Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-28546904-20190525000649

Darkness.

Darkness all around you.

All you could see was black darkness. Cold and lifeless. Devoid of warmth and coldness. Yet in the dark, when you were born, when you opened your eyes to the black void all around you. You felt something. When you gazed around...you felt that you were watched as well. Gazing into the abyss...it eventually gazed back. Two glowing purple eyes greeted your own. You remember the fear you felt when you saw those cold and lifeless eyes. Yet...you felt comfort at the same time. You stared into the eyes. They stared back. And you still remember a voice calling to you, from those glowing eyes.

"Hello, young one. Child of my flesh and soul. Welcome to your world, welcome to the Void." A voice spoke.

"Father..." You said to yourself.

0000 Forward to Present, Many years later...

Today was a special day for you. Today would be the day that you would get to feed by yourself. Usually you would feed with your siblings, yes siblings that too were born from father's flesh and soul, today you would finally be able to feast by yourself. You were no longer a youngling anymore. Were now getting older and wiser as time progressed and you were getting stronger as well. And a chance to feed by yourself was too good to pass. Anyway, usually all younglings would feed together as one. Doing so would help divide the feeding energy evenly among the younglings but also help improve their limits in how much they could feed and how long they could go without. Overeating over one’s limit could have a variety of drawbacks, such as sickness, occasional pains in oneself, etc. Father usually oversees the one ready to feed by themselves just in case to prevent a disaster from occurring. As you flew through the void of space and time, you eventually reach your destination.

"Welcome child." Your father said as you arrived.

Your father was currently in one of his most "favored" forms. A form of a 'Human' child. This form wore a hooded robe of sorts with pieces of metal acting as armor located on his shoulder, chest and feet. This made him look like a battle priest or monk of sorts. He had many other forms he could take on, yet this one seemed to be his favorite. You always wonder why yet never asked, that was your father's business not yours. Besides, many that have tried to fight and kill him usually underestimated him before they were erased to nothingness. Maybe that's why your father wore that form.

"I have arrived father." You said respectfully and affectionately. "I am ready for the feeding."

You spot a faint smile, one that makes you joyful and full of pride. While cold and aloof at times, father still showed his love to you and your brothers and sisters when he could. He motions for you to follow and you oblige. You both soon come to a solar system, and average sized one at most. But you spot your desired prize almost instantly. A planet, one full of life. You begin to salvitate at the sight of it, just waiting to get a taste of the world. You hone your senses and get a feel for the world. You could feel the aura of war and depravity emitting from the world. You catch a glimpse of various females of sorts, all of them will animialistic or supernatural traits. And a race of humanoids fighting to try and halt a slow unstoppablenforce. The aura makes you quiver in hunger.

"Now, now. Don't rush." Your father admonished.

You yield in submission as he exerts his dominance and reign in your hunger as you both approach the planet. You would not dare to the challenge him, all those that did were erased from existance without a single care. Even your siblings, the ones that got uppity with him and tried to kill him. His power was infinite and never ending, only a fool would dare to fight him. As you get closer, you notice a swirl of lights around the planet. You felt them 'watching' you. A sunlight colored one, an image of a female angelic figured humanoid goddess went through your mind. A dark purple one, a fallen goddess. A red and a dark pinkish one follwed by many others, a human male and some demon female of sorts along with many that look just like her. You sense something from them but are not sure. You look to your father in confusion.

"Am I having an audience father?" You ask.

"In a sense my child. They are here to witness the feeding personally." Your father replies.

You hum with interest before looking back at the planet you were to soon feast on. You lick your lips as you gaze upon the world, eager to feast. You've gone for several days without eating ever since your father told you, and so you were quite famished. Excitement had made your forgone eating in order to savor the moment when you were able to feed on a world yourself. But before you continued, you decided to ask your father one last question.

"Sorry if I may ask father. But Is this not one of ours? Not one that follows us?" You ask him.

"No, my child. They are not ours. Nor would they ever follow us." He replies.

Nodding, you return your gaze back onto the world. And you eye it hungrily. You steel yourself and prepare yourself. You have done this countless time, but with your siblings. This would be no different. But the light's catch your attention. They glow brightly as you approach, making you frown. You sense something coming from them. You narrow your eyes before focusing and felt...

Fear.

Despair.

Horror.

Anger.

Hate.

Pleading.

Mercy.

The emotions make you flinch in response. Before youbcould retreat, images of many lives flowed through your mind. Many of loved ones, children and their dreams, many of female-humanoids of varying types seeking love, and one that sought to unify the world. You float back in surprise from the directed emotions that you felt. This earns a growl from your father which immediately silences the lights, making them quiver in his presence. Doubt began to gnaw at you now as you look at your father and the world. Your father only gestures to continue. Will you consume this world like countless others? Or will you bargain with your father for this world? Or something else? WWYD?

Note: Just in case you haven't gotten the hint, you're an Elderitch Abomination/Comsic Horror that eats the lifeforce of worlds. Draining all life from the planet and reducing it into a barren world. Eating it doesn't permenantly kill the world, just...resets it for new life to form.
