I rewrote bits and pieces of this chapter to make it sound more cohesive, make the sentences flow better, and add some more character. So sorry for the inconvenience. :(

Chapter 1 The birth of a god

   /Godseekers pov:

We finally found our god. We finally did it, the quietness that filled our minds was gone we were finally free from that pain due to the divine will of our new god. We are....we......we.....I. I was alone in my mind. I was now separate from the unity of my people. But it didn't feel as lonely as I remembered it to be. Maybe because we joined minds so long ago I forgot how it felt to be a single person with one mind. Or maybe it wasn't that long ago. I didn't know I couldn't remember my memories were so foggy. But I knew for certain that I have been blessed by the God of Gods themself to be pulled into their cold divine embrace of joining them in the void and helping free them into the world of hollownest. To spread the divine will and self. Maybe that is the reason why I was separated from my people's mind. But I stopped my trail of thought when I realized I began to feel my eyes again and I slowly opened them. I looked and saw I was still in the junk pit. My sight was very blurry as if I was crying. I felt the tears go down my face, but they felt thick and viscous. I wiped the tears off my face. Looking down at my hand in curiosity I realized these were not tears coming out of my eyes. They were black pitch black. Darker than the pit I was in as if it was sucking in all the light that was in the room. I was hit with a realization of what this was, it was void........th..th..the void was pouring out of my eyes.

   Before I could even properly process what this could even mean I felt a jab of excruciating pain through my whole body. As I began to try to cry out but it didn't last very long. As I felt the void fill my lungs, then my throat.

I can't breathe.

   The pain wasn't stopping either it was getting worse and worse by the second. I began feel my body being to convulse painfully I felt my exoskeleton and tendons rip and snap as the convulsing continued to rip and snap my body. It kept getting worse and worse. My body began to dissolve and melt like a candle my body being consumed by void as it came from the Godhome to reality, using me as its gateway.

   Was this some cruel punishment by my god? was this the punishment for treating them like nothing but a worthless cretin when I first saw them? Why was this happening to me WHY WAS THIS HAP—

   Then a new wave of pain, an indescribable amount of pain hit me like a wave of rushing water. I wished that I could just die but I didn't. The pain didn't stop oh the pain...the pain it kept growing and swelling and it wouldn't stop, all I could do is lay there and except my fate because I couldn't do anything else, not even scream as my body contorted in unnatural ways. As void poured out of me. Then with a massive burst like a dam tendrils of void broke out of me. My ears were then flooded by an ear piercing sound................a roar.

   I felt cold, very cold, and my was body aching horribly as well. I didn't remember why there body felt this way, but I could remember something, and that was that I was just in god home in the middle of fighting the Radiance. But I don't think I am in god home any more. So they tried to get up to see what was going, and to see were I am, even though my body protested it.

   Slowly the world came into view I realized that it seemed that I assumed right of thinking that I wasn't that in god home anymore. I was in the junk pit But it looked oddly different, everything looked smaller, and darker, and I think it was due to some black liquid that was everywhere. This black liquid looked almost alive as it looked like it was trying to latch on to anything it could reach.
