Leaving the dungeon, Yunan took a look at the heart of the Hosana universe, Fate was slowly shifting, flow upon flow interweaving and winding about.
Inside his sea of consciousness, the fragnt of Fate squird a little, linking Yunan to Fate, he looked inside it, only fog and clouds existed inside, it made Yunan smile, Fate was no longer written, in this universe, Destiny had no grasp on anyone.
Yunan beat his wings to arrive a few monts later at the new heaven, he chose to say very few words as goodbye, giving hugs and saying comforting words, before standing with Tasha and Death away from the family he had made along the way, he waved one last ti and left a few words as Death brought the two of them along.
"Co find , don't make wait for too long"
Leaving those words behind was him letting his sentints loosen a little bit, he would be so happy if his family ca to find him, he would prove that things were not so lonely at the summit of power.
When he opened his eyes, a tear dropped from the corner, and before him, was a sight that he deed to be the land he must conquer next.
Death didn't say anything before he too left to et his Primordial, Yunan and Tasha looked for the first ti at the void, universes were scattered like stars, so were clustered, so were loose and so were alone, the clustered ones were undergoing a culling, the loose ones were still maturing, the lonely ones must have been failures.
From this scale, the void looked to be endless, but Yunan knew otherwise, there was no such thing as infinity, everything must have a limit.
"So, where do we go from here, I find it a bit hard to believe, the scale of everything is just...wrong!" Tasha was looking everywhere, fair as a butterfly, a butterfly with no wind to support her or flowers to perch on.
"Find the nearest universe and feed on it, start from there, I suppose. scale is subjective to how you view it, to us the universes are enormous, to the Primordials, they are probably no bigger than dust motes, look over there, that is why they get to look down on us, because they are so fat, a universe is not enough to fill between their teeth".
Tasha looked at where Yunan pointed, she took a mont to understand what she was looking at, and then she looked more, her breathing shorter each ti, not that she was actually breathing, but the heaving chest made the undulating action nonetheless.
What Yunan pointed at could only be described as a behemoth, it was too big for any other words, scale no longer applied to it, among the sea of stars, it existed as if to ridicule creation.
We are going to be fighting those? The thought scared Tasha out of her wits, she almost felt her soul drifting away from her body, just in ti, a hand gently but firmly held her shoulder, bringing her back to reality, as if to comfort her, the words hit her ears in a very invigorating voice.
"They are weaker than you think, those big blobs of fat are not the things to fear, my mission is sothing else, co now, we have so many universes to invade".
Without much delay, the two flew hand in hand to intercept the nearest universe, leaving behind them a place they planned to never return to. When they finished their mission, their conquest, they would be too strong for such a fragile little universe, maybe even the void would not hold them.
On their way, both Yunan and Tasha exchanged their enlightennt about the void and the universes within, The power of the laws was what Yunan talked about most, his insights in them were still shallow, but having the laws at his fingertips, he could keep understanding them without hinder. As long as he was willing to continue.
As for Tasha, she was more interested Yunan rather than the conversation, the way he learned from abstract concepts, turning that knowledge into sothing feasible made her heart skip and throb, his way of gaining insight felt instinctive to her, having nothing but speculation never hindered him from coming up with sothing that can be proved or disproved, he moved on without giving a thought about what he had just found out, to him it was just that, a little bit more knowledge.
To Tasha what Yunan consider simple knowledge was the fruit of aeons of research, things no god would willingly share, and Yunan spoke of such things as if they did not matter.
When she asked him why was he so nonchalant about the secrets of creations and the laws that existence itself had to follow, his answer made her think he was as dumb as a brick. "So what if I hoard it, sharing it with another may give us both a bit more clarity on the next step, who knows, maybe even figure out a new law or sothing".
All her life, she was taught that gods should be lonely creature's, having to figure out how the world worked through their own efforts, advancing the road to becoming a Primordial step by step, it was her first ti ever, feeling that maybe it should not be so lonely, maybe if gods worked together, the laws of the universe, and the coveted power of Primordials would not be so hard to achieve.
A few decades of drifting through the void made Tasha truly appreciate company, even if Yunan was ditating or practising the majority of his ti, he still had ti to keep a conversation going with her, even if the conversation was mostly about how to maximize the benefits of training and efficacy of their powers, it was still appreciated.
She had lived for a few millions of years, but none felt as fulfilling as the last few decades, she never felt that she was as godly as she did now, the secrets that she thought beyond her were unveiled, her errors and mistakes corrected, she path had never been so obvious to her before today.
As for Yunan, his path had never changed, he had to step ahead one step after the other, making the effort to keep going, his goal was too far, but not far enough to make him despair, he would reach it one day, as long as he kept walking ahead, he would arrive.
