Alexander was not surprised and had already guessed the answer. Alexander said, " So, you are the manifestation of force of this universe. But, how did you know all this?"
The little girl, " Let me finish first....The manifestation of force in the Prime Universe was only a child when she was attacked..."
Alexander interrupted, " Attacked by who?"
The girl said with a voice full with so much hatred and venom that Alexander was taken aback, " Those two bastards, the world laws and life fragment."
Alexander asked in a serious voice, " What happened?"
The girl continued in a sad voice, " The force was born due to the faith energy gathered together over thousands of years, from the various civilizations that worshipped force in some form.... The force was born after 10,000 years after the mortals settled on Tython. The force had a mentality of a 3 to 4 years child so she just observed the people living in the Galaxy. She grew sad when she realised that all the being had parents and siblings, companions to play with but she had no one on the weird white land, she was living on...."
Alexander, " The force was living on this land in the prime universe. Why?"
The girl continued and said, " Force was an entity above mortals and her presence in the mortal world would bring mass destruction upon it. She was ejected from the world as soon as she was born but she was an essential element of existence so a separate dimension was created just for her. As the world laws were dormant, the universe were working on autopilot so it created the dimension for the new entity....."
The girl continued in a shaky voice, " She had the thinking of an innocent child and didn't want to harm anybody so she didn't try to enter forcibly. For 20,000 years force just watched mortals and grew in mentally but the development of her thought process was very slow so she had the mentality of 6 years old child when she met the world laws and the life fragment...."
The girl continued in a sad and shaky voice, " She was very happy as she had connections with the world laws and life fragment and thought them as her siblings. She had seen how in the mortal world, siblings would get separated and meet each other after a long time so she thought that the two bastards were her siblings.....She was so happy that she rambled happily about all the fun activities, she would do with them while holding their hands. The manifestation of world laws and life fragment just nodded along and asked force to show them around.... When her back was turned, they attacked....."
The girl continued in traumatic and shaky voice, " Her cries of pain were so full of anger, betrayal, sadness, confusion and so many negative emotions as those bastards destroyed her very being that they rendered the reality apart..... The ancient Jedi prayed to the force and the innocent child sought to help them even she was getting struck by deadly blows..... She urged them to let Tython.... The negative emotions emitted by force attracted the attention of the dark fragment and he drew immense power from it .... The dark fragment attacked all the three and force realised that she would not be able to escape, in her desperation she emitted all the power she could in the form of an explosion, the three bastards were quite injured as the explosion reopened their old wounds.... The force was the first genuine deity of this multiverse even if she was young.... Her kamikaze move injured the three bastards who were gathering powers for millions of years was prove of her power.... As the force was on her deathbed, she felt the force energy present in the entire multiverse and send a warning to all her counterparts in the multiverse...."
The girl laughed in sadness and said, " As the three bastards had absorbed parts of her being, they were all able to sense the budding force manifestations in the multiverse.... They wanted to end the threat prematurely so they send a small fragment of their powers to all the universes, this weakened them and they retreated back to their domains or wherever they reside.... These fragments fought a death battle for dominance among them and whichever side won, that universe would belong to it... But, there was a fourth side to this conflict also, the FORCE..... If the force had manifested in the universe then she usually won as she was the deity of that universe.... Sometimes, all the four perished together.... Sometimes one of the fragment managed to escape to the mortal world and recuperate there by absorbing their respective emotions ...."
Alexander asked in curious voice, " So, what I the condition in this universe?"
Force grew embarrassed and said in a low voice, " They all managed to escape."
Alexander was perplexed and asked, " How?"
Force said, " You wanted to know how I know all this right.....Well!!! I captured them and interrogated them for information.... The dark side was quite the bastard and managed to escape.... His escape distracted me and the rest also managed to get away."
Alexander grew serious and asked, " So, where are they? How powerful are they?"
Force sadistically smiled and said, " I had not made their stay with me comfortable for them , so they were pretty weakened and injured when they escaped from here. I had reduced them to the power level of a master Jedi if only, I had not been riled by the dark side and given into anger...which empowered him momentarily and enabled him to make his escape and after that everything snowballed... The three fragments had taken resident in Korriban for the dark fragment, Ossum for the Light fragment and Mortis for the law fragment... They had ran there as these planets were closest to their original ones domains."
Alexander, " How is Mortis close to souls? In what form they are hiding? What is their power level now."
Force, " The Mortis is the physical gate to afterlife of this universe. The light and dark fragments are the planets themselves. They merged with the planet's core to better absorb the emotions as planets are more connected to force. The law fragment was hiding on Mortis , he had tried to take over the body of the celestial calling himself ' Father ' but failed so he was further weakened. The celestial was quite mad in head due to the death of his wife and tore the fragment in two and fused it with his son and daughter."
Alexander, " But, The Ones are Celestial, right?"
Force snorted and said, " The one calling himself father is the last celestial and he didn't know about his heritage for many years after the death of his wife. His children are half celestials and were quite small in terms of celestials when their mother died so they don't remember much. The infusing of law fragment also muddled their memories further. The celestial was afraid that his son and daughter would die some day so he tried to prolong their lives. The children were in quite a trauma after witnessing his fight with the fragment so it erases their memories. He then, erased his own memory so that he would give anything away unknowingly but he still vaguely remembers some parts which he interprets as some tribulation of force when he had strayed too much into one side of force."
Alexander, " Does the light or dark side even exists?"
Force, " No, the force just enhances the emotions felt by a force sensitive being. When such a being feels strong emotions, he instinctively draws in more force to curb the stimuli which is causing this. That's why sith are more powerful than their Jedi counterpart if they have the same midichlorian count but drawing in force while feeling strong emotions leaves a stronger imprint on mind which affects the personality of the one drawing the force. That's why sith are so mad in head while the Jedi practice of releasing their emotions in force may look good on surface but it is far more dangerous. The Jedi don't release their emotions in force but the force surpress their emotions till the Jedi don't feel it anymore. The suppression works only to an extent and when that threshold is crossed, it turns into a.....a.... what you call those devices..... yes...the time bomb...the Jedi become like a walking time bomb. But the monk lifestyle of Jedi helps them in combating this situation to an extent. When a Jedi would stray depends on the willpower of the Jedi in question."
Alexander, " Why do you want me to conquer this dimension?"
Force, " So that I could escape from here. When you will conquer this dimension , you will have the power to evict me and I will be able to enter the mortal world."
Alexander, " Will you entrance not endanger the mortal world?"
Force, " No as I will not be going out of my own will, my arrival will not endanger the mortal world but I will be severely weakened."
Alexander, " Will that not endanger you? The two remaining fragments could attack you."
Force snorted and said, " Even weakened, I will be able to destroy planets without any outside help."
Alexander, " What benefit will I get from conquering this dimension."
Force, " You will be able to create an afterlife for your kingdom with this."
Alexander, " How?"
Force, " This dimension is a world of it's own. The owner of this world can shape it in whatever he wants but it is not a physical world but a spiritual world so nothing physical can exist here."
Alexander, " So, how am I here?"
Force, " Your soul is here but your body is in mortal world. To everyone else, you are just in meditation."
Alexander, " But that doesn't explain on how the afterlife would be created and how the souls will go there?"
Force, " First, you would have to design the afterlife in your mind then supply enough power to change this world to suit your needs. Every soul has a mark which enables it to enter it's afterlife. If the soul is without any mark, it gets pulled into the void and gets destroyed. The trillions of people who you claimed as your subjects are now without a mark. Due to your advance technology, no one had died till now but in a few years, people will start to die and you will lose your subjects permanently.
This world also have it's mark which is imprinted on me so I will be pulled back after a short while if I leave this world. I can resist it but it will be like having a nagging feeling at the back of the mind which can be ignored. Now, when you conquer this world, you will be able to leave the mark on the souls which are unmarked and also remove the mark. The reason I told you design an afterlife because bad souls feed on good souls and evolve into weird spiritual monsters so you would want to keep them separate."
Alexander, " How do you know this?"
Force, " I was curious about the prime universe and it's domains so I thoroughly interrogated each fragment. The world laws uses these monsters as a means to end the followers of both the fragments. The prime universe is quite messed up."
Alexander, " No, I am talking about the the mark?"
Force, " I was born with this knowledge.'
Alexander, " So, you didn't try to gather the souls of the dead? And, why I cannot feel force in this dimension if this dimension houses the manifestation of force itself? Do you not control this dimension?"
Force, " The mark of the afterlife cannot be removed. I am not in control of this dimension, I am just living here. The world laws control this dimension. The force is not present in this dimension."
Alexander, " So, how were you going to destroy planets by alone?"
Force, " Pure Physical Power."
Alexander, " What about the afterlife of this universe?"
Force, " The afterlives of universes other than prime universe which is under the direct control of the world laws is on default setting. All the souls are kept separate but powerful souls manage to appear as force ghosts in the mortal world."
Alexander through his questions now knew that something was not right here, but what?
