Rukal and Lakspura mated and produced four children: Loki, Ekanel, Spiro, and Polyphamora. They lived among the animals and learned to disguise themselves from danger, and learned the language of the beasts. As chaos was still very strong in the blood of humans, their offspring had many mutations. Of the four, two, Loki and Ekanel, appeared slightly serpentine. During childhood, as the foursome was out hunting in the woods for small animals, Loki and Ekanel killed and ate Spiro and Polyphamora, much to the surprise of their parents. Rukal and Lakspura, realizing that it was best for the strong and crafty to survive, never even commented on the deaths. Loki and Ekanel lived long and produced many offspring, some of which became the forebears of the modern Serpentlords.

All the Offspring had children, but some warrant particular attention. Elara and Carme had a great number of children, but the strongest two were Glanos and Sahart. They both, Sahart first, then Glanos, seduced and impregnated Enalia, daughter of Pasiphae and Balan, who was himself the son of Ledo and Himalia, two of Pasiphae's fellow Offspring. Of them, more will be said later, for the story of Glanos and Sahart and their descendants is the story of mankind.

Epitus, the brother of Enalia (daughter of Pasiphae and Balan) had a close relationship with the Gods. He was extremely pious and the Gods almost universally looked upon him with good will. His great-great-granddaughter, Imithia built the first formal temple and later the first church. The first rite held in the new Church was the Rite of Ending for Pasiphae, the last of the Offspring who was not either dead or missing.
