After a long period of reflection, I opened my eyes and asked Evelysla
”When will Abaddon appear?”
”In four days time”
”Four days? So after three Sunrises and Sunsets?”
”Yes”
”shi+t! Tell everyone to back off 100 meters!”
”Okay!”
She jus shuffled away as she herded her people away forate
”Material Creation!”
I hurriedly recreated all the necessary parts right there and then on the desert sand
”Hmm… it was a bit rushed”
After about 12 hours I had finished asseain seen the light, pointing directly at the arched gate
”Let's see if I can create that one as well”
”Material Creation!”
A large hammer appeared in my hand
”It's a bit crude, but it should do the trick Evelysla, bring forth your strongest clansman”
”Got it!”
Shortly after she led a rather large ratht him before me
”Hht, he indeed looks quite sturdy”
”Odin is the strongest of us all!”
'Odin is it… could it just be a coincidence that they have the same name?'
”Here, take this”
I handed him the hammer, and as soon as he picked it up he seemed to become excited, unti…
Paaazik!
A lightning bolt fell from the sky and struck the hammer
Squeak! Squeak!
Odin was terrified and dropped the hammer, while Evelysla placed her hands on her ears and flattened herself against the sand
”Well at least it see fine”
The ratman Odin proved that he was quite brave as he picked the hammer back up once more and bowed towards me cordially
”You are quite well ive this to you”
”No way, I can't accept such a divine weapon”
”In order to summon me your people had to pay a terrible price, you can think of this as some small compensation”
”Yes… thank you” Evelysla translated ave a deep bow
”It's a fair price so you can pick yourself up with dignity,” said Evelysla, but he continued to prostrate himself before me with his face in the sand
”Ah… well that's that, Evelysla come with me”
”Yes!”
I brought her to the control seat of the large gun and hoisted her up her up onto it
”What is it?”
”Here is where you sit to control the gun You press this button to shoot, and after a 10 second delay, the projectile will be fired Also it can only be fired three times If it passes that threshold it will likely overheat and explode so make sure to make those three shots count”
”Will this be enough to stop him?”
”I can't answer that for you, but I've done all I can With that haun, you should be able to find a way I've supported you to the best of my abilities, so I'll be on my way now”
”Thank you God! We will do our best, so you can go back without worrying about the sacrifice involved”
”No, I won't be going through with that, the price is far too high You just need to use what I gave you and fight off this Abaddon character to save the universe Oh and when you fire the gun, immediately press this yellow button over here which will create a shi+eld around the gate Make sure not to forget to create the shi+eld or else you'd be caught in the blast zone
”Okay!”
”Good, then don't follow me from now on, okay?”
She nodded back and then prostrated herself on the ground
”I' now,” I said as I turned around and walked out into the desert
”Dauilty about it!”
I was once again surrounded by endless desert, with nothing in sight after half a day of walking and trying not to look back
”This should be far enough right? Material Creation!”
I createdpool,desert
”Might as well relax here until Lena is done with her calculations”
I cooled of for a little while, then climbed out and fashi+oned myself a simple bed under the parasol which I used to take a well deserved nap
”Johra, Johra! Oh my God!”
I akened by Lena's excited shouts just as the suns were setting and the cold crept in
”So you're back Lena… but next time don't immerse yourself so much in your work to the exclusion of all else”
”Sorry about that, I thought I'd be fine since there weren't any signs of life nearby and saw that the calculations would be very difficult”
”I see”
”So… do you knohere we are now?”
”Uhm… wasn't that your job to find out?”
” By studying the positioning of stars and movement of cosmic forces, I've realized that we've returned 20 million years in the past, to when the universe is only 100,000 years old”
”Are you serious… 20 million years? damn”
I was expecting so forin of life, but still never ione back so far
I looked up to see the stars in the night sky
”Is this around the ti? They don't look all that different from 20 million years from now”
”What do you o on to become the cornerstones of the known universe, there are no words to express such joy”
”Lena you sound quite hus you say”
”Haha I am a well made AI”
”Anyway, did you o back?”
”Well…”
”Where you not able to find anything out?”
”There was this one clue”
”What clue?”
”It was the Ratht?”
”Yes”
”They can then send you back”
”That would be pointless though, in order to do that they would need to sacrifice 30,000 lives”
”Have you forgotten that I' for tiic stone it could replace their sacrifices”
