Chapter 2: Goddess

I was... in the middle of somewhere, surrounded, by stone... Cave, I was in a cave. stalactites and stalagmites around, I was having difficulty remembering which was which. Though the only difference is that one is sediments that stack in the ceiling or ground, creating natural spikes, and something about water, though that only tells me that above me there is water. 'Please don't be an ocean.' Caves are common, but most are never discovered, since, there are no entrances.

"Wow, here you are, medamn, am I'm getting bad at my job." I could feel the words reverberate not only on my cristaline body, but also on my soul. 'something tells me that this would not be good for normal people. "And you would be correct, the fact that you feel only what amounts to an earthquake is astounding." The women in front of me told me so, and no that is not an error, for some reason beings of higher power do not have an standard understanding of what amounts to a body, because it is as if there is countless people in front of me, clipping into each other in a single place, and all female, even if some are weird and not of my knowledge, they are undoubtedly female, even the tentacle abomination.

"Yes yes, I do now my form is fascinating, but we are here on business, I can say that I do not know how your kind works, since for me everything is mostly instinct based, but I can tell you the basics of this world." Something about their words feel different, because I can't misunderstand anything, as images pop into my head and repeat until I can't forget. Because of that I knew somewhat how this planet looks, there being 3 continents, one crescent moon shaped on the left, with a continent that connects to it in the right in the shape of a bean where the rightmost part is considered a different continent for some reason. 'and I believe you will further explain why right?' The being in front of me could certainly read my mind because. "Yes, the continents were one, but I had to split them, and that part that felt different in the 'Bean' continent, is what I made to be a land where nothing can change it, being in a state of perpetuity, so no cities can ever go there, and that so that in the event of a FALL the natural world can recover and be reset."

More words, and more meaning, so let's unpack it, when she said split it gave me the image of her focusing and modifying the tectonic plates, there were tectonic plates before, but somehow she made them not drift apart. I got a better overview of the 'Bean' when she mentioned it, and the lands that she talked about, it can't be settled at, but there is more, if the land is modified by someone outside, the place will change until the outsider is shunted off, then it will settle in a different harmony, where the stronger go inwards and stay there, and no sapient life will ever emerge there. And FALL that gave me many images, but it has something to do with the spark of destruction, suicide, spark of creation, and the fact that this world fell once, all sapient life lost, and the goddess had to use a lot of power to return the world to a semblance of life, but sapient life is to expensive, so here I am.

"Your task is to create sapient life, and train them, how and when doesn't matter, since I relocated to a more internal part of the plane there will be no more demons until I go back. Also, there are 4 magical energies in the world, though I cannot tell you what they do since the knowledge was destroyed." And there she goes, behind her words was something else, an emotion, which was hard to discern, but it had something to do with tiredness, I would not be surprised if she... Regardless, I have time, First things first, the most essential knowledge that I will need.

'How do I move.' I won't stay in a cave in the middle of nowhere forever, so I need to find out how to, probably with magic, since there are four.

I meditated, it is different for me since, I am a crystal. I did not shut my senses of, but expended them, I could not penetrate the walls, at least not for now. What I could feel was differences, heat, humidity, and something else. inside me, looking from outside I could sense an infinity, or something close to it. and there were three, the last energy was still unbeknownst to me, but this is a start.

Actually, there is a fourth one, but I can't say it is one of the energies she talked about. It is more... intimate, and it doesn't feel like the image that her words evoked. It is probably something only mine, better something inherent to Primordial Dungeons.

That energy would be the first one I studied, as it is probably key to my functions.
