Chapter 2: The World Reborn:

Milton stood alone in the vastness of the universe. With a thought, he could see every star, every planet, every living creature that had ever existed. He could hear the prayers of mortals, feel the weight of their desires, their fears. It was overwhelming.

But as the gods' powers settled within him, Milton felt a strange clarity. He had written about the nature of power, about the temptation and fall of even the most righteous beings. Now, that same power was his to command.

 He raised his hand, and with a single gesture, created a new world. The skies formed above, the land below, oceans filled with water as mountains rose from the depths. He had become the very force of creation, the embodiment of every divine will that had ever existed.

But even as he shaped this new world, a question gnawed at him: Was this power a gift or a curse?

 From here, each chapter could dive deeper into Milton's struggle to maintain his humanity while wielding the powers of gods. The novel would explore his relationships with both divine and mortal beings, his internal conflict between creation and destruction, and ultimately his role in a cosmic battle for the balance of all existence. The gods who gave him power would have their own motives, and Milton would discover that even with all the power in the cosmos, true dominion comes with unimaginable consequences.
