The Ascension of Aethion
The Weapon of Wiren hovered in front of Aethion, glowing brighter than ever.
Adonai looked at his son with calm certainty.
> “You think you’re not worthy… But my weapon chose you.”
Suddenly—
A shockwave of divine energy pulsed through the Grand Hall.
One by one, every god began to feel it:
Their lost powers were returning slowly—
- Absolute Omnipotence.
- Absolute Omniscience.
- Absolute Omnipresence.
The gods looked at each other in awe and confusion.
> “What… what’s happening to us?”
Adonai smiled and turned back to Aethion.
> “Do you still think you’re unworthy?”
Aethion, eyes filled with clarity, reached out.
He grasped the Weapon of Wiren.
It pulsed with acceptance in his hand.
> “Now,” Aethion declared, “I am the ruler of the Omniverse.”
The gods erupted in joy—smiles, cheers, pure light.
Aethion walked slowly toward the Throne of Eternity, the seat of cosmic rule.
As he sat, tiny stars began to fall like snow.
A rain of divine flowers danced through the air.
And behind him, a comet blazed across the Omniversal sky—as if the very cosmos bowed to him.
Adonai watched, his eyes soft, his heart at peace.
> “I’ve waited so long for this moment,” he whispered. “I’m proud of you, my son.”
But then—
Adonai’s body began to glow.
Light poured from him, becoming radiant and formless.
The gods gasped.
Aethion stood up in shock.
> “Dad?! What’s happening?!”
Adonai’s form shimmered—turning into thousands of vibrant butterflies, each one glowing with a unique color of creation.
Aethion rushed toward him.
> “Please—don’t go! Stay! Tell me you're okay!”
Adonai’s voice echoed, soft and eternal.
> “Finally… I’m free. Aethion… you are not just my son. You are a divine light, your light will not let any evil dark force prevail.”
The butterflies scattered, vanishing into the endless sky.
His final whisper lingered…
> “Goodbye… my Aethion.”
And with that, Adonai’s entire body turned into a swirl of glowing butterflies, vanishing into the divine sky.
Aethion collapsed to his knees in tears.
All the gods stood silent—mourning the loss of the One True God.
They slowly gathered around Aethion, comforting him.
> “Don’t cry, Aethion… Your father may have left, but his spirit and memories live on inside you.”

Days Later
The Omniverse slowly began to breathe again under Aethion’s rule.
One day, while alone in the Hall of Silence, Aethion noticed a small box placed gently on an altar.
He walked toward it slowly… and opened it.
Inside, he found something unexpected:
The Outerverse Void Key.
Left behind by Adonai.
Aethion’s eyes widened.
> “Why… did you leave this for me, Father?”
---
That night, Aethion stood at the edge of existence.
With a single breath, he used the key.
The Void opened.
He stepped into the Outerverse Void, curious… cautious… driven by questions.
He wandered deeper into the shapeless realm—until something caught his eye:
A small, white, glowing speck floating in the void.
He moved toward it, slowly.
> “What… is this?”
He reached out… and placed his hand upon it.
Suddenly—everything changed.
Visions flooded his mind.
The past unraveled before him.
He saw it all:
— Adonai’s beginning.
— How the Omniverse was born.
— The price paid to create him… Aethion.
Aethion whispered, voice trembling:
> “You… used your entire power… Just to create me. And that’s the day you began to die.”
He fell silent. Tears welled up again.
> “If only I had known. If I had realized sooner… I would’ve stopped you. I wouldn’t have let you fade away like that.”
He closed his eyes tightly.
> “I… I thought you were selfish, Dad. But every day you spent with me, you were dying a little more—just to stay by my side. And I… I didn’t even understand…”
Aethion, overwhelmed by the truth, fell to his knees—crying deeply.
> “It was all because of me… My father died… because he gave everything to create me…”
Tears streamed down his face, echoing across the silent Void.
> “I have to bring him back… I have to find a way to save him…”

The Glowing Book
Suddenly, he returned to the Omniverse, mind heavy with grief.
There, some gods stepped forward and presented him with a glowing book.
One of them said:
> “Adonai told us… If Aethion ever returns from the Outerverse Void, give this to him.”
Aethion took the book.
Its cover shimmered with cosmic runes.
He opened it slowly…
Inside were details about the Omniverse, wisdom from Adonai—
But on the last page, written in his father’s own handwriting:
> “If you're reading this… I’m probably no longer by your side. But don’t worry, my son. I’m only resting. I live forever in your heart. I haven’t died—I’ve simply moved to the afterlife. Don’t search for me, Aethion. I’m happy there. Don’t worry about me, my son. You are the king of everything. Darkness can never defeat you—even when you think you've lost. Goodbye, Aethion… I will never forget you.”
Aethion clutched the book to his chest and wept.
> “I’ll never forget you either, Dad… You were my everything… And this Omniverse… will never forget you either. I promise—while I exist, no one will ever harm this creation again.”
All the gods slowly gathered around him, placing their hands gently on his shoulders.
His tears became a sacred vow—
Aethion, protector of all realities, swore that the light of his father would live on through him forever.

The Outerverse Void Key
Aethion gently picked up the key and held it tightly in his hand.
He whispered with deep emotion:
> “I will never lose this key… or your hope, Dad.”
His voice was soft, but his heart was heavy.
The Outerverse Void Key glowed faintly—a silent reminder of Adonai’s legacy.
Days passed.
Aethion spent time learning about the Outerverse Void using the key left behind.
And then… truths began to reveal themselves.
He discovered something terrifying:
> The evil beings he had defeated earlier… They were only a few among many. Just like the ones Adonai had once fought and destroyed, there were countless other evil beings still alive—hidden inside their own private domains deep within the Outerverse Void.
> Invisible. Undetectable. Unreachable by any god.
But Aethion sensed their presence.
He realized:
> “They’re out there. Hidden in domains beyond everything. But why? Why are they here? What brought them to this place? And what are they planning?”
Those answers remained a mystery.

Aethion’s Hidden Memories
One more important thing:
Because Aethion had already defeated Varkur’Thal, he unknowingly inherited Varkur’Thal’s domain.
It became his now—a part of him.
Even though Aethion possessed the power to protect every alternate Omniverse and infinite realities… he remained humble, bound by one truth:
His father’s oath.
Adonai had sworn to use power only with purpose—to never lose himself to rage or dominance.
And Aethion now carried that same promise within him.
(When someone says, “a small, white, glowing thing,” it’s actually Aethion’s unconscious memory. Back when he was just a baby, he couldn’t store those memories within himself—because at that time, as a child, his core essence wasn’t yet capable of saving them. And so, those memories left him, turning into pure energy, and began to glow faintly white within the Outerverse Void domain where he was born.
Adonai, upon seeing this, thought:
> “This must somehow be destroyed.”
Because he feared that one day, if Aethion saw his past memories, he might fall into sorrow.
Adonai tried to destroy it, but he couldn’t. At that time, he had just created Aethion, and because of that, Adonai was already weak.
So he didn’t have the strength to destroy the memory-energy.
Instead, he used his remaining power to conceal it—to hide it completely.
But even though he hid it... Adonai knew deep inside:
> “No matter what, someday after I’m gone, my son will definitely uncover all of this.”
And so, on the last page of his book, he wrote those very words.
Later, because Aethion had become a god, everything that happened during his childhood—even the hidden memories—were eventually revealed to him.)

A New Threat
Weeks passed…
Aethion now ruled the Omniverse. Peace returned.
But still… deep within, Aethion felt something—a strange shift… an unknown alert.
Suddenly, the skies above shimmered. A tear opened between dimensions.
From that void, a mysterious Outerverse being appeared—calm, powerful, and unfamiliar.
With a deep, resonant voice, the being spoke:
> “Aethion… we need to speak.”
(Name Reveal: Velthurion)
