Chapter 1 Death

  After what felt like an eternity, I felt like I was floating in a void, I couldnt see anything, and I could only make out the faint edges of my body, it looked white and transparent. Is this the afterlife?

  “Yes, and no. You're very much dead, but not done yet.”

  From the abyss a beautiful woman, her form seeming to bring life and light to the void around me slowly comes closer. I try to speak, but I cant form words, my mouth wont open, my lungs unable to draw air.

  “Dont try talking, you simply cant, youre simply a soul, and what you think is your body is simply its shape. You have no lungs or organs.”

  She calmly tells me, but the urge to breathe is still there, even without the ability. How am I here? Does everyone experience this?

  “No, youre a special case, I saw your soul burning brightly, even when you were dying, and have brought you here for a second chance.”

  A second chance? Am I going to live again? What i would give to not be bound by my body…

  “Yes, im giving you a second chance, and a chance to go into the 4th dimension, your people theorized it was space and time, but its actually magic that makes a 4th dimensional being.”

  I try to make a suprised look, failing as my soul lacks the… everything needed. But it seems to get the point across.

  “No need to be suprised. Your people can imagine it, but cant touch it, makes sense dosnt it? The point of the matter is, I am what your kind would call ‘god’ while im only one of a few we have a project. This project is for promising souls to be uplifted to add more to our number eventually, we have gained a few over eons but you seem promising, so I pulled you up a bit.”

  My head reels a bit from the information. I was being reincarnated in hopes of eventual godhood? That's insane. But I would love to have a second life at the least…

  “I know that its a lot, but thats several eons and many reincarnations away from being a possibility. This time ill let you keep your memories, it will feel like it was a dream, or deja vu until you come of age, but it will let you truly become a higher being.”

  I pondered this. A deal that I would never pass up… is there anything I have to do while im there?

  “No goals, besides becoming strong. That's all I have to advise you on. Good, evil, it's all subjective. Just be happy I guess.”

  She shrugs looking at me.
