Martin awoke. He opened his eyes only to see... nothing. A void lay endlessly before him. No colors, no white or black, just nothing.
Martin began to panic. 'What's going on.' he though as he peered in to the void, 'Where am I?' Non of Martin's questions were answered. His panic grew as the silence of the void seemed to be encroaching on Martin's very thoughts. Martin needed color, sound, or something to get his mind off the everpresent void that surrounded him. He look down toward were his body should be yet there was nothing, nothing at all.
He was panicing. 'This can't be happening. Wake up Martin, wake up!'. Even his thoughts seemed to be getting quieter. His thoughts continued to fade as as his panic turned in to fear. 'NO, no, nonononononono!'
Just before his thoughts faded out entirely a massage appeared in his mind blasting the void's ever-encroaching silence away. It was a mystical massage that acted as his becon of light to push away the darkness. A becon of something to push away the nothingness.
Martin began to regain his calm after who knows how long, but the lingering fear of the void's silence was still there. It may never truly leave him. Martin finally got over his excitement when he remembered that it was a massage not a becon of salvation. He looked (well not looking because he doesn't have a body) at the massage and it read:

-Martin Wilde your karma is high enough for you to be reincarnated as a Universe God in a newly formed universe. Do you wish to reincarnate as an Universe God: (Y / N)-
Martin sat (not really sitting) there in a stupor. 'Universe God? Karma? Reincarnate?' Martin had so many questions, so he discided to ask them.
"What is a Universe God?"
-A supreme ruler of an universe whose goal is to grow and expand the universe that they are assigned to. They have free rain to do what ever they want as long as they follow the Multi-Universal Law of Conduct.-
"What is the Multi-Universal Law of Conduct?" Martin asked without thinking.
-1. Do not surrender to the void. 2. @#*8$@3*&_Error: Access Denied.@!9*^%0&* 3. Never surrender your title and power of Universal Godhood.-
Martin was confused. "What is the Second Law of the Multi-Universal Law of Conduct, and why was I denied access to it."
-@#%*0&%$7 Error: Question Unanswerable: Access Denied #^&(**^%4*6-
Martin was now very confused as to why we wasn't allowed to see the Second Law of the MULC. Martin felt the ominous feeling behind why he couldn't see the Second Law but ignored it, after all he had a disicion to make. Martin's thought process was simple. Stay in the void and have who knows what happen or reincarnate into an Univeral God of an infant Universe. The choise was prpoble the easiest choises he had ever made in his 37 years of life. "Yes, I would like to become a Universal God!"
-Answer received. Proceed with reincarnation... Please wait.-
