🌊 I. The Birth of the Abyssal Tide
"From the weeping shadow of the moon and the last ember of dawn, fell a single drop of light. It struck the abyss and became the sea — and from that sea rose Leonel, the Dragon of Ice and Depth."
— Book of Luminous Eclipse, Verse IV:2
When Noir Atremus sought to give balance to flame and silence, he shaped a third child — one born of calm, patience, and unyielding might.
From the convergence of Baal's scorched sky and Nathan's quiet night came the ocean, a mirror that reflected both.
Thus rose Leonel, the Dragon of the Abyss, a god whose soul is both storm and stillness.
🌫️ II. The Serpent Beneath the Waves
Leonel's form is ever-shifting: sometimes a towering figure draped in silver frost, sometimes a colossal dragon with scales like frozen starlight.
When he speaks, the air crystallizes; when he breathes, the waves obey.
His presence is both dreadful and divine — the tranquil sea that hides infinite depth, and the raging tide that swallows empires.
Unlike his brothers, Leonel rarely ascends to the heavens. He watches from beneath the surface, ruling the silent abyss and the frozen edges of creation.
⚓ III. His Divine Authority
1. God of Oceans, Storms, and Depths
He commands all waters — rivers, seas, and the endless cosmic oceans that flow between worlds. Every tide and current is bound to his heartbeat.
2. Ruler of Tides and Frozen Seas
He governs the cycles of motion and stillness, the ebb and flow of emotion, the rise and fall of civilizations. His frost preserves what fire cannot.
3. Guardian of Lost Worlds Beneath the Deep
Countless civilizations have drowned beneath time's weight — yet their memories are not gone. Leonel shelters them in his abyss, frozen in crystal cities beneath his domain.
4. Judge of Serenity and Rage
To him, emotion is a storm. He teaches mortals and gods alike that serenity is not weakness — it is control over destruction.
🌪️ IV. The Frozen War and the Birth of the Deep Court
When the Sea of Creation was invaded by cosmic leviathans born from the Abyss Below, Leonel waged the Frozen War — a battle that lasted centuries beneath blackened water.
He unleashed the Tempest Roar, a divine cry that shattered mountains and froze half the ocean in an instant.
From that frozen battlefield arose his eternal kingdom — Abyssus Glaciem, the Deep Court — a realm of glacial palaces and sleeping titans.
There, Leonel sits upon the Throne of Still Water, watching the surface world with cold compassion.
🌨️ V. Faith, Temples, and Symbols
His worshipers are the Tidewardens, sailors, mystics, and prophets who read the voice of the waves.
They believe that death is not an end, but a return to Leonel's depths — a slumber in the sea of eternity.
Temples of Leonel are carved into cliffs and beneath glaciers, filled with the soft hum of flowing water.
Priests wear robes of pale blue and white, adorned with coral sigils. Their sacred rite: the Rite of Stillness, where they sink into icy water to glimpse divine visions.
His symbol: a spiral of frost encircled by dragon wings, representing eternity turning within calm.
Their prayer:
"In calm, we endure. In depth, we awaken."
❄️ VI. Relation to Noir and His Brothers
Leonel is the pillar of stillness among the divine sons — where Baal burns and Nathan dreams, Leonel endures.
He is said to hold the memory of the first ocean Noir wept when creating balance — the "Tears of the Creator."
He respects Baal's fire but keeps it at bay, for water remembers even what flame forgets.
He and Nathan share deep kinship, for both guard the hidden: Nathan keeps dreams; Leonel, memories lost to time.
Noir calls him "My Patience, My Depth."
🌊 VII. The Hymn of the Abyss
"When fire dies and shadow sleeps,
the sea shall whisper the world awake.
Beneath the glass of frozen tide,
He waits —
The Dragon who dreams in blue silence."
— The Hymn of the Abyss, Verse 17
Leonel is the quiet storm, the guardian of both memory and ruin.
He does not rage; he endures. He is not the sea's wrath — he is the sea itself: vast, eternal, and unbroken.
The mortals know him as Cthulhu, but the gods whisper his true name with reverence —
Leonel, the Abyss That Dreams.
