Chapter 1: War... It Never Changes
Night 1 of the special ops mission in Sudan, March 2022: hot days and nights where I sweat when I'm in an ice bath. I and some men from the Jackal squad went on night watch but only got wet from the sporadic rain and wind. No sight of the target anywhere in the mission vicinity. Some other guys are on night watch so I can finally sleep for the night.
Night 2 of the special ops mission in Sudan, March 2022: still hot but I think my nerves have melted so I can't feel it anymore. Went on a widespread reconnaissance with my squad and encountered some wanderers but still no sign of the mission target. The squad leader has contacted the Pentagon and we will move out in the morning to another spot for reconnaissance.
Night 3 of the special ops mission in Sudan, March 2022: We encountered some hyenas on one of the SAD ops but they were taken down pretty quickly. Squad leader to a bite to the leg but the band-aid patched him up nicely. Anyways no sightings of mission target.
Night 4 of the special ops mission in Sudan, March 2022: Nothing happened today. I'm getting bored in this damn cave so I'm just writing in my notebook right now. The squad leader has been acting weird lately almost like he's waiting for something. What am I doing, I might get the MP's dick in my ass if I get reported for talking badly about my direct superior. Well anyway, we saw something really weird outside the cave today... like it was a weird hole and a bunch of animals were falling in it.. we didn't want to go near it but didn't report it thinking it was the dehydration causing hallucinations.
Night 5 of the special ops mission in Sudan, March 2022: Nobody can sleep right now... we keep hearing this weird screeching noise outside but we couldn't see anything when we looked its just pitch black out there... we can't even see the moon although it's not cloudy.. the screeching is getting closer and the squad leader has gone missing at around 23:15 and the phone that has direct contact to the MO isn't working and just makes the same screeching noise from the outside when we make a call... we don't know what to do... god help us get out of he-

Night 73 in the darkness, June 2022: everyone is dead... there are monsters everywhere, never-ending darkness, I can't even see the ground, the screeching noise has gotten so loud I've gone deaf now, those monsters... guns don't work on them, only the combat knife works... IT DOESN'T EVEN WORK ON ALL THE MONSTERS.. only the small goblin-looking things... there are bigger monsters I haven't encountered yet. so huge I only saw a shadow of their feet. I don't know how there are shadows in the pitch-black darkness but I don't want to know either... I can't kill myself even if I tried and I don't have the willpower to be killed by the monsters that slowly rip you to shreds and torture you to death. I just want to die... I don't want to be in this hell any longer.

Walking toward the light he found nothing... no monsters, no death, just nothing, but then something spoke to him. he could hear it even though he has long been deaf.
"!%!&^#$!@%^#$&!@ @&%R!@&$@!#&!$ @!#$@!&^%$!#@&^$%!& @!&#$!@&^%$@!&^#$!@#&!@$#&%^&@%^#$!&@#%$@!&^#!@$#&^!@%#%$@&^#$!@&#$!@&&%^@!#$&!@#$!@&#%^$!@&%^$!#&%^$!&%^!$#&!@$^@!&^#$!@&^$@!^$@!&$@!&$@!&#$@!&@$!@!&$@&!"
It was like a chant that awakened his soul he felt everything reform in his body... his mind, has become one with his soul and his physical body has been shed like someone taking off their clothes. he has become something more.. a higher level being akin to a god. The knowledge he never knew was absorbed into his new being. he could see through the mortal boundaries and was able to see the truth of all things, he was no longer bound to a body and could do anything but nothing.. he could no longer touch the things of reality but he realized his gift... he could affect the soul.. adjust them by bringing them dreams.. bring them happiness, sadness, an unending seeking for vengeance, he could even have them live a whole life within a single second.
He had truly become a being higher than any creature in reality. Although he has gained omniscient power he has also suffered a curse all high-level deities share... the lack of emotions. He felt nothing, no happiness of being free from the darkness, no sadness, regret, or confusion about his new being, just nothing but thoughts roamed his being akin to a machine.
Just then he saw a realm portal open up in front of him and he walked through into a world only thought to be fictional.
