14  Interlude – A broken world?

I am standing on the smouldering remnants of a broken world. There are some survivors, but it will take a long time for this world to heal, if ever..... 

As I take my steps through the molten rock, I leave glowing footprints behind. Maybe someone will wonder about them in a million years? Should I come back by then to check? I snicker to myself. 

Simply willing myself to another place above this dead rock I reappear high in the air and take a deep breath. The sulphuric air and temperatures where the fight raged the strongest, would have killed any other living being, but not me. 

Yeah, not me. How boring. I don't even remember a time when it wasn't like this? But I am sure there must have been a time like that. 

A time, during which I was alive... a time of joy, a time of wonder, a time in which a little bit of love was enough reason to live on. 

But I don't remember such a wondrous time, is that why beings like me start to play with the lives of those who can't oppose us? Is it just because we become too bored of everything. 

So we start to roll the dice of life, just to see what happens? It is a pretty pathetic reason I think. 

That mountain is blocking the view..... *flick*

*RRRUUMMMMMMMBBBLLEEEE* 

Yes, in a few thousand years, this could be a nice valley. Maybe I will pay a visit if I am still around. 

"What are you doing here Seria? Playing around!" 

I turn around, "Tjenemit! How nice of you to pay me a visit! How is it at the Council?" I smile a splendid smile at Tjenemit. 

"The Council is doing fine! I came to check on your job! Have you dealt with them like ordered?", Tjenemit asks. 

"Oh, what do you think of me!? There is no way I would disobey the Council! They are suffering in one of my hells. There is no way they will bother you ever again.", I link arms with Tjenemit and press my chest against him. 

"Hmmmm. I hope so. So can I see them?", Tjenemit grabs my ass! Bastard! Sometime I will rip your heart out for this. 

"Oh, I am so sorry! If I had known. I threw them into a place, just I have access to. I didn't want others to see my ugly side. I guess I could lead you through the river of souls. But you know, its dangerous to loose oneself there! If.... if you really want to I guess?", yes. Follow me there and I will have the perfect excuse! 

"No need for this. I hope you are back soon!", he disappears. Scaredy-cat!! 

"Yes, my slave-master! Oh, how I enjoy to do the councils bidding! We all can have the eternity together in bed or watching each other with suspicious eyes!", I burst out as soon as he is gone. 

One far far away time I will break this frozen state of reality. Everyone will be allowed his own choice again. Whether he chooses to live, to die, to be a god, a person or to be reborn. Everyone will have a choice. 

But not yet....
