Rose Potter and the Heart of the Forge

Chapter 1 - A Blade Recast pt. 1

AN: Like my other fic Fate: Wayward Fae, please check it out as well, I will be changing certain dates when things happen. This is so I can align events and even make the technologies mentioned make sense. I will also be changing a lot of things even some of the characters so hope you guys understand. This will be a major AU and the other routes of this series will be AU of this major AU as well.

Note: If you just started reading this fic and you read the other fics from the Rose Potter and the Unlimited Blade Routes Series you may skip the intro part as it's just the same.

Story 1: Rose Potter and the Heart of the Forge

____________________________________________________________

Intro

A dying god quietly observes a myriad of dimensions parallel to each other. These worlds' realities while similar in origin to the ones he governed, have thrived without gods for a while now. These deities were replaced by two greater wills, the will of the planet called Gaia and the collective will of humanity called Alaya. Unfortunately, all these realities lead towards one point. With the eventual self-destruction of humanity's will and Gaia's ley lines bleeding grain. The planet's final act was a call for the purge of the planet.

Heeding the call were the solar system's Ultimate Ones, later, they will be given the title Aristoteles. With one of them already on the planet, somewhere in South America, and the others on the way, the end of humanity is almost a certainty. However, he did observe that there's always that one individual who retains their humanity despite the environment being toxic to their kind.

Sighing with sadness at the fate of these dimensions he had observed and how it parallels the potential future of the ones he governed.

"Well, I guess no one will complain if I do this and who would stop me?" The dying god started accumulating its divinity to exert its will upon the greater reality just before the call of the void got too strong.

"Hmm.. that looks interesting" A voice suddenly opines behind the god.

'Oh, someone might actually be able to stop me if I do this' thought the god realizing who the voice belonged to. 'or maybe not, this being lives off entertainment he might even be able to acquiesce to a few of my requests ones I've sufficiently piqued his interest.'

"Greetings, Kaleidoscope." The god said turning to the infamous dimension hopper. "Might you listen to a dying god's last request?"

The god then explained how he plans to give mankind from the dimensions that he governed another source of hope for when the eventuality of fate comes knocking, and darkness, death, and destruction are the only things it brings. The god further explains how it plans to transplant and reincarnate certain individuals from different timelines of the dying reality into parallel singular points with similar beginnings but diverges into differing routes.

After convincing Zelretch of his plan and further asking for assistance to ease the beginnings of some of the eventual reincarnations, the god, exercising its authority as a major divine being proceeds to warp the greater reality and subverting it to its will. With that last miracle, the god smiles and welcomes its end. For the only thing it had left was its love for humanity and a great hope that the minor change it created would bloom into something great. For what is a small ripple against fate if it has the potential to cascade into a tsunami that defies it?
