Pov Hela's:
As we entered the atmosphere of the spectral planet I noticed the change, it was something that few people would be able to notice, but as a Necromancer I noticed, the breaking of the laws of reality, the very foundations of nature were broken, and distorted, they were corrupted into new laws as if this world were the exception to this universe.
In this place the energies of nature were not in harmony, each form of energy was properly separated taking its place in the world as a literal geographic space.
From above I could see floating islands with tornadoes around them, a sea of magma, mountains that grew from other mountains, a river that moved through the air like a colossal living creature and much more, all of them were divided in a bizarre way as if this world were made of patchwork.
"Lilith, where should we go?" (I)
"Wait, this place is confusing, everything is so strange, there is so much resentment and so much revenge..." (Lilith)
"..." (Lilith)
"Maybe we should..." (Hellyos)
"Just give her time, don't worry." (I)
I just give Lilith time to think and feel the surroundings, just as there were things that only I was noticing, for Lilith the same was true in another aspect.
The Death energy of this place was strange, it was the only constant that I could feel from all places, but this death energy seemed to come from the world itself, I looked that not to mention the strange landscape it looked like a planet like any other making it difficult to understand what was the truth, the image of a spectral planet that I saw outside or this bizarre image that I see now on the surface of this world.
This doubt was something already nagging at my head, I was more inclined to believe that all of this is false in a way, but I must also say that it seems real, it just doesn't make sense, since we arrived here nothing seems to make sense.
"You can still accept my guide."
"No." (I)
The guide who presented herself as soon as we arrived in this world is a Lady of the Grave, I will not trust her to guide us, I will follow the plan as long as it is an option.
"I can't, there are simply too many revenge meeting points, but I think we can go to any one..." (Lilith)
"I must say that there are hundreds of Evil Gods and thousands of Fallen Deities in this world, I won't even bother talking about the number of those counted as criminals outside of this world."
"..." (I)
"She is a well-informed guide." (Lilith)
"No." (I)
"She has no resentment or revenge directed at her or being emitted from her." (Lilith)
"But she's still too suspicious." (I)
"I'm a wet Demon who tortures people for fun, you're a Necromancer whose Soul was remodeled to be the vessel of an Evil God, and your Familiar was born in Hell as an Undead." (Lilith)
"We are much more suspicious than she is." (Lilith)
"So this Dragon is a resident of hell or a fugitive? Perhaps there are some of his acquaintances here and I can point the way..."
Sigh
"Why do you insist on guiding us after so many refusals on our part?" (I)
"Tarzor commanded me to be your guide, so here I am, besides I will gain much more by guiding you."
"She wants something, it's been written all over her face since she came into existence, so I know I can trust her enough to get what she wants." (Lilith)
"But you don't know what she wants, it could be our deaths or worse." (I)
"I want to get off this planet."
"Do you think we're going to believe in..." (I)
"The Demon woman may not realize it, but you can, you are a Necromancer after all."
"..." (I)
I focus my attention on her, at first I didn't notice anything since everything in the surroundings is bizarre to me, especially the way the natural laws of this world work differently from the ones I know, but when I started using my Aura together with my senses I realized that this Lady of the Grave was literally linked to the world, if I have to be more specific, she is linked to the energy of Death, energy of Life and energy of the Curse.
"In this world, my race may be born naturally different from the rest of the universe from what I've heard, but that comes with the disadvantage of being connected to the world."
She didn't need to say, I could see the 3 types of energy circulating her body before leaving her body to disperse into the world while still absorbing more of these energies into their bodies creating a natural circle of symbiosis with that world.
"(That looks a lot like a Celestine or an Ancient Elf.)" (I)
Ancient Elves have a symbiosis with natural energies, which is why they are treated as spokespeople for nature and are always in areas full of these natural energies, which is also why the World Trees like to team up with them as their strengths they coincide very well, but this same symbiosis with nature would make them unable to access bizarre areas like this.
A Celestine also has a characteristic of symbiosis, but in the case of their race this symbiosis must be with a Divinity, they need this connection with the Divine, I still don't understand their need, I can't say if it is just a mental need, a physical need or a need of their own Soul, but this need was clearly there when I talked to Athena about this subject, she herself seems to have her doubts about it and yet she claims that this need exists.
"I will not reveal what I want now, but you are not obligated to do so for me, I only ask for the opportunity to be heard and for you to consider my request before you leave."
"It's okay, I promise to listen to you." (Lilith)
"Are you sure you want to make a promise to a stranger, Lilith?" (I)
"See her eyes and her Aura, her will is burning and our Father is eager to respond to strong Wills." (Lilith)
"Yes, master would probably make the same decision." (I)
"Do you have a name or can I call you Mad Woman?" (Lilith)
"My name is Zaya, I don't have anything like a surname like the rest of my race, we are the only native people of Tarzor and we are his servants since we are linked to him." (Zaya)
"Please tell me what you need and I will point the way, walking unaccompanied in this world is a privilege only for my race, you, like everyone else, are in danger, in this world, there are no laws, crimes, or any type of restrictions." (Zaya)
"Evil rituals, torture, murder, and any kind of act you can imagine happen daily, but that means there is no protection for either side, if you do something against someone it means you have to be careful not to become a target too, so The people of this world have caution as their main rule, or they haven't lived long enough to see the end of the day." (Zaya)
"Before we talk more about what we're after, tell us more about how things work here..." (I)

Pov Zenos:
I've been fighting my sister for days now, one of the things I've learned during this time is that Natasha heals herself continuously to get rid of fatigue and tiredness in her body, which is why she's always in top shape and never seems to get tired.
The energy expenditure of these light healings means nothing to her and I don't even know if she spends any form of energy on this since her Authority itself revolves around healing, but in the meantime, I don't have that kind of power, it doesn't matter either No matter how much I train, I will never reach the combat experience of my sister who lived thousands of years of combat.
All of this culminated in this result, a one-sided massacre, my bones being turned into blessings, my organs being turned to paste, my flesh being torn from my body, and my muscles being torn apart.
Honestly, the thing I learned on the first day was to maintain the body control skill I acquired from a Slime years ago to move my body, without this skill I would just be a piece of dead flesh on the floor with no chance of doing anything.
Each blow from her was either fatal or meant to immobilize my body in preparation for other blows, I was hit so many times in the head that I can't tell if I suffered any serious brain damage.
Ignoring the pain was the least of my problems, it was the inability to move my body as freely as I wanted that threw me against the wall so many times.
Right now I was feeling the healing that the Saint of Life was releasing on me, unfortunately, it was still the same insufficient healing as always, I bend my body around a tree, landing a punch on Natasha's side, something that was immediately reciprocated when she missed my arm, throwing it to the side.
Of course, I didn't expect that, but it wasn't that bad either, I run up to her and jump in, using the blood coming out of my wounds to create a new arm made internally from blood, I crystallize some parts of the new arm giving it enough strength to be useful In combat, I don't let pain be an impediment for even a second or I'll risk being even more seriously injured.
I use this new arm to perform attacks that my sister doesn't expect, the longer I am able to delay taking another hit, the more time I will have to heal myself.
But it was getting difficult to resist hunger, my sister was constantly eating my flesh and drinking my blood to feed herself, but I wasn't able to do the same.
I had to run through the forest in an attempt to find natural food or some type of Monster, which Natasha always tried to interfere with to prevent me from being able to feed myself.
Unlike the more understanding training that Caitlyn put me through, Natasha is doing hands-on training with a strong focus aimed directly at destroying me.
"(I need to find a more effective way to attack or defend...)" (I)
