As the blinding light swallowed me whole, my consciousness unraveled like sand through my trembling fingers. In that moment of utter dissolution, the boundaries between existence and oblivion blurred. I sensed nothing but an overwhelming emptiness—a void that stretched infinitely in all directions, a blank canvas awaiting its first, fateful stroke.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRplPTAkeHD
When I came to, or rather, when I awoke in this strange limbo, I found myself standing in a vast expanse of nothingness. It was a realm neither defined by darkness nor illuminated by light. Instead, it was an endless plain of quiet potential—a silent witness to the birth of something entirely new.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7jZKCa5DM
Before me, as if suspended in the ether, floated three orbs of swirling light. Each orb radiated a distinct hue—one shone with the cool, steady glimmer of blue; another burned with a fierce, passionate red; and the third pulsed with a gentle, luminescent green. They moved in a deliberate, hypnotic dance around a single, imposing object: a book, shaped with uncanny precision and pulsating as though it harbored a life of its own.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBvVD26FFl
Drawn by a force I could neither understand nor resist, I extended my hand. For a fleeting heartbeat, uncertainty held me back—yet curiosity, insatiable and raw, overpowered caution. The moment my fingertips grazed the book's cover, a torrent of unfathomable knowledge burst into my mind. The information, sharp and overwhelming, seared itself into every fiber of my being until my head throbbed with the weight of revelations.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXSRFa8KbT
A series of cryptic inscriptions and symbols unfolded before my inner eye:131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnW7zTQiBI
[ Codex of Creation ]Known also as the God's Handbook. A unique artifact that grants the bearer the power to inscribe stories, forge imprints, and alter fate itself.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCc1eCDmIQ
My heartbeat thundered in my ears, a frantic drum against the silence of the void. Cold sweat dripped down my spine as the Codex's pulse synced with my own. The revelation left me breathless—a sacred text delivered at the very moment I teetered on the brink of death. Yet, there was no time for idle wonder. The three orbs, now drawn inexorably toward the Codex, converged and merged into its very essence. The book's surface shivered as new words began to etch themselves into its ancient pages, as if ink materializing on pristine parchment from some unseen quill.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMiwc5tJvt
With trembling anticipation, I opened the Codex. The text appeared in a solemn, otherworldly script that seemed to resonate with the pulse of the cosmos:131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QG2SG1vTb

Questions swirled in my mind—dense and multifaceted, like an incantation half-remembered. Before I could even begin to process these new revelations, a voice emerged—a voice so calm and devoid of human warmth that it seemed to echo from deep within my soul.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn35cvSvgf
The voice that answered was neither male nor female, a chorus of whispers and static.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpcfZEa24u
[Designation: Codex Spirit. Primary function: To serve. Secondary function: To survive.] 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MdmfilqWW
[Query: Do you wish to rename this unit?]131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbUs44xJXj
I stiffened, scanning the featureless void for any sign of another presence. Yet there was nothing but that disembodied voice—a spectral sound resonating as if born from the very core of my being.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkT9LqTK2p
"…You can speak?" I managed, my voice tentative, the uncertainty in my heart laid bare.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEez43wEg7d
[ I can. Fear not—I am bound to you. Your death is my death. Trust must be earned, but I ask you to grant me that chance. ]131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXPZD4WIqH
Kael blinked. "You sound like a machine."131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXjwLnhMix
[Correction: I am a guide. But a name…] For the first time, her voice wavered, almost wistful. 131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD7IUBz5qB
[A name would make me more.]131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HV3zZFWQt
Something in that measured cadence, so oddly sincere, eased the tension that gripped me. My shoulders relaxed ever so slightly, and I dared to press on.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67Q3iSNVWi
[ Would you care to name me, Host? ]131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGUbPfznp7
The request struck me like a spark in the darkness. Name it? I closed my eyes in contemplation as the silence stretched. Then, with a clarity that seemed fated, a name surfaced in the depths of my mind.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIfcbCKqj9
"Elia. I'll call you Elia."131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzgqTJM86D
[ Elia… Thank you, Host. I shall bear this name with pride and serve you to the utmost of my ability. ]131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlObVbQgJN
The voice softened further, as if warmed by the familiarity of a name finally given. A small smile tugged at the corners of my lips—a rare moment of solace amid the storm of revelations.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJDWxZKDfn
Gathering courage, I inquired, "Since you've alowed me to question, can you tell me—what exactly is an Arcanna? And how did I come to possess these three that you mentioned?"131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsU9q4PFwoL
Elia paused, as though the weight of the question demanded careful thought.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJP8TH6YKg
[Arcanna are not mere powers—they are covenants,] Elia said, as the Codex flickered to a page titled Arcanna. [To awaken one, you must become its myth. The Earth Will demands sacrifice. The Sun Will demands ambition. The Moon Will demands secrets] she finished with with much tension.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbSwcX4HRq
Each word sank into me like a slow, inexorable tide. The nature of my destiny was shifting in ways I had never imagined.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9q9msPVzL
"And what about these beings—Earth Will, Sun Will, Moon Will? Who or what are they? And what does it mean when it speaks of 'The First Story'?"131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoeBPEvQED
[ Regrettably, I possess no further data on these entities—their nature may well transcend my current authority. As for 'The First Story'… it signifies that you are unbound by fate. No fate thread ties you to a preordained destiny. You must, therefore, carve your path through the crucible of experience. ]131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUHVZM6d65
Her tone turned grave, the gravity of fate unmistakable in every syllable.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2nvqJWBkx
[ If I may offer counsel, Host, consider veiling the truth of your Codex. Refer to it as a Codex of Myths instead of the Codex of Creation. I have also used the bit of my authority to influence the awakening ceremony for it to show a Codex of Myths identification. For your imprint, you can tell them what it is since it is your personal information and no one would ask about that. This subtle renaming may help deflect dangerous attention, and attract the interest of powerful factions—like the Tower de Sanctum—that might protect you and your future progeny. ]131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CB4acHkWJ
Her advice, so laced with caution and wisdom, resonated deeply. I nodded slowly, absorbing the profound implications of her words.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHmgH5Lo6c
"…Thank you, Elia. Your guidance is more valuable than you know."131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAuZDf4EC0
[ It is my eternal purpose to serve you, Host. ]131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYFkGDEANV
Before I could pose any further inquiries, a sudden, invisible force yanked at my very essence—a vacuum that distorted the space around me. The void trembled and the void fractured like glass, and I fell—but sideways, reality's scream clawing at my ears. My hands burned with phantom starlight.131Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLc5Ae6Zu4Y
I closed my eyes, surrendering to the inexorable tide of transformation, knowing that the secrets of the Codex, the dormant Arcanna, and the fact that the fate of me shall be opened to me in the future.
