A Long Path to Discovery

As the population of Rome reacted to Flamma's unusual triumph, Daniel's mind was busy elsewhere. On a platform of solidified space he lay on his back while observing the world with his watchful senses. His gaze, however, was aimed at the starry sky.

In the stars' slow motion Daniel found comfort, as space was the one thing that his place of origin and this universe had in common. In his heart, no feeling was more prevalent than the desire to go back to the people he had left behind, yet, in his mind, he knew he couldn't.

His powers as an aspect of Karma, still weak and uncontrollable, made him a menace to the other domains, to a point where his true nature was likely to be the one thing that could unite the multiverse against a common enemy even more than his peers, the other champions of Destiny. This pressure, he knew his friends and family could not share with him.
