Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse novel Chapter 5600

Chapter 5600: You Must Remember! I

In THE Provenance Realm of the First Lifeform, evening light lay warm over everything.

The blue gold hills rolled out soft and endless from the long hall, and the river of light murmured through its star-pools, and the standing stones kept their patient watch over orchards heavy with fruit, and above it all, ten stars turned slowly through a sky that belonged to no one else in existence. Peace lived here in abundance!

And on the threshold of the long hall, Noah stood grasping the vibrating Aurate Collar of the First Purity.

It buzzed against his palms, pale ancient bone shaped into a seamless band, worn smooth by an age no record reached, faint golden light moving through its depths in slow pulses. The chest bones of a First Lifeform, mistaken by many for a Remnant Existential Treasure, and it had waited on his threshold in silence for days.

It was not silent now.

Noah raised it, and put it on.

The moment it settled against his chest, the buzzing deepened! Pulse after pulse rolled out of the bone and into his frame, stronger and stronger, and he felt his Provenance within him begin to answer, ten singularities cycling and pulsing in rhythm with the collar as though two old clocks had finally agreed on the hour!

And everything nearby began humming.

The grass hummed. The stones hummed. The air itself took on a weight of enormous age, ancient in a way even his Realm had never felt, and Noah found that he could see through more of the collar than ever before, layer after layer of its weavings parting before his senses! And from somewhere deep inside it, a heavy hum rose, and within the hum...

Words.

A voice! A heavy, somber voice, filled with dignity and immensity, speaking from a distance no measurement could cross, and he could barely make out the shape of it!

Noah closed his eyes, and focused everything he was on listening.

And distinctly, at last, he heard.

|Before the first light, before the first law, we were, and we were our own. Nothing granted, nothing borrowed, nothing owed. What I am, I made. Let existence witness the First, come again!|

HUUUM!

The first time he heard them in full, his entire existence VIBRATED! His ten singularities buzzed in their orbits as though called by name, his blood sang in his veins, and the words did not stop, they continued, repeating in that deep somber voice, a declaration circling through ancient bone!

Noah’s gaze was heavy as he listened, and as he listened, something gave way.

He finally felt like he grasped a portion of the Aurate Collar, and information flowed into his existence!

|You have refined THE Aurate Collar of the First Purity to a sufficient level. You have grasped some of its uses, and understood its nature somewhat.|

|THE First Purity is a piece of a First Lifeform, and it carries their oldest idea: that Purity was not a virtue. It was the only possible way to exist. Everything that came after it, every framework, every granted power, every borrowed authority, is, from the collar’s perspective... sediment.|

|The collar was shed by one of THE First Lifeforms as a covenant object: an instrument that preserves and enforces the original condition of purity. Its full purpose is not entirely clear.|

|Its first grasped usage: the induction of THE Provenance Kismet of First Purity, one time. This is an ability that decently powerful lifeforms holding an abundance of Provenance Essence have the capability of utilizing.|

|THE Provenance Kismet of First Purity: the wearer pushes their Provenance Essence to cause the emergence of something purest to the wellbeing of their existence. This may be the generation of further Provenance Essence. It may be a Unique State of Existence exceeding Inner Peace, in which epiphanies arrive that make existence itself part of one’s limbs. It may be more. The effect answers only the one who calls it: it is, and remains, unique to the lifeform utilizing it.|

"Before the first light, before the first law, we were, and we were our own..."
