None of the six knew who they shared their thoughts with; a Vlad of the past, present, future, or simply with Vlad, the subconsciousness for which time never passed. Nevertheless they knew their thoughts reached it, and its reached them.
A powerful aura tore through the six spaces as it merged them all into one, the six facing the being together.
"Hello."
The ancient voice sent a wave of immense comfort through the six, seeking no assuage despite the fatigue in its tone. An invisible and delicate fabric was spread across the setting they were now in, confusion of the unknown being their emotion.
The quietude was deafening as the six could sense the horrors of the universe to be hidden there. Yet there was a soothing presence, perhaps belonging to the entity
The entity... who was it? What was it?
The six each felt something for the entity, none which was positive nor negative despite what perceptions thought.
The six remained still, holding onto those silent sentiments. The entity's notions resonated softly in the dimension; they gained information which was anything but intuitive, for such phenomenon happened with time and there time didn't exist. Perhaps time really was just a vague concept; Here information always remained as it was but all consciousness did not remember everything. Hence learning again was not a change in information, only recognising what is. But this information wasn't of the world and this existence's happenings didn't matter; it was a cloud accessible to the past, present, future and beyond and before.
The trials of the six were never meant to test the six, or at least not directly; it now enabled realisation to come to Vlad.
His thoughts echoed.
"You six...
"In the future you will have to destroy this rage. My children are of emotions and can do nothing to an emotion, and Triyeal's have no influence as they are of thoughts. You, however, are of equilibrium. Of pure truth, of the One, of that which is all pervasive.
Stunned silence echoed. Sousconic's softness was now dear to them and it saddened them to see it bear such great responsibility.
"Rage has been making fear and hatred along with it. The universe's most destructive, powerful and blind emotion are in Vlad. However the bond of the six resides in each of you and the bond of the six is what you need to defeat this. The energy of the lands, of unity, of memories and of countless others shall help you.
"Always remain together. A dimension is at stake. One that defines all.
"One that is."
A sense of unity and the bond of nature erupted among the six, each resonating its own note in one key, even the being. They were one in pain, one in anger, one in trauma, one is courage and a part of the one causing the state of being.
They were no longer beings; only souls. That was what they ever had been, but the concept of time calls for change. One can never return to the past, but one can return to its state.
"I know that I must be destroyed... in time, for equilibrium to come, and I am not afraid of that. Something within me shall be released, but what? What is it, and why with time?"
"Time is needed to create the circumstance, Vlad." Zindel's thought reverberated softly across the space, though it did not answer the being's question.
"I know, but what is it that you keep from me?"
Every Shadow was motionless, unsure of what was to be said. Only one knew the notion for what it was, one knew what it was.
