(3rd POV)

Helel vision changed rapidly as she had closed her eyes she could not feel her father or Acheron's presence as if they were never there.

Helel knew otherwise she was simply in a state of isolation as she entered into her very heart.

Where the thing that had been haunting her dwelled as her father told Helel before she descended into herself.

All she witness was am empty space full of white sands and pillars that stretched as far as the eye can see into a blank yet dark sky.

A contrast to the Heaven she knew that's full of radiance embodying their father's light.

"Ohoho~... so the prodigal daughter of the lord graces me with her presence?" It's voice ringed behind her as Helel turned to gaze at the thing.

Or rather a reflection of herself though one can notice the golden eyes it has in contrast to her signature light blue eyes.

It sat there on a small pillar of stones just as white and bleak as their surrounding, empty of anything but themselves.

"Your days of disturbing me is over and to my service to the lord." Helel conjured her blade and raised it against the thing.

"Hahahaha! Oh this is rich... to think you of all people would say that... do you think your daddy is infallible?" It laughed and sneered at the end.

"Hold you tongue foul thing, I'll tolerate no insult to the lord." She drew her blade closer till it only inched on its neck.

"Oh, I'm scared whatever shall I do?" She was irritated at its nonchalant attitude, it doesn't seem to be afraid at all despite its life now under her to decide.

"Enough with your games! Do not think I will be swayed by your tricks you will die here and now." The thing mocked at her with its unperturbed smile.

"Kill me? Did you really think that is easy to do? Go ahead try me! You don't have the courage to even d-*Splat*." It's head was sliced into pieces.

Dark ichor spilled across the white sands around them. "Fool... as if I'll grant you mercy." Coldly she glared at its unmoving corpse.

"Father it's done, I did it!" Helel called but there was no reply that she received. "Father?" She called again confused.

"Aww... what's the matter can't call your daddy dearest?" Her eyes stared wide eyed in shock as the decapitated corpse stared back looking fine.

"No... how did you? That's impossible?" The thing laughed at her. "Not to me... you wanna know why?" It teased with its mocking grin.

"I am you and you are me... we are one in the same... two sides of the same coin ad your so called mighty daddy says to you all... which I must begrudgingly agree as the fool is right on that one." That angered Helel as she charged her with an array of spells.

Thunderous roars shook the vast white sands around her as she bombarded the blight with attacks that could render vast cosmic trees of life back into the depths of the void.

"Liar! I will not fall for your tricks! That isn't true! You aren't me! Never was and never will be!" The thing laugh without end.

Surviving each strike that she hurled at it, standing unfazed at her with its continued mockery of a smile.
