Therian limped towards the cliff in as he heard the shouts of his pursuers. They were trying to sell him off as a slave after his father left him with a mountain of debt. As Therian looked over the cliff, he started to think about his life, how he was born with a rare and incurable illness making his body much weaker than usual and how his father had abused his mother so much that she put herself into an asylum. As he looked down into the darkness of the cliff, he thought that he would rather be dead than to be sold off and jumped.
Soon he felt a sense of familiarity and warmth inside him, as if this was his home but how could he be home, it had already been sold off to pay for a fraction of his debt? Then he opened his eyes, seeing an endless void stretching out for thousands of kilometres with no end. "where am I" he thought as he stared into the endless void "didn't I just jump off the cliff?" "Of course you did my child. This is the death plane where all lost souls are invited. I had seen your horrible demise and as the saying goes, if a child goes through more tragedy's than four, they'll turn rotten down to their core. This saying was made because souls turn into vengeful spirits after having too many tragic deaths and having too many vengeful spirits under my care can get me fired by the council. Now you are on your fourth tragedy, each worse then the last so I'll make it up to you by giving you a great life! Now any questions?" The more Therian heard, the more shocked he got. Gods? Spirits? Council? All this information was better than living a thousand great lives for him. When he was still alive, his favourite thing to do was to just go on his phone and research as many things as possible. Knowledge was his escape from his life and he soaks everything piece of knowledge up like a sponge. This new revelation of gods and souls intrigued him like no other subject he ever found but he also thought of his new life. It's supposed to be great right? But what would define a great life? Money? Power? Happiness? All of this intrigued him and he felt like a ticking bomb, how he felt like he was barely holding back from asking a thousand questions to this god but the god could feel this and knowing he only had limited time with Therian, he used his power to calm Therian down so he could start with the reincarnation process. "Now we can proceed with the reincarnation process" said the god in a serious tone " the process to get reincarnated might sound easy but every small thing you do in the reincarnation process could have horrible consequences on your future life so do not do anything unless I specifically tell you okay? Now for the reincarnation process you can choose one item from your old world that you feel most connected with and the history and item will help determine your family, race and everything else so what do you choose?"
This question stumped Therian, he had never had an item he felt connected to except his laptop but that was mostly because of the information on the laptop until it hit him. His late great great grandfather was the only one who really loved Therian, caring and giving Therian gifts on a daily basis and in his will, he had left Therian 2 things, a very large sum of money which had been taken by his father and an unassuming necklace with him, his great grandfather and a mysterious cloaked man. This item was the only thing he really cared for as it was his a personal gift from his grandfather. "I choose the necklace I got from my great grandfather" said Therian and then something amazing happened. The endless void suddenly had white lights everywhere which reminded him of a stary night. These bits of white started to fly towards him at an alarming speed but arrived just at his neck where they slowly formed a necklace. Therians and his curious nature wanted to ask a thousand question again but he knew this his was on a tight schedule so he walked into the tunnel of reincarnation and handed the god his necklace. The necklace was put into a strange device on as a panel appeared. The god quickly typed on the panel and the tunnel started glowing. As this happened, Therian found a panel in front of him too. It looked very different from the gods one though as his looked like glass with a light blue background.
(Welcome host to the beta system, please enter hosts name) Therian was scared to touch the panel as the god had told him to not touch anything unless he specifically told him but the curiosity got the better of him and to wrote Therian. (Special hosts name found checking for inheritors bloodline. Inheritors bloodline found, upgrading system from beta system to completed system, the comprehension system. Upgrade completed, changing details for reincarnation.) As the last screen popped up, the gods strange machine started to move. This made the god confused until he saw Therian doing something with his fingers "Therian stop! You're messing with the machine!" But it was too late as Therian was reincarnated away, into a new world.
