1 Before death came life

Earth 2021, a man in his deathbed, breaths through a ventilator as he feels his own life dwindle

(wife) " Josiah please stay with me, please… Please don't go."

Ah, what is she saying stay with you, am I not already with you, always never making sense?

As he blinks once he briefly scans around the room seemed to be filled with people, his wife whom he had complicated feelings for, his daughter who was in her thirty's, and a son who has a family of his own. He looked at them with a complicated expression as he wondered if he did anything right

(Josiah) " I'm sorry"

Confused and filled with dread, Mary walked up to her father wondering what he meant by that but still progressed further clasping his hand trying to cement how the heat on his hand felt.

(Mary) " I love you after all these years as you first taught me the alphabet to you playing sports with me and caring for me…

Time which seemed to have painstakingly slowed down her throat felt like someone just put a stone inside forcing her words as if she doesn't want to accept reality.

(Mary) " I will miss you, we all will, dad.

Ah is this what death feels like, how bizarre, my life, was it something I wanted, I feel like I should be something better, something grander, and yet here I am dying with nothing to cement my name just going to be a nobody at the end of it.

Tell me is it going to be like this… I don't want it to end. I want to live a life with no regrets at the end of it or at the very least try with everything I can.

Feeling his life ending as his sense dull his desire and his will spurred something in him. That "something" was growing rapidly as it was like a new organ, what is known as soul took his memory and held his conscious as his body started to slow down his soul seemed to have been getting ready to lift off

The soul that somehow was born. traveling through the broad space who knew how long it was taking, traveling uniquely as it leaves the milky galaxy. Suddenly hit something that shouldn't have been there, something that was a reality and a concept. A contradiction: The "Void".

Ripping the old man's souls' layer little by little as it continued to fly threatening to wipe it out just as it was first born but for some reason, it didn't… why? Nobody could find an answer, but then suddenly it passed the storm, still not knowing what it was doing.

A world will be something that most worlds and stars have. everything has a soul even the plants and inanimate objects like metal. A world like that example far bigger than the earth, took notice of this curious thing as it started attracting the soul.

It is noted that for a body to work it needs a soul and for that to happen the soul needs to find a suitable vessel, which is normally what you were born with but as you can see the body of the dragged soul has already died it loses connections with it. So, the world will try to find a suitable host for it. It took ages as it might never find another one like its old body. The world will understand that but after a while, it found a pregnant, true beast inside a couple of fetuses where they just started growing.

One of the yet born true beasts started resonating with the soul as if it were always there although it should already have a soul, it didn't have one it was soon going to die without much effort. as the "world will" was contemplating that information the soul broke out its cages as it rushed to the uninhabited body, not even the world will be quick enough to stop it as it was already gone, there as it started to shrink and condense into a small ball, big enough to seem like a marble ball from a distance. It then floated into the fetus as it merged with the fetus, the body shook as if it was in the cold but after a few seconds, the fetus slowly stopped, so for the first time in history a unique true beast was born.

How will his story affect the world?
