[QUOTE="Wrahn, post: 2505770, member: 9191"] Nos walked in the “What Isn’t.” Here he was unafraid of the consequences of unleashing his power, reality would not bubble or implode, because here there was no reality. He struck out at the being, whom part of was known as Cyst, shredding and scattering it. It broke the umbilical cord between it and Cyst and fled from Nos. Still, Nos could not close the hole, such effects would be more detrimental to that reality then him leaving it open, so he sealed it from this side. He contemplated the meaning of this. The portal network would stand as a testament for foolish mages who tamper with realms beyond their understanding. Cyst would never again manage to gather the power to leave what it had become. It would still hunger, still make the journeys through the portal system an exercise in terror, but Shara’s creation was safe from it. Nos felt Tocho search for the “What Isn’t” as he had once done himself. It pleased him that others were walking down the path of enlightenment that he once walked. Once Tocho failed to find a physical manifestation of the “What Isn’t”, for in truth there was none, he would go to him and tell him of the four barriers, tell him of the price, and if he was willing to pay it, guide him to [I]know[/I] the “What Isn’t”. And then, Tocho “found” something that did not exist. Too late did Nos realize that Tocho was using a manifestation of his divine will to force his cognition into “finding” the “What Isn’t.” A being that has not prepared himself for what he was witnessing, standing in the midst of something he could not comprehend, Nos felt Tocho’s mind crack. Greatly saddened, Nos contemplated withdrawal from Shara’s creation. He represented a mystery to them and as young as they were, as impulsive as they were, they wished to understand without [I]knowing[/I]. Not realizing that you can never get something for nothing. For now, Nos watched. [/QUOTE]
