The Devastation

Corvus stood out in the middle of a large crater upon Thyria, a large meteor smoldering nearby. His golden eyes locked upon a figure that sat upon the metal rock, or at least the ghost of a figure. He barely understood this being that was before him, but he knew for certain what it's objective was. He sighed, knowing full well that the whole planet was in danger and that he was possibly the only one to protect it at the moment.

The ghostly figure slowly stood up, revealing a white mask with a question mark beneath the hood. Two eyeholes displayed a right eye of purple and a left eye of green, the transparent ghost jumped off the rock, floating down to gently touch the ground.

"Corvus..." The figure muttered, "It's been so long my dear friend... You look... Revived."

"I was given a second chance." Corvus answered.

"Ah, so that is what they call it nowadays... A 'second chance', and for such a screw-up like you... A failure in this massive conjunction of planets, stars, gods, and entities... You of all people though, come before me..."

"I stand in your way to honor my grandfather." Corvus narrowed his eyes, "He created this planet, he gave all life here purpose, and to see you destroy it would dishonor his work."

"Seya did indeed create this place, but a higher power allowed it to form. From day one, fate dictated that Seya could even decide to have a mind and formulate a planet of his desire to give to his children. He who sees all allowed Seya to even create this place, and even so, Seya didn't have full dictation over it; not that someone bound by fate would fully understand that." The masked individual informed, raising his transparent arms into the air, as if giving some wonderful speech to crowds of people.

"What are you saying...?" Corvus twitched in annoyance.

"Veda should've told you how his influence crossed over into the Multiverse long before... Even now..." The masked man's irides shrank, staring at Corvus. From the ghost's viewpoint, a white mass of energy flew out from Corvus' back, disappearing into oblivion only seconds after, "Dear boy, there is so much you still need to learn..."

"I'm sure there is, but I'll never learn if I cannot be given the information to understand."

"Most certainly, too bad that the planet is going to suffer massive destruction unlike never seen before. A catastrophe so great that the Council of Balance will quake in fear knowing I did this; destroyed one of the oldest planets in existence."

"Is that what this is for you... A mere shout out of power?" Corvus stoically questioned, his golden gaze watching every movement that the masked man made.

There was a slight chuckle from said spirit, his shoulders shaking from the withheld laughter, "Oh no, dear Corvus... This is an experiment. One that will possibly create a 'shout out', perhaps the little girl, Ithe, will see this glory... And quake in fear knowing I am far more powerful than any can realize!"

Corvus readied himself into a fighting stance, prepared to take on his foe.

"The end of the Multiverse is approaching, Corvus, but you shall not experience that wonder... You shall die here, regretting everything you ever did in your meager time alive. You shall die, alongside Thyria... That much is absolute."
