   When nothingness and everything become one, what will happen? The world will reach cathartic heaven, for whatever gaps have befallen humanity betwixt Arceus' and Giratina's creation, all the violence and sin humanity have wrought, will cease to be. Paradise will be upon all those who survive.

   At least, that's what the extremist sect of Divinity of Fusion ( frequently shortened to DoF in Interpol documentations ) believed. They'd been functioning for over half a century, perhaps longer. The Divinity of Fusion embarked on a campaign of political assassination and opportunistic replacement of key governmental figures to seize control and to establish perceived social order across regions. Shortly after the world trembled before one Team Galactic, and more specifically, Cyrus, the Divinity of Fusion had replaced approximately 7 figures of importance over the course of 10 years. They were deemed high risk by Interpol.

   Mika. He was a hesitant believer of Arceism, specifically New Arceism, though for the most part avoided talks of religion unless it specifically benefited him. Mika was a spiteful, bitter piece of work.

   He was a con artist by day and night, specialising in assuming alternate identities. Mostly to thief money and goods away from those unsuspecting. One of his specialties was, in fact, a priest of New Arceism. He was so good at his job, falsifying documentation and references, that when the Divinity of Fusion sought one priest of Arceus and one priest of Giratina, they picked him. The selection was under the guise of partaking in a friendly debate, with the promise of plenty of cash shortly thereafter. The debate winner, upon poll, would also receive an extra sum of money.

   But, instead, the two priests were set up as a way of aiding the bridge between them and the gods.

   On a muggy night in spring, the Divinity of Fusion managed to summon Arceus and Giratina.

   Arceus eventually tore away from these humans' meddlings—whether this was because Arceus is harder to maintain a summoning with, or because Mika wasn't an actual priest of Arceus, no one knows—and Giratina remained. Giratina ended up what predominantly melded with Mika's psyche. Feelings, emotions—ones exclusively tied to the god pokémon, their minds, for but a fleeting second, touching—all came rushing in. The actual priest of Giratina were to receive the brunt of Giratina's soul and succumbed some moments later.

   Anger. That's what resonated with Mika—their common ground. Whether it was anger at being summoned so recklessly and thoughtlessly, or historic anger towards being banished, Mika can't be certain.

   But that's what his path became consumed by. That's how his life veered off course.
