———(POV Narration)
A sea of endless stars.
An equal harmony between an endless void and the shining stars.
A large wooden desk flanked by two large wooden bookshelves.
A man writing on a large leather bound book, "that's odd, it's not writing anymore," he said in an echoing voice as he shook his pen.
Loud screaming followed by a thud sounded throughout the space in space.
"Where the fuck am I, did I die? Finally man, took to god damn long." A featureless man says while dusting off his camoed gear.
"Welcome traveler, you have come here too early," the echoing voice said seemingly coming from every direction yet centered on him.
"Nah man, I've been escaping death for sooooo long, you know karma and everything. Death just finally caught up. Life seemed so short for me just reaching 20."
"That is because it isn't over yet," the man said while closing the book he was working on. "You need to leave this place and meet him, I owe him a favor." The god like figure said standing and walking towards the featureless man.
"Hey quick note, you're God right? If you are, I got a couple questions, since you're God and everything you can just freeze time." The featureless man said while sitting down.
"I can't freeze it, instead there is an equivocal exchange of time. So keep this in mind as I answer to what is permitted."
"So, first question, are there other Gods? Simple first question."
"There are other Gods, each God coming from what the believers believe in of that God."
"Second question, could I become a God?"
"Theoretically so, but according to fate your end is here," opening the book and pointing at the bottom of the last page.
"Funky, so you are like fate. Anyways, third question, why are you helping me?"
"I am helping because I owe someone a favor who truly wishes to help you."
"So are you sending me back to the same place, Mr God dude sir?"
"It will be similar but I obviously can't send you back to that dimension, God laws, but I will send you somewhere very similar."
"Alright seems fair enough, not like I got many attachments, another quick question before I'm off, how long has my new body aged?"
The ground beneath the featureless man ripped as time and space contorted around him, "Twenty two years,"
"WAIT IM OVER 40 NOW," was last thing echoed into the space as he stopped kicking and screaming.
"Never was a fan of that original world, let's see what hall do now," was what the God said sitting back at the table. He grabbed the pen and continued to write. "Oh, it's working now," he said in surprise not moving in anyway beside the movement of his hand writing a story of great man's life.

I opened my eyes to see a dark void encompassing me.
