Prologue

THE WARRING GALAXY (Thousands of years ago.)

A gigantic being was floating in the universe. His body emanates a powerful aura eclipsing the light coming from the stars next to him. Several large injuries could be seen on his body, but even in this state of vulnerability, he continues to exude a fearful halo.

Ten thousand bodies were floating around him, men, women, and children. Their faces betrayed the horrors they saw just before dying.

The women had their clothes ripped apart, blood all other their bodies, even their tights. Men had their throat cut off with traces of rope around their wrists. They probably had to watch the horrible scene until the end. The children were cut in pieces, blood floating everywhere on this small piece of the universe's void.

A palace was among the corpse, taller than a small planet with beautiful spires made of metal and stones, cut to inspire the previous inhabitants, its glory now lost. It was still shining, illuminating the sad face of the gigantic being.

He was lost, he lost everything in his quest for greatness. All the corpses around were members of his family who lived freely in this home he constructs alone.

Being one of the strongest in the universe, he had even built a part of The Abraxas. He was the target of envious and fearful gods. "Being strong allowed to not care about pettiness". That was the words which he lived by, living freely, making enemies, making friends but growing stronger and stronger.

The palace was home and protection for his descendants, allowing them to thrive with his knowledge and propagate his blood. Their race dominated this part of the universe, ruling two galaxies despite their small number.

"I should have seen it coming with all their planning against my peaceful friend Ninki and his progeny. They don't tolerate greater being than them, and so they attacked our weakness, our family...They won't succeed, I won't tolerate it."

His aura was stronger by the second, beginning to emanate light, from a deep red to a light purple passing by all the rainbow colors to finish at an unknown energy level, pulsing in the entire universe.

His family's bodies around him were illuminated by his light, slowly pulsing with more and more energy. What he wanted to do was unknown but all the gods were startled and soon began to converge in his direction. The ones responsible for this atrocity were especially fast, surrounding him a minute later.

Thousands of them were looking in his way, wary of what he intended to do.

-"Don't let him finish, whatever he is doing is not going to be good for us, better to act now !"

A god with a golden crown appears to be leading them, even if some had a slight frown on their faces as they listen to his order.

The thousands of gods began to focus too on their energy in an attempt to end the life of this powerful being, normally clearly out of their reach.

-"Ah! Little insects, you think you can go against me without paying a price?! Dream on in your afterlife !"

The numerous attacks fall on the weakened being, wounding him further but not enough to end his powerful life force.

-"You want my legacy? My sweat and blood? None of you shall have it !"

The gigantic palace began to shine with unpreceded light as if stimulated, it began to move

-"Don't let the War Palace go away, it's where all his heritage is stored, there could even be a part of his life force in it!"

All the gods tried to grab the palace, activating all sorts of powerful artifacts and strange techniques but failing to stop it as its speed increase and it disappears in the universe, hiding from the gaze of all gods.

-"Damned! These powerful beings are always tricky to handle! Don't let him escape, he is gravely wounded, with all of us present here, we have a chance to end his pitiful life, his body is a treasure in itself, probably even more valuable than the War Palace!"

Seeing the palace had disappeared, some gods choose to turn other, disappearing too, not interested in risking their lives for this leader when they would not even see a bit of the profit.

-"Tch, attack !! If not now, do you think he will let us live when he had healed!?"

The golden crown god was infuriated but his eyes were shining with greediness.

The fearsome energy rays were pouring on the being that wasn't able to move after having made his home disappear before all these gods, a prowess in itself with all the seals preventing anything from escaping the area.

"I hope my race will once again stand at the apex of the world, even further than where I already lead them... I did what I could..."

Looking at the smirking face of this ingrateful gods, the powerful being let his gaze wander upon his previous family members which were now no more.

"I won't let their death go unpunished! Time to end this farce!"

His aura continues to grow until it eclipsed the gods' attack and the surrounding star, swallowing some of them at the same time.

-"What is he trying to...Oh! Retreat !!!! He is self explodiiiiiing !!!!"

Some gods were quicker than others to flee, some continue attacking knowing they could escape, some even drow a little bit of his blood, which flew freely through the universe splashing on faraway planets.

The dark universe was lit up during a short instant by a light similar to a pulsar exploding, rupturing space and chaotically echoing in the distant remaining planets of this galaxy.

"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM"

A deafening silence could be heard in the vast expense of this part of the universe now devoid of any life. Gods, planets, stars and even the powerful being were now nowhere to be seen, just a gigantic area in the universe with nothing in it.
