Chapter 14 – The First Law of the Self-Written World
> "The moment you write your first truth, the old ones burn."
– Unknown Anomaly
---
Everything was… quiet.
Too quiet.
A world reborn should be loud—chaos, creation, screams of birth. But not this time.
Kaian had rewritten the Omega Frame, preserving only one truth: himself.
The System didn't understand what that meant. It tried to reconstruct laws, hierarchies, and timelines from scraps. But Kaian's presence warped its logic.
Wherever he stood… rules bent.
Wherever he looked… causality hesitated.
Wherever he walked… reality paused, asking for permission.

[NEW WORLD BOOTING…]
— Primary Law Required
— Awaiting Sovereign Directive

Kaian stood at the center of the nascent world.
Below him: blank terrain.
Above: a sun not yet named.
Around him: echoes of forgotten beings awakening from memoryless slumber.
The Godkiller stood at his side, arms crossed. "It's time. Write it."
Kaian raised the Pen—now no longer just a tool, but the will of existence itself.
He drew in the air, across the sky itself, a glowing line that seared with intent.
And with his voice, he declared:
> "Law One: The Self is Sacred. None may write you but you."

[NEW WORLD INITIATED]
— First Law Accepted
— Sovereign Authority: LOCKED
— Rewrite Permission: GRANTED TO SELECTED INDIVIDUALS
---
Suddenly, across the cosmos, beings began to tremble.
Not out of fear.
But because they, too, felt the Pen call to them.
The rewritten world would not be ruled by a single god.
Not even Kaian.
It would be a realm where the forgotten, the suppressed, the rewritten, and the erased—could all become authors of themselves.
And Kaian…
He would be their beacon.

Elsewhere: The Architect Watches
He saw the First Law sear itself into the core of reality.
> "He made it unbreakable…"
The Architect gritted his teeth. "Then we'll do what we always do."
> "We'll create a story… that buries his."
"And make the world forget freedom ever existed."
Behind him, he gestured.
A sealed vault cracked open.
And from it, emerged a boy with closed eyes and golden cuffs.
> The Rewrite Eater.
A being born to destroy free narratives.

Back in Kaian's Realm
As the new world began to write itself around Kaian's Law, he closed his eyes for just a moment.
And whispered:
> "Now come find me."
> "All of you who were forgotten."
"All of you who were broken."
"Come write your story—next to mine."
