Void War Era Year 2
Standing in the air above the void I watch the war from start to end, wondering to myself how I became so obsessed with this one woman to the point were I wiped out everything. The mess I created just for her to live once more, only to have the Creed tear open a hole open in the Void.
Fighting them has delayed my plans as they wash over the entire Void killing everything they come across, those that are killed by them then mutate and merge into their numbers creating an endless cycle of death and rebirth. They pushed the Void to the brink leaving only the strong alive with Verena dead I refused to save those who caused her death, only after they perish will I fulfill her dying wish to me.
After so many years the Creed became a threat I could no longer ignore even with her killers still alive, defending her territory from the Creed reunited me with another group I owe a debt too. The Guardian race my race. My people still managed to survive yet so many others were consumed and joined the Creeds advance, they are clever creatures preying on the naive nature of emotions. Have you ever seen a father eating his own wife and child the Creed mimic the forms of those they kill, reaping lives at an even faster rate the Void began to be filled with a chaotic war.
Upon knowing I ruled the territory they entered for protection they tried to demand I shelter them.
"We are your people!"
"We had no choice back then forgive us Dashnell!"
"We will give you anything if you agree to aid us!"
How could I refuse help against the Creed, after killing the Elders who ordered my parents deaths I agreed to allow them into my territory. During the years under my protection they began to produce extremely powerful Guardians, one had to admit my people if left alone were destined to become those who stand at the top. As more and more Void Gods retreated from the Creed my territory became filled with them and their followers, this war caused many changes in me granting me a new ability that I could use to complete this plan of mine.
With this and my adaptability I saw my plan come back to life, I don't know if this was my own ability awakening after the countless lives I reaped or somthing I gained from killing a unique Creed. It allows me to gain the ability and memories of the things I kill the best part of this ability is I even gain the ability and memories of those they killed.
After getting used to this new power of mine I set everything aside and focused to see if I gained powers and memories from my past. Once I confirmed that I possessed her power joy flooded my heart, with this I no longer need to recreate existence I just need to gain the ability to create life.
Taking life for me was never hard even from the time I was born I could kill things stronger than me, what I needed now was to find a way to bring her back to this world. Who would have thought my answer lied in one of the young Guardians, she stood out among the others something about her drew me to her. With my vast experience from simply living to long I quickly noticed this young girl was able to draw me to her because she was Verena, I had no way to control myself after finding out. Locking her away from the war I as the savior of the Guardians was blocked by no one from my actions, her parents were pleased that their child caught my eye.
If rebirth was possible I wondered if I could track and control it! This also caused me to fear the Creed. Those they killed have not been reborn as they were reanimated as one of the Creed after being eaten alive, testing this young Guardians powers I come to know her name is Crest. I know that I can easily force her to become mine but that is not what I want, slowly over time I try to recreate the emotions we had in the past not telling her about her past life as Void God Verena.
Void War Era Year 3
Regardless of the Creed managing to kill so many Void Gods and enter the vast Void my territory continues to expand. Those 12 who took Verenas life perished under the attacks from the Creed but in truth I was the one who struck them down while their allies were busy fighting off the waves of Creed. I have also come to notice the Creed do indeed have the ability to use the powers and abilities of those they killed, this ability from them how did I manage to gain it I wonder.
I discovered I possess a similar ability to theres and once I killed so many it evolved into what it is now, they can only gain the abilities of those they kill while I gain abilities from those that I kill as well as those they have killed. The similarity is gaining the memories of those we kill and the thing I lacked was being able to mimic the form of those I killed, well I posses it now but will I even use such an ability to hide my true form?
While I helped expand the territory against the Creed, Crest that girl fell in love with another her parents feared I would kill her an her partner. I just watched on with a pained heart throwing myself into the depths of the Void, only the screams and cries from the Creed can drown out my own.
This emotion from me did not escape the watching eyes of the Creed Elders.
...
Void War Era Year 4 End of the Creed War
Look at him that pitiful man that still to this day possesses the body of a 10 year old child. I must never let him down, deep in my heart this is my dream my wish my desire. I will do what he can not do and bring her back to this world and if she doesn't love me after regaining her past memories as Verena then I will watch over her as the last Guardian.
Today is the day it happens. The Creed after fighting against the various Void Gods found that it was impossible to wipe out all life in the Void, so they changed and controlled territory in the Void trying to allow time to heal the damage they caused. Their goal was to allow others to forget their sins and after eons no matter how us old Void Gods tried to hinder them they succeeded, and so the alliance was made, I truly hoped they changed only to be dissapointed.
Out of all the Void Gods they feared I seem to cause them an unbelievable amount of it, with the Guardians as my person army with the female Void Gods leading them my power grew unchecked and stopped their invention in the Void.
To remedy this they planed for so long that even I grew naive of their true nature if only I killed some of the older Creed back then. This was not the first time they ended an entire Realm of existence so they were aware of people who would have abilities similar to mine an let the young do the deed while they arranged everything in the back.
...
As the forming of the alliance was celebrated by many major powers within the Void, even having several Void Gods myself included there for the celebration. Looking around I find the young man Crest fell in love with panicked with regret all over his face, reacting fast I quickly brought him away from the others were he told me that the Creed took Crest. Before I could react the massive tear in the Void were the Creed first emerged from began to close, rushing out I instantly arrive stopping the tear from closing.
Using my other form all Guardians have I attach myself to the tear.
Once a Guardian has let rage consume them their formes change into the manifestation of that rage.
Mine being a massive serpent like dragon even the size of the tear was only able to match my true size, but this too was in their plan. They did not know all of my abilities they only knew that I am a threat to their goal of slaughter.
Before my eyes I see them eating Crest alive, screaming out my name I once again witness her death extremely similar to how she died before. Those 12 Void Gods sealed her in a closed space away from me and filled her body with spears killing her, and now as her hand stretches out to me everything else of her can not be seen as she is consumed before me. This massive tear blocks my ability to control time and is locking me in place, I can choose to let her die and break the gate or let her die and be crushed to death by the gate. I fail to understand how this will aid them in defeating me it only enraged me beyond my imagination, as the tear began to rip open from my struggles I hear their laughter as they retreat before I could fully escape from their trap.
