After traveling with Jannay for a few days toward the rising sun, we discovered another human settlement. The people there welcomed us warmly, offering us a decent meal and an old, abandoned hut to rest in. We were both exhausted and gladly accepted their hospitality. For the first time in several nights, we both enjoyed a peaceful sleep. It was comforting to be among friendly humans again.
The next morning, I woke up early but let Jannay sleep; she needed the rest. I went to visit the elder chief woman of the settlement, who was in charge. We had a conversation, and she asked about our background. I told her that bandits had destroyed my home and I had been traveling alone for a while until I found Jannay in the rubble of a devastated settlement.
This was a lie, of course, as I thought it best not to reveal that I was a thief who was supposed to be dead. As for the whole giant snake incident, they were better off not knowing. It was terrifying, and I wasn't sure if they would have believed me anyway.
The elder chief woman told me we were welcome to stay as long as we wished and that they would be happy for us to become permanent members of the settlement. And so we did. I raised Jannay as my daughter, and the days turned into years as Jannay grew older while I remained the same.
In the vastness of all things, our existence may seem insignificant. The universe is immense and never-ending, while we are small in comparison. However, it's crucial to recognize that we play a vital role within this boundless expanse. Our presence contributes to the seamless functioning of the cosmos. We should not fear the endlessness of the universe but instead take pride in being part of this vast and interconnected whole. As you gaze at the night sky, marveling at the stars, remember that we are all one with the cosmos.
From the book Philosophies of the universe. Written during the final age of enlightenment.
After finishing his tea, the young boy fell asleep. He must have been exhausted, Erik thought, as he returned to the deck of the ship. The sky was now blue and sunny, the sea had calmed down and was crystal clear. He continued sailing north.
As he scanned the sea, Erik noticed black ooze-like stains in the water again. He wondered what they could be. Over time, the stains became more frequent and seemed to be growing in size.
Hours passed, and the sun began to set. Finally, the boy awoke and came up to the deck.
“Hi, how are you?” Erik asked.
“My head hurts, and I am hungry,” the boy replied.
“Alright, I have fish soup in the cooking pot if you want.”
“Sounds good, but can I trust you? I don't know you or where I am.”
“Well, I saved your life; you were drowning. Besides, you have no other choice. We're in the middle of the ocean, and if my calculations are correct, we're days away from dry land.”
“I guess that's true. Okay, then I would really appreciate some fish soup.”
“Alright, let me heat it for you.”
Erik went into the small kitchen of his boat and lit the fire under the pot. Afterward, they both sat down to have dinner.

The battle with the snake, was my first encounter with a monster. At the time, I just thought monsters were just another part of this strange world to me. It wasn't until later that I realized these creatures did not belong and it was up to me to eliminate them. After defeating the serpent, I found Jannay nearby, mourning her family who had been killed by the beast. I felt terrible for her loss but didn't know how to help her cope with such a tragedy. She clung onto me, fearing she would be alone again.
I embraced her and promised that I wouldn't leave her side. Deep down, I decided to take Jannay along with me on my journey, even though I had no idea where we were heading. We spent the night in the same cave I stayed at before, and she slept safely in my arms until morning came.
The next day, I ventured out to find food for us. Being unskilled in hunting, I gathered some fruit instead. After our meal, I made the decision that we should travel eastward.

Without delay, Erik lowered a rope into the sea and then leaped in himself. He swam towards the boy and assisted him by pulling him toward their ship. Climbing up the rope together, Erik noticed an unusual black ooze in the water but was unsure of its nature. The young boy was chilled to his bones, so Erik provided him with some warm blankets for comfort. Afterward, he went on to prepare a steaming cup of tea for both of them to enjoy and help ease their discomfort from the cold ocean waters.
It is said that one day, the sky will bleed as reality ceases to exist. In this moment of cosmic collapse, all existence shall vanish. As time reaches its ultimate halt, Death and Life will confront each other, united in their love.

In a distant part of the universe, a voice spoke, “How is the situation?” Another figure replied, “It's quite dire; many are wounded and several are in critical condition. It may have spread to other universes as well.” “This is concerning,” said the first figure. “We need heroes now more than ever. Prepare for the activation of Project Imortel, initially only within our universe which has been hit hardest.” “I understand, but Death won't be pleased with this decision.” “I don't care; it must be done,” said the first figure resolutely. “Death will eventually accept that this is necessary.”
