The light fades away from the circle as Izo nervously blinks trying to clear her blinded sight. After a while, Izo is able to marginally see with bright stars in her eyes. Glancing down at her hand, Izo notices that the jelly shaped mark on her hand is now glowing a deep crimson red.
Glancing back up, Izo notices that the rest of the deities are gone except for Odin and the pink jelly. The pink jelly tiredly swims towards her and nestles into her lap to rest. Izo glances at Odin as he leans heavily on his cane, before falling into his seat.
Odin notices Izo’s perturbed stare and says, “We used up a great deal of our stored power to declare our new faction. We will retire for a time to the god realm to recuperate. Do you have any last questions, for our time is short?”
“What color are Harmony’s representative’s marks? Secondly, are there are any other envoys in my current world? And most importantly, could I return to my original world and destroy the goddess, who cursed me?” Izo breathlessly asked.
“Your first two questions are easy to answer, Harmony’s envoy’s marks glow as a bright silver. And at the moment, you are the only current envoy present on your world. All envoys have been recalled back to the godly realm as the two factions decide their next move. You shall be safe for a time from those chosen envoys, but that does not mean that envoys shall not be chosen from your world. Many Gods who have yet to choose an envoy and they may very well come one from your world,” Odin gravely replied.
“However, I am afraid that your third question is not so easy to answer. For you see, it is impossible to return you to your original world. The minor God overseeing your original world was forced to rectify the loss by erasing your existence and replacing your loss with another child. Your parents or anyone for that matter have no memory of your existence. The same applies to your colleagues who were forcibly summoned as well, they will all be given the chance to be reborn once more.
The minor Goddess in question, Elwyn, who performed the forced the summoning has since been recalled back to the godly realms to be dealt with. Her powers of administration over that world have since been revoked and she has returned to the Godly planes to serve her master, Aphrodite,” Odin said.
Izo quietly clenches her teeth together in anger before trusting herself to speak, “So, it is impossible for me to return, after all, well, that is expected. For my friends to be given a chance that is kind as well. But that witch gets off with a light slap? That I cannot forgive.” Izo’s eyes glow with a cold darkness as she bitterly adds, “So, what do I have to do have the limit removed off my stats to kill her?”
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Odin almost moves back at the fury contained in the envoy’s eyes. Odin thoughtfully studies Cthulhu for a moment in deep thought. Anyone that the God of Madness chose as an envoy would certainly carry that same madness within themselves after all.
After a moment, Odin carefully answers, “There may be an opportunity to do so in the future, but first I need your solemn vow to stay your hand until it is time to do so? Can you solemnly vow to obey this command?”
“Yes, but I except for you to hold your end of the bargain,” Izo vehemently stated.
Odin nods in approval and says, “Thank you for your candor, but alas even a great God such as I cannot unbind which has been done to your very soul. However, I can give you two choices to choose from.
First, you can choose to be reborn as were your colleagues and to grow up once more. But all the while you shall retain your previous life's memories and your role as that of an envoy. With enough time, you can even challenge the Goddesses ‘mortal form in the champion courts and slay her mortal form which will wound her divine soul.
However, I do not believe that is what you desire. And that leads us to our second option, you may choose to become a minor god and challenge that minor Goddess in the minor God’s court to a soulful death. Should you win her every existence shall be erased down to her soul.
But a word of caution to this selection, should you choose to become a minor god, you will live forever should, should not be killed in the minor courts. Mortals transfigured into Minor God’s cannot often deal with the aftermath of their selection. Many go mad with the pain and sorrow as their loved ones succumb to death one after another until their very existence is all but forgotten by the mortal world. Are you certain this is what your heart truly desires?”
Izo is quiet in thought for a moment, before gravelly replying, “I promised I would avenge them and a promise must be kept.”
“Let me warn you one last time. Should you become a minor god you shall retain your restricted mortal form in the champion courts and in the mortal realms. And secondly, your own, minor god form will only ever possess 1/3rd of Cthulhu’s strength. Are you still certain of this choice?” Odin asked once more.
“Yes, I am certain,” Izo replied without a shred of doubt.
Odin nods and glances at the pink jelly who darts up to rub Izo’s cheek before darting away. Odin says, “You may feel a small pressure-,” as the pink jelly begins to brightly glow. Izo lets out a scream as her very soul feels as if it’s being ripped apart. Everything goes black as Izo falls into a blissful daze.
