of them die.

The prophecy of the change of the universe (more commonly falsely translated as the end of the universe) has been passed down for centuries for various ancient texts and oral traditions. Interestingly, most cultures seem to have some form of the Parallel Descendant prophecy, even though their interpretations differ vastly.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the prophecy, many people throughout history have searched for the Parallel Descendants, hoping to find and protect them. Some have even claimed to be one of the chosen ones themselves, although these claims have proven to be false.

Due to the different cultures all synthesising their own specific version of the prophecy, it is difficult to find a commonly accepted "canon" version of the prophecy's content. The following is a translation of the Erisian version of the prophecy poem, as discovered on the Tablets of Truth in the caves of Tallis City in -241.
