11 Interlude - Another judgement! (2/2)

”No, he is dead too. He died shortly after you, from the wounds you inflicted on him. I put his soul into that marble for safekeeping.”, she says sadly.

”Why would you do that?”, I don't understand.

”To have you both be judged by the council. And since you were quite a piece of work Myrm, I had to keep him from resurrecting.” -Seria

The council? But why should they care? They don't move a finger at the fate of worlds! Such matters don't concern them!

”But... But why. The council ….”, but Seria interrupts me.

”Oh, my Myrm. You are the same as Ascathon. He didn't get what you two did either...”, Seria has a sad look in her eyes now.

”I get it! We trashed a world! And what about it! If we wouldn't have taken action ourselves it would have ended badly one or the other way.”, I am angry.

”hahaha.... the council doesn't care what you did to that world. Or its inhabitants. It wouldn't care if you destroyed a universe. That happens everywhere, at all times. And the same way everything is reborn again. The Council is angry at you for another reason. You two will be punished for something, the council regards as something far worse than those little reasons you talk about. And I was chosen to supervise your punishment.”

Seria smiles weakly.

Tears well up in my eyes, ”So what can be worse than destroying a world!”

Seria sighs,

”I guess you two are too young to ever understand in time, so I will tell you. You have killed each other! You two have killed that, which cannot be killed.. You broke the divinity. You ended the unending. That hasn't happened in all existence. And the council is afraid of what that could mean.”

Seria waves her hand before my eyes and everything goes dark.
