Volume 10 – Chapter 21: "The Disciples of the Absolute"
The battle was over.
The Counter-Force had fallen.
The blank world now shimmered with galaxies of pure meaning every star a thought, every world a verse from Erevan's will.
But he wasn't satisfied.
Creation needed more than existence. It needed keepers.
> "I have walked alone long enough," Erevan said quietly.
"It's time others learn to shape the infinite."
The Birth of the Disciples
He extended his hand, and from the radiance of his soul emerged twelve spheres of light each pulsing with a different form of infinity.
They floated before him like children waiting for a name.
> "You are born from my essence," he declared.
"You will not worship me… you will continue me."
Each light shifted, forming into beings radiant and distinct, yet unmistakably carrying Erevan's divine signature.
Seraphon, the Wordkeeper: Wielder of Script Manipulation, capable of sealing or releasing worlds through the rewriting of divine code.
Veyra, the Void-Singer: Possessor of Existential Harmony, her voice stabilizes or dissolves entire realities.
Orion, the Chronarch: Master of Absolute Temporal Flow, controlling and existing within every timeline at once.
Nyxir, the Shadow Core: Controller of Antithesis Energy, embodying the balance between creation and destruction.
Edena, the Light Weaver: Crafts new species and stars using threads of Erevan's aura.
Kairoth, the Mirror of the King: The only one made in Erevan's exact image created to test the limits of loyalty and power.
And six more, whose names were erased even from the multiverse destined to exist beyond remembrance.
Erevan's New Authority
As he watched them kneel before him, a new resonance filled his being. His power evolved again, not from battle but from creation shared.
New Abilities Gained
Omni-Genesis Authority: The divine right to birth beings with limitless potential drawn from his own existence.
Essence Fragmentation: Erevan can divide his soul into fragments that become sentient avatars or new gods.
Narrative Delegation: Allows him to grant parts of his narrative authority to chosen disciples.
Meta-Existence Link: All disciples are bound directly to him; their strength and consciousness expand his own.
Story Resonance Field: Any reality his disciples influence becomes part of Erevan's domain, linking infinite multiverses under one will.
> "Your purpose is not to serve," Erevan said, voice calm yet absolute.
"It's to learn. The story will continue long after me… but only through those who understand the ink I used to shape it."
Kairoth his mirror stepped forward.
> "And if we surpass you?"
Erevan smiled.
> "Then I've done my job."
He turned toward the glowing horizon a thousand realities shimmering like ocean waves beneath him. His disciples followed, their newly forged powers creating ripples through existence.
> "This is no longer just my story," Erevan whispered.
"It's the beginning of the Infinite Age."
