Scene 1: Bloodstained Awakening
📜 SYSTEM WARNING: ⚠ Entity: Nyxara Has Entered Awakening Stage 1. ⚠ Celestial Balance in Jeopardy.
The moment Seth's soul was erased, the heavens cracked.
Nyxara stood among the gods who had murdered him, her body trembling, her vision blurring between rage and unbearable grief.
Her breath came ragged, her heart an abyss of agony, and her hands, once divine, were now stained in the blood of the only one she ever loved.
And she laughed.
A hollow, broken sound—one that sent shivers through the divine executioners.
Then, her body began to break.
Her eyes bled. Her skin cracked. Her essence, raw and unchecked, burned against reality itself.
And then, she moved.
Scene 2: The Slaughter of the Divine
📜 SYSTEM ANNOUNCEMENT: ⚠ Celestial Casualties Rising. ⚠ Emergency Reinforcements Requested.
The first god who dared to step forward was ripped apart before he could even react.
Nyxara's hand pierced through his chest, her fingers clawing into divine essence, pulling it apart as if unraveling the threads of existence.
A god should not be able to die this way.
But her hands were not the hands of a goddess anymore.
They were the hands of vengeance itself.
She tore through the executioner's Heart , their golden blood raining upon the battlefield, staining the once-holy ground with the price of their arrogance.
"Give him back."
Her voice ripped through reality, a command, a demand, a sound so wrong that even the System glitched upon registering it.
📜 SYSTEM ERROR: ⚠ Impossible Request Detected. ⚠ "Resurrection" Protocol Does Not Exist.
"GIVE HIM BACK!"
She slammed her fist into the earth, and the ground itself screamed, rupturing as shockwaves sent divine beings flying into oblivion.
For the first time, the gods knew fear.
And then, he arrived.
Scene 3: Butcher, the God of Carnage Descends
📜 SYSTEM ALERT: ⚠ Entity "Butcher" Has Descended. ⚠ Deploying Highest-Level Combat Protocols.
A laugh echoed across the heavens, deep and guttural, carrying with it a sense of inevitable destruction.
Nyxara turned, her breath sharp, her vision red with divine ichor.
And there he stood.
A being twice her height, wrapped in chains, his form an abomination of sinew and metal, his eyes black pits of endless hunger.
His name was Butcher.
A god of carnage. A divine being who feasted upon war itself.
He cracked his neck, rolling his massive shoulders, his voice like blades grinding against bone.
"Ahh, it's been a while since I felt excitement."
"A goddess losing her mind? That's something new."
Nyxara didn't hesitate.
She lunged.
And for the first time, she was stopped.
Scene 4: The Struggle Against Butcher
Their clash sent shockwaves through the heavens, shattering floating cities, tearing open void rifts in the sky.
Nyxara's fists, once unstoppable, were caught in his massive hands, crushed with ease.
He grinned.
"You hit hard, girl. But do you know what the problem is?"
"Pain makes me stronger too."
And then, he broke her ribs with a single punch.
Nyxara choked on her own blood, her vision distorting, her body crashing through the ruins of Eldorath's last standing towers.
Pain.
So much pain.
Seth was gone. Her body was crumbling. And now, even after awakening, she was still losing.
No.
No.
She wouldn't let it end like this.
"I won't die."
"I won't stop."
"I WILL BRING HIM BACK!"
Scene 5: Awakening Through Pain
📜 SYSTEM ERROR: ⚠ Entity: Nyxara Entering Awakening Stage 2. ⚠ Divine Threshold Exceeded. ⚠ Emergency Lockdown Attempted… FAILED.
Her body burned.
Her own flesh peeled away, replaced with something new, something terrifying.
Her wings, once divine and radiant, tore open, now blackened, feathered with the remnants of the gods she had slain.
Her eyes glowed crimson, rivers of blood pouring from them, yet she felt no pain.
And as Butcher loomed over her, preparing to end it—
She caught his wrist.
And snapped it in half.
His laugh faltered.
For the first time in eons, Butcher felt something unfamiliar.
A sensation he had long forgotten.
Fear.
Nyxara opened her mouth, but her voice was no longer her own.
"You cannot kill what does not break."
And then, she attacked.
Scene 6: The Goddess Who Would Not Fall
📜 SYSTEM WARNING: ⚠ Nyxara's Awakening is No Longer Under Divine Control. ⚠ High-Risk Entity Classification Updated: "Uncontrollable."
She overpowered Butcher, ripping into his divine form, shattering his ribs, tearing apart the very core of his existence.
For every wound he dealt, she awakened further.
For every moment of agony, she grew stronger.
She was no longer a goddess.
She was something else.
Something even the gods feared.
"You will regret this," Butcher snarled, blood dripping from his jagged mouth.
Nyxara grinned through her own suffering.
"You are not worth regretting."
And with one final strike, she crushed him into the ground, sending a rupture through reality itself.
The war had only just begun.
Scene 7: The Gods Make a New Plan
📜 SYSTEM ALERT: ⚠ Butcher Defeated. ⚠ Nyxara's Awakening Progress: UNKNOWN. ⚠ Risk Level: BEYOND MEASURE.
The gods gathered in secret.
They had underestimated her.
They had thought breaking her would be enough.
They were wrong.
"She cannot be allowed to continue existing."
"If she reaches full awakening, we may never be able to stop her."
"Then let's do what we did before."
A silence fell.
And then, one god spoke the words that sealed fate itself.
"We erased Seth Valerian."
"We will erase her too."
