In the higher reaches of existential engineering, it was understood that while THE First Cause was the singular, erupting ocean that made way for an entire THE Observable Existence, it was comprised of countless smaller THE Causes that functioned as the currents and the laws of that reality.
THE Desidero Cause governed the mechanics of wanting and desire, while THE Superbius Cause provided the structural integrity of sovereignty, yet there were others that THE Creature could feel humming within the Gaps...THE Letum Cause, which dictated the inevitability of endings, and THE Aeternus Cause, which anchored the static configurations of existence.
These smaller THE Causes were the threads that THE Gilded Ones utilized to sew their wills into the fabric of reality, drawing upon the specific weavings of THE First Cause to bolster their own engineered foundations.
THE Creature focused his gaze on a roaring THE Superbius Gilded One whose muscular physique was a testament to the vanity of his house, seeing his body differently compared to any other being as he peered through the golden skin to witness the glistening organs and the silver-etched bones.
He saw the seas of THE Observable Force moving through the target’s vessels and identified the clusters where Infinity was anchored, tracing the shimmering threads back to THE Causes from which the Gilded warrior was currently drawing his suffocating power.
With a motion that was both beautiful and horrifying, THE Creature swung his multicolored sword, the blade wreathed in the heavy and unyielding obsidian light of THE Primordial Source.
The obsidian light acted as a terminal shears, for as the blade passed through the local space, it proceeded to sever the metaphysical connections where this Gilded One was drawing his authority!
THE Creature cut him off from THE Causes, from THE Infinite, and even from the flow of THE Observable Force, leaving the warrior with nothing but his own engineered Ego to sustain him against the darkness of THE Undefined Gaps.
SQUELCH!
The multicoloured sword passed through the chest of THE Gilded One with a wet, heavy sound of tearing meat and cracking bone, and obsidian hooks formed upon the blade to anchor its position within the target’s foundations.
As THE Creature pulled the sword out with a violent wrench, a glistening heart and several iridescent organs erupted from the chest cavity in a spray of stellar light and crimson-gold blood!
THE Creature opened his mouth and allowed his own gravitational authority to pull these organs toward him, and he proceeded to brutally chew and devour them right away, the metallic tang of Gilded essence filling his senses while the crimson-gold fluid sputtered down his chin.
The Gilded One roared out in a mixture of shock and rising rage as his heart was consumed, but before THE Creature could enjoy the taste of his victory, three other of THE Gilded Ones layered multiple THE Pulses of THE Scales upon his position from above.
BOOM!
THE Creature’s body was smashed down into the depths of the Gaps with enough force to shatter any common Ordovician Paleozoic Scale entity, and he went crashing into the solidified and inverted obsidian mountain ranges that served as the floor of the Undefinition!
"That’s one. Are the rest of you...ready to contribute, or are you going to continue standing there while I keep my... Momentum!"
BOOM!
