She nods, turning back to him.

"Then I would suggest you inform your people that I shall be relocating them momentarily."

The Goddess vanishes once more, reappearing hovering over the central point of the city of the crows, head turned up toward the sky. She is still for some time, waiting for Corvus to inform her that he has told his people of her actions, before making a gesture. The moon would be shrouded in a glowing, silver mist, and then vanish entirely, moving to the orbit of a habitable world near the edge of the Galaxy nearest the Ring.

Fatianna relocates the Corvid Moon from Dispair to an unnamed habitable planet on the edge of the Galaxy nearest the Ring. [1 Major Act]

Vanida lowered her cheek on Volondor's shoulder. She was so calm, so happy, her natural reddish color slowly recovered as she was overfilled with love and a bit of Aodun's power. Even Feros words didn't disappoint happy goddess " My love, I think Feros can be a good ally.  He is young, rebellious  and passionate, He'll never accept any authority or rules above him, he will make mistakes similar to the ones I made but he cares about the planet, I see it. We should include him into our pantheon and explain our worshipers that wilds may be dangerous, may be an enemy, but wilds are not evil and should be respected not hated"

He smiled as he heard her words.

"I think thats a very prudent and wise solution. I will teach our people of all other gods and put them in the hierarchy as its fitting, be it our allies or neutrals or antagonists. Lets hope we can mark as many as possible as our allies or neutrals."

Death in flames, heat and pain beyond measure.  Deafened by the explosions surrounding him and blinded by lights so horribly intense that they burned away his very eyes.  Traurig felt himself slip away as he drifted into darkness and silence.  A final reprieve from a tiring slave life filled with his own short comings and failures.  It was the end for him.  He desired no afterlife for he was tired and could not bear the thought of existence any longer.  Corvus called out to his soul but so did the void.  He thought of how he had failed to impact the world.  How he had in no way left his mark upon it.  The friends and allies he had failed, so many now dead.  What had he done to deserve life when others had been deprived of it while he stood by idly.  The pull of the void was tremendous and despite the increasingly faint calls of his friend Corvus, Traurig no longer possessed the strength to hold on and he was swept away by the currents of time and strange powers from a time immemorial.  His soul faded away but in the grand cycle, nothing is wasted and his energy became something new in the darkness.

From out of the void emerges something new.  Not a singular entity as one might expect but instead a swarm of something...  Like a raging sandstorm through a desert, a mass of beings breaks through the tear.  Although they are many they are also one.  One mind and one drive of unknown purpose.

The Catalyst Swarm emerges from the void and begins heading towards the planet Despair.

Minor Act (I think): Once there delve deep into the ocean and form a Catalyst Hive (tower like structure for catalysts to dwell and reproduce) the hive will be a living organism in the shape of a tower made up of catalysts and with empty compartments inside like rooms.

Vanida kissed Volondor in his cheek, with a soft gentle kiss she wasn't capable before. That kiss had much more love than lust in it
"I desire you so much. I want to be taken by you just here and now  Goddess of Lust exhaled, like another Armageddon happened somewhere " But we can't. You are wounded and need to rest and not spend yourself on exhaustive passions. I need to stay fit  and can't allow myself to get pregnant until you'll recover enough to protect your family with all your might. And most importantly we must make a better world for our child, first. But, my Love, I want to hold a ceremony and announce our marriage  to mortals as soon as possible

Corvus heard Volondor's words.

"So, he thinks he can make a feudal system, with himself as king.

At least this time I do not-


His eyes were drawn to the Swarm. A great many presences.

'...what is-are those?"

She tilts her head, watching it as it moves toward the planet they had just recently vacated. "It appears to be a swarm."

She nods. "Nor can I, which confuses me to a point... One of us should surely know the answer, though their name suggests they facilitate some sort of change. Hopefully for the better."

"Hopefully.... I cannot sense Traurig now...

It seems I failed to bring him back from the void...."


The weight of years balanced on that sentence. The world-weariness of Corvus could be heard  easily. It was only now that the burden was made bigger by the apparent cowardice and bastardry of himself.


Of course, he quickly shook it away. His curiosity conquered his sense of failure.

"In that case, we have a planet to survey."

She turns to face the world, looking down at it, expressionless.

"If I might make a suggestion... shall we name it Solitude?"

She continues to look down at the beautiful sphere below her, all blues and greens, nothing like the blighted wasteland that had become of the first Planet, unsullied, unspoiled. Beautiful.

"Indeed. Although, are we sure it is devoid of life?"
