ARGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
I am bored OUT OF MY MIND!
You'd think being an all powerful immortal being would be a lot of fun. Messing with mortals and all. Maybe create a few holy scriptures with way too many exaggerations and a few too many crucifixions while you're at it. There's just one teeny, weeny problem.
THERE'S LITERALLY NOBODY TO TALK TO IF YOU ARE THE GOD OF CREATION.
Sure, some of the wildlife down on the big blue planet that I call Avar was fun to mess with, maybe for the first couple of months. But nothing smart enough to have a meaningful conversation with. 'Why not just create some then?' You may think, but as it always is, it just isn't that simple. See, every creature has something inside them known as a Soul Matrix, that is the thing that houses your consciousness, memories and power. It is also really, really complex. I don't have any outside help either. I mean, sure I could just let evolution take its time, but I have neither the patience, nor the sanity to wait a million years for this. I could keep trying to code a sapient matrix, but it's akin telling a child to code a completely sentient AI. I also feel really bad for the failures, they are suffering so, so much and yet I cannot bring myself to end their miserable existence.
Screw it, I'm just gonna reincarnate someone from Earth.

I reach into the void and slash it open. A river of glowing crystals reveals itself to me, it is a beautiful display. So many colors spill into my 'Eye' and I grab one that shines a bright mixture of red, blue and black using my tendrils. This particular soul is almost triple the size of a normal human soul, I wonder how that happened, all of my probing indicates that it was a human.
I bring the soul back to my realm through the jagged crack in the void and it closes up by itself sometimes after without my power to support it
Hmm…How do I wake up a soul from a dormant state? Uh… What if I just poke it…Ok, so that’s not how I do it. Do I just wait then? Ahhh…well I could keep trying but I think I will just keep waiting.
"Wuh...Huh?" The soul mutters.
What should I say when it wakes up? Oh shoot!
"HI!!" I enthusiastically greet the soon to be Isekai victim.
"Hello... Am I dead?" the soul says in a voice that somehow made it sound like a Monday morning.
"YES YOU ARE! Also my name is Alexandria. What's yours?" I enthusiastically exclaimed(In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have reminded it of its own most likely horrible demise. That would have probably shocked most people with a normal personality).
“Mary, and hello to you too. Eldritch eyeball deity.”
“Ahhh……” I freeze up in embarrassment as I shift my form into a more presentable state. “I forgot my soul looked like this, I am so sorry for the horrible introduction. Uhh... I am still new to this kind of thing, I’m not really used to being a deity.”
“So, why am I here?” Mary questions me, accompanying the question, a vague sense of a glare shot at me. Sorry, but glares don’t really work all that well when you don’t have eyes, or eyelids, or a physical body for that matter.
“Let’s get down to business then.”
