Nigga Lamp - Remastered

Prologue - A God's Requiem

"Patrick Doherty, welcome to the afterlife. Unfortunately, you've died. It might've been short, but your life's now over."

Paddy was hit with a wave of confusion, and was greeted with a great flash of light which was almost blinding.

Suddenly out of nowhere, a hand shot out from above down towards the empty void he found himself in.

"Look my son, unfortunately for you, it seems you have met your demise in your previous life."

"are you god are ya?"

"Yes my son, I have many names, but 'God' is one of them."

"not so bad then, how do i get back to me house?"

God was feeling a bit of empathy for one of his many creations, as he was seemingly unaware of his situation.

"My son, it seems you do not understand. You are dead. Therefore, you have left the earth, and your soul is now within what you could call, a state of 'limbo'.

"ah sure thats a load of shite so it is"

"My son, I know you are confused and feeling displeased, but hear me out. I can either free your soul and let it rest for eternity in my heavenly accommodation, or another offer that is 'different' if I do say so myself."

Feeling he has no other choice but to take him up on this mysterious offer, Paddy accepts it.

"ah sure go on then, what is it."

"Ok, my son, listen up. In another universe, there looms a great force of evil. No one knows of its origins or how it came into existence, but the world needs more forces willing to defeat it.

"would ya not just do it yourself no?"

"Well, you see, my son, I do not meddle with the lives of my creations. Even though that presence of evil, not created by me, continues to wreck havoc on that world, I must not interfere."

"so youre just going to let them die ya?"

"My son, I do not need to worry. Light can not exist without dark. Good can not exist without evil. When evil rises up, is it not good that comes up to rise against it? So I ask you this my son, would you be willing to become a hero for these people? Be the force that rises against it, and save this world?"

Paddy, has no sort of clue what is going on anymore. He contemplates this offer.

"and wha do it get in return? because im not fooking arsed really."

"How about this. If the world is cleared of the despair being spread upon it, i'll return you in the moment in time to where you died, as like nothing ever happened?"

"ah well sure i guess i accept so i do."

The hand lit up in heavenly light.

"Ok son, now before I send you on, you get one ability. 4 options await you, and you can pick any 1 out of them."

The hand points over to an area in the blank abyss.

"Fire, Water, Wind, and Earth. Which one would you like to aid you upon your journey?"

Paddy thought to himself for a few seconds.

"lad, im not going to lie, these are all shite, sure i have all these at home, can i have something else like?"

God pondered, he only really gave out these 4 basic abilities, but nonetheless he will answer this request.

"Well, there is one more thing. On your earth, gambling is a big past time, right. Do you partake in this activity, my son?"

"sure you know yourself like."

"Well look over there, would you, my son?"

The hand pointed over towards some sort of wheel spinner with several names written on it. Things like 'Superhuman Strength' 'Magic Mastery' or 'Light Speed' were some of the many things Paddy was seeing in front of him.

"Ok, my son, go give it a spin. May destiny treat you wisely."

So he did as he was told, and the thing went round and round, until it slowly lost its speed until it landed on one of the abilities.

Paddy could not see what it was, so he walked up closer until he saw what it said. Two words, written in bold across the wheel in deep black:

"NIGGA LAMP"

"ah lad, what is this"

God, curious about this certain ability, is trying to make heads or tails of what this power means, and who even put it there in the first place.

"My son, I am clueless as to how that got on there, or who put such phrase on to the divine wheel, but you are going to get the ability it landed on. But now is time to warp you into the world of which you will be tasked with saving. I hope you are ready for the tremendous journey you have ahead of you. If you save the world, I will be meeting you again, and we can sort out the rest of the deal. Now, good luck my son."

"grand so."

And with that, the hand made a gesture, and a portal appeared under his feet. As he fell, he felt his consciousness fade.
