Darkness...
Unending Darkness...
No Sound...
No Light...
Only the cold touch of emptiness as my body floats endlessly in the abyss...
Why was I here?
How was I here?
I don't know...
I don't even remember my own name now...
I can't remember...
As I floated in the endless abyss, a Blinding light so bright and overwhelming appeared all around me as it illuminated the void I was trapped in.
Beautiful... That's what all I could think of at that moment, I saw the birth of an entire universe and saw it's inevitable end as the last light of the universe died out.
And that's when it all came rushing back like a tidal wave, memories of a life I once lived, I was human.. a creature that could bring immense destruction and pain, while all the while care for those and do good among my kind.
I was once a man named... What was my name? Did I have a name?
I could remember my life from beginning to end, but... The faces of those I once knew where blurry and distorted, and at my final moments I stood in a sea of corpses, friends and family covered in blood and ash.
Why was i alive in the moment? Why did I live?
But as the feeling of dread and guilt weighed on me I saw my own lifeless body alone in my home, slumped inside a bathtub as blood begins to drip from my wrist.
"How... how did this happen?"
"You survived "
I quickly turned my head to the voice, and what I saw was nothing more than... Disturbing.
A mound of flesh, tentacles and eyes surrounded the creature, it was unlike anything I've ever laid eye's upon.
"Fear not human, and bear witness, the lurker at the threshold."
"What do you want from me?" I said trying to control my fear at that moment.
"I came to grant you a reward "
"A reward?"
"Yes, you where the last creature to exist at the end your reality"
"What do you mean by reward?"
"As a reward for being the single last living and sentient creature of your universe I am granting you the power and title of Daemon Sultan."
To say I was shocked in that moment was an understatement, the daemon sultan or as everyone knows... Azathoth, I am going to receive the powers of Azathoth.
"And what am I to do with this power?"
"Whatever you like."
And at that moment my body began to change, bones cracking and breaking, muscles tearing and stretching to impossible lengths, and growing in size and gaining multiple new eyes.
I had become... Azathoth the blind idiot god.
At that moment I could feel everything, from the different realities, dimensions and timelines, all was at my mercy.
But I felt nothing at this moment... Infinite power in the palm of my hand, and yet I was still alone trapped with the being who brought me here.
I turned to it "why give me this power?" I asked hoping to receive an answer... Yet It never came...I was alone once more it the darkness of my very own abyss.
And yet I felt at home... The abyss was my home... So peaceful and quiet.
As the emptiness of this reality hummed and sang the songs of silence, I couldn't help but wonder what this world could bring.
As I slowly fell to the silence and fell to a deep slumber, dreaming of the different worlds and realities that could be.
And the chaos my very presence could bring upon those worlds.
"Oh...The sweet...silence"
