My Dear Brother... - Part 1
"A long time ago, after the 'Naming of Extroyd'..."
"Luciel, the 'savior of the universe,' had just taken the throne he himself had built."
"Faced with so much chaos and upheaval, he had begun his plan to reshape that decadent universe, but to do so, he had to 'distract' all those entities and deities, until he thinks about what to do with them."
"Like a bad joke aimed at Tatsu, the symbol of wishes, who betrays him, he ushered in the era of 'The Last Will'."
"He granted everyone one wish, promising there would be no consequences to asking."
'It doesn't matter who you are or what you ask for, as long as it pleases me, or the outcome seems interesting, I will gladly grant it!'
"Many wishes and requests were fulfilled, many gained great power, others inflated their egos and blinded themselves with illusion, and when they least expected it, they found themselves trapped before the 'savior'."
"In truth, all of this was a way for Luciel to reveal the true faces of all those who called themselves 'allies'."
"He killed and sealed away all those who posed a threat, under the illusion that they would truly get what they wanted... But even knowing this, no one refused the blood on their hands."
'I told you, Mack, they're like rats that won't refuse cheese, even if there's obviously a mousetrap.'
"But still, there were those who really weren't bad at all..."
"One of those who made a request was Stella, one of the entities that belonged to Astraeos."
"Known as 'Children of the Return', this race was extremely rare, created by the 'Concept of Being'; when an Astraeos died, it returned, with the same memories, same body, same being, as long as the star they were born on was still shining, it would turn into a supernova and they would be reborn."
'Oh, I beg you, just like the humans I love and envy so much, let me have children.'
"Astraeos couldn't have children; they didn't even know the concept of giving life. However, Stella, who was very close to Mack, the symbol of humans, fell in love with that concept."
"Luciel was intrigued; he found the wish, really... good, and wanted to help her."
'I can't make you have children, like humans do; to do that, I'd have to take away your immortality, and I don't think that's what you want... But I know what it's like to create and raise a child, I love my beloved children.'
"Pissing his own finger, he let a drop of his blood drip, that drop molded itself into an enormous crystal; the wish."
'Therefore, I will give you the son you wish; place a drop of your blood on your wish, and he will grant you our son of your own blood.'
"After that, Stella thanked her profusely and left with her wish."
"But.. she didn't use it."
"Because she didn't want just one child, but children; she wanted to be able to have several children, but that wasn't a possible wish..."
'The family I saw had more than one son... A cheerful girl and a quiet boy... their dynamic was so fun, so... human! ...I only have one wish... Just one child... that's not what I really want... If only... it were two.'
"And then, the entity, with Luciel's blood on its hands, broke it in two, and dripped two drops of his own blood."
"And from that single wish, two beautiful babies were born, a smiling little girl and a quiet little boy."
"This was the birth of Lune and Lume."
So, I shouldn't be telling this story without even having finished telling Extroyd's ending, but whatever.
I love the story of Lune and Lume!!
Lune is the son who looks most like Luciel :D
And obviously, it's being told by my dear angel, the storyteller, MM!Luck!!
This is the first part of it, but I'm already excited for the second part, which I have no idea when I'll post, so I'm not promising anything.
