"I was expecting you would ask that". The regal voice of the enigmatic figure before me soothed my ears as a smile was plastered on her otherworldly fair face.
She proceeded "To answer your question,there are certain things you need to know about the worlds".
I stared at her inquisitively, then questioned her in surprise "The human world is not the only one that exists...? ..... According to scientific research, there seems to be some sort of invisible barrier that blocks any entity from traversing outside of this world... Although some schools of thought argue that if our world exists,there could be the possibility of other worlds existing, it is only a conjecture not sponsored by any proven results, a mere assumption to be precise...
It is common knowledge to most scientific schools of thought that the possibility of other worlds existing remains a myth, since we do not even know what exists outside our world...
The origin of the celestial bodies ,the sun the moon and the stars, remain an enigma . Ideologies that these celestial entities are gods that watch over us and shine their lights of protection on us, dominate many cultures of our world, as that is the only plausible explanation that seem to satisfy the curiosity of the masses.. Religious cults have even been formed in the name of these Celestial Bodies to be precise ... "
I ceased my rumblings, then stared at the being that claimed to be the Planetary Will of my world.... A slight ,gentle smile formed on her face, then she sighed, for the first time..
"I am the Planetary Will of the human world child,I know all these things, now keep quiet and listen to me.. I believe all your questions will be answered by the time I am done...".
I nodded at her stern demeanor that carried a hint of warmth in it , her voice trailing into my ears again "In the distant past , The worlds in the universe were quite numerable, and peace reigned in the universe at that time.. Planetary Wills had less taxing duties to indulge, as there were no threats to their worlds and their respective inhabitants... However this period of peace in the universe did not last..
A group of Planetary Wills grew despondent, and destroyed the natural order of things... causing chaos to replace the peace and order amongst the Planetary Wills in the Universe..These vile Planetary Wills who would later come to be known in the Universe as The Gatherers claimed that , as it was their sole duty as Planetary Wills to protect their worlds , the only way to ensure that their worlds would forever remain unthreathened was to ensure that they ascend in power and strength above all the other Planetary Wills in the Universe... The Gatherers begun their greedy pursuit for power by performing an extremely abominable act that ended millions of lives in the universe ,which was ,by consuming the very same beings they were meant to protect- the lifeforms on their worlds...
They had brought an end to life on the selfsame worlds they existed to protect... They had treated the lifeforms on their worlds ,some who were sentient , with dreams, goals and aspirations, families and bonds, friendships and feelings as nothing and caused severe pain and destruction...
This heineous act of consuming the lifeforms on their worlds led to an explosive increase in their power... However, their greed for power knew no bounds..
What The Gatherers did next in an attempt to prove a point to themselves that their wickedness was for the greater good, brought far more chaos in the universe.
The Gatherers created new life forms on their worlds,sentient and non sentient lifeforms harboring unimaginable villiany, power and destructive tendencies....
With the armies of their newly birthed destructive lifeforms trailing behind them,they wrought mayhem and destruction in the universe,by destroying a number of Planetary Wills in the universe and absorbing their ether cores to attain more power... Not only that, they consumed the life forms on such worlds whose Planetary Wills were destroyed to obtain more power ,causing those worlds to become lifeless and extinct.
The League of Planetary Wills which ,was formed by the remaining Planetary Wills that were not yet destroyed ,named the mayhemic breathers of catastrophy The Gatherers of Evil Power.... in short , The Gatherers..
The League of Planetary Wills which consisted of the Planetary Wills of 50 worlds, decided to launch a collective onThe Gatherers ....
This war was extremely detonative , ravaging to nothings multiple Planetary Wills and the life on their worlds...
The Gatherers paid a heavy price and were pushed back in the epic war against the League of Planetary Wills,causing their remaining forces to go into hiding..
However,compared to the price that the League of Planetary Wills payed to push back The Gatherers , their victory could be counted as a defeat..
Only three out of the fifty Planetary Wills and the life forms on their worlds remained by the end of the war, laden with injuries and half depleted reserves of ether in their ether cores...
The League of Planetary Wills ,a mighty hegemon that was able to push back The Gatherers, now consisted of only the Planetary Wills of the human, the Elven and dwarven worlds..
However ,We, the remaining Planetary Wills knew that The Gatherers would return and their retreat was to a point where we may stand little to no chance against them on their return... This meant that our worlds were at a greater risk of extinction, than survival.. Then as though an epiphany had struck us, we came up with an idea... Even though we knew this plan had a little chance at success , we decided to pin our hopes on it, after all,we had nothing to lose..." The Planetary Will of my World, the human world, paused... then stared at me...
Honestly, I stood there in a daze..
My breathing seemed...ragged..
....
My brain seemed to be in some sort of shock from all the shocking information that overturned my worldview....
"Where do I come in".. I asked her again...
I was not simple minded... I knew I had a role to play in all this...
If not... why would she summon me here?..
Why would she tell me all of this..?..
Why would she give me that look at the end of that last statement..?...
The Planetary Will of the Human World heaved a sigh "You keep interrupting me ,young one..However, keep listening.."
