Within the very depths of the mind and soul, a spiritual void devoid of depth and direction or up and down that consumes everything in its space. Every living being contains they're own spiritual void located within the deepest parts of the soul, with the only way to enter is only in deep sleep or meditation as it’s a formless realm where physical mortal beings can’t enter unless the soul allows others to enter while in deep sleep. With the only things left is the soul’s emotions and memories, which spiral into unrecognizable shapes eventually changing back to the same haunting emptiness forever trapped in an endless loop. Amidst the consuming void, a faint spark slowly starts showing itself, as a whisper of light buried among the darkness suddenly starts speaking.
The Voice within the black void: "How long has it really been since that day? 100, 200, 1000 years. From that very day where everything changed". This strange voice said with a serious yet sad tone.
The Voice within the black void: "That same day where I lost pretty much everything and everyone I hold closely dear. Momo, King Goliath, Life Rider, Kaha and the death I took the worst......Lonely Prince".
The Voice within the black void: "I still wonder what were their last thoughts before facing death . Did they see their life's flash before their eyes or were they too focused on the moment itself to realize such things. I will never know or will anyone in fact as their whole being had been forgotten to all creation within death with only a few still remembering them". "But there is one thing I definitely know for a fact, that they died without any regrets while serving to protect all of creation from Lordanis while leaving everything to the next generation knowing everything would be alright. Mainly leaving everything to me".
The Voice within the black void: "Where does that leave me? I was always known as the weakest among the royal guard, they used to call me the forgotten child of creation and never knew why they gave me that nickname". "Even so, Kaha and Prince already seem afraid of my power especially during my training before Lordanis attacked. Weirdest things would also happen every time I blackout during fights, especially when The True Writer was around".
While this voice continues talking whispers slowly start to show it as it gets louder but the voice continues to speak.
The Voice within the black void: “I always felt that we may have something in common, what that would be. I wouldn't have a clue, that man always had secrets hidden from everyone around him. I would like to know where I come from as I don’t really remember much from my early years aside from a dream I have every night where a boy encounters a demon-like figure as its darkness swallows everything within sight ending with me waking me up”.
The same whispers started echoing even louder to the point it’s slowly taking over the original voice, turning said mere whispers into violence chants.
These chants were from these mysterious voice memories, showing all of the voice’s most tragic memories slowly isolating everything else only hearing madness in incarnate and nothing else. That would be the case until everything becomes silent, all we see is two silhouettes talking to each other but we can’t hear anything, it seems like a memory from a bygone era. We may not know the context of this memory but it feels nostalgic to the voice, giving the same voice some harmony as shown with all the other voices being silenced with only nothing being left. The voice returned with a new memory showing up with a woman smiling saying “I may have lost a lot of things in my lifetime and I wouldn’t know where I would be today if I haven’t had them by my side. Who knows what would remain when I lose sight of everything”.
More familiar faces started to show up within the black void as the voice started showing itself, while it slowly started phasing into a human like form it say
The Voice within the black void: “Even when The true writer left this world to protect all of creation from annihilation, he left some words for me before leaving. He said
The True Writer: "Don't make the same mistakes as I did and learn from them”.

The Voice within the black void: “That was the only time I saw him smile and that’s what I want to protect, not just protecting the smiles of my close friends and family but the smiles of all creations so no one has to suffer unfairly”. The voice’s slowly turned around to say “Now creation has someone new to challenge it”.
Suddenly another voice interrupted this human-like figure saying
Unknown voice: “Yourupt responded back to me”.
The black void also suddenly disappeared and everything transitioned to a man in the air falling down while having multiple energy coming at him fast. With the man now fully aware of his surroundings hear the same female voice from before
Unknown voice: “Yourupt are you there”.
Yourupt: “I’m alright Luna just had a quick nap that’s all.
Luna: You seem like you were enjoying that nap but I hate to wake you up from your nap but I’m locating multiple energy projectiles heading your way fast”.
Yourupt: “Thanks for the head up Luna, now summon Twin Divine Wrath Daggers”.
Yourupt pulls out his main weapons from his coak, to deflect the incoming attacks with ease. While still falling in the air, Yourupt saw a figure coming at him at a fast rate.
Luna: “Yourupt another incoming attack from the target is about to engage”.
Yourupt didn’t have time to respond to Luna as he was too occupied in making sure he had time to react to the attack by blocking it. Luckily he made it in time, taking on the hit at full force sending the both of them head first into the ground causing massive damage to the snowy environment. Both titans were able to recover quickly from the encounter as both jumped out of the smoky debris caused by the shadowy figure destructive attack. It seems that the both of them were untouched but Yourupt has been hit on his right shoulder caused by the shadowy figure attack as Yourupt started to lump from the attack.
Luna: “Are you alright?’
Yourupt: “Didn’t expect that attack to have such a stinging effect like that at all”.
Luna: “I’m getting readings that the figure used Mana infused with the attack, which explains why he was able to bypass your body’s defenses”.
Yourupt: “Which also explains why the damage doesn’t looks so bad but hurts like fucking hell”.
Luna: “What did I say about swearing”.
Yourupt: Sorry but I’m a bit pissed off that bastard got a hit on me”.
Luna: “Yourupt!”.
Yourupt: Sorry I’ll take you out on dinner after this as a penalty for swearing”.
Luna: “Deal but back on topic, all your vitals seem okay on my end so I don’t know why that attack did as much damage as it did, since your body is tough enough to tank attacks from Wfighter”.
Yourupt: “His mana has to be strong if it takes longer for my healing factor to heal my wound but I need to see more before deciding if he knows the advanced forms of mana”.
Luna: “Speaking of mana, it seems like your own mana level is quite off right now”.
As Luna mentions his mana levels, he could feel that his own mana is weaker than usual. Which was weird as Yourupt has been training his mana mastery with what was left from The true writer old books on mana. Yourupt remembers from the books that a condition called spiritual imbalance which is caused due to the body not being able to handle the amount of mana being poured into him but with the help of weapons created with the soul and the blacksmith of the unknown or just meditating could also help. It noted in the books that they are only temporary solutions and actual solutions were torn from the pages long ago, this could prove problematic in the future but Yourupt needed to focus on the present right now, so he kept that info from Luna so she doesn't worry and focus on the current situation.
Yourupt:” I’ll manage for now, just give me a few minutes to warm up these muscles that are itching for a fight”.
Luna: “That's what I’m afraid of”.
The shadowy figure shows itself through the smoky debris, it shows itself as a huge man with a cloak that looks like actual shadows with the figure finally spoked.
Shadowy Figure: I must be quite blessed to be in the presence of the legendary apex predator himself”
Yourupt: “You have to do better than just damaging a fraction of my insides, if you're not careful I might chop your head with one finger”.
As Yourupt drags his thumb across his neck while releasing some of his mana represented as a dark blue aura surrounded around him showing how they call him The apex predator. The shadowy figure was amazed by the display of power so he revealed a sword hidden within his cloak and started to grow in size. Slowly growing bigger, the figure also started to grow wings and tail which look like a lizard of some type. Once the figure finished he transformation it’s revealed that the figure is a dragon hybrid named Umbryx of the shadows.
Umbryx: “Try chopping something you can’t touch like my shadows….HAHAHAHAHA
Umbryx also started to unleash his own mana which is shown as dark blood red aura. Both mana’s continue to clash with each other’s Whakarongo Mana trying to take control over the other, flexing their mastery over mana . Having enough of wasting time, the both of them stopped the clash as these titans stared each other down waiting for one of them to make a move.
