The Nature of Fates
The world is governed by two fundamental forces of fate:
Linear Fate and Boundless Fate. Both possess its own consciousness and have existed since the world's inception as two opposing cores, shaping and balancing destinies in different ways.
Linear Fate's Orb is perfectly symmetrical, radiant orb with golden or silver hues.
Pulsates with an unchanging rhythm, representing predetermination.
Understands emotions but does not express them.
Seeks absolute control, ensuring all events unfold exactly as destined.
Boundless Fate's Orb is shifting, ever-morphing orb, fluctuating between light and darkness.
Embodies infinite possibilities (not infinite power or anything, but potential and is unlocked through effort and circumstance).
Can express emotions in multiple tones and take any shape.
Represents true choice and the ability to alter one's own path.
The Archons: False Gods of the World
The Archons are powerful, immortal beings that exist beyond mortal limitations. Their origin and how long are unknown They are not supreme deities but possess enough power to rule the world entirely. Their existence is only loosely connected to fate, unlike mortals, who are fully bound to it. They're varied in shape and looks.
Archons demand worship. They declared themselves as "true gods" and forced mortals into absolute obedience.
Mortals empower them. Mortal spiritual fuel their strength, leading them to demand sacrifices.
Disobedience emerged. As some mortals resisted, the Archons viewed this as an unacceptable disruption.
Blaming Boundless Fate. They concluded that free will stemmed from its presence and sought to erase it.
The Great Suppression of Free Will
To solidify their rule, the Archons joined forces with Linear Fate. Making them now more connected with it. They feared Boundless Fate's influence and saw it as an obstacle to absolute control.
Linear Fate contributed to this alliance, as it too wished to become the supreme force.
Boundless Fate resisted, but the Archons and Linear Fate, favoring order over free will, overpowered it.
Boundless Fate was nearly destroyed, its core disintegrating and merging with every mortal's mind.
The result: Boundless Fate (Free Will and Infinite Possibilities) was severely weakened. Mortals retained only the smallest spark of choice, while major events and destinies became unalterable. Boundless Fate protect and allowed the minds to be free, not being control by Linear Fate.
Linear Fate gained dominance, crafting a world where destiny was absolute and freedom was almost fleeting illusion.
Without Boundless Fate, no true change could occur. Mortals were trapped in an eternal cycle, destined to follow a predetermined script. However, one anomaly emerged—one being untouched by neither Linear Fate's nor the Archons.
The Emergence of an infant state Nazo: A Threat to Predetermined Destiny, a being equal to other Archons.
Similar to the rest of the Archons and the two Fates. Nazo's origin was unknown. He was thought to be born from the last remnants of Boundless Fate and the unexpressed free will of mortals.
The only being equal to the Archons in power but looking perfectly like a human.
Linear Fate could not dictate his actions.
A serious threat—if he realized his potential, he could restore Boundless Fate and disrupt the Archons' dominion.
Suppressing Nazo
The Archons and Linear Fate knew they could not destroy him directly—not yet. Instead, they sought to manipulate him since he's still in infant form.
They used their might to suppress his emotions, ensuring he never connected with anything including the world and mortals.
He was raised as a tool, unaware of his origins, believing himself to be their perfect servant.
He was made into a puppet.
A beautiful illusion of free will, perfectly crafted to deceive mortals.
He could express emotions flawlessly, despite not feeling them.
Mortals saw him as a "savior" and a "guide," reinforcing their belief that fate was absolute and best left unchallenged.
The Archons' Final Plan: The True Erasure of Free Will
To permanently erase Nazo and ensure Linear Fate's absolute control, the Archons devised two options:
Imprison Nazo forever. Keep him under control, ensuring he never realizes his true nature.
Erase Boundless Fate completely. This meant eliminating every last trace of free will from mortals' souls.
If successful, Nazo would lose his power source.
With Boundless Fate truly dead, he would become erasable.
