An Unexpected(?) Anomaly

[Carn_Val]

A cold, sinking feeling, like when the Anomaly first came to being, pulls Carn back into consciousness, only this time, something else is happening.

“My name is Omni. This is not the world you know. This is the Omniverse. You interest me, so I have made you part of it. The Omniverse is a place that reflects the wishes of those who are part of it. But! There are rules. I will explain them only once, so listen carefully.”

Omni hands you a glimmering orb in which all the colors of the rainbow coalesce. “This is Omnilium. It’s what ties the Omniverse together. Without it, you are nothing. With it, anything you desire can be yours. But you will need more than this. If you desire it enough, you will find it. You will find that using it comes naturally. Just think of what you desire most.

“You will not be alone in the Omniverse. There are others. Of course, they, too desire Omnilium. Do not fear death. For as long as you interest me, you will be reborn.

“That’s all you need to know right now. You’ll figure out the rest soon enough. I’ll be watching … and waiting.”

Without a heads up, the room started to disintegrate, walls, floor, ceiling, all disappearing. Before Carn knew what could happen, weightlessness started to take over, then, the Anomaly was falling.

"Not this again."

What replaced the walls and ceiling was a vast expanse of pure white. Carn looks back up at the figure, he was floating motionlessly, then suddenly, he looked down at the Anomaly, with the look as if he's saying "welcome' one more time before his white form meld with the sky. Carn's descent was fast, a few seconds later, the prime seemed to be already on the floor. A floor that seemed to extend to infinity in all directions, with the horizon as a guide to its edges, not to mention what seemed to be towering objects scattered around Carn, equidistant to each other. What the prime didn't realize was that the very base the Anomaly was sitting on was a fountain, and a large one at that. Some sort of liquid flows from it akeen to that sphere the white figure called Omni had given.

Omnillion was it? Was that what he said? Oh well, I better get down from here before someone sees me.

Carn stood, eyes squinting at the eight objects ways ahead. With the precision and grace of a well-trained Anomaly, Carn had no trouble descending the fountain, only to have seen it change into something else, the moment the Anomaly looked away. The fountain turned into a hill, or a mound, something of a large bulging landmass ways smaller than a mountain. In the middle of processing what happened, a brief flash in the sky caused Carn to tilt a head upwards, only to realize it was Tremor, but that was not the only thing the Anomaly had realized, Carn realized it was going to land on the Anomaly's general direction. Quickly, pulling thoughts together, Carn jumps back as far away as possible, only for the large cleaver to land mere inches between the prime's knees. A close call that could have cost Carn something dear.

Gah! He..he.he...huh?, confused at the gulping of air and panting, Carn had no idea what to make of it. Drops of sweat started lining up which caused more confusion.
What's happening to me? Is this something new? Is this what one experiences in the world? Carn seemed amused. Satisfied with the surpise, Carn took a bit of momentum to build up and eventually pulling Tremor from the ground. The Anomaly wonders where the other part of the pair, Trauma, the trusty scythe, went. Oddly enough, Trauma had already been with the Anomaly all that time and had only realized it later after all the new things started coming one after the other. With both weapons checked out, eyes open and sporting a large grin, Carn sets forth into the new world.
