AltarTale

***These Informations are canon to the SagaVerse Reality only.***

## General Information

AltarTale is an AU that revolved around a single holy Altar of the Ravin Kingdom. The Altar is a place where sacrifices were made to the gods to make the kingdom prosper and wealthy. The kingdom is ruled by the current King Tar Tar (Altar!Asgore) who unlike the previous kings demanded that the kingdom's territory be expanded to the nearby kingdoms. This led to the gods demanded more sacrifices than before and so Tar tar sacrificed many of it's people to the gods on the Altar.

Tar Tar's sacrificial ritual satisfied the gods and enchanted his entire army with invincible power to expand their territory to the nearby kingdoms. War was inevitable. And the enchanted army led by Tar Tar managed to bring havoc upon the other kingdom's army and was forced to surrender parts of their territory to the Ravin Kingdom. At first, it was all over and the people of Ravin would enjoy their new expanded territory.

They're wrong. Tar Tar became obsessed with the sacrificial ritual that granted him and his army invincible power. Soon, he would be sacrificing more and more of his own people and even sacrificing those that aren't volunteering to become a sacrifice for the gods. The people of Ravin would soon enough realized that their king have gone mad with power, and would probably ordered his army to sacrifice his entire people if it means his wishes come true.

## Storyline

Altair (Altar!Muffet) is the foster-daughter of Tar tar. She was adopted by him when she was only a baby, and was soon enough be destined to be the next holy Altar's priest. Becoming the one who commend the sacrifice itself. Years after years she was doctrined and trained to be the next Altar Priest, but all it did was making her question the Altar and the gods themselves. Why would they need sacrifices when they're so powerful? Why would they need a corpse to make something come true? Why would these people voluntarily lend their body to the altar? Can't the gods just give the people what they wanted?

All of those questions made her a bulllying target by her friends, all except two. The son of the Royal Blacksmith, Redos (Altar!Gaster). And the son of the Royal Knight, Shryne (Altar!Grillby). The three of them became best friends since the two of them also questions the Altar's ritual and how it affected the kingdom as a whole.

Years passed again and Tar tar have gone mad from the Altar's sacrificial power. Altair cannot stand her foster-dad's action against his own people for his own gain, both Redos and Shryne who have taken over their parents' royal duty have also taken her side of cursing Tar Tar's maddening action to satisfy the gods. For the three of them the solution was clear, they have to put an end to that Altar, no matter how holy it is. Simply sacrificing an entire kingdom for power is not something they'll stand behind for.

The three of them then decided to overthrow Tar Tar, but they would need to know how many people have seen the madness that is the ritual and how well their idea would be taken by others. And so slowly but surely they're going from one city to another gathering followers and army to put an end to Tar Tar and the Altar, but this would then be sniffed by Tar Tar who was given enhanced senses by the gods. And so the Three of them would be captured and imprisoned.

Tar Tar was furious to know that his own foster-daughter would betray him, not to mention she was going to be the next Altar Priest like he had doctrined and trained her to be. And so he would make her pay by sacrificing the two of her friends before her own ritual, but Altair's years and years of experience with the how the Altar worked gave her an advantage over the old Altar Priest and sacrificed them instead. And before anyone could react she would put Tar Tar as her hostage and slowly walked towards the altar with him.

Terrified, Tar tar begged her to let go of him. But Altair simply replied, ***"You're begging me for mercy? How about begging your GODS for one?! OH GODS OF THE ALTAR! GODS OF THE RAVIN PEOPLE! OH MERCY US PLEACE ACCEPT THIS SACRIFICE OF A KING FOR THE GOOD OF THE RAVIN PEOPLE THAT HE BETRAYED FOR HIS OWN GREED!"***

***"ACCEPT THIS FILTH THAT HAVE LEECHED OFF OF YOU GODS FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND HAVE PUT THE KINGDOM INTO MISERY AND DESPAIR! PLEASE ACCEPT YOUR FILTHY KING OH ALL MIGHTY GODS OF THE ALTAR!!!"*** As she chanted those words, beams of light strucked down from the dark sky above encapsulating the two of them who stood on top of the altar. Tar Tar would scream in agony as the beam would evaporated his body and Altair's body would vanish without a trace as the beam stopped and the sky cleared up.

Altair would reappear inside a dark void, a dark, empty, and blank void. She would try to yell out to find help but there was nothing except echoes. Until suddenly the void would talk to her and asked her how is she alive when others came to them dead, she would ask if they are the Altar Gods but the void would ask back on how is she still alive. She answered that she chanted the ritual spell by having the king as her sacrifice while also being on the altar as well. The void would then laughed and complimented her on her achievement to kill Tar Tar. Confused, she asked the void on why would the Altar Gods require sacrifices as the need to grant upon the kingdom's wish.

The void would answer that they are amused by how simple minded and easily manipulated the people of Ravin are by using a single altar to control an entire kingdom, and in change for their amusement and worthless sacrifices, the void would give them a fraction of what they wished to make them addicted to the sacrifices. Making the kingdom sacrificing their people year by year, month by month, over and over again for centuries. Realizing the horrific reality of the situation her kingdom's in for centuries, Altair would crumble down and tear up. All of the sacrifices and death caused by the Altar only to realize that they're all just amusement and play thing for the "Gods". She felt hopeless, and was left alone in the void for a long time.

That is until she remembered something she heard from Shryne, who was given the responsibility by his parents to keep something a secret. Shryne said to her from what he heard from his parents, ***"My mom said that one's power can be stolen by others if they are determined enough to have that power the other has. My dad then said that he was given a dream, that a child have stolen a god's power simply by being more determined than god itself".*** He would then babled about the god being in form of a flower, and the child would be in a striped shirt which seems insane to her at that time.

But... now? Nothing's insane to her anymore, no, nothing is SANE enough to keep her from trying what myth she was told before. She would began to chant her spells towards the dark void around her, which would be returned with a loud shout of a question of what she is trying to do. She ignored the question and would keep on focusing a stealing spell and most of all staying determined. The void would roar and attacked her with darkness and despair, but she stayed determined no matter how hurtful the attacks are. She would yell out louder and louder her steal spell as her eyes would turn bright red, filling bright with determination.

***"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"*** The void roared as the red light would began to illuminate the entire void. ***"HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! HOW ARE YOU MORE DETERMINED THAN US?!".*** The void asked in anxious as Altair would slowly walk over towards the leftover darkness in front of her. She did not answer as she kept on chanting her stealing spell. The void would keep on roaring and shouting in pain until the entirety of the void is illuminated in a red colour.

The void would then reveal itself as a slender tall being who then splatted onto the floor of the red void. Only then Altair would stop chanting her spell and answered the slender being's question. ***"Because i am determined to save my people from further play time, and to finally end this filthy altar mess that have broken my kingdom for centuries. YOU on the other hand, aren't even a challenge for me in terms of will power with all that cockiness and pride. And that is why you lose, sorry excuse for gods***" And with a snap of a finger the slender being would vapour away while screaming in agony.

Altair, now can be considered the new "Goddess". Is left alone in a dark void after the red illumination vanished. She would then summon an orange coloured button titled RESET and looked at it before chanting another spell. ***"By my own will power, i deemed this world to be reset to it's prime time of peace and prosperity and without a single altar in the entire realm of existence in this world. I AM DETERMINED TO KEEP THIS PEACE ETERNAL!"*** As she pushed the button and resetted the world clean without any altars, gods, or anything that could disturb the peace in her world. Her friends are back, everyone who was sacrificed were resurrected including Tar Tar who would retire and gave the crown to Altair. She would become the sworn protector of her realm for all of her time...

And so that was the story of AltarTale... or so it would seem that way.

## Characters

### Altair (Altar!Muffet)

She is a very interested person, loves to discover new things and questions a lot of illogical myth that the kingdom always believed in for centuries. And they way she thinks made her a bully target for the other kids except Redos and Shryne, who then became her best friends. In the end of the story she became a determination wielder after defeating the "Altar Gods" and then taking form as a "Goddess" disguised as the kingdom's Queen.

### Shryne (Altar!Grillby)

He was not only the son of the Royal Knight, but he was also the wielder of the Inferno Sword that can cut through almost anything. He became the Royal Knight after showing his worth to the king and almost instantly planned to overthrow him with the rebellion. After he and the rest were captured, he gave a one hell of a fight before he was sacrificed alongside Redos to the Altar Gods. In his new life after the timeline reset, he would become the Queen's personal guard and... well, having a personal affair with her in secret.

### Redos (Altar!Gaster)

Redos is the son of the Royal Blacksmith who soon would become the Royal Blacksmith himself. He is a master of the arts of weaponry and tools and would be the main supplier of the rebellion's weapons before it was cut short by Tar Tar's army. He was then sacrificed alongside Shryne on the altar before he could do anything to help Altair. In his new life after Altair resetted the timeline, he would become the greatest blacksmith known to the realm.

### Tar Tar (Altar!Asgore)

Tar Tar wasn't always the mad king he was shown in the story, before he was throned he was actually a decent guy who loved his kids and even Altair who was an adopted kid. But after he was enthroned the new king, the power of the altar corrupted his minds and he went mad with power by all means necessary. He was furious when he found out his foster-daughter, Royal Knight, and Royal Blacksmith were building a rebellion against his regime. He sacrificed the latter two but he was sacrificed by his own daughter on the altar shortly after. In the new fresh timeline, he retired as the king and went to live peacefully on a green hill far from civilization.

### "The Altar Gods"/Void being

No information about them except that they were the former determination wielder of the AU and that they're a slender and tall being.
