《The Titanic Fanatic》Chapter 5 - A New Obligation
Advertisement
John stayed silent. He wanted to ask so many questions about what he just witnessed, but he couldn’t bring himself to speak. Watching this friendly Titan fade away into Tartarus, John was shocked.
Throughout his visions, he had never seen, but only very slightly felt some of the unspeakable horrors placed in Tartarus. Some ancients beings were so powerful and so savage, that only the Primordial God Tartarus himself could suppress them in his domain.
One thing John did know, however, was that Coeus and most of the Titans did not at all belong there. In fact, John thought that Tartarus was actually the perfect place for a monster like Zeus. As John was thinking, he heard Coeus’ voice in his head, even though his body was almost completely gone.
I have shown you all that I was able. I trust that you can make the correct the decision for Mankind, and even the Universe, from here. Coeus said.
“I want to help. Truly, I do... but I can’t. I am just a mere mortal. I saw the power that the immortals wield. What am I supposed to do?” John implored.
You are no longer a mere mortal, my boy. You now have the Power of a Titan running in your veins. However, it will take time for you to learn how to use this power to its fullest, Coeus revealed in John’s mind.
John’s eyes widened in surprise and shock. “What? The power of a Titan? That’s impossible! I’ve seen what your kind could do! You could move mountains and destroy kingdoms!” John exclaimed. Quickly, John realized that his emotions were taking over and quickly regained his composure.
He focused and cleared his mind to the best of his ability. The last thing he should do at this point is doubt this Titan, who had shared his life’s most important experiences with him. He wanted to feel this power.

He tried to feel it, concentrated on the Titanic Power pulsing through his veins... but he felt no different.
Until the moment he did.
It was nothing much. Just a little flicker of sorts that he felt in his mind. If nothing else, this flicker gave him the indication that he contains extreme power, but he is unable to harness it at the moment. John didn’t quite understand how he came to this conclusion, but he trusted it. John guessed it was probably gut instinct.
Regardless, he turned his attention back to the fading Coeus. The Titan was almost gone, but John could still feel him in some way. As if... he was feeling the very essence of the being that is Coeus. But not just him. John felt another presence as well, and it seemed very familiar.
Realization dawned on him. Rax! He’s still looking for the exit! But then another realization dawned on him. I can feel other being’s presences now? John inferred, this Titanic Power is truly real!
If John didn’t fully believe any of this was happening or that he was gifted power, he sure did now.
But he still had one question. “Why me?” he asked to seemingly nobody, as at this point Coeus had all but disappeared. “Out of all the people in the world, why me?”
Surprisingly, the last vestiges of Coeus was still there to give him an answer, albeit a vague one. I was searching for a potential savior from the moment my essence escaped Tartarus temporarily. I then had help from a friend who gave me enough time to find one: you. You were the only human that I found in this world that was intelligent, driven, and reasonable enough to bear great power, while having a burning desire to be a great savior of humanity at the same time....

At this moment, John felt the last of Coeus return to Tartarus.
He sighed. I only wanted to save humanity from its own utter stupidity... Never in my wildest dreams did I expect that I would have to save humanity from the one that claims to protect it!
John looked up at the black ceiling, and slowly he started to see through it and saw the stars beyond, gazing into the night sky.
Now, he makes a decision that changes the course of his life forever.
"Zeus, I will destroy you! I will show the world the truth and set everyone against you! I will bring back the Titans to rule the Universe and bring about a new Golden Age! Zeus, Mark my Words!"

An eye that serves a purpose but nothing in exchange for his freedom. Will he remain as a tool of his adversary or escape from his own shackles of fate? This is a story of two old men trying to free from the shackle of their destiny set in a future only to await their impending doom. This is a story of a dead god, and of a storyteller, trying to break from the bonds of the past. And as their stories go, one of them will face the events that unfold in their distant past, as the other one will unveil its mystery predicted by its future. Is it a mistake to challenge fate, after all? *** The world-building is set upon on the universal scale, with dungeon and old-style fantasy. It has a progression that follows with the consistency of a dungeon setting, although it's not what you call a dungeon, but a function of a crystal. There's a lot to take in this novel, but that's all within my intention. I have always enjoyed challenging conventional ideas. The cover is not mine, it's just temporary.
