1 Reincarnated? Sorta...

Dyrstan was confused when he first came to but now he was just in awe. Drystan was formerly a genius art student that was painting a portrait for a well-known politician when he got caught up in an assassination attempt.

Well... he shouldn't really call it an attempt as they sure as hell succeeded. When they first made their appearance and he heard the gunshots he immediately felt overwhelming terror, but when they show up and he saw how efficiently they took care of everyone, even while feeling fear and panic, he had this strange and overwhelming admiration for them. Even as he bled out and lost consciousness, he thought that if he had the opportunity to live again, he would also be an assassin, the best assassin.

Then he woke up. Drystan found himself alone on a pathway with trees on both sides standing in front of the most magnificent palace he had ever seen. Tall, full of spires and towers that went up past the clouds and was he so long couldn't even see where its ended on both sides as it seemed to go on endlessly. As he was standing there in front of the marvel he suddenly felt a feeling of embrace started levitating and floating towards the castle. The closer he got the more the sheer size of the structure amazed him, but the real wonder was when he entered the gates. When he got through the gates he appeared directly in what was clearly the throne room. Every single object in the room appeared to be made out of suns and stars. On the throne however, stood the being that caused his awe. A being that could only be described as the living embodiment of the universe stood. His existence seemed to demand worship and reverence making Drystan bow and kneel to it as everything else seemingly small and worthless in comparison to its majesty.

Drystan waited for what seemed to be eternity waiting for the entity to speak to him, but it never did, and Drystan never even considered speaking first as he instinctively knew he wouldn't be able to muster up the words in his presence. But eventually, even though he wasn't spoken to he suddenly seemed to know what the being wanted to convey to him. As soon as the knowledge of what he needed to know appeared in his head he instantly appeared in an empty room where he was able to take his time to think and make his decisions.

The decisions being what he was going to have or be able to do in his next life. The being for reasons unknown to him decided to grant him a new life in a new world. He was also allowed to make a few requests, or wishes if you would like to call them that, aside from the world he went to as it would take too much time for the powerful entity to sift through the endless worlds and universes to put him in a specific one.

Drystan sat there for hours contemplating about the requests he was going to make before he remembered his untimely death and the aspirations that came with it. In the end he had finally decided on what he was going to ask for and made his request.

"I wou- !" he said before vanishing.
