Sweet's secret 3: The past of us

Lemuel's POV

After Earl shove into the swirling portal I falled unto the ground, when I opened my eyes, I saw a very damaged Temple or... Ruin. The sky was inky dark and notice the weird symbols on the damaged wall.

Soon Earl got out of his portal, he started gazing around the place.

I was really amaze that I have seen Earl in his true form and I never thought he that he's one of them. Well... That explains why his so catty.
Maybe I should ask him on how to transform like that.

"Earl-"

"Shh... I hear them. Come..."

I followed him in the ruin and I gaze around the place. I see some cracked statues, weird damaged paintings and banners. Everything is kinda old and we're like in a different dimension.

"Hey Earl... What is this place?" I ask.

"Uhm... The void? I don't know... This is one of my granddaugther's secret, I won't be shock if she didn't tell you any of this" he said and I sighed.

"She never told me anything... Same to you I guess"

"What's up with you and her anyway?"

"Oh well... Where do I start with this? Uhm... Well, she said that she knows me, which she did and told me some confusing stuff, like rewrite, the tree, the day of first smile, presents-"

"Wait... Rewrite?"

"Yeah... She said I have that power"

"So your the god that she was refering to. Are you like one of the eldest goddesses? Like me? Well... I mean I'm the first goddess after all"

"I don't know... I don't remember much of my past because of this rewrite and I think... I'm created after her?"

"Huh... She knows how to keep secrets properly-"

Suddenly Earl stops when he heard some footsteps nearby. I think those are the goddesses.

"Stay quite Lemuel" he whispers as I nod my head.

I sneaked a glance at the goddesses, I saw a wolf looking guy, a fox girl, a angel with weird appearance, and a butterfly boy. I think those are Axl, Angel, Jennifer and Nel. Then, a portal appeared. A girl with horn steps out frowning at her fellow goddesses.

"Who's that?" I ask.

"Cristine... Goddess of dignity and justice" Earl mutters.

"She looks like a unicorn"

"She is a unicorn..."

Cristine glared at them, especially Angel May. Suddenly a another goddess appeared, she has big wings and a glowing whip sword.

"Now who's that?" I ask.

"Dyna... I never thought I would see her this close, in flesh, I mean... In soul"
