There was nothing, nothing at all. Where Am I?
I have no idea how long I have been here, but it feels like I have existed here for a long time. I grow weaker and weaker as time continues. All I think of is floating in the sea with something pulling me toward the depths. I don't know how long my soul will last in this place, and I don't remember who or what I was. It hurts; something feels like it's missing.

“Here it is”??? The Being of pure light said as it looked at a blackened crystal ball. I was looking into the crystallized seal of darkness. “I warned you that the war would never end. You were such an idiot, thinking that you would save everyone. It brings me great pleasure to finally get rid of you.” Light said. The being of light held up a small fragment of light. “When you were alive, we took a piece of your soul. Even our lord said to keep you from gaining power again, to destroy this part of you so that you may never rise.” Light said. Holding the fragment between the fingers of light, it raised it over a small creature of pure darkness locked inside a box covered in seals. “I truly did warn you. My love, but never would you listen to reason, even when our lord told you to stop your foolish path. So this is my final goodbye to you. What is left of you will be thrown into the void for the abominations to eat.” Light said.
The sliver of soul fell into the maw of the small. And a tear, in reality, opened as the crystal ball of darkness was thrown into the incision.

Pain struck me as I floated there in the darkness. A hole appeared in my light. The dim light of what was left of me had dimmed even more as a pitch-black hole was left in the center of the weakened dim light.
Darkness keeps seeping into the hole, eating away at what little light remains.

Tendrils of magic stretched out and caught the small ball of crystalline darkness as it entered her domain. “Why are you here, the little one made of light but broken? I always wanted a child of light, though it is a shame that your soul has been fractured. Because of that, you will die soon.” Mother said. The ball shattered by the pure power that radiated off of her just by her mere presence.
“I may be able to save you, but you will suffer for a very long time because no creature of light has ever lived in the Void without dying. Any monster born here will hunt and chase after you, trying to snuff out the light left within you. So I'll ask you, little one, do you wish to live with the chance that someday you will be strong enough to live without fear? Or would you want me to send for the reaper to come and collect that which is already on death's door?” Mother said. She looked down on my broken soul with her warm, compassion-filled eyes. She was waiting for me to answer her.

I tried to speak or say anything, but no words came out. I didn't want to die; I wanted to live. I wanted to survive. Seeing something within my soul, the beautiful woman in front of me seemed to understand what I wanted to say to her.
“I see little light. So you wish to live. I shall give you a small piece of myself to heal the damaged part of your soul. With this, you will be changed.” Mother said. She cut a bit of her hair, started to fix what was done to me, and sealed it with a drop of her blood, a deep midnight blue with purple streaks. “With this, I have made you one of my children, bound by blood but not birth. You will meet many of my children in the void and have to kill or be killed. I love all of my children, but if one dies, it just means they weren't strong enough to survive. I hope you live long enough to meet me again. Not only that, but I will give you a name when you are a tier 4. Rest now because I will send you to a safe place where you can evolve into a new form that will help you. Goodbye, my son, and always know that I am always watching.” Mother said. Kissing me, she let me fall from her hand.
As I fell, everything slowly faded, and a deep sleep took me in its embrace.
