1 Prologue

Tremors sounded throughout the dimensional barrier, signalling disturbances within the solar system: planet orbits shifted, stars dimmed as black holes shrunk. With a shattering boom, the dimensional wall shattered, atomic particles dispersed to the far-parts of the galaxy as a metallic oval-shaped object emerged. The metallic oval continued through the tear within space and time, plummeting to a multi-coloured solar system covered in elemental colours. The dimensional tear rapidly began to fix as the laws of time and space worked to remedy this abnormal entry. However, just when things seemed normal, abyss-like hands clutched the entrance of the dimensional tear. A fiend-like creature released its immense royal essence, enabling a leg through.

Tykos grunted this feeble dimension was arrogant enough to attempt to stop its entry, humph he would show no mercy. Using his royal essence, he unlocked his second seal, rendering the laws of space and time useless. His armoured figure soon entered the low-level dimension; red eyes tinged with gold surveyed the primitive life forms within the Gamma Level Universe. As he locked onto the oval-shaped metallic object, a sinister grin rose on his face. He would annihilate this seed, bringing an end to the insect-like human race. Thus, removing any threat to his lord would finally be eliminated. He grinned viciously as his essence overflowed, creating an antimatter beam that shot towards the oval-shaped object. His eyes gleamed with delight as he imagined Lord Nexa's beautiful face rewarding him for completing the mission. Smirking, he spoke aloud: "feeble human race, your sacrifice was in vain, I will destroy your last hope!" with a satisfied expression, he watched his attack eviscerate the oval object into oblivion. With contempt, he turned and left, closing the dimensional tear.

The gamma universe returned to its original state after the turbulent events. The four aura masked entities finally revealed themselves, coughing out dark red blood as their complexions became pale. "Damned Imperial Abyss Race! That prince's power nearly finished us," cried Celestial Ember whilst the other three celestial beings nodded grimly. It was common knowledge that the Imperial Abyss Race was an Alpha Level Universe entity. The Celestials were lucky that demon who came only used minimal power, or they would have no longer existed. Breathing deeply, Celestial Tempest asked, "Why did we save that peculiar object using our combined illusion technique?" Celestial Clarity also raised her eyebrows in a questioning manner. As the three celestials pondered, Celestial Nature finally opened her lips, "the human race... they saved us while we ran from our enemies, and we merely repaid the favour now, what happens next is down to the seed."

The three other celestials nodded as they acknowledged that this was indeed correct. What they did was appropriate. However, the costs were not minimal. They would need to spend the next 500 years restoring their essence to regain their strength to use that ability again. Celestial Ember once again looked at his companions. With a heavy sigh, he said, "I hope we made the right choice, otherwise when they find out, we are dead." All four firmly nodded to each other and solemnly entered their mediation chamber at each of the four points within the Gamma Level Universe; they submerged into slumber.

The metallic shaped oval continued to plummet towards the elemental solar system, finally locating a suitable home. It veered off, entering the stratosphere of a blue-green planet. Outer shell burning, it finally entered the protective barrier. The masters who governed the planet's domain remained unaware. Shrouded in a stealth veil: the oval object crashed into the side of a valley rapidly, tumbling down, knocking loose rock on the cliff face. Scraping metal sounded across the valley as the metallic object finally came to a stop next to a dirt mound. Electric signals blared inside the metallic oval as the interface activated. "Status: safe, the planet seems to be habitable, atmospheric values: 70% nitrogen, 10% carbon dioxide and 20% oxygen with the density of spiritual essence at 90%." Calculations appeared upon the holographic screen of the oval as the interface worked. The voice then became jolly, "Master is developing well! Adjustments made, the body will become more compatible with the environment. Nutritional fluid for cryostasis is sufficient to allow the minimum standard of development, estimating completion time…" The interface's AI system went into overdrive, as mathematical calculations were computed, at the speed of light. With an abrupt silence, the voice sounded once more: "Cryostasis chamber will run out of power within 16 years due to heavy external damages, activating integration procedure early-memories will be lost."

A blue light flashed as the interface integrated into the forehead of the organism. The organism incubated within a gelatine substance twitched as a faint scar appeared on its eyebrow. The oval-shaped structure used its final function to metamorphose into the dirt mound, camouflaging it. The plants grew, the rivers flowed, and the countdown for 16 years began.
