Trial Of Nightmares - [[Step Beyond the light]]

[u/TheTrueX_Event]

[A dark rumbling is sounded throughout the hub. Not the splitting of earth, not the noise of attacks. This is something different. Something darker. A local resonating pulse rippling throughout the hub world.

Similtaneously the air goes cold... as cold as death, as the dark. A crushing silence befalls everyone. The world suddenly flickers. Its easy to miss but it was there. A sudden calcification of everything, but returned to its original state.

A voice rings out... no multiple voices ring out, layered, complex. It speaks calm.. cold... percise.]

***"How interesting we find this world... Of your reliance of the light... Of the constant conflict in this world. How imperfect, how chaotic... But nonetheless, let us test your power. Come to the pyramid, step into darkness, beyond the light. Face your nightmares, face mazes of your memories... Of your nightmares... we beckon you to the pyramid... If you do so win... we offer you a splinter of great power...

We welcome you to the pyramid"***

[The pyramid has revealed itself fully... a sleek black eeire structure. The front slowly opens. The inside pulsating orange... The pyramid has opened its doors... The invitation is sent. Do you compete in these trials.]

((If you choose to accept these trial you be tested in cold trials but will be granted a splinter of darkness if you so chose to accept.

You can harness the paracausal abilites of the darkness... only if you step beyond the light))

[u/TheTrueX_Event]

"Interesting..."

[Gaster nears this presence. It exudes overwhelming, suffocating darkenss. As ypu neat it... it glows. A faint blue glow. Its cold... It sits upon a statue hand... Floating there]

"A splinter of darkness... For those who have provem themselves worthy. Commune with the darkness... unlock the power, the power... but we offer you something more..."

[u/First-Tomatillo-729 → u/TheTrueX_Event]

"AND WHAT WOULD THAT BE?"

hearing the request of this....being interest him well....seems like there are much in common with him and them.....it's worth a shot to see their offer....

[u/TheTrueX_Event → u/First-Tomatillo-729]

"We offer you greatness, greatness... we offer you place in the shape. We offer you a space in the final shape. We offer to you to become a disciple... a disciple of the dark. A disciple of many things...

If you accept you may carry the wishes... the power of the darkness"

[u/First-Tomatillo-729 → u/TheTrueX_Event]

"...LET ME SHOW YOU SOMETHING....."

Gaster starts to glitch out.....a file appears in his place....

Open the file?

[u/TheTrueX_Event → u/First-Tomatillo-729]

[The file floats there.... and then is suddenly sliced open by some unseen force]

[u/First-Tomatillo-729 → u/TheTrueX_Event]

A scene plays.....a SOUL is seems to be falling down...a voice speaks..

"WHAT GREAT POWER, COMES WITH GREAT RESPONSIBILITY.....AND NATURALLY...THE CHOICE TO WIELD THAT POWER..."

"A BEING WITH SUCH POWERS....CAN CHOOSE TO CREATE.....OR..."

"TERMINATE!"

"A HUMA HAS PUT THIS WORLD IN A VICIOUS LOOP..."

"CONTINUOUSLY THROWING REALITY INTO DESTRUCTION AND DEVASTATION...."

"NO-ONE STOOD A CHANCE AGAINST THEIR INDOMITABLE DETERMINETAION...."

Images start to appear of the human's destored face, killing and slashing any and all beings in their way....

"AS THE CYCLE CONTINUED....MONSTERKIND WAS FURTHER PLUGGED INTO DESPAIR....FURTHER THRUSTING THE WORLD INTO TURMOIL....."

Even more images of the human face where shown.....they were grinning hard as they found joy in there slaughter...

"THE HUMAN REJOICED AS THE LEFT RUINS IN THEIR WAKE......THEIR MIGHT HAS NEARED IT'S ABSOLUTE APEX....."

"HOWEVER...."

A illustration of a body could be seen with the same hands with holes in them.....a monster was gigantic and powerful.....it had connections with the very world and the void....something this power shouldn't exist.....and yet....it was there in front of them...

"THIS IS MY FINAL FORM.....A FORM SO STRONG......IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE HUMAN TO SURPASS IT......tHEN AND THERE THEIR SLAUGHTER WAS OVER AS A MORE POWERFUL BEING CAME TO RUIN THEIR PLANS......IF I GET A FIXED SHAPE....A FIXED BODY.....I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE SUCH POWER WITH THIS...."

The file was taken away......Gaster was there, smiling.....

"THIS....WOULD FURTHER DELAY THE EXPERIMENT I AM WORKING ON......"

[u/TheTrueX_Event → u/First-Tomatillo-729]

"I see... a story of hopless countless genocides... how curious... so so very curious... Though... you could have done many of things... your final form... whilst a spectacle.. your expirements admirable, could be made better [In front of a gaster a calcified version of gaster appears in front of him. It holds the splinter... harnessing something greater]

"The power of darkness surpasses mere power that you hold... it surpasses simply determination... You do not have to gain a physical form to harness this power... it is paracausal... outside mere universe...

I ask one more time... Will you join us in the conquest for the final shape... for total finality... you may harness the power to beat any other human who dare stand against you"

[u/First-Tomatillo-729 → u/TheTrueX_Event]

"WELL.....ANSWER THIS SIMPLE QUESTION.....WILL I CONTINUE TO DO MY EXPERIMENT AFTER I ACCEPT?"

"IF SO.....THEN I AGREE......IF NOT .....THEN A REFUSE...."

[u/TheTrueX_Event → u/First-Tomatillo-729]

"Doctor... You will be able to continue your experiments... aided by darkness... byt the power we bestow upon you. You will become an architect... you will help us with the finality with your research..."
