《Until death? (Old Version)》11. Interlude - Another judgement!
Advertisement
Just a small chapter, i forgot about. I guess i will use it, before i decide to not use it at all.
################################
I wake up in a white place. I sit up and take a look around, its just endless white plains! Nothing is here. It is the worst outcome possible....
I am dead!
This is the river of souls, or what a mind that doesn't want to go insane can perceive of it at least. How did this happen! My memories are just a mashed up pile of fragments. I... I was fighting. Yes, I was fighting that bastard!
And I was winning! His broken, bloody body was lying before me! At last, after all this time I had him to my feet and at my whim! Then he raised his hand and fired that small fireball at me!
No need to dodge such a weak spell! I just stood there grinning! Oh, what an idiot I was. The pain was unbelievable, as everything went red and I could feel my soul being torn apart! I could have dodged it so easily.
It hurt so much, but.... but why am I here now?
“Are you yourself again Myrm?”
I turn around, “S... Seria? What happened? Why are we here?”
Seria is there. The goddess of life and death for this realm.
“You fought with Ascathon. And he killed you.” -Seria
“Yes, I …...”, I don't know what to say.....
“Your soul was torn apart, it took me quite a while to piece you back together.” -Seria
I try to get to my feet, but I am weak and fall back to all fours, “So that bastard defeated me! Where is he now! Surely he is watching and laughing, is he not!?”
Seria goes to her knees and drops a black marble before me.

“No, he is dead too. He died shortly after you, from the wounds you inflicted on him. I put his soul into that marble for safekeeping.”, she says sadly.
“Why would you do that?”, I don't understand.
“To have you both be judged by the council. And since you were quite a piece of work Myrm, I had to keep him from resurrecting.” -Seria
The council? But why should they care? They don't move a finger at the fate of worlds! Such matters don't concern them!
“But... But why. The council ….”, but Seria interrupts me.
“Oh, my Myrm. You are the same as Ascathon. He didn't get what you two did either......”, Seria has a sad look in her eyes now.
“I get it! We trashed a world! And what about it! If we wouldn't have taken action ourselves it would have ended badly one or the other way.”, I am angry.
“hahaha.... the council doesn't care what you did to that world. Or its inhabitants. It wouldn't care if you destroyed a universe. That happens everywhere, at all times. And the same way everything is reborn again. The Council is angry at you for another reason. You two will be punished for something, the council regards as something far worse than those little reasons you talk about. And I was chosen to supervise your punishment.”
Seria smiles weakly.
Tears well up in my eyes, “So what can be worse than destroying a world!”
Seria sighs,
“I guess you two are too young to ever understand in time, so I will tell you. You have killed each other! You two have killed that, which cannot be killed.. You broke the divinity. You ended the unending. That hasn't happened in all existence. And the council is afraid of what that could mean.”
Seria waves her hand before my eyes and everything goes dark.

Twilight over Arcania
SynopsisA child dies in an alley, but it's not the end.A mysterious entity known as Voice saves the child.The child is reborn in a world named Arcania. A world where magic exists.With a second chance at life, what will the child do in this strange new world?Rebirth Arc (17 chapters - Complete)Liara is reborn in the world of Arcania as a baby. She must grow, and learn of this strange new world.Twilight Arc (Ongoing)Liara makes a place of herself in the world and learns of Arcania and what will happen if she does not intervene.Author's NoteWhat you can expect from this storyThis novel is my take on the resurrection theme. I wanted to write a resurrection story with every element I liked about the theme, but without the elements I disliked. This is the story of Liara. MC's second go at life in a world where magic is real.Arcania is not a nice place. It is my answer to the question "How would civilizations develop if powerful magic was real and widespread enough." I try hard to make a large consistent story in a large consistent world. There will be lots of characters and organizations built to various levels of depth. The story starts small and grows in size and scope.I try to avoid plot armor as much as I can. You can expect at least MC to make it alive quite far in the story. It's the MC's story after all.I spent time building the world before beginning with the writing itself. How continents are shaped, the evolutionary history of the species, the history of the world, the structure of the solar system, the rules of magic, etc... I have planned the whole overarching plot. I have a clear ending in mind.There will be lots of battles and action. From large scale magic battles between immensely powerful beings to small skirmishes. Expect fights to be bloody. In Arcania, magic is just another set of law of physics. It's a natural phenomenon with clear rules to it. Gods exists, they are absolute being that see humanity like a human would see an ant. They are not just really powerful individuals. They act rarely, and indirectly.What this story will not beThere will be no harem element and little to no romance or sex in this story.There will be some comedy and comic relief, but Arcania in general is not a nice place.Fights will be bloody, but I won't write gory descriptions.
