Metamorphosis

Shock swept through Nial when he regained his consciousness.

Springing up from the bed in a sitting position, he began to breathe heavily as he clutched his chest, or to be precise the area near the Odyssey seed.

'Was that another dream?' Nial wondered, not sure what exactly he had just seen.

Yes, he had definitely seen something odd and mysterious!

Because of that, Nial was sure that it was just a dream, yet, oddly enough, this dream was similar to the one he had lived through for years until he encountered the Goddess on top of the palace stairs.

In the dream he had just woken up from, he had just been a curious spectator, witnessing a battlefield that was littered with millions of cruelly torn apart corpses.

However, that was not the weirdest part because Nial was sure that it was his battlefield, his army, his lands, everything belonged to none other but HIM!
