The Respawner

A man left with nothing claws his way through the very bottom of society. One day, he makes a chilling discovery: even death has abandoned him. Aldric somehow defies the inevitable, experiencing each demise as a cruel reenactment of his failures. But now, with the power to alter the past, he gains the ability to author a future worthy of a power hungry destitute like himself. Armed with a soul-hungry blade and the ability to cheat fate, he enters the Expanse—a realm where countless worlds collide, and men and gods struggle for dominion. [ The universe will continue on, again, and again, and again. And still, you will remain. Expelled from the principles of causality, yet, a silent orchestrator of it. ] [You are the Firsts' Great and Terrible Blade, and reality itself will crack at the weight of your failures.]

The sixth and final

Even after dark, Lerai knew he could be out a couple of seconds before the night creatures arrived. That's how he waited until after dark before entering Aldric's cave on their first meeting. However, he didn't know exactly how many seconds he had, and he had gone way past the previous mark.

Then, with a last stride, Lerai reached the entrance, tossing Aldric into it with fatigued arms.

"Ahhhh!"

The screams of Lerai jerked Aldric back into consciousness, and he immediately scurried his way deeper into the shelter. However, the screams of Lerai still pierced the darkness as Aldric heared him struggle with something he couldn't see.

"Help!"

These were the last words Lerai screamed before his voice disappeared into the darkness.
