Demon Castle <Delsgade>

[Bloodedge]

Sin continued to prove herself as an enjoyable experience. In the history of both this world and the last, rare was it for the Prime Destroyer to believe he'd been missing out on something, but this was such a case. He plunged into her body across infinite possibilities, feeling every last one with his own body... twice. In all these possibilities, there wasn't a single bad experience for the male. Each possible angle and velocity of every thrust was nothing short of blissful─ as was every ejaculation that occurred.

The height of pleasure may have been reached for now, but there was always more. Was Sin broken? Well, something being broken could only be known as such when it was tested once more. Both versions of Anos would have purpose in doing so. At Sin's fore, one Anos laced the fingers of one hand through her hair to keep her head lifted. At the same time, the other reached out to grab her by the wrists. "Nothing to say? I'll never figure out if I'm doing this 'dam' thing properly at this rate~" the Anos behind Sin teased. Each magical effect Anos had applied to the woman was dispelled at once, from the subjugation to the chains that bound her. She'd be given her sight and freedom of movement back, all to see the one Anos holding her head in front of his dripping phallus. In the meantime, the first Anos used his hold of her wrists as leverage to pull himself in for further collisions with her backside. The womb of a Creator was something he found to be addictive once visited, so his leave of it was not assured quite yet. No, he was still pummeling away a thousand times over, still spewing the fruit of his loins constantly, still watching the reddening of her backside be renewed with every passing second as a river of white that flowed out continued to be fueled.

[Apollymi]

It was likely good that Anos was pleased by his experience. Sin couldn't really see herself accepting anyone else after having him in the way she currently did. Truly, eternity just became something of a game and she was more than willing to play it. Speaking of playing, it seemed that Anos was ready to change their game of choice at the moment. He'd plunged into her body more times in the last few hours than she'd experienced in the entirety of her fourteen thousand years of life. Still he did not truly stop. Instead he grabbed for her wrists as she recovered from the forward Anos' expulsion.

Ah... the magic around her was being undone, here and now she could see again and came face to face with the phallus of her new husband dripping. Her body started to metabolize again and she could feel herself brimming with energy. Ah, and her head was being held, giving tension across her scalp and such an interesting amount of sensation. She liked that. Anos' teasing words were something else entirely but she'd deal with them now. "I mean the point is to divert and release flowing rivers. I do not know if any other would have committed to the activity in such a way. But I am fairly certain it counts as successful~" she mused. In the same moment, of her own volition she'd take the time to lick the dripping head directly before her. It was taken as an offering and then she exhaled, in that moment she caused the return of air density to the Void. The area around Delsgade gained atmosphere.

Ah, but he still wasn't quite done yet. Holding her by the arms he continued to ram himself into the very end of her being. She could do nothing but like the attention of an itch being scratched that had never before been reached. He was pummeling her what felt like a thousand times over. The hearts in her eyes pulsed very thrust and the stars dotting her vision were spread across the skies of the Void as the energy passed through her person. What else was left? What else would be created this day? As he continued her body convulsed around his constant movements, she brought forth light. Two trees sprouted along lands that increased one of gold and one of silver grew to adulthood with each passing thrust and would bring light to endless darkness. The whole of Delsgade became a functional world unto itself as a Creator was given all she needed to create. Fruit bearing trees, small animals to move across the land. Everything was made... except a child, she didn't want another of those just yet.

[Bloodedge]

Apparently, Anos had managed to successfully utilize a dam of sorts, despite his every effort to do the opposite. Perhaps the result of effort from Anos Voldigoad was accomplishing even things he didn't set out to do? Given his history, it was a possibility. Successful or otherwise, Anos had undoubtedly accomplished all he wished, and more. Releasing Sin from the bindings of her soul and continuing his efforts had some immediate payouts that he could sense far and wide. She breathed, and there was air within the endless vacuum. She saw stars, so all who inhabited the Void could now look out and see the glimmers in a perpetual night sky.

Even the excess mana was not put to waste in any way. Some of those Creators could have been expected to burn it all away on their existing constructs, but in Sin's case, new life was spawned. Anos sensed life, flora and fauna not previously manifested in the Void. "Ho? Others of your kind would have used that additional energy to disturb the balance in existing creations. This arrangement is getting better every time you make a decision," Anos admitted, thinking of a particular Creator whom he'd blame for a special type of curse no demon could take credit for.

It could be said that a marriage had been properly consummated numerous times over this day. Anos doubted he could be kept from his new queen for very long, but for now... the Anos ahead of Sin faded into nothingness. The other, however, decided to tug on her wrists and bring her closer to himself. This movement wouldn't be halted until they were front-to-back, torso-to-torso. The thrusting may have been over, but there was little point to separating physically right away. "You've done a lot of redecorating. For the famed Heart of Genesis, it should be expected." While he spoke, Anos held the Demon Queen against his fore. Every word was delivered almost directly into her ear as one arm hooked around her middle torso. "I wonder what manner of creature I'm sensing outside. Should we have a look for ourselves, or are you hiding a secret?"

[Apollymi]

At the end of a rather vigorous consummation, the Void was turning into a much more habitable place. Though it wasn't a fully conscious set of thoughts, Sin had indeed created things missing from this space with the excess mana she was given and the added spice of Mystery her own creations had been missing since the last world. It was quite relieving to do such a thing with impunity, and as such her body seemed a great deal lighter. Anos, took note of all she'd done and decided to comment upon it. He had nothing but compliments to offer of her creative choices and Sin found herself smiling about it and explaining her perspective. "To over stimulate an existing creation will only stifle its development. I would not add directly to something which can grow itself, with a different new thing beside it. Creation is a spark, the rest should be left to take the shape that feels most natural to it," she stated. Such was how flora and fauna now existed in this land. She honestly felt things should grow and change based on their own individual experiences so after making something it was generally against her own logic to interfere with it directly.

The Anos before Sin, faded from sight soon after the end of this bout of creation. But the one behind her pulled her wrist, making her stand her back to his fore, while he remained buried within her. His whispered words made her shiver. Though they'd finished for now. She imagined her curiosities wouldn't wait too long for her next experience. If this was to be taken as only the beginning, she had nothing but the surest future of happiness ahead of her. In noting her redecorating he used a title she'd was sure she'd not heard since reaching adulthood. Her face flushed immediately at the utterance. "I am certain no one has called me that since the end of the old world," she said softly. That had to be about fourteen thousand years give or take a few. "I only added what was missing. It was not fully conscious decisions, some were a bit more whimsically induced," she confessed. "We can have a look if you like... I have no secrets and it's been a while since I looked upon such a widescale creation caused by me~" she uttered. How nice it was to be pressed against this man, his member still lodged within herself. It was the most pleasant experience of her life so far and she wouldn't have traded it for anything. It was quite surprising, she'd not known this would happen. She'd never seen this man in her visions of the future before she gave up her sight. Given that, she also did not really know what all she'd created outside...

[Bloodedge]

Sin spoke truths of the world which others like her former self could have been better off understanding. Many times, he'd seen overinvestment in the works of Creators. Never was the end-result of excessive influence by Creators a positive thing. It always could have been, but that would have required the presence of Destroyers in the same world... but it seemed one of the original Creators simply couldn't accept that. "You're obviously among the few who believe that. Others are happy to make something, then ruin it by stifling its growth. For all that, my kind should have been around to get rid of the scrap."

The two were conversing as normal, but none of Anos' movements belied a casual conversation. Though he no longer moved within her, that hand that reached around Sin's middle torso cupped and squeezed her breast in a surprisingly casual manner. Did Anos intend to start their debauchery anew? Well... no. He kept conversing normally, and even seemed interested in moving on to their sightseeing. Many things were created of Sin's essence and his own mana this day, but what were they all? That was certainly worth figuring out. Sin seemed interested in having a look as well, though not before acknowledging her proper title as something old and... embarrassing? "That's a shame. Well... as long as no one else considers themselves worthy of the title, I guess it's fine if I'm the first you've heard it from this cycle. Though others should know there is only one real Creator left presently. Maybe that will change one day... but it isn't the case now."

Both were of a mind to see creation first-hand, and Anos in particular wondered what all had become of his old castle. There had never been something solid to look at within the Void. Now that there was, what better way was there to appreciate such things than with the one who caused them? Slowly but surely, Anos removed himself from the core of Sin. The motion he chose was somewhat teasing in nature, done as a series of conscious throbs occurred in his member. "I wonder if the new life I'm sensing is for the best. The Void has never been friendly to consciousnesses appearing within it, but I expect better of things that come from you."

[Apollymi]

According to Anos, there was a truth spoken by Sin that her kind could have used. He stated his ideation that overinfluence on the part of Creators was indeed a bad thing, and that without his ilk around to balance the scales, so to speak, only negatives came from such overinvestment. "We were always told of balance and the necessity of culling along with creation. In the absence of destruction a careful approach became necessary, and you are quite right... it never turned out well," she said with a smirk. In her time as the Mother of the Gods, Ki had seen plenty of wayward issues with overt creation. Such was why she never really opposed to humanity rising up against the creations of their supposed Gods. Someone had to balance out the equations and they were not necessarily equipped to do it themselves.

Ah, but equipped wasn't something that Anos needed to concern himself with. Here and now he was equipped with hands which he used to molest Sin in a most casual manner. That reddened face caused by the utterance of a long forgotten title, would not fade as her bosom was casually molested while the spoke. Ah, but she also couldn't claim not to like it. She didn't pull away or even seem like she was in much of a rush to separate them. Instead her body relaxed against his, opening the space around herself to give him more freedom of movement for his hands. "I can't say I mind you saying such a thing, I quite like it... to be honest. And while I doubt anyone else could even claim it as a title presently, I wouldn't begrudge someone who earned it," she stated honestly. Oh what an interesting sticking point, Sin formerly Ki was a Creator of the old world, she knew the old would eventually be replaced by the new, her only issue, was that the new filled the void left by their predecessors in grand fashion, not in a manner which could be considered lesser.

And that strangely didn't matter. It appeared that both Sin and Anos planned to actually go and view these new creations, regardless of the fact that their bodies were currently entwined and relaxed against each other in a way that would imply an easy renewal of their most recent activities. Given this Anos began to extract himself from Sin's depths, in so doing she felt teasing throbs with every bit he managed. Her own body responded in kind, though the teasing nature was still present. Apparently, Anos wondered if life was for the best considering the void was not a kind place, though he held a certain faith in Sin's abilities. "I am hardly capable of creating something that would crumble, even in the Void. That might be a bit too much, everything has the opportunity to thrive, if they take it... yes that is a much better explanation of it..." she mused seeming to think back on her own creations with a bit more critique than most would be capable of. "No matter, with their contributor being so very robust, I am sure any life now present will be worth watching grow~" she teased just a tad. Her own experiences with new life had always been so interesting and whenever they actually separated she'd don her clothing once more, though admittedly there was a certain emptiness she wouldn't deal with for very long within her being. And with that they could go look upon all that Sin had created as they consummated their marriage.

[Bloodedge]

"Oh? You were told? I think some of you should have been told twice," Anos asserted. However many times Creators were taught balance in the world, it obviously hadn't properly stuck with many of them. It was of no consequence to Anos himself, of course, but it remained a shame that one faction of gods had fallen so low while the other ascended amidst infinite nothingness. "I may have picked you up at the right time. The others remaining may have poisoned you by the next cycle," he stated.

It remained a thing of wonder why Ki had chosen to join the Demon King so easily. For some time yet, Anos would continue being curious about her choices. Curious though he may be, however, he would never question the goodness of this decision. Even amidst purposeless molestation, there Sin was, becoming more open to his advances by the moment. The one concern he had was the foolish notion that the goddess' title could be usurped at all. "You think someone could earn it? I've been around enough cycles to think it's an impossible feat. Like mine, your title is of a rare type that can never be claimed a second time."

Moments between these two seemed to never flow backwards in development. Even as he teased her interior during removal, she reciprocated the action. It was going to be one hell of an eternity, he thought. In such a casual manner, they were conversing about the quality of Sin's creations even within the Void. Both would soon be dressed and ready to depart, while Sin commented on the upcoming growth of her creations. Stepping forward, Anos snickered. "I'm quite sure myself. If my presence didn't destroy half of what could have been, I think we would have already seen some interesting growth. So... let's step out. Show me what you've managed to do after feeling the true worth of your own power."

[Apollymi]

"People hear what they want to hear, being told multiple times wouldn't have helped the message sink in any better..." she stated plainly. Of the pair of them, Anu was less likely to hear their mother's words about creation and its long term progress, but he'd also always seemed a bit less receptive overall. According to Anos, he might have picked her up at the right time, as the others may have poisoned her over the next part of her lifetime. "Poisoned? I'm fairly certain I am above such things... Though, I am quite happy you found me when you did~" she said about that potential. She'd seen herself in the future as she was without any real difference in her being. Given this she was certain there were only a few ways in which her personality could have been warped.

Beyond this point she found herself steadily open to Anos' advances. She writhed against his body in a manner most titilating while he molested her. Never at all regretting the decision she'd made this day in either of her forms. It was probably a combination of things which lead to Ki accepting Anos and becoming Sin. Not the least of these was her pre-existing interest in the Prime Destroyer. One could have said that Ki the former Queen of the Gods maintained a fanatical romantic interest in Anos, which did not seem to go anywhere even after he disappeared from the world. Speaking of his title, apparently they both possessed titles that simply could not belong to others. That news was interesting, but also rather amusing as a thing which further connected the now paired deities. "Well most can be. Titles can be passed around at various intervals. It is interesting mine cannot..." she mentioned with a small smirk coming to her face. That would likely be something very upsetting to the girl who'd managed to become 'Queen of Heaven' in the most ridiculous fashion.

Even so, they would only move forward, both in flirting and teasing they seemed to rather easily progress. Sin couldn't deny this being a good thing for her, and even as they properly dressed to head out, it seemed they were only a second or two away from another interesting moment. According to Anos his presence alone had destroyed half of what could have been, though he didn't deny her capaibilities in any way. Instead he found himself content to take her along as they adventured outwards to see this creation so they headed out of the castle. "Destroyed half just by being here, that's kind of exciting~" she mused. Ah, yes, just beneath the surface, something rather interesting about Sin's appreciation of Anos. "I'd be happy to be the first to show you what I made~" she mentioned and out they would go. The first thing of great notice, would be the light. No longer was this a space of complete darkness and oppressive vastness. There were present, two trees, one of gold and one of silver giving off light. The golden one currently quite bright and the silver one seemingly waiting to take over the next cycle, so to speak. There was grass now, and plants and flowing waters. The landscape itself was quite interestingly detailed. "Light, air, water and plants.... that is a pretty good start."

[Bloodedge]

Anos could only truly agree with one thing. Based on what he'd seen of Anu, that one would never have gotten the point. He'd seen the children of Anu and Ki as well, and that group... he never had much hope for as a unit. "There are some ways. Erasing the history of those who failed their duties is always possible. At least, it could have been," Anos rambled. He personally could have deleted all events that resulted in the current uselessness of Anu. However... "But, doing that would have been detrimental to my own future. I do wonder if a happier marriage to that Anu would have been a proper impediment to me," he mused.

Moving on to matters of titles unattainable, Sin took interest in the uniqueness of her own. Anos knew there was one she possessed in that realm of Celestia, or at least... one Ki used to possess. Which one of those children did that pitiful Creator give his superior's inheritance away to again? He couldn't even remember, but he doubted it was a worthwhile exchange. Regardless, it didn't seem to matter at all now. The current Queen of Heaven could more easily be called Queen of Nothing.

Speaking of nothingness, there was a distinct lack of it in this corner of the Void presently. Anos joined Sin in stepping outside of Delsgade, a brow quirked over the alleged excitement found in his destruction. "Exciting? It's only normal. When our kinds meet, the result is uniform creation and destruction. The only thing that can come of that is those other creatures who determine the laws of reality in the material world." Anos' explanation was given as a matter of fact, and he moved on from it without a hitch. Random knowledge was spewed and immediately tossed aside as he took in the new light around Delsgade. Those trees sparked great interest, just as the stars and atmosphere did. "H'oh? What is that, one as the sun and one as the moon? I think your mother would be proud for you replacing them with trees. She always had a thing for her plants," he stated while something very peculiar caught his eye. Of the wildlife spawned, there was a particular creature staring at Anos from afar. It was quite small, almost feline in appearance with some canine features. In its forehead was a gemstone the color of its creator's eyes, and its own eyes mimicked the gem's glow. "Hmm. It looks like one of your new children has taken an interest in me. Do I get to see a war caused by jealousy on the night of our wedding?"

[Apollymi]

Anos was full of interesting information. It had apparently been possible for him to erase the past failures of other entities. That was an interesting thing to note, but when on to explain that he hadn't done so upon his arrival because it worked better for him this way. He also seemed to harbor a bit of curiosity about whether or not a happier marriage between Anu and Ki would have resulted in him having difficulty in attaining his queen. Sin gave it a bit of thought and came to a singular conclusion, "It might not have caused so great an issue for you," she said almost cryptically. Of course, it wasn't really her intention to be coy, she simply wasn't the type to out herself as the biggest fan of the Prime Destroyer in the history of such a thing being a word. The uniqueness of Sin's title as the Heart of Genesis, was likely something that could only have caused her greater pride. She would not dwell on this, but only gain a strange sense of smugness knowing that there were was at least some justice still left in the world, that what was truly hers to have could not be taken from her in underhanded dealings. She maintained hope that eventually all such wrongs would be righted, and as such she was content to continue on with her life as it was now...

Now she found her world to be something full and ever growing, it was much what she wanted out of life in the first place. Complete with that, came a person who had information and other such things on offer which were previously things unknown to her. What did he have to say, Destroyers and Creators had a certain outcome when they met in such a way and it was the birth of the type of being who determined the laws of reality in the material world. Such a thing had been done? The only thing she could think of was... "Oh my!" her face reddened immediately by the implication alone. "I am far too surprised by that information. I did not know that they held such interests... well I did know about the tender of the gardens but..." that low little mumble became only a gentle chuckle. How could she do anything other than appreciate what came from one of the great works of what the Fae even referred to as their Great Creator. "The references for them make so much more sense now..." she thought all but astounded.

So astounded in fact, that she'd all but lost other avenues of thought. Here and now there was talk of the trees she'd created for the sake of light in this Void. She looked at them and nodded her head in agreement. "Yes, they are exactly as that... I thought they'd be a nice touch and capable of serving multiple purposes. Mother would have definitely enjoyed them, who knows they might still get the opportunity~" she mentioned. The trees themselves would flower and bear fruit. It was technically possible to plant others of this if other lands appeared and the food from them would be rather tasty and full of nutrients, for whoever decided to be brave enough to taste them. Moving on from that there was this small creature which looked rather interesting and it did indeed seem to have taken up quite the interest in Anos. Funnily enough, Sin would only scoff at the notion of jealousy appearing in the wake of such an adorable thing... "Of course not! I would never start a war of jealousy, I'm above such a petty impluse. To be honest it is quite cute, and definitely has good taste. Besides, it has quite a few of my traits, I couldn't be angry at it if I tried~" Sin proclaimed with a tinge of cute pride in her little creation. It looked to be the sort of creature worth keeping as a pet, and as such she used magic to try and form a contract with it, coerce it into coming closer.

[Bloodedge]

According to Sin herself, the difference of which Anos spoke would not have presented a great threat to his plan. Anos had already been made curious, but this admission was one to be heavily interested in. "You think so? Then it may be time for you to tell me a story directly from your own mouth," the male suggested, wondering after Sin's cryptic mention if this was something he'd have to work out of her by some kind of force. Of course, there were other methods that didn't involve that. "I could always go see for myself. There should be a few possibilities that have you and that boy in a more acceptable relationship. Maybe you were even happy in one of them; I should try my luck there." Anos spoke of ruining a marriage as if it meant nothing, but he had his reasons. Actually, thinking of the implications made him give some legitimate consideration to this makeshift plan of his. . .

Today was a day for Sin to learn something about her mother-turned-son, and about the creatures known in the world as Fae. It was never completely beyond Kishar to know and understand romance; it had always been a choice of duty above all else. In one particular case, the reincarnated Kishar, Enlil, had become very involved with an individual who classified as a Destroyer. "Everyone has interests. Lust reached your world eons ago. No one has ever been immune to it. But... I'm sure you understand that already." Anos spoke only truth. Ki herself had recently shown the lust within, just as her former husband had been doing for millennia. Kishar reincarnated was no exception, even if not all inhabitants of the world were consumed by Lust as others were. "All these things cast out from the world with my kind will always find a way back in. In all of creation, everything wishes to be whole, to be included."

These trees were an interesting replacement for the sun and moon. Their light appeared ambient, spreading far and wide without the trees themselves being an annoyance to look upon. Ah, but Anos' attention had already been taken by this strange creature. Sin claimed she was above starting a war in a fit of jealousy. That was... almost a shame. "Then there is a massive difference between us. I wouldn't hesitate to... rain hell, as they say," he asserted. Of course, the one called Anos did not know jealousy; he was far too certain of his superiority. That wouldn't stop him from massacring thousands just to prove a point. Regardless of their differing opinions, Anos watched nonchalantly as Sin employed a beast mastery technique of old to corral the staring creature. Onward it went toward its tamer after being enveloped by her mana, but even as it did so, it continued looking toward the raven-haired male as if curious. At this point, Anos was a step away from having flashbacks to earlier in the day. . .

[Apollymi]

Apparently the cryptic statement given by Sin posed quite a bit of curiosity in the mind of Anos. He made the claim that it might be time for her to explain with her own mouth though soon after it was followed with the idea that he should see for himself. It was apparently among the possibilities that he could have looked into to see a version of the relationship of Anu and Ki which was not as unhappy as the one he'd come to. He could test his luck with something like that, what an exciting prospect. "I do not think it requires that much of an explanation," she started seeming to give her phrasing just a little bit of extra thought. "Well, in truth, the one known as the Prime Destroyer was always a person who commanded attention. Especially as an existence to be considered equal to that of the Heart of Genesis," she mentioned. "Happiness and acceptability of a relationship aside, there is likely no form of me who wouldn't have heard out what you had to say and who wouldn't have taken you up on an offer you made," she explained of herself. Whether or not such a statement would out her as the absolute fanatic over Anos that she'd been in her childhood, she could not know. Perhaps if he read between the lines and considered the way in which Ki spoke to him, it'd become a thing he'd realize...

Moving on, instead of focusing on the interests of a young Ki, there was the talk of her mother turned son. It was true romantic or lustful interest had been something long since leaked back into the world, but there was still knowing of what Enlil had been like in their adolescence to make the confusion greater. "I mean, yes, I understand that part better than most. But, Enlil once almost destroyed all of humanity because he thought them too noisy. It's just a bit of an extreme contrast," she said knowing what her offspring had been like when they were feeling less than charitable. Even so, she was admittedly quite happy that her eldest son had found something in life worth being excited over, and the thought that what was cast out was looking for a place of belonging was quite interesting as well. "That sounds like something mother would have said actually. Inclusion is important I will concede this and wishing to belong is no crime either..." she mused. She understood that those who'd been cast out likely wouldn't enjoy being outside forever. That is why reintegration was always part of the plan, even if it was a part ignored or forgotten by the Father of the Gods.

The creature approaching would be plucked up even as it continued to stare at Anos. Within Sin's arms she'd only have a chuckle at the supposed antics of Anos, not doubting them even for a second. "Two people being like that would likely be a bit problematic. Though I would not stop you from doing as your heart sees fit... I think she likes you," she said giving the creature a bit of an inspection. Enough at least to realize its gender and the point of its focus. "Actually, think is the wrong word, she definitely likes you..." she mused. "Such a creature does not exist in the material world, I do wonder what it should be called~"

[Bloodedge]

The notion was allegedly that Anos, the Prime Destroyer, was an existence marked as equivalent to the Heart of Genesis. There was much truth to this, as even Anos himself understood. Before them was every example, every ounce of proof that a natural harmony between Sin and himself resulted in creation and destruction without producing utter chaos. Even Kishar may not have managed that in her prime, and other Destroyers surely would have fallen short of balancing the sheer quantity of creation with their mana. Still, the existence of balance was hardly enough to warrant severing preexisting bonds. There had to be something else involved, and... indeed, it may have been just as Anos figured. "Still nothing of a specific answer? I may have an idea. Maybe I will celebrate our union with a tour of lost possibilities. I'm sure Anu would enjoy a few good dreams before I go to ruin them. Besides, I can't go abandoning the version of you I first engaged myself to~"

There were few things Anos was not privy to in the world. Among them, one was the specific reason for the first great flood that reset all humanity. It seemed Enlil as they came to be called had entered quite the interesting phase after falling for a Destroyer. "Hahaha!" Anos bellowed. "I didn't know about that one. I assumed the flood was something Kishar considered a necessary recycling of mortals. That's the influence of my kind," he asserted. Kishar had always been a volatile soul with all of their attempts at balance. Perfect harmony was a must, as the scales would tip heavily with the slightest differential applied. That was precisely the sort of thing Anos could never have dealt with. How Anshar ever managed was beyond him. . .

The strange creature was taken up by Sin, even while it continued to stare down Anos. The Demon King felt neither discomfort nor satisfaction, but instead a sense of interest. Why did this new life seem attached to him? Was it simply a leftover from Sin's attachment? If that were the case, he would expect it to have strange hearts in its eyes... though that would make it something of a problem to deal with. He certainly wouldn't have decided to mate with some random beast; he wasn't Anu or anything. When Sin wondered what the creature should be called, Anos' lips parted. A brief moment of hesitation occurred, and then...

"Sukuna." The word Anos spoke was not his suggestion for the creature's name, but instead acknowledgement of another individual. Ahead of them was soon one of the most powerful inhabitants of the Void. A male torso with two obscured faces attached to it, four phantom arms and a smoky trail in place of legs appeared. "Yo," the entity spoke, having taken a phrase of greeting from a few mortals he managed to touch over the eons. "What's all this? I was minding my own business, and suddenly, there's light? New things don't normally happen here."

[Apollymi]

Balance was a thing to be sought after. A bit of competitive spirit existed in the young Ki, and she might have had it in her head to try her best against an existence like that of the Prime Destroyer. That aside, she'd never heard a bad word uttered about him, making him something of an enigmatic existence and one she fawned over in her youth. All of that aside the idea of him visiting with younger versions of herself was embarrassing for various reasons. "I find that to be about the same level of embarrassing that you claim stories of you were..." she stated. "Though I wouldn't deny younger versions of myself the chance to meet you. I imagine those versions of myself would be a bit more awkward," she said seeming the slightest bit sheepish. "I also did not see you in any of my previous visions. That likely contributes to ease of transition in the case of my other self~" she stated plainly. Oh well, she wouldn't stop him from finding out about her younger more endearing selves, and the likely star-struck fanaticism he'd be met with if a young Ki were something he encountered in his travels.

Moving on, the great flood of man was one which Anos wasn't privy to the details of. It seemed he had a pretty good laugh and a valid explanation for the temperamental shift of the former Kishar given the information he'd been provided. "Oh? I suppose that does make a bit more sense than anything else. I figured they were just going through a particularly moody phase," she summarized. But a bit of Void influence to the nature deity and the loss of the one they'd taken most interest in, and suddenly the pieces of a millennia old puzzle, fit together perfectly.

What also fit together perfectly? The destruction and creation carried on by this particular pair of individuals. So much so, she was now inspecting a small creature aiming to think of a name for it, enamored though it was with her new husband. Surely enough, it wasn't a romantic interest this little creation possessed but more like... hm was there a word to describe it? She wasn't really sure, the only thing she was certain of was the need for a name, so much so, that she'd not taken her eyes off the little thing for quite a few seconds, enough that the approach of another went initially uncared for by her, until a name was offered which did not fit at all anything she might have been thinking for the gemstone creature running about in their new lands. "I do not think that name fits such a cute creature..." she mused only to look up at Anos and then following the trails of his eyes set sight upon someone who answered to that particular name. Though mostly enshrouded there was a certain clarity which came with Sin laying her eyes upon this individual which made her brow raise gently. Those lit slit pupils of hers seemed to expand gently as of if to widen her field of view. "Oh, that's his name... fair enough. It would have been a shame to vote against every name you came up with~" she mused seeming not to care too much one way or another for this new appearance of an individual though there was a certain interest which lay in something she could see not physically about this being but in his future. His demeanor was a bit off putting but... she was sure there were a few who would tolerate it. "The new things and the light were my doing," she admitted without the slightest bit of shame.

One thing was certain above all others after the current discussion. If nothing else, Anos would definitely be visiting a few possible pasts on a grand tour of discovery. After all, Ki had obviously heard an infinite number of tales about him; it was time he learned a bit more about her as well. The time for his trip would come eventually, but now remained a time of togetherness in the wake of their union. "That all only sounds more interesting. Maybe tomorrow, I'll take a trip," he said in reference to an earlier bit of jest between them. Immediately after speaking however, he thought of the light-providing trees outside his castle. "Oh. Tomorrow has become real here, hasn't it? Maybe next week then," he corrected.

Anos hadn't been expecting interruptions so very soon, but the amount of creation that occurred so recently would stir any onlooker into action. This one, Sukuna, was also no ordinary onlooker. It went without saying that a great interest had been sparked in the half-manifested male, especially when realizing an actual Creator was in their midst. No... that wasn't quite right, was it? The woman who took credit for this creation felt so similar to Anos, could she truly be called a Creator, if she ever was? Anos would be clearing things up a bit before any further questioning. "As she said. This is Sin, my new bride and Queen of the Void to my status as king. You would know her as the Creator Ki," Anos explained. Well, that answered one question of Sukuna's, and technically another as well. Alas, this sudden mention of kings and queens was news to him. "King? Queen? Don't those wear crowns?" asked Sukuna. "Ah... right. Delsgade's treasury is around here somewhere. We'll find it soon enough,"" Anos answered.

Ever curious, Sukuna floated around this strange woman. He recalled the name Ki from old tales; she was a relic from Anos' time, and technically a member of Sukuna's own generation. The more he moved around her, the more he got a feel for what had been occurring in the Void so recently. "Hoho! You two have been busy. So, you found a Creator that you wouldn't wipe from existence during the transfer? I didn't think they still had those," Sukuna commented. On his obscured faces, a total of four eyes had become visible in total. There was also a mouth visible on one face, though not exactly where mouths were meant to be. However this one came together, it was going to be somewhat strange. Either way, Anos answered. "It took little effort. Their Sources are sleeping. All I had to do was wake it up," he explained. This news seemed to Excite Sukuna. He knew there were many of those Celestials with the blood of creation flowing through them, and he knew just the type of fun that could be had if one could survive encountering a demon like himself. What did he have to say when coming to this realization, though? Simply...

"I want one!" A decision was made. Sukuna had a clear desire to visit the mortal plane, but there was one thing keeping him from it. Unlike Anos, not all demons/Destroyers could simply do as they pleased, even if others, like Sukuna, were weaker. "Sukuna, Demon Lord of Obscenity. I will confer with the queen. Shall we allow the embodiment of curses to enter the material plane during this cycle?" As he spoke, Anos manifested a single severed finger, gray in color with a long, sharp nail. He trusted Sin's senses had adjusted to the Void enough by now that she would feel a direct connection between that finger and Sukuna, and indeed, it held a portion of his total power. "Most of these are in the material world now. Of twenty, myself and Kiara held two in case this one could ever be allowed a return. It was once a decision left to either of us, but Kiara has gone to the material world, and you are the queen now. I'll take your opinion."
