The surrounding space fell apart. Each fragment gradually shattered to dust before merging into the expanding pit of nothingness which was located right where the portal that bridged this shattered universe, to the one Daniel had fought Corrosion once was. Despite how quickly the battle between him and Corrosion had been, having only taken about a minute in total, that encounter could not compare to what Daniel was witnessing. The expansion of the black hole was so rapid that it could keep up with the…-

“ARGH!” Daniel groaned in pain. A new form of power had landed on his body at a speed he could not react to, blasting its way halfway through his flesh and muscles, and leaving him riddled in fist-sized bleeding holes. Unfortunately, that was not the end of the devastation this power would cause him. Daniel did not need to think to realize that another aspect of existence had arrived-and that its appearance, regardless of whether its purpose was to save the aspect of Corrosion, or to face him,…

Both existential essences thrashed towards one another while leaving rings of residual power in their wake, only taking a fraction of a moment before finally colliding. While most would have expected for the clash to cause a universe-shattering impact, however, that was not the case. The spear of Karma, immensely purer than its opposition, pierced right through the blades of Corrosion without creating any shockwave or sound. It then continued forward.. For it to move past the six corrosive blades…

Elijah’s suicide came as a surprise to both Daniel and Corrosion. Both were painfully aware of the resilient nature of Destiny’s champions, and to see one so broken in spirit and mind, Corrosion could not help but be taken aback. Even Daniel, the aspect of Karma himself, was left astonished. It suddenly became clear to him that the punishment of negative karma was much heavier than he had imagined. “And here I thought he was your guide.. Turns out he was your prisoner.” The aspect of…

As half of the aspects of existence heeded to Fate’s orders, Daniel had made his way to conflict’s territory. With closed eyes he advanced past the vast water-like gate, until his skin was hit by a rough feeling. Distracted by it, he slowly opened his eyes, and could not help but feel surprised by what he saw. The space within Conflict’s universe was unlike any other Daniel had ever experienced. The natural essences within Conflict’s domain, while still unowned, were imbued with the chaotic…

As Fate repeated the name ‘Conflict’ to himself, he finally realized what was happening. A vortex of questions began rotating within his mind, all falling into place as if to uncover a piece of fate’s fabric that he himself had never seen. Why had Conflict personally stopped the destruction of that specific universe? Why had he adopted that universe into his territory? Why had his domain refused the other domains’ help in eradicating Destiny’s spawn, protecting their territory until it was too…

The words uttered by Destiny were few in number, yet immensely impactful to all those who heard them. As surprisingly sharp and painful as papercuts, these words slashed through the very existence of the aspect of Fate, whose youthful face was stricken by a deep sense of anger, confusion and self doubt. His knowledge and nature.. His very existence had been challenged by these few words. Words so powerful that they chipped away at the undefeatable power of the universe’s fate, which, although in an…

The simple motion of eyes opening was able to blow away the dust that had accumulated on the vast surfaces of the temple for uncountable eons, giving way for an almost tangible light which radiated with impossible brilliance, and making the atmosphere extremely heavy. Both this blinding light and feeble, yet unstoppable wind were accompanied by an overpowering pressure. One that did not weigh on the shoulders of others, but that grip at their throat, squeezing every form of rebelliousness out of their…

After the death of Equilibrium, and the departure of her murderer Conflict, Daniel was left standing by himself, in a patch of space that once hosted the encounter of three aspect of existence, but that had now gone back to its usual quiet state. In his mind, Daniel could not help but reconsider his position. While his encounter with the aspect of Equilibrium had almost been fatal, and had cost him something that the former he wouldn't have been able to put a value on, the current Daniel, as the aspect…

As Daniel stared at the middle-aged man with narrowed eyes, Equilibrium's attention was split between the two. On one hand, she couldn't understand how Daniel could have managed to erase the imbalance his existence had created, while on the other, she could not explain the reason for Conflict's presence. Nevertheless, regardless of her surprise, Equilibrium did not lose her composure. She nodded faintly as she uttered, "It is always nice to see you, Brother." Hidden deep within her tone Daniel could…
