Ascathon smiles. “Ha! You see, a government needs a society! And a society of gods needs a place to live in! We'll build a huuuge city out of crystal, which makes all gods look at it in awe! And what better place would there be than a world made out of crystal!”

He produces another set of pages. “Then we move this entire planet to a strategically important point. Something like a cross-junction between the pathways! I have to do some research on that.”

“Actually I think we should call the city Asheim! The home of the Ascended. What do you think of that?” He continues to talk to himself.

Jazira scratches her head. “Actually I have some important things to do. I should spend a little more time with my empire while it still exists. Aaah... a hundred thousand years seem extremely short from the perspective of a god.” She vanishes.

“Hey guys... I am not done yet!” Ascathon gasps.

Lidith nods. “She is right. Now that we have taken care of the idiot trio I think I'll take a vacation... a long one.” Lidith fades away.

Ascathon grasps his stack of papers tighter. “How rude!” His eyes turn towards Celestial who knits her eyebrows together.

Then she stands up and walks away while she yawns. “Actually I think I'll take a nap first. A hundred thousand years is a long time. There is no need to be overly hasty.” The door closes behind her.

I watch the door for several moments until I feel a pair of eyes resting on me and I turn towards my father.

He grasps my hand. “Sera! You are my cute little daughter whom I taught so much! You'll help me to realize my dreams won't you? I know that it'll take a long time and a lot of diplomatic persuasion. You are up for the task aren't you?”

“Do... Don't look at me like that! I am just a demigod!” It's not like Lidith managed to teach me how to use pathways. Not at all. I want to explore the multiverse before I waste my time with such a heavy task. I have to make sure that he  doesn't find out!

So I pull my hand away. “~Actually.~” I purse my lips and think for a moment. “I promised Arran to play some games with him. So let's talk about that when I am an adult and have some kids of my own.”

Ascathon blinks.

I turn and run out of the room, slamming the door shut behind me.
