Lord Shadow

Borgan look at him and Azief don"t know whether he was mistaken or not, but he could swear he saw Borgan smiling at him before the Etherna waved his hand and then the memory stopped there.

Azief then opens up his eyes and he falls down into the tenth step like a broken kite. He managed to float at the very end and he landed slowly onto the step

He closes his eyes and take a few deep breaths. His heart is beating furiously and it take him a while before he could clam his beating heart.

He took a deep breath and then he slowly gets up.

"What the h.e.l.l?" he thought to himself.

"So, the Thirteen Steps was originally built by the Etherna race? But why?" Azief thinks again.

Form what he could see the Eterna seems weak at the time and from the words he heard that one of the Etherna said, his Etherna race is in trouble.

That is easy enough to deduce.

Is that the last years of the Etherna race? Is that the last years of the destruction of the Etherna race.

Azief had always search traces for the ancient race of Etherna. He even believed that the ring, the Eternal rings belongs to the Etherna race.

Azief sighed.

He did not think that the power of the Soul Law could made him be able to seek the origin of the creation of the Stairway by relying on cause and effect of Karma.

But surprisingly it could

The Souls remains. And it remains in the Supreme Dimension even after they were destroyed.

They slumber without purpose but their will, their dissatisfaction lingers and as they linger, they see all that had happened.

But because they are no longer alive, they have no thoughts, no direction and no purpose.

Azief by using the power of the Soul Law had managed to see beyond the lives of the living beings that lives in this Universe but go past it, to see it through the souls that no longer have nay lives.

That is the only way he could have seen so far back in Time. The Eterna is said to be destroyed in the beginning of time.

The Souls wanted to be remembered even when they themselves do not remember.

 And each soul has a story of their own.

Like a writer that have created a good story, they wanted the story to be told, wanted it to be remembered.

Azief close his eyes, calm down his heart, stabilize his power and then he opens his eyes. In his right eye, is the heavenly paradises where all the souls that have no purpose was pacified and slowly nourished.

There are also souls of people that he had killed in the past inside the Heavenly Paradises in his right eye.

Inside his left eye however is the scene of h.e.l.l realms with fires and brimstones, pain and tragedy and all kinds of infernal tortures, grinding away sinful souls.

Right eye contains the infinites abodes of heavenly paradise and the left eyes contains the h.e.l.lish Underworld of infinite torments

In the right eye, contains hope for salvation and reincarnation. And in his left eyes is hope for redemption and a chance to start anew for the souls.

Azief remembers the Wheels of Rebirth and he found that he had some new ideas after comprehending the Soul Law Body.

He no longer has to cut souls that was full of resentment as he embraces it all. There are souls in both of his eyes.

His entire body right now like a vast universe that could contain a whole realm inside it. Azief then look at the eleventh steps.

He had felt the surge of energy around him rising up and he quickly took it under control.

He could see the instability of the Supreme Dimension right now. It almost felt like the moment he claims all thirteen Laws body; this Supreme Dimension would cease to exist.

He felt this feeling strongly, like a premonition. And as he looked at the eleventh steps, he hesitated.

Not because he is afraid of the surges of energy that would occur or the possible collapse of the Supreme Dimension but the possibility that he is now being controlled.

Being guided and being controlled is something different.

He had no problem being guided by people. If those people had good intention for him in guiding him, he would surely repay them well in the future when he could

There was such person like Alsurt and Azul. But, if he is being controlled, that is not something he could accept.

suddenly that memory of when he was in the steps and felt something on his body become clear.

Could it be?

He thought to himself.

He had claim the soul Law body so now his comprehension of Karma, Destiny and Fate had increased and he seem to understand a lot of things now then remembers the memory he saw.

The Eterna dying. the Etherna trying to build the stairway.

And the smile that Borgan had showed him and something inside his mind gave him the answer and his face becomes serious.

"Tying karma" he muttered to himself.

By now, there is no longer any souls around the Supreme Dimension and its surrounding dead and barren star system.

All of them had entered into his right and left eyes. And then he wanted to turn back. He takes a step before he suddenly stops.

Then Azief thinks again. And after r awhile he shakes his head

"No, that"s not right" And then a smile blooms on his face. There is a confident smile on his face. And then he remembered Borgan smiling at him once again and he too smiles

"Hmm. Fine. I guess if you all betted in me, I think I should also be confident in betting in myself. What is life anyway! HAHAHA!" He laughed unrestrainedly as he took a step toward the eleventh steps and the tenth steps crumbles.

Azief now felt it. A tugging. It is something that is tugging him at the soul. It was subtle but it is there. Azief senses has grown even more powerful.

He could feel he is connected to many things. He just didn"t have enough power to trace these connections and to see what is tugging at his soul.

The Divine Law Body waited for him on the eleventh step. There is sound of chanting that seems to echoes and reverberate with the same frequency and vibration of the Universe.

It was a song, melody that seems to echoes from the beginning of time and only now, it could be heard again.

Azief does not recognize the words and does not know what the song means but the song soothes his heart and made hi focused even more.

Azief could see the many cracks on the eleventh step.

All kinds of Universals and Omniversal powers of Laws and Concepts seems to be borne out of nothingness before it spirals out of control and once again enter into the Void of Nothingness.

It was borne because of the Divine power of the Law Body of the Divine but it was also destroyed because of the pressure that comes out from the Divine Law Body.

It was like the pressure from the Divine Law Body squeeze out Laws and Concept from the Supreme Dimension.

Squeeze it out and then the moment it come out because of the powerful pressure it was used to pressure it out, it spirals and return back into nothingness.

And Azief senses that Great Will from his Divine Law Body

The entire eleventh step is a realm for the Divines.

It is filled with pure Divine aura and power. It spread out all over the Sealed Universe. And now with the other step no longer existed, the become even more rampant, enveloping the whole universe of the Sealed Dimension to be enveloped by its divine power.

His Divine Power surges up from the top of its head to the unknown beyond the outside of this Sealed Universe

Azief took a glance and then rush forward.

His mind willed it and the area, s.p.a.ce and time around him distorted as he appears infinitely close to his Law Body in just mere seconds, like they were not separated by a million miles" distance at all.

He arrived in this vast realm of the Divine to appear in front of the Divine Law Body.
