OX-30230-A.
From within a blazing inferno appeared a slender hand possessing the fairest skin unfettered by the fire from which it came. As the hand grew into an arm, a groggy yawn could be heard from within the flames.
A woman with ferocious blood-red hair emerged from the fire claiming ownership of the jade-like arm. Her eyes were sharp and piercing, the colour of emeralds. She wore a black leather jacket and trousers, adorned with silver studs and chains. A necklace of bright red gems wrapped around her, and a large sceptre adorned with red sapphire-like gems hung on her back.
As she stepped forward, the flames around her died down, leaving behind a trail of smoke and ash. She looked around, taking in her surroundings with a critical eye.
In the distance, she spotted a figure approaching, and her hand instinctively went to her sceptre.
But as the figure grew closer, she saw it was just a traveller, weary and worn from his journey.
"Who are you?" she demanded, her voice like a whip crack.
The traveller looked up at her, his eyes widening in intrigue. "I am but a humble traveler, seeking refuge from the dangers of the road," he said, his voice shaking under the effects of his age.
The woman narrowed her eyes, sizing him up. "Very well," she said finally. "But be warned. This is no place for the weak or the timid. You must be strong to survive here."
The traveller's response was enigmatic, "The one who mothers fire has emerged. Seek him." The woman's eyes widened in recognition, scrutinising the traveller before suddenly while she remained staring without blinking he disappeared.
'A man who speaks in riddles and leaves no trace, prophesing what has come.' She stares at the dying star in the sky thinking under its dull red glow. 'Who else but the God of Mystery.' Before taking a step, she sighs and with a single stride, traverses hundreds of miles, arriving at a temple. A temple dedicated to her: Mera Silenti, the Goddess of Fire.
As she steps into her temple, her eyes land on the towering pillars that seem to reach up to the heavens. These pillars, crafted from a rare and precious black stone known as desmian, were carefully selected for their exceptional resistance to the intense heat and flames that fill the temple. They stand as a testament to her power and strength, a symbol of her unbridled might.
As she moves deeper into the temple, Mera Silenti takes in the intricate carvings that adorn the walls. These carvings seem to flicker and dance in the soft, scarlet glow that surrounds them, imbuing the entire space with a sense of warmth and vitality. The fiery aura is a manifestation of her power, a constant reminder of the immense energy that she holds within herself.
She soon notices the sheer magnitude of the space in which a normal being would be struck and stunned. The vaulted ceilings stretch high above her, seemingly endless in their expanse.
The air is thick with the scent of smoke and burning embers, a constant reminder of the fiery deity who is worshipped here.
In the centre of the temple lay an altar, its surface is hewn from the same black stone as the pillars.
Above the altar, a massive statue of the goddess looms, her face contorted in a fierce expression of power and authority. Her eyes blaze with an inner fire, and mortals cannot help but feel a sense of awe and reverence in her presence.
For those who take in the breathtaking surroundings of the temple of Mera Silenti, it is impossible not to feel a sense of respect and reverence for the goddess of fire and the immense power that she represents.
The temple stands as a testament to her strength and might, and it is clear that she is a deity to be reckoned with.
As the goddess stood before her statue, an incandescent priestess rushed to the altar, having received news of her goddess's arrival. Seeing the being, whose radiance and splendour far surpassed that of her statue the priestess immediately fell to her knees.
"Your holiness, the humble priestess of fire greets you." The priestess states with such great reverence that she exuded an aura of piety throughout the temple.
"Hmm. Rise my subject, your goddess has a mission for you." Mera casually acknowledged the priestess.
"Go to the new world, find the one who mothers fire."
"My goddess, the universe has gotten desperate and created 15 new worlds this century."
"How intriguing. Go as my envoy to the World OX-98654-B" The goddess guides her devotee while contemplating the reasons for the sudden increase in new worlds. "Make Haste my child."
With these words, the goddess steps into the altar returning to the bed of fire. The envoy organises her journey and infiltration of the new world.
She called for a list of worlds from her servants and slaves.
"High Priestess Elminior, we have completed your request." A slave brings a small cube of glowing energy to Elminior before being shooed out by the priestess.
She assimilates the cube into her palm, absorbing the information into her scarlet personal system modified for those who belong in the goddess's hierarchy and religion, Ignitia, her eyes briefly glitterring with newfound information.

'6 A-Worlds this time this far surpasses the ratio that has been seen before.' Elminior thought in bewilderment. After all, it took millennia for one A-World to be formed but here in the same century, there were 6.
Since the beginning of this universe, it had only created one S-World. Unfortunately, that world was a failure, having been destroyed from the inside. Now only A-Worlds and B-Worlds were formed to combat the ever-looming threat of the vast Omni-verse.
Pushing these thoughts to the back of her mind, Elminior focused on the task her goddess had given her.
"Cindris, I have been bestowed upon by the goddess a mission."
[Elminior, High Priestess of Mera Silenti, elaborate.]
"Her holiness has found a talent worthy of her discipleship. I need to enter the World OX-98654-B lower the restriction on me when I descend."
[The best I can do is D-1.]
"That's plenty."
She enters a tall skyscraper made of Cosmiflex, a fairly common material in the wider universe with spacial capabilities that allow the buildings made out of it to have expanding space. As a result the volume of this skyscraper was much more than it would seem from the outside.
Elminior takes an instant elevator to the 137th floor arriving before a star chart. The entire building had a built in AI based off of the system of Ignitia.
"InfernoTech, open the star chart and track the conditions of the world OX-98654-B." She beckons the AI to follow her will.
[Clearance Detected: Welcome High Priestess]
[OX-98654-B a world smaller than most B-Worlds, its energy levels are currently unstable likely do to its recent formation.]
[The atmosphere contains a toxin known as carbon dioxide which is very harmful and potentially deadly to the High Priestess' species and the rest of the clergy. However, those with a level surpassing level 50 will not be harmed, but will be weakened.]
[There are 182 main species and 1,165,500,000 lesser species. There are 7 species that have obtained the right of talents, 4 of which are vassal species.]
[The average survival rate of untalented species is 60%, as usual talented species have a 100% survival rate during transfer.]
[The highest ranked individual is at B-4.]
"How troublesome. Tell me how much I would be weakened if I were suppressed to rank D-1."
[Affirmative: Due to your high current level even under world supression to rank D-1 beginner your stats would be equivalent to that of a new B-World's level 60. However, under the affects of Carbon Dioxide your stats will drop to level 55, four levels above a rank D-1 beginner.]
Since she had the goddess backing her, the world system of OX-30230-A would only lower her rank to D-1 from her current rank of L-4. Of course, this was more than enough as the highest-ranked individual was at rank B-4, especially since as an A-World species and an old species her basic stats were much higher.
"Give me a list of all the talented species including the vassal species."
After absorbing the information she ordered for a ship to take her to OX-98654-B taking with her only the most basic of items, so as to not alert the other gods and bypass the system supression more.
Under the stealth of the ship she quickly left Cindris, leaving no trace of her absence even going as far as to using a powerful clone replica.
This time she would not be able to teleport as too many were watching the currents in the sea of space. As the High Priestess of Mera Silenti, many eyes were on her so major moves could not be so bllatantly shown.
Soon she arrived at OX-98654-B.
