Yet all of them are under the control of their lord, TheOneBehindThemAll, within their religion called [[Veritasism]]. == Biography == The Petrified Companions is a collective of the four main deities, proclaimed by the the One Behind Them All, as the leader is the God of Despair. The Lord is above TPC. Each deity has their own realm, connected to the others, forming the "Inner Realms.”’ [[File:The Inner and Outer Realms TPC.png|left|thumb|206x206px|Visual Representation of The Inner and Outer realms]] Estiothra is the name of the universe The Petrified Companions reside in, which is made up of different universes, or rather, inner and outer realms. The inner realms are the connection to the deities' realm, while every other realm is the outer realm. They have their own custom language as well. In the logo, those letters spell out “The Petrified Companions.” Three eras make up their history. [[File:The Six Art created by TheDespairedOne.jpg|thumb|The six deities of the First Era]] The First Era had six deities. One of their names is Form, and the original ruler of TheDespairedOne’s current realm, The Depths of Despair. The Second Era had four main deities. The only current god known is Velotames, the god of death. After some time of their existence, TheOneAboveThemAll decided it was their time to go. The deities resisted, which brought up The Great War that current civilians and deities are studying to this day. The Luamen guards were created during this period, and the four current surviving soldiers guard the four deities that exist in the third era. The Third Era is the current day, which consists of the four new deities. TheDespairedone, TheFourthOne, TheDecayingDarling and KingOfTheGemFlower. There used to be a fifth deity, Mother_Abyss, but she was later killed by Fourth. There are two afterlives. Medolita, their version of heaven, and Lohuterra, their version of hell. Medolita is described as a utopia, with statues that are covered in moss, vines, and flowers. In Lohuterra, it's only a long bridge with salt at the bottom. A mortal would've fallen, gotten injured, and the salt would've only increased their suffering. Over time, they would slowly turn into a rusted statue. == History == The Petrified Companions started out as a sub-myth to a Noli cult called [https://www.roblox.com/communities/33947902/VOIDISM Voidism]. TheDespairedOne, the owner of TPC, introduced TheOneAboveThemAll character to Voidism, which started the separation of both groups. Slowly, but still supporting each other, both groups went on their own path as more and more of The Petrified Companions' backstory and world-building were being created. Alongside that, the myth is inspired by Shadelight and an old book written by Mark Twain, The Mysterious Stranger. The group started to fall off, officially going on a hiatus on May 15th, 2025, but soon got a relaunch once summer started on July 15th, 2025, with a The Myth Union investigation of their game following shortly after. == Myth Affiliated Members == '''[[TheDespairedOne]]''' '''[https://www.roblox.com/users/4720122909/profile TheLiminalOne]''' TheLiminalOne, also known in lore as TheFourthOne, Iter, or simply Fourth, is the god of chaos and co-owner of The Petrified Companions. His past is unknown, either because he didn't care to tell players or because he genuinely didn't remember. His death was caused by disrespecting TheOneAboveThemAll in his human life, and then TheOneAboveThemAll made him a deity. Although with Fourth’s rebellious nature, TheOneAboveThemAll only keeps him around for him to stay miserable, yet Fourth insists he’s thriving. On August 25th, 2024, Fourth killed Mother_Abyss, Decay’s wife, both to make fun of her, and to take Mother_Abyss' throne on the podium. He has a game called "[https://www.roblox.com/games/78783212093443/Disorder Disorder]".
