Tentative Synopsis: Rigel heads toward the anomaly at the center of the galaxy to set off a chain reaction that could stop the collapse of the universe, for better or worse.

10.1

That thing, that I could only call the Sentience, should I trust it? Should I trust a suicidal god? Or was it some sort of messiah, or demon? No, it wasn't a god it was something else. Was it all in my mind?

Regrowth

Rigel felt somewhat better.

The noises were growing back again, after the destruction.

Rigel looked at his uniform. Even though it was dirty, he didn't mind. It reminded him of his many challenges.

The situation had at least leveled off.

Rigel would have to set off the next segment again. He wanted it to be better than the last, even acknowledging that he would fail in some regards.

Rigel set about planning another stage.

He would do so in honor of Sophiy.

The plants would be his allies. Whether or not they wanted to.

Rigel laughed.


10.3

The game of immortals had begun. Were Rigel's eyes deceiving him or were beings of light dancing in front of him? Did he have eyes or did his brain deceive him. Were his eyes even open at that moment?

10.4

“Rigel...” a woman’s voice whispered. Rigel falls to the ground in fear, looking in all directions. “What! Who are you!? Show yourself!”. The woman laughs, “You are funny Rigel....I like you..do you like me?”. Rigel terrified runs away. He finds himself down a dark dirt path. He can see lights. It’s a monastery. He runs for it. He opens the doors to find a man. A monk sitting alone. “Sir please help me there is a ghost!”. The monk is silent. “Sir! Please!” The monk says nothing. “You have to believe me!”, screams Rigel. “A ghost you say?”, the monk finally speaks up. “Yes! Please I’m scared!” Rigel cries. At that very moment the monk became red. Literally. As if he was a metal ingot heated to 2000 degrees. His clothes burned off. His sweat boiled. He grabbed the sides of his head. Rigel screamed in terror. “Rigel don’t cry, don’t cry Rigel, don’t be sad Rigel!”, a woman’s voice chimed in. The large wooden double doors slam shut. All the candles are extinguished in an instant. All that can be seen is the evil red glow emanating from the monk. Rigel, paralyzed with fear, fell to the ground. Unable to scream, he then looked in confused horror and vomited. A disemboweled naked woman appeared. It was his mother. The monk suddenly lifted off the ground high into the air and he began to proclaim “ Miserere mei, et exaudi orationem meam!” and as the monk uttered his last word, his body was instantly ripped in half. His two halves fall at Rigel’s feet. The monk looks at Rigel, blood drools from his mouth. Rigel still too stunned to react. The woman walks up to Rigel. “Hello baby boy, eat for mommy. Please, I made it just for you!”, she bends down to Rigel, the monk’s two halves lying in between. She stares deeply into his eyes. “I love you baby” Her eyes turn black. Rigel cannot stop staring into his mother’s eyes. “I love you too mommy”. Rigel kisses his own mother passionately. His gaze transfixed on her black soulless eyes.

10.5

I took the (orb) with me into the anomaly. There were millions of threads going in every direction, focusing on a small pulsing fiery light, that somehow all these threads were connected to. I knew I needed to to head towards this light. Something occurred to me that (...) [of the Order] told me. That the universe was connected to itself, that all galaxies came together at a single, delicate point, accessible from the center of even the smallest galaxy. What would happen if I brought the orb into this mysterious light, which can only be the center of it all. Was it destruction or creation? But then again the orb could be powerless, and what mattered was a thought, a choice, that I had to make. Was my species, my galaxy, precious. Would finity be so bad?...
