EX

There was no power besides magic that could do something like this, it’s like I was cursed, before I could get the words out, it spoke. There in my mind, as if I was thinking but in another voice “You are cursed, kid.” The God stated simply. Just when had it invaded my mind? I checked my surroundings, even the corners of my vision, the spaces in between, my truesight never deactivated, but there was no sign of it.

“You must really have no idea who you are, just how much have you forgotten? how much have they lied to you?” The feeling of another person thinking in my brain was so uncanny I couldn’t focus on anything else, I didn’t know how I was supposed to communicate with something like this, or if I should even listen to what it says, it is the God of Lies after all.

”Believe whatever you want, kid, I can function just fine in your body, but that can’t be said for every human on this planet, just as much as I am here, they are as well, your body is simply trying to find a more fitting form to compensate for your power, that is your curse.” My body was always different, bigger, stronger, I never knew why but I was born this way. I was cursed since birth to contain the power within, Jupiter and Eruopa told me that my armor was built to contain the curse… yet it still manifested.

And yet the question remained, who cursed me? and why? “That’s simple enough, we did.” The God spoke, admitted fault… no not fault, guilt? no… truth?

“As the God of Lies, my role was to obscure, after all, there are some things that humanity is better off not knowing, yet those two always strived to break every rule, uncover every truth, break the very world they were but a guest in, outsiders all the same, they think this is some sort of game or a toy to break, if I had one question for the King I would ask why they exist.” The God spoke with contempt, this group somehow earned the ire of the Gods, especially whoever the ‘two’ were, and this was the second time it mentioned the ‘King’, I couldn’t imagine he was talking about the Dreg King, so what was it?

Then it went quiet. “Do you think I would tell you? my words are measured and you’ll never get the whole truth out of me, though.. maybe that’s a lie too, from inside your body I can make sure you never uncover a single truth in my presence, if you offer me shelter from a single human and you believe me to be on your side? you’ll be sorely mistaken.” It made threats towards me even though it held back against me in that fight, is it just another lie? I feel like I am starting to feel the effects of having this God inhabit my mind…
