Loe
I am the alpha and the omega.
Where the world they knew collided with the ones they didn’t, that was where darkness fed into existence. The spectrum of good and evil intact because the most heinous beings never stopped to wonder where they fell on it. Did every good deed really earn a punishment? Was there reward to hard work? No strange spectral wraith or haunting wailer would argue one way or the other, just as the sweeping embrace of oblivion didn’t mind where on the chart you happened to align yourself. The all-encompassing dimension of the void had no objections to making deals with saints, as they were no longer saints by the time this option would seem viable. The truth of the matter was always evident by the fear someone felt the first time the abyss made contact: There would be no redemption for them.
Philiedus Loe existed, and in such, it corrupted. It had shared in the madness of the abyss, having felt every slithering tendril and corrupting force shift and writhe over it’s being since the moment of conception; it was a part of the great machine of madness by birth and right. The ravaged minds and bodies of countless victims all made for study, for there was a great much to learn from the lesser beings of the universe and Loe had been there for much of it. The question wasn’t whether Loe enjoyed the existence it shared in, but rather it was capable of understanding the impact it left. Was it selflessness or selfishness that drove Loe to seek the children of the elder races as worthy vessels? A dark path could be the way home for some, but the lonely end for others – so who was there fit to decide the truth?
Many would resist Loe. Few would manage to fend the being off with willpower alone, but those who accepted the gift received exactly what they asked for. The abyss had no need for gimmicks or lies. It only needed vessels and from those, it would earn a place in the galaxies of present. Every long dead star had been home to planets the void had visited, with each of those hosting countless carriers of the foreign malignance. Each had purpose, serving as the eyes, ears and hands of the Great Old Ones. Loe was a hand and his vessels were fingers, from which history would be made. Wars declared and ended, miracles offered and hope stolen; the outcome all based on the will of the ancient ones. Loe did not question this because Loe was unable to do so.
Loe did have feelings though. Crude, rudimentary things that acted more like numbed appendages than anything else. Love, hate, jealousy, fear. Loe would tell you whom it’s favorite vessel had been, but not why they were special in comparison to the others. It could tell you why it chose it’s victims when it fed, but the reasons would seem strange. It was known to be a jealous being, but only when truly threatened by the existence of another, and it feared the ancients. It had seen the birth of this universe after the destruction of the last. There was good reason to fear them, but also to be in awe. Maybe that was the most impressive part of the being Loe – it was capable of true admiration for those it deemed worthy. In the past, the vessels had varied from barely sentient amoebas to wandering behemoths the size of small moons. Male, female, other... A sea of different souls that had all been rightly chosen, despite what or who they may have been in that life.
Humanity came in time. Springing up like a fungus on the surface of a planet no one had bothered to acknowledge, they seemed to rise to power at a speed unknown to much of the multiverse. The Abyss watched, curious, because there had been no such race in their time observing who rose to power so quickly. They had no natural predators, yet from humanity, predators would mutate. Daemons of a low dimension, Vampires from the dead, and Therians from the very people fearing the wilds. All these things were so perfectly placed, they would thrive and spread just as humanity first had, but with different rules in place. Stronger to some degree, but weak to the most mundane of things. Sunlight and faith in a makeshift God, and even silver. The void would be laughing by the time the newest being would find its way to the world of humans, though this special race would be the one Loe took special interest in.
The Fae were different from the other offshoots of humanity. They never had been human, yet they were made from humanity just as the rest had been. They were the embodiments of dreams, desires, wants and needs. To be Fae was a mix between being the hero of the story and the ultimate villain, with good reason to be both and neither. As a whole, the creatures wanted nothing more than to live in their separate civilization several dimensions away, yet they were cursed with the curiosity of man, and in such made the mistake of mingling with humanity. Loe watched as these hedonistic creatures soaked up the culture and the history of the creators, longing to be part of this short-lived collection of apes, yet were always unable. The Fae lived eons if they were content to remain in Arcadia, yet they seemed to die off like flies while they were on earth. Loe longed for them, for their plight, because they seemed to deserve better than a filthy mortal death. They were beautiful to Loe, as humans found butterflies beautiful, and the being resented every other being off the abyss that was able to have one as their vessel.
But in time, Loe would be given what it wanted. A vessel fit for Loe was one by the name of Chance Rilo Vereaux, and the being instantly felt connected to the frail fae. Chance was young then, barely more than a fledgling and Loe had to take her while she cried in the throes of endless pain brought by her first evolution. How delicate Loe had been, words so sweet and promising that no one could ever deny him; this would be the one the being was given and there would be no opportunity for failure to arise. To Chance, Loe was the savior willing to bear her burdens and slay the dragons for her – but to Loe, Chance was the experience of a lifetime. How the being loved her then as she bled on the dirty, cracked cement of that Tokyo Park. Graffiti lining the walls of the tunnel they were in, her body splintered and filthy with changing limbs and regenerating tissue trying to keep up, half scabbed over her pulsing carcass. She had asked if it would hurt, but Loe laughed, thinking how he could have said yes and she still would have succumbed. It didn’t though.
Loe would never hurt Chance.
