Koren laughed inside as his bladed body cut through the gaps between dimensions, flinging past the millions of bright stars, swirling, dusty galaxies, planets of all shapes, sizes and beautiful, shifting color schemes, clouds of rock-filled nebulae and many other extravagant celestial bodies as he flew along in his sword form, the fourteen crystals of power radiating from the golden-plated cross-guard and pommel as the magically infused, engraved steel blade cut through the minuscule, imperceptible gaps that linked every universe together.
Koren had gone through this journey a million times over, and yet it never ceased to amaze him, always seeing a billion different, unknown dimensions each time that each had brand new sights to see and explore. Even revisiting dimensions never felt like a chore, seeing the brilliant new colors splashed across the dark void and the newly created brightly-colored lights all around.
As Koren passed from one dimension to the next, the brightly-colored gemstones guiding him on his journey, he passed by the one dimension out of all he'd seen that just seemed to be just out of reach of his vast knowledge of millions of years of travelling through time in order to be in multiple dimensions that needed his skills at the same time. This dimension seemed to have a barrier around it that even at full strength, Koren still couldn't pierce its veil. The whole thing seemed very ominous, with hundreds of beings beings somehow being teleported through the barrier on a daily basis. Sometimes, the force grabbing these chosen beings would strip an entire planet, while other times it would skim through and pick one in billions, specifically choosing them out for seemingly no reason.
Whatever this thing was, it seemed to be creating a very strange collection of sorts, sometimes plucking war heroes or creatures with unique abilities, although sometimes, for no apparent reason other than to exercise the fact that it can, the... "thing" ...whatever it was, would take a handful of ordinary beings native to their planet, with no special abilities at all.
It all seemed very strange and just plain unusual. Koren was contemplating these thoughts when all of a sudden, he came to an abrupt halt, and darkness enveloped his metal, bladed body.
A white, pure white humanoid creature appeared in front of him, completely featureless except for a bright grin that spread across its face.
The being spoke with an authoritative tone, but it also seemed welcoming and inviting at the same time, and yet at times, Koren thought as though it had no tone at all, and simply was a voice.
The being extended a hand with an orb swirling and spinning with the colors of the rainbow, similar to a planet Koren had seen at some point, the bright colors constantly changing and mixing across the surface.
The prospect of being able to create anything he desired sounded interesting, although Koren had some doubts as to what he would do with it, being a sword and all.
Koren took a moment to process this.... He had just been pulled into a dimension by a strange being that tells him that there are others in this universe as well, and most likely he gave them the same treatment. Could this potentially be the blocked-off dimension?
The being faded away, leaving Koren to contemplate what had just happened. The darkness however, remained.
Koren clunked against what he could only assume to be the ground, and yet, he couldn't see any thing with his senses. The Bejeweled Blade checked himself for a moment and found that all of his gems were missing, as per usual when he entered a new universe in order to aid its inhabitants, and as per usual, he could do nothing more other than wait for someone to come by and pick up the hilt of his legendary, time-travelling blade.

Quote:“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."

Quote:“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."
