Before mankind gave names to monsters, there were seven beings beyond creation. They were not gods, for gods were born from belief. They were not demons, for demons belonged to worlds that had already been created. They existed before the first stars, before time was given direction, and before reality learned how to distinguish existence from nothingness. They are known only as the Seven Primordials. Vorsmaken, the Devourer of Countless Dimensions. Oathluier, the Guardian of the River of Time. Yuatrelka, the Cosmic Beast That Feeds Upon Stars. Westhal, the One Whose Embrace Encompasses Millions of Verses. Terathlu, whose claws reach across countless galaxies. Olaferth, whose breath can freeze entire galaxies. Hartyula, the small creature that devours anything. No mortal has ever truly understood them. Some civilizations worshipped them. Others tried to destroy them. Some simply prayed that the Primordials would never notice their existence. This is not a story about heroes who defeated ancient gods. This is an attempt to record what happened when lesser beings looked upon something that existed before the concept of gods itself. These are their myths. These are their testimonies. And these are the fragments of history left behind by those who were unfortunate enough to witness the Seven.

Both levers trail the field
Traffic and conversion are both below comparable stories. Cadence is the first lever — stories posting near-daily reached 25 followers 17% of the time; stories posting every few days almost never did. Get the flow going, then re-check conversion.
Benchmarks: 8,060 active Royal Road stories, percentiles within the 50–149 chapters band, cohort of 2026-07-02. Conversion is measured as followers gained per 1,000 views over the recent window.
