"You have been chosen Secregard !" That voice boomed from the heavens, "to be a part of the council of the grand gods."

Secregard smiled, so this was how they wanted to play, he thought, to lure him to their side.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN0FqTtIuU
"What makes you think I deserve to be a part of the council of the grand gods ?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1n5fYtuhIw

"Indeed, you are correct Secregard, might is right."

"Why do you think I brought an end to their existence", he asked, trying to keep himself from charging into the heavens.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA6r8wnFlR
"You must not allow weakness cloud your judgement this is the way of the heavens, the strong prey on the weak, the lower domains are the soil of the higher realms that is their purpose of creation."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74r4ACSDOO
"To be fed on", said Secregard, "what if you were the prey ?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzMgokXGYj
"How dare you ?!" The voice thundered, "Calling a grand god a prey."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg7n0I0HgM

455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsKdipGRYp
"Then who will become the predator if we become the prey ?"

The winds howled and thundered as he rose to the ruptured heavens. His oath was firm and still blazing in his heart, who were they to claim omnipotence ? When they were nothing but greedy and power thirsty fools who thought that none could rival them.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWf8iJIY36
"Well then", Secregard was ablaze "I shall become their rival."

"Throw them to the bottom of hell !" grand ELDER GOD, MERNOS declared.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaC3qNjuJe
The heavens rattled and burst into flames, but Secregard was still unfazed. He was aiming for nothing other than the demise of the grand gods and there was no storm that was going to stand in his way. They might have been able to persist in their ways since the beginning of time, but their judge had arrived and he was going to mete out their punishments, so that they shall be know that their omnipotence, their power, was never theirs to begin with, they were nothing but scum to be thrown to the bottom of the earth.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iU82BKZMj
The earth trembled and gave way as that sea of lava rose to the skies aiming at Secregard. He was their target, the thorn at the side of the grand gods.

"Secregard !" That voice boomed. "Again, choose wisely, become one of us and you shall have infinite power, or rot in depths of misery and regret for eternity !"

"The latter condition is better than being one of you", Secregard proclaimed as he charged onwards.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6EyD6MYIB

That sea of lava became enraged, aiming at the skies, it tore open its jaws swallowing Secregard into it's depths.

TEN THOUSAND YEARS LATER ...

His form was a pillar of flames, with those chains running down his arms and legs as he was bounded within this realm of fire. His breaths were steaming and when he finally opened his eyes, they were molten red.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu34okodqk
"Secregard !" That voice boomed. "Have you finally decided to follow your path ?"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRv3WXYG5cD

But the voice didn't respond.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bEzppnX38
"Ten thousand years", he sighed, tugging at the chains, "and I have dug my roots into the bowels of the heavens and the earth. I must ascend, the time has come for me to be free."
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwq22p82KG
The lava within this pit rose to the skies, tearing at the heavens, it tore apart realm after realm in search of the one passage that led to Godsland. But before it could find its way, that army of divine beasts rose, charging at the pit in which Secregard was chained.

" ... REBORN !"
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNWLMlZEpQ
Secregard's being erupted from the cocoon, blazing and burning of a golden flare which had never been seen in the entire ranks of existence. Those burning cracks ran down his eyes, steaming and burning, they buried their fury deep into his soul.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYykcGZp7t
"Now I shall come for you all", he said, tearing away from the chains and charging at the skies.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rLgfgfOB7
Like a bolt of lightning, he tore through the ranks of the army of divine beasts. No way were they going to keep him tied down this time, to him after spending ten millenniums in that pit of hell, he knew what true power and pain represented. And like the warlord he had now become, he was going to show them that within the heavens there would be none who was going to rival him.
455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk6zstjZIg
His form burst into flames with that sea of burning lightning erupting, expanding across this expanse it set the heavens ablaze, consuming the entire army of divine beasts. It left them howling as they burnt to death. But he wasn't done yet, their wailing souls could be seen rushing towards Secregard as he sealed them within the orb of flames in his right palm, where they howled and growled even louder. This was the torment they were going to endure for centuries and the very way ...

"Are you exaggerating ? So you think this is a joke ?!"

455Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp70Ts5LD64
"Yes we should have but, would that have been enough to convince one like him. Secregard was willing to bring an apocalypse upon Godsland over his desire for justice. Do you think retraining him will do us any good ? Rather, it would give him the impression that we are truly tyrants and that he is actually fighting for justice.

"We no longer have the power to stop him. But when he has been released to see the world as it is, he will come to realize that the beings of the lesser realms can be as despicable and power hungry as the ELDER GODS. Only when he has truly experienced it himself, will he come to realize that the demolition of the weaker domains was nothing more than the will of the heavens - IT IS THE WILL OF TIME."

Infinite in its hunger and desire to tear the heavens apart, only the strong could wage a war against the stronger, only a fool would dare face the waves of mightier storms and who, could that fool be ?
