The gate opened and from the gateway arrived only darkness.
The world sought a Hero of Light, a divine being who was a righteous warrior and would drive out the dragons back to where they came from.
But the world received was a man cloaked in void. Whose emotions had been killed. It seemed like he wore clothes made out of the void.
Fena looked up at the individual and felt nothing.
Her sorrow, her happiness, her rage it seemed every emotion of hers had seemingly disappeared into thin air.
Not just hers her descendants as well. Every trait of personality, everything that made a person human.
Vanished
What left was just a body and what constituted a body.
Even the mana which had scarcely accumulated
The cloaked figure looked down as the Humans at his feet had lost every shread of unique individuality. Then he saw the dragon burning everything down in its path and heading towards him.
The Hero pointed at the dragon and a small part of the void flew towards the dragon and when it made contact with the u knowing dragon it vaporized and disappeared into nothingness.
? :
You, there answer where am I?
Fena who had every emotions even her tears disappeared just by being in his presence answered.
Fena : emotionless
This world is called the Lands, A world which is being explored right now.
? :
I am new to these lands and you look like someone you can guide me. Come leave your kind here and take me to the end.
A mind where there is no thought to reject. To accept to interject. It could do nothing but follow others.
It might be manipulated it might become deranged. It might even destroy itself.
Fena choose to accompany him while leaving the successor behind.
Descendants asked their mother to come back but neither their non exist ant tears nor their dry non emotional voice could reach her. Nor could their thoughts that didn't exist.
Minutes after the voided figured arrived it was as if there was no dragon attack. The dragons seemingly disappeared as if their existance was erased.
Even the flames disappeared just from his mere presence.
The burning debris broke down and disappeared.
The corpses decayed. And anyone who was alive who saw could not question anything for even a thought couldn't occur in their minds. As the cloaked gate buster walked forward. But as he moved away from the survivors. It seemed that their emotions returned and with emotions even their sorrow returned.
As the descendant were left alone by their birth mother.
They ran and went after their mother only to stand in complete silence and thoughtless and emotionless when they entered his presence.
But the figure did noticed.
? :
Why are you following me?
? :
Can't speak. You seem similar to her are you mother and child.
Suddenly thoughts started flooding their head and they could feel and speak.
Descendants :
Please don't take our mother away from us.
? :
I wasn't aware such a beautiful person was your mother.
Don't be mistaken I was only asking for directions.
Their steps turned back.
Chief :
Finally a Hero has descended. Our salvation.
The descendants only thought of one thing
If he is our salvation then why does the salvation looks so dark.
Fena :
I shall accompany you until you leave this world.
But in return you shall have to save the world. Our race fr extinction. Promise me that.
? :
Listen I'm no saviour... But I'm not someone who will turn my back on someone helpless. Just show me my path and I shall be on my merry way.
Fena freed from the binds of the void thought of something clever.
She began shouting in a loud voice.
Fena : shouting with all her might and emotion.
After many prayers our Saviour has finally come onto these lands. The Hero has descended upon these lands.
And he shall save us from devastation.
From the Wrath of the Dragon King.
The descendants were quick to catch up on her mother's schemes. Because it was just Like mother like daughter.
Descendants : shouting and cheering to build morale.
Long live the Hero.
Soon the others joined in the cheering who were far from the void influence.
Audience :
Long live the Hero. Long live the Hero.
Audience :
Slay the dragon king. Slay the dragon king.
Gate busters generally tend not to interfere in the affairs of the world. For them conflict is constant. Thus they try to avoid it. For their only goal is to leave this world and move to the next.
This Fena had to drag and tie him down to the lands as long as possible.
But the Hero was so much enraged by Fena's actions.
He made her aging into nothingness. Which meant that
She had become the First immortal to ever exist.
? :
This is the price for your actions, watch everyone you love die while you lead a worthless life. For as long as your feeble brain can handle.
Fena couldn't understand her consequences as nothing had changed. She felt the same as before.
An apparition because immortal beings never change.
But this way there were many who were ready to accompany and guide the void figure.
And thus this is how the first Hero was crowned.
For as he went by his merry way dragons would fly away in fear. And this the Hero became even more renowned.
And eventually when he came Dave to face with the Dragon King.
He had a party of four all expert navigators of terrains and sea. And some followers who pursued him no matter where he went.
One could handle forests any type no matter how thick they are also handle animal attacks and lay traps for them.
One who could terrain around mountains and peaks an expert in charting.
One who navigated the seas, rivers and lakes also used the north star for navigation.
And one who just knows how to cook.
And they had been instructed by Fena to lead him to as much dragon nests as possible. And thus slowly and steadily as they searched for the keys.
The threat of the dragon was waining. Until they finally fought the Dragon King. And with his defeat dragons were bought to near Extinction.
He could have eradicated the entire race but he chose not to. Because he didn't care. And thus the Dragon's Extinction was thwarted.
Stories of his feat went far and wide.
As how he defeated the Undefeated Dragon King with just one flick of his fingers.
How he destroyed the dragon nests across the lands.
It was said that so many dragons came to attack the Hero that the entire sky went black not due to the light but due to the sheer number of dragons that spanned in millions covered the sky.
And once the Hero slayed all of them a clear sky was seen once again. And not even a single member of his team was injured in the slightest.
How he was awarded with money and honor by the greatest of rulers at that time.
And one day.
How the Hero vanished in thin air.
The Hero was too dangerous to keep living in these lands.
Everything he would touch would lose everything abiut itself.
Even food would lack its individuality by losing its color, taste smell, texture. Everything that made it unique.
That's why the others had to feed him. Just to get some sense of taste.
He was called by many titles.
Such as Hero of Darkness, Hero of the Void.
Monster of the Abyss. Dragon Slaying God.
Future Dragon Slayers worshipped the Hero as a God.
But one title which Fena gave him stuck with him throughout generations because Fena made sure it survived.
The Hero of the Beginning.
Because only after he had left could a new beginning occur.
A new beginning where everyone once again recovers everything that they had lost. Help each other and take themselves to where they once were and soar even higher than before.
This was the Story of the Voided being
Hero of the Beginning.
And the hidden Immortal Fena.
Decades passed as her descendants perished and new descendants would take their place. But she would still be alive. To see everyone she had loved die. To the point where life and death of descendants would become an occasional occurance.
After a hundred years.
Because her soul did not get sent to the afterlife.
The Elder God's sent soldiers from the heavens to take her.
No matter how the soldiers would kill Fena she won't perish.
Even if all of her organs were taken they would come back.
Even if she was torn to shreds she would return.
She had achieved true immortality as even a single feature of her wouldn't change. Even her thinking. And after dying she had truly become an aberration.
So much that she in her mortal form was taken to the heavens. And the Elder God's judged her.
There were no traces of any curses on her.
Elder :
What is this, she has become an aberration. She is no longer human.
Elder 2 :
Then what should we do we can't let her be with humans any longer.
Elder 3 :
She was seething we had been looking for all along.
A way for us to connect to humans and show them the true heavenly path.
Elder 4 :
This cold disturb natural order.
Elder 5:
One immortal being can't do anything in their own.
And thus forced into a contract to be an intermediary between the Heavens and the Mankind. Do the bidding of the gods.
The Elder God's were right one immortal can't do anything.
But three could topple the entire heavens upside down.
And thus it is time for the Second hero to appear.
