Seeds of Destruction
Ancient prophecies of the chosen few who will determine the fate of the world in The Apocalypse have been passed down from generation to generation. The prophecies speek of a handful of seeds, though no one knows if these are litteral seeds, it is known they each represent a harbinger. Of what is also unknown but the seeds are given the name Seeds of Destruction in the prophecies. Several apocalypse have come and have been averted but The Authority has always known that these were just precursors of what was soon to come. The stars have aligned according to the scrolls and the signs are all evident, the Seeds of Destruction have been planted.
