Birth Of The Anathema

At exactly 2:34 AM

A brilliant rainbow light shines through Alista's window

He leans up from his bed and drowsily looks at the light

"What is that light" He got up out of bed and looked out his window when he saw an object covered in the same light heading towards him at an impossible speed

He tried to move out of the way, but the rainbow object was faster. It crashed into him and smashed him through his door, and into the hallway Illuminating the entire hallway in a rainbow light

He leaned up and saw the object shrinking into his body, causing his entire body to turn rainbow and starting to violently convulse.

A semi-big man walked out of his dorm and began to check out what happened until he saw Alista and rushed over to check on him "I'll tell the clerk! maybe she could alert the sanctum and get the instructors over here!" the man rushed off and ran downstairs.

...

Couple minutes later

A group of people rushed up the stairs and surrounded Alista's still rainbow and convulsing body

"hurry up! we have to get him to the courtyard, then we can see what's going on" he along with four other people picked Alista up and started to take him to the main sanctum.

as they got to the middle of the courtyard they placed Alista down and more groups of people rushed out from the sanctum

"psychics! give us a check up on him!" the psychics all surrounded Alista and attempted to get into his mind

"W-we can't get into his mind! theirs something blocking us from accessing his mind" suddenly, cracks in reality opened up

"Demons?! invading right now?!" Pure red, sword wielding demons ran through the portals and attacked all the 'Enkidians'

"Everyone defend!" All the Enkidians began to unsheathe their weapons and surrounded the psychics

The Demons charged directly towards Alista and brushed aside everyone else

"Their targets aren't us?" The Enkidians began to banish the Demons using the powers of their 'Gates'

Suddenly, Alista's body stopped convulsing but still glowed rainbow until the rainbow glow began to merge into his body, soul, and psyche

All of the psychics began to scream, as if they saw God and burn up in flames leaving only ashes

Alista leaned up, his eyes filled with pure white power, a brilliant light above his head like a halo glowed like a billion suns. With a simple wave of his hand, bolts of thunder all struck the Demons instantly vaporizing them and leaving a large crater in their wake! and with another wave of his hand all cracks in reality instantly seal up!

After all of this is over he returned to normal and passed out.

one of the Enkidians with black hair walked over to Alista with a surprised but almost scared look on his face

"What kind of power was that..."

Another one of the Enkidians, with a ginger hair color walks to him "The Annuliums are here, they've come to see what the commotion was. Bring him with us, they're gonna want to see for themselves who or what caused all this..."

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

They picked him up and brought him into the main part of the building where the Annuliums were

Once they entered the room they saw two people, one of them with a prominent nose, beard and a slightly wrinkled face. The other a grey haired, slim faced individual

"who is this and what is the point of bringing him here" the Annulium with the wrinkled face said with an annoyed tone

One of the Enkidians spoke up "he demonstrated some... unimaginable power and we suspect the Demons invaded specially for him. He was convulsing and asleep for almost all of the incursion but when he did awaken, he defeated every demon at the same time and closed the rips. He is too dangerous to be kept here"

The Annuliums glanced at each other before turning back to the Enkidians "I see. we'll take him, but what do you think we'll do with him?"

The black haired Enkidian spoke up "kill him or train him, we don't know but we just need him out of this sanctum he is far too dangerous for us to keep here"

The grey haired Annulium spoke up "then our business here should be done"

The wrinkly Annulium "it seems so"

They opened a portal to a carriage outside and dragged Alista through it then threw him in the floor

The wrinkled Annulium spoke to the carriage driver "we'll be going to the royal palace"

"Yes my lord's" The carriage driver motioned for the horses to move

...

At 5:49 AM

They arrive at the royal palace, its massive gate towered over everything

The Annuliums grabbed Alista by the back of the neck and dragged him into the palace

"we have to test and see what 'Gates' you have and what magnitude they are"

They stopped in front of a large gate and looked up at the large beautiful gate

"open the gate we have a present for the king" The gate opened revealing what seemed to be a mountain of stairs and another gate at the end

They stepped through the gate and started to climb up the stairs

...

After a couple minutes of them walking up the stairs

"when you get in there I would advise you to not look at the king. you'll likely die"

they arrived at another gate that opened as they reached the final step and headed into the long dark hardwood throne room

The beautiful grey haired blue eyed king sat on a large white throne covered in blue gems throne at the end in a white-blueish full body armor with sapphires lining a large cape

The Annuliums pushed Alista down in a kneeling position then kneel themselves

"My lord we found someone interesting. We suspect he could be of great use, given enough training"

The king got up from his throne, walked over to Alista and helped him stand up

"M-my lord he could die if he looks at you!" The two Annuliums look up and screamed out in worry before seeing Urizen face the King unharmed

"W-what?"

"I had a feeling you'd be able to survive." The king looked at Alista with a bit of reverence and a gentle smile on his face

"My name is Uro, what is yours?"

"My name is Urizen" Alista looked at Uro with a bit of fearfulness but also a slight hint of relaxation "its just that look of his... he isn't how I expected the king of Zamor to be like, I'd thought he'd be more tyrannical based on how the Annuliums described him"

Uro looks at the Annuliums at signals for them to leave, so the Annuliums get up and walk out of the throne room

"lets see what 'Gates' you have"

Uro led Alista to a table and motioned for him to sit on it

"just lay down and relax. you will be cold at first but that's only due to my 'Gate' everything else will be fine"

Alista hesitantly lied down and Uro placed his hand over Alista's heart

Uro began to speak in an incoherent language as Alista's chest turned almost an icy cold

...

After a couple more seconds of doing this

Uro moves his hand away from Alista and sighed

"you have five 'Gates' but they seem to be the Annulium level" Uro conjured an icy vision in his hands and sat next to Alista showing him the vision

"you have five 'Gates', the Time 'Gate' which you cant stop time or anything like that yet but you can see further into the future or possibly even the past, the Transmutation 'Gate' which means you can altar your form, the space 'Gate', the weather 'Gate', and the Mind 'Gate'. Remember all of these 'Gates' are at the Annulium level so their all immensely powerful, I want you to know that if people were to find out about this you would likely be hunted by people hoping to get stronger or by people who want to enslave you... but I doubt they would be able to actually beat you, unless a deity gets involved then I'm afraid there is not much you could do other than run

Uro paused for a second

"now that your 'Gates' are taken care of, I'm seriously debating on whether or not to train you myself because as far as I know you would brutally slaughter almost every Anhram. Now then any questions or concerns?"

Alista touched his chin before and moved his head side to side

Uro smiled softly at him before he got up

"oh and by the way. I commissioned a sword that adapts to the wielders hand size and strength, it should be ready for you in a couple of days"

He walked out of the room and left Alista there alone to his thoughts "why is Uro so nice? those two Annuliums had made him seem so tyrannical like he was gonna kill me with a simple glance or if I so much as breathed in the wrong way?"
