Ananta's POV

I woke up only to see Genesis floating in front of me, and I couldn't help but feel proud. The creation of Genesis would be one of the greatest things I would ever do in my entire existence, but I knew I had to move before I could be finished. What I need right now is a system for the dead, as I could already see souls that had dimmed in luminescence leaving the planet. These souls aren't the pure, basic souls that I created, as they were tainted by the experience of life.

"Anyway, enough of the inner monologue," I chuckled to myself. Raising my hands, I started to glow as ripples traveled through the surrounding space.

BOOM!

I had just laid the foundation for the two realms that would be the start of the afterlife I had planned.

Flying forward, I passed through a membrane only to arrive in a dimension filled with nothing. I snapped my fingers as golden floating clouds started to pop into existence as far as the realm could allow. Ripping the space right in front of me, I walked through the tear, arriving at the epicenter of the realm as a glorious floating white palace radiating golden-like light was being built in the air. This would be where my child who would rule this realm would live, as this is where all things related to my universe, the realms, or any other planets created would be discussed.

Walking through the palace permeated with intricate designs, I came towards massive doors that, after a few seconds of admiration, I pushed open, revealing a colossal hall with a platform at the end of it with a hundred steps leading to what could only be a throne—a throne that seemed to be made out of the stars themselves. Walking up towards the throne, I couldn't help but admire it for a few seconds before waking down afterward. A throne didn't fit me; I wasn't a ruler but more of a parent who was meant to guide the children I had created.

Looking at the realm, I shouted. "Henceforth, you shall be known as the Heaven Realm!" Responding to my word, the Heaven Realm once faint golden-like light shined with even greater ferocity.

Stepping out of the Heaven Realm, I stepped into another dimension filled with nothing. With another snap of my fingers, gray and silver clouds came to be, but that was not all, as a boundless white ocean formed at the bottom of the realm and slowly shrank, turning into a large river that led to an expansive mountain range. At the edge of the river, another palace radiating a silver-like light had a bridge connecting to the ocean that led to the gigantic entrance. This bridge would be where my children's souls would walk, waiting for their chance to be judged to be reincarnated or, with enough good karma, to have a chance at becoming angels.

Looking at the realm, I whispered, "Henceforth, you shall be known as the Karmic Realm."

BOOM!

And just like her sister realm, the realm shone with greater vigor in response to its name.

Leaving the Karmic Realm behind, I floated out to the edge of my universe, further than I had ever been before. I poured energy into my eye as I saw the Heaven and Karmic realms enveloping Genesis with a lot of space like a lot enveloped in a thin sphere the size of what I could only describe as twenty solar systems, so it could protect the mortal realm from any harm that could befall it. Looking at Genesis and the surrounding space that was enveloped within the sphere, as I dubbed it the Mortal Realm, even though everything started with Genesis, didn't mean it ended with Genesis.

However, my universe also needed to grow so it could support the creation of other planets.

Third POV

Ananta, staring at his creation, put his hands together as silver light bloomed within them. Upon opening his hands, a silver string was revealed. He held the string with his fingers as he sowed the string into the epicenter of each realm, connecting them as one, but that wasn't the only connection formed, for as the string allowed the passage of souls into each realm to fulfill their purpose more efficiently now that they have a path they can follow, it also allowed for equal growth between all of them, for as one of them grew, so did the others, strengthening their defenses and increasing the potency of their energy.

Ananta chuckled after seeing his creation, "A creator's job is never complete." whilst thinking of the future children he would create.
