The shadows burden:the one who bears all

In The Shadows' Burden: The one Who Bears All, the story follows Umbra, an enigmatic and immensely powerful god known for his boundless love and unshakable will. As the strongest among the gods, Umbra stands apart, choosing not to wield his power for harm, which earns him the deep love and loyalty of the people. This adoration, combined with the unwavering support of the Shadows—his devoted followers—fuels the envy and resentment of other gods who feel threatened by his unbreakable will. Unable to tarnish Umbra's character directly, these jealous gods conspire to alter time itself, manipulating both past and future events to rewrite the truth of who Umbra truly is. They influence the very narration of his story, casting doubt on what is real and what is fabricated. As part of their scheme, they force Umbra into a relentless cycle of reincarnation, subjecting him to endless forms of suffering before each rebirth. Each life brings its own torment, compelling him to bear the weight of existence in all its forms. As we travel through Umbra's lives with him, we will encounter an array of overpowered characters, each with their own unique abilities and motivations. The veil of deception slowly lifts, revealing hidden truths and a complex past shaped by betrayal, love, and resilience. Ultimately, The Shadows' Burden becomes a powerful exploration of faith, truth, and the relentless pursuit of self-discovery amid a universe determined to hide it.

Chapter 34: The Gods' Cruelty

Chapter 34: The Gods' Cruelty

The grand palace of the gods was an architectural marvel beyond comprehension, with towering spires that pierced the heavens and halls that stretched into infinity. Its beauty was a cruel mockery of the horrors that unfolded within. Umbra's wives, bloodied and battered, were dragged into the chamber by invisible forces, their strength sapped and their spirits hanging by a thread. The gods, a collection of arrogant beings clad in shimmering armor and robes, loomed over them, their expressions ranging from amusement to outright malice.

One god leaned forward, a sinister smile playing on his lips. "We've already broken Umbra. Now it's your turn."

Despite their dire situation, Umbra's wives refused to cower. Their eyes blazed with defiance, even as pain wracked their bodies. Their silence spoke louder than any words—a declaration that they would not bow, no matter what torment awaited them.
