Tales From Babalangion

A Tale of Darkness

All you current and future readers have been reading this for a while, meaning you must be engrossed. By what I may never know, the characters, the stories, the lore perhaps? Yes, while not as deep as most books or games, I think my little tellings of this world are ripe with background. As seen in the conclusion of our dear friend Ophelia and her tragic end...the afterlife of the worlds contained in Library of Worlds may be a bit different then this worlds many versions of life after death. We have your classic Heaven and Hell, reincarnation, some say nothing comes and we simply just end. But I digress, I am not here to debate religion, I'm here to give answers, something I bet the readers who have stuck with it desperately want. Without further ado, lets get to it.

The fall of the Chaos Sage was cataclysmic, when Rathabur slayed his father the pulse of power shook the infinite worlds as The Chaos Sage's power left his body and rooted itself in his child. However, a mere transfer of power was not all that occurred. In the small remains of the void The Chaos Sage had left unchanged, the death of the sage created a new entity, a being somehow born and made not of something that existed, but raised by the impossibility of the all-powerful Chaos Sage's death. A being that personified the very absence of existence, The All-Void. The All-Void was born in a infinite second, bursting to life in and instant as they drew breath, or rather, not breath but darkness. The All-Void was scared, confused. Where was it? What was it? Who had created it and why? The All-Void sought answers, and answers it had found. It watched through a crack in reality into the Library of Worlds as Lore and Elderion confronted and banished their brother out of fear for their own immortal lives. The All-Void watched this and without knowing why, they followed Rathabur into his prison. No existing matter or magic being able to deter this primal force that should never have awoken. It watched as Rathabur seethed alone in agony and rage, for years unseen or unknown as Rathabur voiced his rage as he waited. But The All-Void also saw how one day Rathabur found while bound in his prison of hardened reality, his influence was uncontainable and his will seeped into many worlds, drawing lone souls from countless worlds from all over to serve him, Belial, Balo, the Anmai, Tina who had became Teke, all from different Exo-Worlds with one thing in common, they now bowed to the one they had referred to as "The Great Fear". The All-Void watched them all, saw past their masks and into their stories, saw the reasons for Balo's rage and saw Belials plans. Even Teke's love for Rathabur, and in a twisted sense, The All-Void had begun to see these wayward souls as their family. They became attached, so when the company Reali-Tech's T-540 killed Teke, Rathabur was not the only one enraged. The All-Void seethed as they reflected, they had freed Rathabur, married, just for some pitiful mortals to kill her. The All-Void chose then and there to get revenge. They shedded their nature and created a proxy body. A horrifying visage with skin covered in black cracks that oozed black pus, arms and legs that ressembled entertwined, oily black cords and gloves that were hole riddled, the holes not revealing any skin but rather empty darkness. Their face held empty eyes and their mouth was lined with flat white teeth, a see of ivory like a demonic cartoon character that escaped the world of fiction and stepped into reality. They took on a new name, Malumbrix, Malumbrix was no longer a being of pure nonexistence, they had a body and in this act, they had gone beyond even the boundless power they held then. They sought out the heads of Reali-Tech and exacted their revenge. At first it was systematic, without emotion as they swiftly killed them. But soon...their killing became almost ritualistic as their body felt the sensations of flesh, their flat teeth soon curved into a smile as their claws, once hands rended flesh and their teeth flatly crushed bones and flesh. Soon their form was covered in the dust and viscera of the ones who had sent a machine to kill one of the ones he loved. Unfortunately even the mightiest may fall to hubris, by limiting themselves to this proxy body they had made themselves a target for the very ones they sought to avenge. Once Rathabur caught wind of this new god he made haste in subduing them. Malumbrix was confused, why was the one's he had watched over for so long betraying him. Rathabur took advantage of his weakened state and slayed Malumbrix. But Rathabur made a mistake...you can't kill a god. Rathabur merely allowed Malumbrix to return to his full power, as The All-Void. But The All-Void did not retaliate at once, he had na idea and decided to unleash poetic justice. He would do the same as what Rathabur has done and will gather allies to combat him and his forces. Mighty heroes who meet their end in their worlds, heroes who lived their life fighting for their ideals and justice. Good beating evil...it would make betraying them once the day is won all the more sweet. For though, The All-Void waits in the space where nothing exists or ever will exist. Drawing the misguided souls of heroes to a special realm he has created to keep his champions until the day his forces are great enough to take on Rathabur's army of terror. In fact...he is almost ready.
