When I opened my eyes, Rudolfo was different and I quickly realized the reason for this, I was unconscious and in an ethereal world with my mind, Soul or maybe even my Will, I honestly can't be sure.
Looking in all directions I see many floating islands containing trees that have grown together with buildings, it was an intriguing image, but all of this was far away while I myself focus on the tree in front of .
A tree that seems to know no height limits and as the power I am feeling cos from it is even deeper than the simple power of nature.
The branches of this tree seem to cross dinsions with each one entering through a crack in space its ethereal leaves seem to contain entire worlds inside them while the few fruits scattered as far as I could see were emanating reflections as well as power comparable to that of a universe.
"You don't seem scared."
"Why would I be? This isn't the first ti we've t." ()
As I spoke, a pair of irises appeared from pure energy coming together, it was as if I were seeing a pair of eyes from the inside of my head.
This presence that surrounds and this voice, I knew who it was the mont I felt it all, the sa one that Freya didn't tell the na of and the sa one that appeared for a brief mont when I t my first World Tree, the one everyone calls sister. The oldest, the first World Tree.
"Why don't you want to say your na?" ()
"What aning would my na have for you?"
"A na is a form of connection between individuals, but there is no connection between us other than your daughter and my daughter."
"Are you talking about Freya and Silvia? You call Freya your daughter and not your sister, why?" ()
"My sisters were born from , their Souls are mirrors of and their power is a reflection of mine, our purpose has always been and will always be one since the mont our existence began, there is no leadership among us, we are all equal and at the sa ti a family."
"Freya is different, she took the initiative to accept a new purpose adjacent and complentary to ours, soone who received an existential transformation from , thus being reborn as my daughter."
"What purpose is this that you speak of?" ()
"Explaining it to you makes no sense."
"..." ()
Her voice is calm the whole ti, she explains to the difference between Freya and the other Trees of the World, but what caught my attention was realizing that my senses did not reach my body, I did not know what was happening.
"Why am I talking to you now?" ()
"Where is Freya and the Tree of the End?" ()
"Freya is fine, she was the one who allowed to take control of her body temporarily to take care of my sister."
"Did you kill the Tree of End?" ()
"Not completely, I gave her a new purpose and placed my hopes in you once again."
"You know what I thought." ()
"You're still going to allow this?" ()
"It would be a better path than her current path, a new beginning of existence and purpose."
"Wait, why does it seem like you're stringing along? If she's already been treated, then what are you doing now?" ()
"Accelerating your plan, you said it yourself, it was inevitable..."
"..." ()
"(You wretch...)" ()
Before I could finish my thought or express my anger, my eyes dispersed as did everything else around . I soon felt my eyes open once more, this ti my true eyes opening.
When I truly returned to my body, I noticed several things at once. First, this whole place seed harmonious. The elents no longer seed to be in conflict as before, giving a less tense and more relaxing feeling.
I also looked around and saw a chain of mountains in the shape of a giant body, each mountain being affected by a different elent.
Everyone was nearby looking at , but Callidora was looking up with a truly joyful smile. When she realized I was looking at her, she turned towards , her smile widening as her eyes seed to mock .
But I wasn't worried about her now. I even ignored what the others were saying while I focused on myself. That's because I couldn't feel Tarzor and, by extension, I couldn't feel Freya either.
I try to internalize my senses by connecting with my Soul and from there follow the traces of my connection with Tarzor.
"(My connection is still there, but I can't feel where he is, but he seems to be going through sothing.)" ()
"What's going on?" ()
I was confused, still trying to understand what was happening, and that's when I realized I was in my Human form again. My last mory was still being in my Dragon form surrounded by the power of my Familiars, but after that, nothing.
My mory has a big empty hole where I can't rember anything I did or went through. I only have confusing sensations and emotions about that ti, but nothing rational that makes understand what I went through.
I was confused about all of this, but at that mont Diana ca to , stealing my lips and making my attention turn completely to her.
"Are you okay?" (Diana)
"I am... I think..." ()
"Then pull yourself together at once, we don't have ti to waste." (Diana)
"I'm sure, the energy flow is changing and harmonizing." (Aurora)
"That's a big problem..." (Samara)
"I found it, the head is down there, but the creature I created was destroyed by a creature covered in thorns." (Zaya)
"Can soone explain to what's going on?" ()
"Let explain to you." (Hades)
Hades briefly tells how they weren't able to defeat the Children of the End that were created by the Tree of the End, it seems that they couldn't be destroyed or sealed, from his reports the only ones who managed to cause any kind of damage to them were those with Anomalous power, but even that damage was only healed at a slower rate and if the fight continued it would take days of combat to be able to destroy those things.
It was then that they all suddenly exploded in elental energy, then bursts of elental energy appeared in a storm in the sky so intense that none of them were able to keep themselves taller, all they could do was wait, which also didn't take more than a few minutes.
When everything returned to normal, Hades said that he saw falling to the ground in my small form along with my Familiars, it seems that Sakura was shining brightly with her uncontrolled Aura while Layla and Nix were trembling, but apart from those three the others were fine.
Samara was the one who examined all of us and said that everyone was just unconscious, it seems that only Sakura had an overload in her powers and when she woke up she was more than fine.
Unfortunately they all had the sa problem as , they all had no mory of exactly the sa mont when I lost consciousness, only Hinata said that she didn't lose consciousness, but was put to sleep while feeling warmly embraced.
"(Did she knock everyone unconscious or was it us who couldn't handle her power?)" ()
I had my doubts, but that was a question for another ti, I looked up and noticed that the egg in the sky was shaking and there was a crack, it seed like it was starting to hatch, vein marks appearing all over the egg.
I was scared that I hadn't noticed this before, I suddenly realized the reason for Callidora's smile and what her last words in my dream ant.
"(Did she do this?)" ()
"Let's hurry and get that head!" ()
"Do you feel okay yet?" (Diana)
"Yes, let's finish off those thorny creatures..." ()
After that we jumped into that hole, just as Zaya warned, there were monsters everywhere, they were plant-type monsters covered in thorns, but further inside I saw a large flower without any thorns, that large flower didn't seem to be a monster, but its glow was full of Divine Power.
Just as Aurora said, they were two opposing types of Divinity, but it was weaker than I previously thought, maybe it was because the head was inside that flower or was consud by that flower.
The fight against the thorny creatures was much easier than I thought, each creature had only the strength of a Demigod, but it had no intelligence, they were just monsters attacking without making effective use of their numbers, there were hundreds of them and each one that was defeated exploded with its power being sucked by the others.
After only a few dozen remained, their strength beca close to that of a Lesser God. When only one of them remained, it was like a qualitative change. His body changed, becoming much larger, creating petal wings and a head with a clearer appearance. This one had a power no less than mine in Dragon form, and that was exactly why it was easy to destroy him, since we had more Gods on our side.
When we finally saw that everything was over, the power of the last thorny creature was sucked into the flower that had no thorns. Then a column of light ford, throwing all that power into the sky. The Aura I was feeling from the flower changed, now carrying traces of the Aura of the Tree of the End.
The flower quickly withered and died, and when the column of light disappeared seconds later, the flower left behind was just a few dry branches and a large musical head with two faces.
"The head!!!" (Aurora)
"Are the Deities still there?" (Diana)
"Fortunately, yes, whatever that was, it did nothing to the Divinities I need, fortunately." (Aurora)
