Mountain Olympus, Divine Palace.
Mountain Olympus is large and magnificent engraved with numerous treasures and runes giving off a powerful Divine glow of an Ancient land.
It gave off a grand and ancient feeling that inspired awe and reverence from low ranking Gods who didn't dare to trespass without permission.
They could only look from afar in admiration vowing to work hard so they could one day reach there.
The Palace halls were guarded by several Elite Gods.
In the throne room, Hera, the Queen Goddess of Olympus, sat with a frown on her impeccable face.
The news she has received wasn't pleasant at all.
There was a suffocating pressure pressing down on every being on the vast mountain. Her divine power was passively reacting which wasn't anything pleasant for the low ranking Gods who kept cursing at their misfortune.
'We would have fled earlier!' Many cried.
Something had been stolen from tartarus, this was enough to bring horror to the Gods of Olympus making her uneasy.
Tartarus, a place of horrors and home of extremely powerful beings, was sealed away. It is one of the most feared places in the Divine world.
Some Beings had invaded and were very successful in their mission.
'Can't they give me a break.' She audibly sighed in contemplation.
The God King, Zeus, was off on some 'issues' in some lower realms far from the Divine world.
"Immediately call all the Major Gods, tell them something happened to Tartarus if they ask." Her voice thundered with Divine authority throughout Olympus.
After several minutes, several figures appeared in the Palace before the Queen Goddess.
They gave off a powerful presence. Their figures were made of divinity clearly they didn't appear in person.
Those of low power knelt across Mountain Olympus feeling the heavy suppression and powerful divinities.
They were both awed and terrified, a contradiction in itself but a huge surprise unpredicted.
'All the Major Gods have gathered.' was a common thought by everyone.
The Queen Goddess, her expression cold and indifferent, looked at the 10 figures who had arrived.
"Tartarus has been invaded. The devils have managed to snatch the Ancient heart which has been sealed for thousands of years." Her words were like an invisible sword making everyone present feel pain and fear.
Their scalps tinged remembering terror and horrors those who fought against that entity felt.
"Who betrayed us?" Poseidon asked coldly abit of his aura released shaking Olympus in an Earthquake.
Numerous continents housing thousands collapsed at a glimpse of his power.
"Calm down abit, Poseidon." Hades said turning towards Hera. "Have you located the culprits?"
"There is no trace left of their escape. They were too cautious, we sensed them but it was too late to make a move. The used a very powerful high ranking formation to cross through space and time."
"Looks like the Devils are scheming something too big for them to dare offend us with out hesitation." Apollo said, lost in contemplation. The God's head gave off a powerful golden light like a bright sun.
"Have you contacted Zeus yet." Athena asked, her thoughts moving too fast thinking of millions of possibilities in a blink.
"I lost contact of him." Hera said with gritted teeth. Everyone understood what she meant with that.
"First lock down Tartarus for now." Ares said, his eyes closed. No one knew what he was thinking.
Snatching something from them was bound to cause chaos in the Divine realm. Several Pantheons will look at them as if they were a joke.
This wasn't a simple matter at all. They needed to act swiftly and capture the mastermind.
As much as they were furious currently, they had to take several countermeasures to prevent the same thing from happening.
The meeting continued. Hestia, Demeter, Aphrodite, Hermes, Hephaestus and Artemis also gave out valuable support and opinions.
After a long time, everyone left in a flash. Hera leaned on her throne.
Her heavenly gaze pierced through time and space reaching a very dark place akin to the abyss. She felt a slight chill but snorted and relaxed.
"I need to prepare for any surprise you bring at my door, damn you devils." She hissed angrily making the space itself tremble.

After dropping Talia at his Palace, Emriel left.
He was now standing in the void.
This was a lower realm. A place too far away from the Divine world.
With his power, crossing through time and space was nothing. He could traverse mortal universes with a thought.
"Such a rare treasure to appear in a lower realm, quite a surprise."
Though its called a lower realm, the sheer potential of its natives was above others making him look at it in new light.
Universes were destroyed and others grew.
Her could see various small lights dim while others glowed brightly.
What he was looking at were millions of Universes in the dark void.
Mortals always think they are the center of everything.
Though they do fear the unknown, many tend to forget and create delusions that trap them from facing harsh reality.
As harsh as reality is, deadiamond Univers he complete truth that doesn't lie.
His palm stretched out making a grasping gesture.
Thousands of light years from him, a dark crystal stood motionless in the abyss like universe.
It was a dead universe. No life. No mana. Completely abandoned.
A gaint hand tore through the void and grasped the crystal before disappearing.
[Mission complete, you have gain 3000 Karma points and 56 charm points.]
The diamond Universal core shrunk in his hands.
It gave off a chilling presence accompanied by a unique ancient smell. It has been in the dead universe for billions of years.
He disappeared.

STAR CONSTELLATION.
This is a hidden place in the Divine world where stars are birthed. Dead stars also dim here.
The domain was too bright that it gave off very high temperatures.
Trillions upon trillions of stars lit the dark void.
There was no concept of shadows in this domain.
No one has ever dared to come here let alone know the exact location of the star bathing place.
Immortal Gods could melt even without being able to enter or take a glimpse at it.
The domain span several worlds and planes. No one knows its end since stars could be seen everywhere.
Emriel appeared here. He didn't dare act recklessly. A protective barrier appeared around him.
"The bigger the better. I will also take a few extra for back up." He said.
His silver eyes were giving off a powerful light staring through the very fabric of space in this realm searching for the biggest star in existence.
"Found ya."
Boooooooooooooooom
A very powerful shockwave spread throughout the Star domain. A gigantic star whose size could easily Dwarf the entire Divine world shook.
It tried to escape but an invincible force compelled it in place.
It had started developing consciousness after living in here for trillions of years absorbing other stars.
Emriel expended his divine power making the gigantic star shrink in size at an alarming pace.
As this was happening, the outside world was in chaos.
Several small worlds were engulfed in darkness. The light in the vast sky dimmed.
Many panicked. Some screamed.
This happened across all planes, lower, middle and even higher realms.
Though the higher realms were the least affected.
A small star appeared in Emriel's had. He toyed with it in satisfaction.
"Okay, now lets clean up over mess, shall we."
His hand rose slowly.
Swoosh Swoosh
Several small stars started converging hundreds... thousands... millions... billions...
trillions...
He nearly expended half of his vast divine power to fuse the stars into a gigantic star far more massive and bright than the previous one.
It stung him a little but he let it slide.
Though he was too far from them, he could hear several cries of joy in the lower realms.
A brighter light far superior to the previous one shone majestically upon them.
