The Creature Arc

A tale from the nothing land

The whisps of old prophets hollowed the sacred grounds. The nothing had a voice, or maybe a thousand voices, all in one. A poet, a magician, a professor, even a chemist. But the nothing could not picture a substance washing ashore.

A boy washed ashore, around seven of eight. A symbol almost like a demented X plastered across the boys back. Bloodshot eyes and a face born of anger. The boy didn't speak, but the essence of his being cried in fear, and then nothing. And then... Pure, Chaos.

The birth of Chaos

The nothing taught the boy the way of acceptance. And commuting through spells. Speach was a weakness. Strength was a gift, and Sacrifice was a pleasure.

The anger and fear and loneliness, all crumbling and becoming one emotion. An emotionless emotion, and a burning wall of fire holding back the Chaos.

The boy was referred to as Chaos, for that is all the emotion that he brought to the table. Without it, the boy would be dead- or cast out by the nothingness. Taking a liking, the nothing trained this machine made man in the coming years.

But to what benefactor...

Surely the nothing had other plans. Yet, no...

The nothing just wanted a friend. Even if, the friend was a ticking bomb.

A child to the nothing, and then- the gemstone reacted.

And the boy, began to leak emotion. The gemstones, for what reason did they feel the boy?...

But now, the boy had a purpose. The gemstones- and anything within his path; would suffer... To pure...Chaos.

Extinction of the Nothing land

You might say that it is impossible to kill nothing. But that wasn't true, it couldn't be in this case. Blood rained from the skies as the boy ripped the gemstone from its resting place. The nothing cried in agony as the seas around the island shook. The sky roared and dark flooded the area around the boy. The burning look through his eyes, solidifying the goal of a monster.

The boy knew what he had to do... Kill anything, ANYTHING that stood in the way of the Gemstones colliding.
