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.
How is it "falsely" translated? Who's the authority on this?
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.
Like the ebb and flow of an infinite sea
Beyond Sirius and the starry highways
Stone spirals and copper coils in time
The alchemy of the seven phases, secrets untold
World, life, crystals, pain, loss, detachment, and revelation
Patience under hot suns
Nomadic symphonies, operas are grown
Melodies of distant lands, lay waste to the unknown
Compelling thе broken to heal and the hеalers to learn
They were the last of the parallel descendants
Beyond the stars, and the endless expanse they transcend
Reborn into the alchemy of the seven phases
World, life, death, pain, loss, detachment, and revelation
Sirens of war slowly walking from the abyss
Where heartbeats and bloodlines achieve the alchemy of seven phases
World, life, change, pain, loss, detachment, and revelation
