Cap 1863 (Edited): I Will Ascend Higher! Part 3

Pov Vecna:

"The universe is crumbling..." (me)

I was in utter and complete despair. The scale of my discovery was beyond my knowledge at the time. It was the end of everything for me. I didn't know other universes existed, I knew nothing of what I know now, so the only solution was the inevitable end that was approaching so fast.

"(Why is this the most vivid memory in your mind...?)" (????)

"(Only when you are at your lowest does the will to Ascend higher shine through. It was on that day that the first step was taken.)" (me)

I was filled with mixed emotions that day, anger at being right, fear at what I considered inevitable, and despair at the first time of being unable to reach a solution.

It was in this state that I fell to the ground, tears streaming from my eyes, tears at the helplessness I felt. It was my lowest point, where my arrogance became shrapnel.
