61

I leave them to do as they please, this is their universe and I can always test my ideas on a dead one, we have powerful gods and a god race in mine now, but I want to see if they are able to do it by themselves.

I have an idea for Koriand'r, Venus, she is able to absorb massive amounts of various radiations.

If we move Venus so it is between the orbit of Mars and Earth making it more liveable, all the gas and radiation would need to be taken care of.

The gas I can easily convert, the radiation would be like a meal to her, I am not aware of many others who could not only absorb it from the planet but all the life as well. That is if she is willing.

I have gone over the details with Lilly and she thinks it is a viable idea.

I see no reason to make Earth the focus of anything, it just so happens to be a decent guide for the band of life.

One other test then, I set up a portal plant in the house, since it is well hidden and can be locked down it's as good as any other place.

I glance over the world, it is a much more tame version of the DC my other self lives in so I am tempted to find more people here are they would be less jaded, but also it seems less powerful. If it was not for the fact Koriand'r has vanished in his world I would be tempted to help this one find the Titans, but it seems something happened and she is never seen or heard from in other worlds, so let's not push my luck.

"Did you want to leave with me," I ask after the portal plant is set up, creating a firm connection with both myself and Gia I noticed? Strange, Gia and I are connected more closely than anyone else as she is my domain (Decided to use Domain as his "holy land" and Realm as the area he is responsible for, currently the solar system)

The moment she was stable I started to sense a lot more about this solar system, not as in-depth as the main one, but more than was possible before.

'Gia, place a portal in each universe I have been to, do it on Venus. Oh, on the one that has that horrible future lock it from the other side totally, I am worried about magical or germ contamination.'

'Very well my Lord, Lord please be aware that I gained more strength when the portal you made linked, and with the one I just placed it has happened again.'

Hm, I am too strong to notice the slight increases in power, but that is very interesting to note, I am assuming it is because each universe contains awakened, but this is a massive bug then, since there are many universes out there, and if I get strong enough I might not need plant portals to move to them.

'My Lord, Lady Ion said to let you know another portal has opened up and its vibrational frequency is not too far off our own.'

'Hm, in that case, lay a portal in the one as well, please. I guess I can leave them to see how they turn out.'

Although this seemed to be a long conversation, it was held in less time than it took Koriand'r to make up her mind.

"Am I able to return? Once I am strong enough I will take revenge on my sister," she says with conviction

I indicated to the portal, "There is another one on the other side you can use to return. And there is a project I am considering on the other side that will help you get a lot stronger."

"Very well then." She smiles warmly and leans in close, "We can be together a lot longer now."

"You will literally be on another planet while I explore another universe, so maybe later." I grin, to be honest, she is starting to grow on me with her honest affection.

I walk through the portal with her following close.

"Welcome to my main Universe, Ion, the Goddess of knowledge and technology should contact you soon, she is very excited about your ability and how it might help with terraforming. Also, when you are sure you are comfortable and want to remain with us I will offer you a position in my pantheon."

While looking about she nods, the entire domain is either all-natural or tech well woven with nature giving it the feel of a paradise.

"It feels so alive, so vibrant."

A gently rustling speaks, "I am alive, and thanks to Lord Paragon I am not only vibrant but constantly gaining more life energy."

"That was Gia, she is both my Holy Domain and its protector. All you see, even the nature that is intertwined with machines is her or her vines. Gia is an amazing living mutant island when I found her, she agreed to my offer and now we are basically one." I introduce Gia with a warm smile.

I know Koriand'r is not only happy that the domain is nature-based, as so was her planet, but much more at ease it seems. I assume knowing she is truly away from the past might be the reason.

"You can choose to take a room in my home, or ask Gia to make a home for you, I am fine with either. I must admit I have no idea how long I will be in the other universe though."

As I speak I take a moment to send my senses all over my domain, I am amazed at the progress my race has made, there seem to be no unchanged mutants or Inhumans anymore. Most of them are finding positions where their perfectly working powers are needed, naturally, some have their own paths regardless of where they would be best suited, but that is part of giving them the illusion of free will. 

Charles and Eric have put the mutant Elixir forward as a suggestion for the God of Healing and medicine I see no reason why not, but ask them to watch him carefully for a time, and then we will decide.

I focus back on Koriand'r and find her chatting with Gia, so I move before the new portal that Gia constructed a portal in, it takes me only a moment to realize this is the one Steve came from, no mutants, the only hero known to the public is Cap who "died" but also Marvel who is known to Fury.

I message Steve and Peggy "Steve, Peggy. I think I found Steve's universe, but it has only just turned 2010. Do you want to come with?."

Steve responds right away, "No, I have my Peggy." a moment later Peggy responds, "Not so fast, are you going just to see, or to change things?"

"There are enough universes where my people suffer, I will do what I can to correct things," I reply.

There are a few moments of silence when I assume they are talking, then Peggy speaks up, "We going with, give us a few minutes to put things in place while we are gone."
