Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-28546904-20190605023334

There "it" was. You've finally arrived to the destination where "it" was last roaming. Or rather, there "he" was. Is it a he? Or a her? You don't know. Pretty sure nobody else knows. Even the mamono's aren't sure what gender "it" was. Regardless, there he was. He whom arrived out of nowhere a month ago. A mass of black shadow slithering from the heavens and forming into a humanoid figure that towered above all life on this world. And if rumors were to be believed, you were like the size of a fly on its palm. Its torso was wide while its lower body was thin. It had long lithe arms along with a thumb and four thin curled fingers with talons. Long thin legs that were hard to make out from its shadow-like cloak that it wore, it's feet could not be made out. And a triangular skull shaped head with a single glowing red eye in the center.

It was old, very old.

"It was so tall! It blocked out the sun when it passed by!"

It was abnormal.

"For something of its size, it looks...gnarly to me. Don't you agree?"

It was alien.

"It's existence is heretical! A mockery to the human form!"

It was not of this world.

"It just came out of the sky. Like a gentle river with no sound."

It arrived naught but a month ago. Everyone felt it. You know you did. Pretty sure even the gods and demons did too if the increasing rumors were to be believed. A dark oppressive feeling that sent shivers through your body for no proper explanations. It almost made you want to hide in fear and go mad from paranoia. But you persevered and kept strong despite the feeling. The mamono were the most effected however when "he" landed upon the world. Even the more prideful ones like the dragons were wary and slightly nervous though they tried to hide it. When asked about the creature they all said, it was like a new predator had arrived. Easily claiming new territory without struggle and resistance.

"Run away! Run away! Run as fast as you can!"

Something dangerous.

"No! Can't run! Can't escape from it!"

Something deadly.

"Can't hide from it! It's can see, hear, smell and taste where you are!"

Something terrifying.

"Don't make it angry! Can't fight it! Too powerful!"

Fear spread amongst the people. Fear of what is to come. Fear for the end times. Armies were rallied in preparation and many cities went under lockdown. Even the mamono began to dig in and wait. And yet...yet...despite all that. It never did anything. It simply...watched, watcged like a curious child. And waited, standijg still for hours, staring at something. And roamed when it felt like it, not a single sound for something so titanic. Watching, waiting, walking. Watching, waiting and walking...for something. What was it doing? Why was it here? Why are we still alive? Nobody knows, and nobody wants to find out. And so, everyone kept their distance, the mamono more so for they were extremely on edge. Some were scared enough not to even come outside of their homes in fear of "it" seeing them. Talk and rumors began to spread like wildfire. Everyone was tense and tried to keep order...or so you heard.

"Rumors from the Order territories that a bunch of high-ranking angels and knights from the cities were sent to scout the creature. A lot of talk that they haven't been heard for a long while though."

"I saw a bunch of demon mamono make their way to the creature. I think somebody mentioned even a lilim among them. Not sure if it's true though. But heard no news of them however."

And now here YOU stood. You that dared to track this otherworldly alien being down. Despite your fears and despite the pleas and warnings from many others, you pressed on. Perhaps it was curiosity or perhaps it was something more. But you followed it, even when you got closer and closer. It was like the world halted itself in terror in its presence. And yet you kept following and here you are now. In the shadow of the creature. No, a god. No...even greater. Far older than the gods themselves. A primordial being. You could feel it in your bones as you stood in its shadow, it's age and it's power. Your instincts screamed at you to run but you kept your cool as it turned its titanic eye to gaze down at you. And once more you felt that same dark oppressive feeling falls down onto your shoulders. Everything stilled and went quiet and the air felt heavy on your body, almost making you collapse to your knees as its eye gazed down at you.

Why were you here?

What were you thinking?

What do you do now?

What will it do?

Those thoughts are pushed aside when you felt it. Something slithers into your mind. A voice.

"So..." It drawled curiously, it's voice a symphony of many. "...another comes to me. Yet this one is different from the others."

It tilted it's head and you could make out some sort of scar on it's skull. A jagged scare almost as if something had tried to tear it's head apart. You could see bits and pieces of bone regenerating, a glowing purple wound open to the world, dark ichor bleeding from it...almost as if this entity came out of a conflict recently. But those wounds looked otherworldly. Nothing like from your world perhaps and you hope. Its voice draws you back to its "face".

'''"One wasn't so welcoming of my presence yet strayed away." '''It's voice mimicking a male.

There was a flash and it's shape took on that of a Knight of the Order, it again morphed into a mercenary of sorts.

'''"The other came curious of my nature and being yet watched from afar." '''This time it was a female.

Another flash and it took on the appearance of a valkyrie before morphing into a lilum.

'''"Both walked away more curious after." '''It said in a child's voice before humming.

A final flash and it reverted back to it's original form.

'''"You seem braver and bolder than both. Why do you approach me?" '''It asked you, it's voice being many once more, it's eye glowing ominously at you.

WWYD?
