Since John's last encounter with the angels, there's still the mystery of the Leviathan core. Studying the core and listening, there was still huge gaps of information that John needed to make sense of everything. With knowledge of Leviathans being severely limited, the task proved difficult. Samantha was searching the knowledge contained in heaven's library and John left roaming and wandering around searching for any kind of physical clues. John knew that the knowledge he was seeking was going to best found by someone or something that has been around since the era of Leviathans. He remembered that he was seeking the outcast sage from heaven. There was as much information about this sage as there was leviathans. Besides meeting his son and hearing about the sage from the demons, this sage doesn't exist.
Wandering around looking for someone who doesn't want to be found and hasn't been found was a journey John hadn't properly prepared for. Even though he was a powerful combined entity, there were still limits to his physical body. John spent what felt like eternity wandering around, has seen great seas of sand, high mountains, dense forests, and even mountains holding fire. He wasn't expecting to hear anything from Samantha as he didn't even know where he was let alone trying to describe his whereabouts. During these travels, John learned more about angels, demons, leviathans and even human pasts. John was shown battles of the past, the strategies behind the battles. There were some overlapping details between all the battles John has seen. Most of them started with head on conflicts, a battle of strength. Slowly progressed into battle of wit, until all that remained were the soldier's final push to either victory or defeat. John would often replay these battles within his head while laying down, studying each move as if it were a game.
After many nights and endless days, John happened upon a strange rock formation. The rock formation resembled a giant hand holding a spherical stone. "Interesting." John stated. "Wait John, can you feel that?" Ampol responded. John began focusing on his surroundings as if scanning for life. Within this rock was an orb of holy energy, as if there were a ball inside this giant sphere. "It's strange but I can feel it." John responded. "What is this?" he questioned. "This is the first we've discovered this." Ampol responded. "You're all too young yet." the leviathan hissed from his stone. "I do not disagree with you." John started. "Why don't you enlighten us?" he continued. "The orb has shrunk over time, this has aged for quite some time. This stone has been touched by the creator of souls." the leviathan stated. "The creator of souls?" They all questioned. "Yes, the one known as God. This is but His fingerprint upon this stone." "You know God?" They all asked again in unison. "The simple answer is yes, however it goes more in depth." the leviathan continued. "Since the beginning the land was ravaged by the elements. God visited the land and began changing the land, shielding it from the elements. Weakening the elements over time, made it so he could start working in peace. Before God could finish his work, someone intruded and began wreaking havoc on the land. Undoing all of His work, He then created the first two creatures. Using these creatures to fend off these intruders so he could work in peace, these creatures were leviathans. We defended him and his work area for a very long time. We multiplied to protect all sides of his work area, instead of just two, we were hundreds then thousands. When He finally emerged from his work area, he held two orbs of pale light. He asked for volunteers to test His work, we were all eager so He chose two and inserted this light into their heartstones. That was how the first demons were made, the light overtook the heartstones and burned away their spirits. Unsatisfied, He returned days later with two more pale lights. We were no longer eager to test this, we saw our brethren turn against us and want destruction. When He noticed our reactions, He smiled and they began glowing bright white. Assuring us, this one was perfect, He injected a little of his power. Those two became the first angels, the light overtook their heartstones and their spirits shined bright." the leviathan continued into the night.
"Unsatisfied once again, He returned to the workshop. The demons made deals with the intruders to help them expand and overtake us. Fueled by anger and rage that God wasn't satisfied with them, they wanted Him to pay. The angels waited by the workshop, just waiting to show their love to Him. We waited along time again, fighting even harder, we were His defenders. Everyone began expanding, angels and demons alike. When He emerged again, He was holding orbs of multi colors, slight glow but something was different. We were expecting two more of us, but he has dozens, none were the same but they were similar. He just pushed them into us, all at once. Their heartstones got overloaded with all these emotions and the stone cracked and became your hearts. We were confused and all fled into hiding, we didn't know if we were going to change or not. After the demons and the massive changes, we even hid from each other and laid dormant. When we began peeking out, the land changed massively. The intruders were gone, angels created a city hidden within light itself, humans began changing the lands for survival. Each one was doing work like he was, but they weren't alone. Unsure if He was still watching, we stay hidden, eating no more than we needed to to not draw attention. That's how I "know" God." the leviathan finished. "This rock contains a fingerprint that he touched it." The leviathan stated. They all sat there in silence, trying to process what was going on. "The orbs are souls. Created to allow creatures to change by different methods. We all have souls, each one bearing a different part of him." stated the leviathan.
