Stellaria the beginning

The first two meet

Rizure and Steven's paths crossed in a world on the brink of unraveling. The Nexus, though missing , had left ripples in reality, distorting the fabric of existence. Strange anomalies began to appear—time loops, ghostly apparitions, and places where the laws of physics no longer applied. Amidst this chaos, two beings walked different roads—Rizure, the superhuman boy forged by the Nexus, and Steven, the reluctant Reaper, both seeking to make sense of their new identities.

Rizure, once Bradley, had been wandering the world alone, grappling with the immense power that now coursed through him. With a mere thought, he could bend reality, yet he felt disconnected, haunted by memories of a life that no longer fit him. He had used his powers to help those in need, reshaping cities and saving lives, but the more he did, the more the world seemed to push back against him, as if reality itself was rebelling against his interference.

Steven, meanwhile, had fully embraced his role as the Reaper, guiding souls to the afterlife with compassion. But as the anomalies grew more frequent, he began to encounter souls trapped between life and death, unable to move on. He sensed a disturbance in the balance of life, something beyond his control. It was then that Death himself appeared to Steven with a cryptic message.

"The balance of reality is at stake," Death intoned. "There is another like you, a being of power who walks the earth. Find him, for together, you may restore what has been lost."

Following Death's guidance, Steven sought out this mysterious being. His search led him to a city twisted by the Nexus's lingering effects—a place where buildings floated in the air, and time itself seemed fractured. In the heart of this chaos, he found Rizure, standing atop a crumbling skyscraper, his eyes glowing with the energy that flowed through him.

At first, the two were wary of each other, their powers clashing in an instant as they met. Rizure, still adjusting to his god-like abilities, saw Steven as a potential threat, someone sent to stop him from helping the world as he saw fit. Steven, on the other hand, sensed the imbalance in Rizure's power, knowing that while Rizure meant well, his actions were tearing the fabric of reality apart.

But as they fought, something strange happened. They realized that their powers were not in opposition, but rather complementary. Rizure could shape reality, but Steven could see the delicate threads that held it together—the balance between life and death, chaos and order.

"You're trying to fix things," Steven said, lowering his scythe, "but you're only making it worse. The world is more fragile than you think."

Rizure paused, his glowing eyes narrowing. "I just want to help. I didn't ask for this power, but I can't just stand by and do nothing."

"I know what that's like," Steven replied, his voice tinged with sadness. "But sometimes, we can't do it alone."

In that moment, they saw the truth in each other. Both were boys who had been thrust into roles they didn't ask for—Rizure, a superhuman burdened with the power to reshape reality, and Steven, a kind-hearted teenager turned Reaper. They were two sides of the same coin, each struggling to find their place in a world that had changed them irrevocably.

Realizing that they needed each other, Rizure and Steven agreed to join forces. They formed a team, one that could confront the anomalies and restore balance to the world. Rizure would use his power to repair the fractures in reality, but only under Steven's guidance, ensuring that the natural order was respected.

Together, they traveled from city to city, each a new challenge that tested their abilities. Rizure's power reshaped the broken pieces of reality, while Steven guided lost souls, ensuring they found peace. Over time, they learned to trust each other, forming a bond that was stronger than the forces threatening the world.

Their journey was far from easy. They faced powerful enemies—beings who sought to exploit the chaos for their gain, ancient forces awakened by the Nexus's destruction, and even their own inner demons. But together, Rizure and Steven found a balance between their powers, a harmony that allowed them to accomplish what neither could have done alone.

In the end, they were no longer just a superhuman and a Reaper. They were a team—a force of both creation and compassion, life and death. And with their combined strength, they became the guardians of a new reality, one where their powers would be used not to control,
