" Why did you choose me for this universe? "
You ask The One as you continue to float in space, admiring the beautiful planet in front of you.

(( "You were chosen because you are much more special than you believe, mortal. You know yourself to be a lowly human in your reality, but within the Omniverse itself you are something far greater. An extraordinary being with dangerous potential. A potential that strikes fear into those that are powerful enough to see it. This is why Nahzgor attacked you. Nahzgor's chain can effortlessly destroy any thing made of physical matter, and one simple touch from the chain is all it takes for Nahzgor to enslave any mortal being. Nahzgor saw this dangerous potential inside of you, thus the reason why he thrusted his chain in your direction." ))
You blink your eyes and you're suddenly standing in a beautiful open field, feeling as if you're present here as a gentle wind blows on your skin. However, deep in your subconscious, you know that this is merely a vision that The One is projecting into your mind. You look outwards to see an unfathomable amount of roses on the horizon, each one softly moving with the gentle wind before slowly walking towards them. As you approach, you notice how each rose looks slightly unique in its own way from all of the others. The One speaks to you from inside your mind.

(( "Within The Holy Omniverse, there are an infinite amount of universes that contain an infinite number of organisms. For every organism, there are an infinite number of alternate versions of them across each of the infinite universes where they reside. They are the very same organism, but each one is slightly unique to their own respective universe. It is my design for the potential of every living being within The Holy Omniverse to be divided amongst the infinite versions of them. This means that the Omniverse itself limits the potential of what all beings are ultimately capable of. All except one." ))
The field of infinite roses immediately begins to change form as the rose petals from all of the roses detach from their respective flowers and begin to float delicately into the air all at once. You look up in awe at the beautiful display of rose petals all around you as they ascend into the beautiful blue sky and clouds above and you're mesmerized by the beauty of the atmosphere that these rose petals have created. The magnificence of this moment feels like forever, but it eventually passes and the rose petals disappear into the heavens. You then look back down at your feet to see a single rose remaining right in front of you. The One continues to speak to you.

(( "I have chosen you because you are a singularity. A glitch in my system. A special gem of irregularity in an Omniverse of calculated design. I am the All-Maker. Creator of everything including the very universe in which you have resided in for your entire life. I am the father of your gods, the designer of your reality and the architect of every being's existence. Every being except for you. In your universe, you are called human. However from an Omniversal perspective, singularities such as yourself are called something much different. Singularities such as yourself are called Black Traps, and Black Traps do not have their potential divided whatsoever because no other versions of them can exist across the Omniverse." ))
You snap out of The One's vision and you find yourself floating back in space in front of the beautiful planet again. The One then takes a physical form right in front of you. You can feel the entirety of the Omniverse overwhelm all of your senses as this transcendental being looks into you, just like when it presented itself to you the first time.

(( "There is something I wish to give you, mortal. A gift that will help you in your endeavors within this new universe." ))
An ancient cosmic book materializes out of space and you receive it. The brown cover feels soft and leather-like with a hexagonal lock holding it shut. You read 4 golden letters imprinted onto the face of it and you immediately feel an unstoppable power wash over you as you hold it in your hand.

(( "My Transcript of The Holy Omniverse. This book is the physical embodiment of Omniversal understanding. It holds my power of creation and is capable of manipulating every being in existence, but be warned. This book contains a power the likes of which your mortal mind cannot hope to comprehend at your current state. Only a being of immense power may unlock my book, and only an even greater being of power may use it. As of right now you are a weak and fragile mortal. However, if you follow the path that I have set ahead for you, I know that you will realize your true potential and become powerful enough to use it. Now begone, mortal. A new universe and the new world of Aria awaits you." ))
Before you can bid him farewell, The One's material form disappears and you begin falling towards the surface of the planet faster and faster. The atmosphere burns intensely around you, but the book that you're holding protects you as you hug it to your chest while you're descending into this new world. As you're falling down onto the planet from the sky, you think about how crazy all of this is. The One? The Omniverse? Witnessing the creation of Gods? A Singularity? This is all happening so fast…
Your mind begins to race as everything that just happened to you finally sets in and you start to panic. It's all real. All of it. Your heart beats the hardest and fastest that it ever has as you continue falling into this new world. Your mind is overwhelmed with so many thoughts that you begin to feel a headache. But as soon as you snap back into the moment of where you are, you hit the surface of the planet and black out unconscious.
