I spend a few minutes contemplating over what these mausoleums could be for. Maybe the spirits of the current role holders, maybe past role holders assuming there were any, or maybe even so beings or sothing that give out the roles.
But all of this is just conjecture, so I eventually just drop it and decide to go inside of one of the mausoleums. Since speculating won't get anywhere.
It doesn't even take long to pick a mausoleum. Simply because there are only two quantum beings I am personally acquainted with, ignoring the other two that I've at least sensed or seen but not really interacted with. Like the stalker from earlier.
So without hesitation, I walk right up to the mausoleum with the strange screen symbol above the entryway.
The mausoleum for the System Architect.
Otherwise known as my self-proclaid father.
And while I'm walking, I take note of multiple different things.
For one, I realize that I can't actually use any energy in this place. I can't teleport, nor use any of my skills.
For two, the guards at the entrance of the mausoleum don't even so much as look my way. Despite how the guards outside acted.
Maybe the ones outside were so sort of test for ?
If I had to guess, these guards might just be stationed here to stop anyone who isn't from coming inside. Or sothing like that.
I could be completely wrong here.
Either way, I open the grand doors to the mausoleum, revealing a bright purple portal where the doors were. Then I pass through said portal, only to find myself appearing inside of so strange chamber. One with glitchy purple and blue walls that don't stay in place or even in the form of a single solid wall. With various parts of it glitching away and moving around.
anwhile at the center of the chamber is a large computer setup. And not a simple one either, but one with dozens of monitors and other technical stuff.
Everything except a keyboard. Which is odd.
I walk over towards the computer, only to freeze when I hear so ancient sounding voice.
"So you're the one," the voice says.
I quickly look around, only to suddenly realize there's a man in front of the keyboard that I didn't notice before. One who looks like a quantum being, what with the purple hair and glitchy eyes and all.
Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.
The being turns around and focuses on the computer as a strange holographic array of panels and keyboards appear in front of them. Panels and keyboards that match well with the computer itself, along with its monitors and all. Like they were made as a set.
"Let's start," the being states without any explanation, confusing even more.
But I walk up to stand next to them anyways.
Then the glitchy walls all around us suddenly begin falling apart. anwhile the appearance of the being next to suddenly changes. With a set of high-tech purple armor appearing over them as their form itself begins to glitch apart. Sohow maintaining a half-stable, half glitchy form with one side of them being indecipherable now and the other clear.
Must be their True Form.
But who is this? They can't be the Quantum Architect, since I know that old guy, and this isn't him.
At the sa ti, I entered a mausoleum labeled with his symbol, and am now eting this quantum being. So who could this be?
Maybe a Quantum Architect from the past?
Regardless of who they are, they simply begin typing away at the keyboard in front of . Bringing my gaze to the keys themselves to realize I have no idea what the symbols on them an.
But seconds after I see the symbols, a burning pain spreads through my mind before vanishing again.
Then I find myself understanding them as if I've known them my entire life, leaving blinking in surprise.
"Accessing new galaxy, GID 21428941263," the man states, his voice resonating throughout the entire chamber and in my head. Following which the walls all glitch a few tis and the screens begin to show a lot of data. Most of which goes right over my head. "Initializing Structure Setup Protocols."
I narrow my eyes a little at the screens as I try to figure out what he's doing. But all I see is a lot of data and code going across the screens at frightening speeds. So I turn to look at the walls which are now forming different panels that all show different worlds in what I'm guessing is this new galaxy he's talking about.
[New Galaxy Initialization Process has begun.]
The computer suddenly speaks, bringing my gaze towards it.
Then everything just kinda clicks in my mind.
This is to show the role of the Quantum Architect.
Is that what these mausoleums are for? To show how the different Quantum Beings perform their roles?
But why? So I can police them or sothing?
I hope not.
And is that all there is to it? To these mausoleums?
Are there other trials of sorts I have to go through in each?
One question after another floods my mind, but the one ti I need that self-proclaid grandfather, he's not here. So I just take a deep breath and focus on the many screens and panels. Just trying to keep up with what the guy is doing.
Which proves to be rather difficult. At least, when it cos to the process.
What exactly he's making it do, now that is easy enough to decipher.
I just can't figure out how he's doing it very well.
But the longer I watch, the more I manage to understand.
The Architect in front of is currently creating the structure of a new galaxy recently initialized by the Quantum Builder and the Quantum Creator.
He's designing the interactions between everything, the power balance, the magic, and all of that.
aning that, while the Quantum Builder creates the seed of a Galaxy and the barebones of it, and the Quantum Creator does the sa thing for the living things inside of it, the Quantum Architect is the one that does everything else. He moves around all of the 'pieces' created by the other two, designs how they all interact with each other, and how they work.
Soon enough, I find myself srized by the process and losing track of ti.
