The transformation was unique in ways Noah hadn’t anticipated.
His Organ of Civilization, which was becoming THE Hadean Organ of Civilization, kept moving across his body in patterns that defied prediction. From his head to his heart to his limbs and all extremities, the organ traveled as if searching for its proper ho. He felt like a pinball machine, the transforming organ bouncing between locations while leaving trails of multicolored warmth wherever it passed.
He had to rise up from the golden sands.
The warmth of both the Pluvial Epoch of Existential Infinity and THE Hadean Ergence bathed his body on all sides, two Miniature Causes working in harmony to saturate his existence with authority he’d helped create. The golden sands of the Early Veiled Shore around him had risen up and were floating like glimrs of golden stars, each grain suspended by forces responding to the transformation occurring within him.
Inside his body, as all of this took place, he continued to generate endless Quintessence Infiniforce.
All of it was a flood of sensations that he frankly had to say felt better than so of the grandest sensations he’d experienced so far in existence.
The pleasure wasn’t rely physical. It ran deeper, touching aspects of his foundations. Every mont of the transformation brought waves of sothing approaching bliss!
It even exceeded his euphoria during his spar with THE Creature.
That spar told him a great deal of things about existence itself. There was no need to say who was the victor of that spar, of course. After all, it was just a spar, right?
Right!
There was no need to declare a loser or a winner when both parties walked away with what they wanted!
What he did learn was that THE Creature’s power was unique beyond asure. Even though their confrontation occurred eons in the past from his perspective, THE Creature had felt just as strong if not stronger than the current version Noah had talked to in Alfheimr. That ancient monster had been playing with Adversity for longer than Noah could properly calculate, experinting with concepts that most beings couldn’t comprehend.
But after fighting against him, Noah could effectively say that in all of existence, there likely wasn’t a single entity at THE First Scale who could possibly push him around.
If there was a competition for who the strongest entity below THE Proterozoic Scale was, he was fairly confident he’d be taking that title. With his control over Infinity externally, and now his control over Quintessence Infiniforce internally, paired with the budding and terrifying force of THE Infiniverse, the only thing he was currently looking forward to was punching upward toward entities on an entirely different Scale.
It felt like the change of the Organ of Civilization would aid with that endeavor.
HUUM!
As he was thinking this, he gained a profound new sense from the organ.
It felt like an extension of his being in ways his previous Organ of Civilization never had. Sothing within it had shifted, gaining an invisible force that pressed against his awareness with intensity that demanded acknowledgnt. At this mont, he felt it begin to shine with multicolored crystalline light that pushed outward from within his chest.
The organ had stopped at the very center of his chest.
It had found its ho.
The mont it completed its transformation...
BOOM!
Noah’s figure rose into the air involuntarily, lifted by forces responding to what had just erged within him. The golden sand that had been floating around him began to spin in configurations that placed him at the absolute center, each grain orbiting his form as if he was the core of a galaxy being born. Light poured from his chest in streams of multicolored brilliance that painted the Early Veiled Shore in hues existence rarely witnessed.
As utmost glory spun around him, his chest began to shine even brighter.
From it began to rise a weapon.
A multicolored resplendent crystalline spear erged from his sternum, pushing through flesh that parted without pain, materializing into physical form as it left his body. The weapon was a Kontos spear, its shaft stretching longer than cavalry lances, designed for reach and devastating strikes from positions of superiority. The crystalline material comprising it shifted through every color contained within Quintessence Infiniforce, never settling on a single hue, constantly flowing through the spectrum in patterns.
The spearhead itself was leaf-shaped and broad, edges sharp enough that looking at them seed to cut perception. Runes he didn’t recognize covered the shaft in spiraling configurations, each one pulsing with light that matched the rhythm of his heartbeat. The butt of the spear ended in a crystalline counterweight that balanced the weapon perfectly despite its impossible length.
After it erged fully and floated above Noah’s chest, he raised his hand to grasp it.
Everything around him began to tremble.
The Early Veiled Shore shook. The Three Thousand Realms beyond shook. THE Infiniverse itself seed to recognize what had just been born within its creator’s existence. Noah’s fingers closed around the shaft of the spear, and the mont contact was made, prompts blood before his vision.
|Weapon Manifestation Complete|
|THE Hadean Organ of Civilization has allowed the ergence of THE Hadean Spear of Civilization.|
|THE HADEAN SPEAR OF CIVILIZATION|
|Classification: Civilizational Armant|
|Origin: First weapon to erge from THE Hadean Organ of Civilization. Manifested through the transformation of the Organ within THE Youngest, bearer of Infinity and master of THE Seed of Observable Existence.|
|Description: A Kontos-style crystalline spear composed of solidified Quintessence Infiniforce rged with Observable and Unobservable weavings from THE Infiniverse. The weapon exists as an extension of its wielder’s transford Organ of Civilization rather than a separate construct.|
|This Spear of Civilization holds the entire force of what is Observable and Unobservable within THE Infiniverse, multiplied by a factor of ten, then raised by an exponent of three. The resulting force contained within this weapon cannot be calculated.|
|Wielder Restriction: The only existence capable of bearing this Spear of Civilization is the one who holds THE Hadean Organ of Civilization. All others will find the spear impossible to lift regardless of their accumulated authority. The force contained within would crush any foundations lacking the specific transformation required to bear it.|
|WARNING: The force contained within this weapon is extrely heavy. Exercise caution regarding where you direct the tip of this spear. It is not recomnded to point it toward anything at THE First Scale unless you wish to see their complete decimation. Their Civilizations will collapse. Their foundations will dissolve. Their existence will end before they comprehend what struck them.|
|Effectiveness against beings at THE Second Scale of Existence has not been determined. Testing against Proterozoic Scale entities is recomnded before relying on this weapon in genuine conflict at those heights.|
...!
Noah grasped THE Hadean Spear of Civilization and felt like he’d gained a truly terrifying extension of his power. The force within it pressed against his palm with intensity that would have atomized his hand before his transformation. Now it felt right. Heavy, but manageable. Devastating, but controllable.
But he knew that even this was only the cusp of the iceberg for his Organ of Civilization.
He could sense what was happening inside of it now, perceive aspects of his internal existence that had been hidden before the transformation. There were even grander changes occurring within, configurations that the spear’s ergence had only begun to reveal.
Inside his Organ of Civilization was the internal prison he’d created long ago.
THE Infinite Desmoterion.
He’d sent his own alternate body and identity there, Ozymandias, that hunger-driven portion of himself that he’d separated to cultivate independently.
Alongside Ozymandias waited the trash, repulsive, misshapen, good for nothing, useless foul waste of an Absolute who was THE Living Elental, among other prisoners whose Civilizations he benefited from.
As their Civilizations arose, so would his. That was the nature of the prison he’d designed.
The transformation of the Organ of Civilization had affected this prison imnsely.
New prompts blood before his vision.
|Internal Domain Transformation Detected|
|Due to the ergence of THE Hadean Organ of Civilization, an entire Civilizational Eon of Developnt has been carried out across THE Hadean Desmoterion. All prisoners within have experienced large jumps in power as ti dilation paired with changes within the prison accelerated beyond previous paraters.|
|Progress notes of one prisoner in particular have been pulled forth for review.|
|PRISONER PROGRESS NOTES: OZYMANDIAS|
|Identity: Alternate existence of Master, separated and imprisoned for independent cultivation|
|Civilization: Infinite Hunger|
|Progress During Civilizational Eon of Developnt:|
|Phase One: Ozymandias achieved Uncountable Infinity across all depths of Absolute Sovereignty within the Civilization of Infinite Hunger. This process consud approximately half of the Civilizational Eon.|
|Phase Two: The remaining half of the Civilizational Eon was spent reinforcing and saturating existence with Quintessence Infiniforce and the force of Observable and Unobservable weavings that have perated across THE Hadean Organ of Civilization. Foundations have been thoroughly transford.|
|Current Status: Ozymandias has reached the absolute peak of THE First Scale of Existence. No further advancent is possible without transitioning to THE Second Scale.|
|Recomndation: It is now possible for Ozymandias to establish a Civilizational Anchor to grasp identity as a Proterozoic Scale entity. All prerequisites have been t. The path forward is open.|
|THE Hadean Organ of Civilization has currently generated one additional usage of a Civilizational Eon of Developnt.|
|Shall this usage be utilized to take this alternate portion of your existence to THE Proterozoic Scale?|
|THE Hadean Organ of Civilization has transford sufficiently to allow the release of prisoners within for a maximum duration of ten seconds, available once per hour.|
...!
Noah floated in the air above the Early Veiled Shore, golden sand orbiting him like a galaxy, THE Hadean Spear of Civilization gripped in his hand, prompts declaring capabilities he hadn’t anticipated stretching before his vision.
Ozymandias had reached the peak of THE First Scale. That alternate portion of himself, cultivating independently within his prison, had achieved everything THE First Scale could offer. And now a choice presented itself.
Should he use the Civilizational Eon of Developnt to push Ozymandias into THE Proterozoic Scale?
A portion of himself at THE Second Scale while the rest remained at THE First.
Noah smiled as he looked at the spear in his hand.
THE Proterozoic Scale lood ahead!.
