Will of chaos

I noticed the changes happening in my Divine Realm and when her eyes opened I realized that her Consciousness was not there.

“This is strange, I wasn’t supposed to take this path…” (me)

I could feel that Urd’s presence was no longer just that of a God, it also contained only traces of the power of the Law when it no longer even seemed like an Ascendant Aura.

Her Aura had already reached a dangerous level for me, little by little I could feel other paths branching off to this new Stellar Path.

The shape of the common Stellar Paths are all crystal paths, those with Divine power or linked to me usually have more personalized paths such as being able to have forests, oceans, illusions and even containing entire Worlds within them like Lena’s Path of Rebirth.

What I learned from this was that the shape of the Paths also have an illustrative purpose for what they are, so when I realized that her path was the staircase, I couldn’t help but be surprised.

“I’ll find out what’s going on myself…” (me)

“< Divine Invocation: Gates of the Star Path >” (me)

The space beside me begins to spin in layers until everything disappears, leaving a cascade of blood wherever it goes.

With the first step, I was already on the other side. My Divinity and the power of the Law cannot be contained within the Divine Realm. This is a place of maximums where the Will leads us to improve. To contain ourselves in this place is to stagnate or be expelled.

The 5 pairs of wings open and I realize that the 11th wing is now larger, being half the size of the other wings. I also feel this wing growing larger since I entered here.

“Is this because of her?” (me)

With this doubt, I just thought about where I wanted to go and was already looking at that crystal staircase from above. The vision of those seeing from the outside will always be distorted in an endless path, but for those who walk the path, the end may be in one step or truly endless.

Taking a step onto the staircase that became this path, I instantly reach the highest part, above the staircase and facing the large tree where a shadowy figure was holding a book with red pages.

Looking around I could understand more than just the superficial view could comprehend, I could see roots that must be from this tree coming out of the ground as they wrapped around the marble throne and the speech platform, I also understand the symbolism of these two objects.

The throne itself means governance, this was the easiest to know, I can feel a presence of tyranny and arrogance more similar to what the Ascendants have in their Auras.

The platform was strange, its purpose on any occasion is to be in front of other people, whether for someone telling a story, for someone giving a speech or for someone judging something in a court, its uses are varied and even so it is always to be in front of a group speaking, it should be an object like the throne emanating authority, pride, judgment or even confidence.

What I feel from this platform is something different, I feel feelings like love, a pure and gentle love as well as a simple desire to save, it is an object to guide crowds through the intricacies of stories, laws and beliefs, a tool that seems to fit with what Urd said she wanted to achieve.

“(The throne must be a representation of the power of the Law that seeks to control and dominate everything, it is no surprise that it is here, I expected something like that or even a crown.)” (me)

“(The platform itself was unexpected, but I knew that if she was telling the truth about remedying the Ascendants, her emotions and desires would materialize something for her, I could not guess what it would be and even so I would not expect a platform.)” (me)

I understand these two items, the simple fact that the platform exists already says that the Ascendant Goddess did not lie to me, she truly seeks to guide the Ascendants in redemption, she wants to save them, all these feelings and desires are contained there.

What I didn’t expect was that just like the throne, there were roots emerging from the ground to surround the platform, in fact in a few minutes I saw both the throne and the platform fade as if years had passed.

I look at the tree once more, the tree seems bigger, its leaves are more vibrant, the Runes of Law are clearer, the branches are thicker and the presence of the tree seems to be changing.

“(When I first came here the tree emitted a pure and innocent presence similar… similar to curiosity…)” (me)

“(But now it seems to be changing into something more, I feel traces of the emotions that existed on the platform and the tyranny I felt on the throne, but they are not being mixed… they are being… swallowed up.)” (me)

The tree was nourishing itself from the other two objects, of course these are not real objects, they are just representations of what Urd seeks to achieve, how she wishes to guide those who walk her path.

Whether guiding them with an iron fist on a path under his absolute control or guiding them with care and love so that they walk on their own on a correct path, but the tree, what curiosity has to do with all this is a mystery to me, I also do not understand what it will become when this tree finishes absorbing the other two objects.

“(Looking closer, these things on the sides looked like swings before, but now the ropes have become chains and the accents have gotten bigger and become circular.)” (me)

“(The whole tree looks like a scale…)” (me)

In my mind the image of the Egyptian scales of judgment and the scales of the Law used in the statues of the law near the courts in my ancient life arises, a scale serves to measure, judge and thus proclaim something from it.

A scale is not only used for this, but also used by merchants for fair exchange in ancient times, there was even a constellation that they named Libra.

“(The shadowy figure is also changing, it is becoming larger and more distinct… A Rune is also forming on its forehead, the golden Rune of Law…)” (me)

It was interesting to see, it didn’t seem like Urd was making the tree devour the other two objects, in fact she probably doesn’t even understand what all these things here are, the trance state for those on the Stellar Path only allows Will to take place, whether that will is guided by emotion, reason or ideal doesn’t matter.

But if she doesn’t control the tree, then the tree itself did it on its own, but that wouldn’t be possible either, the tree was just a materialization of what she sought, of the aspect that her path would follow, it has no real power or authority.

“(So if it’s not Urd doing this and not the tree… there’s only one option left.)” (me)

“(The Book…)” (me)

Suddenly an idea comes to mind, the book I created for Urd alone wouldn’t have the power for this kind of interference in her, it was supposed to be a complement to her as well as a guarantee of connection between us, that’s why it didn’t allow it to become a Divine Weapon, but as something created and nurtured within my body with the materials of my own body, the power of Chaos is present in the book and is reacting with the heart I granted from my own chest to her.

“(The power of Chaos is based on transformation, the Star Path itself is a basis of transformation with each path being a transformation through the Will of each individual.)” (me)

“(The book is using the Law on the throne and the Divinity on the dais to nurture something else… is it responding to her Will in a way as well as a part… of my Will…?)” (me)

These realizations were coming one after another as I connected the dots of everything I had seen so far as I analyzed the changes already happening before me, the Star Path is my Divine Realm and in this place nothing can hide from my scrutiny, I can see the profound transformations happening, the movement of energy, the amount of Will and the qualities that are born from this path.

Ding!

“(Your mind has returned… finally.)” (me)

I didn’t say anything the whole time as I realized that Urd’s mind was completely lost in the trance just as her body had just been created, the next step has already begun, harmony of body, mind and Soul.

“(Now I can talk to her.)” (me)

“Enjoying your reading?” (me)

“…” (Urd)

Without wasting time I spoke out loud looking at her sitting on the tree branch and searching its trunk, she had one leg dangling off the branch while the other was bent serving as support for her arm that holds the book she is reading with pleasure.

When I spoke it was as if she woke up from her trance, she looked at me as if she didn’t believe I was there then as if she had remembered something, she looked in the direction of the stairs behind me before focusing back on me, a glow of realization returning to her face.

“Zenos…” (Urd)
