Star-Crossed Universe Log #1: Vigenere - Almighty Queen of the Void

"Nothingness is the only truth," Said she.

Legends have done her no favors: a widow who lost her husband, condemned to raise a daughter despite her flaws. Are flaws the point of raising a child? Or shall you pursue true perfection in an imperfect world? She was grieving, confused, and insulted by what the world had given her.

Centuries wrought upon the Philippines and she brought the void with her, warping reality and the perception of truth. True perfection lies in the void where no one dared to question what was right or wrong. Other legends called her a "mass murderer" after committing a massacre on one of the fairy realms that denied her "perfection."

"Alas, such is imperfection," She sang as the point of life is to pursue perfection in nothingness, "Dispose those who are too imperfect for this world to create a new perfect one."

Many stood against her, including her own wayward daughter - her heart personified. She had claimed that her daughter was too imperfect. Standing up for the human realm, where imperfections were rampant. My, oh my, was she insulted...

Grief isn't an excuse to be a tyrant and nothingness is not the answer to perfection. Should Vigenere learn of that, it should be a miracle.

๐๐ซ๐จ๐ค๐ž๐ง ๐‚๐ซ๐จ๐ฐ๐ง (๐“๐ก๐ž ๐๐š๐ฆ๐ž๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐‹๐š๐ฆ๐›๐š๐ง๐š)

โ€œYour crown is grounded in reality,โ€ They would say, โ€œYou have no time for dreams and idle time for fantasies.โ€. They disregard the world behind my mind, the wonder entwined with the fantasies I made - one where I dreamed to be human. I want to be free as one and to be as mortal as I can be, where I live as if it was my last. I wanted to live at the edge of my life - to enjoy the thrills of mortality.

However, I was not human and I was something that humans would consider a ๐‘“๐‘Ž๐‘›๐‘ก๐‘Ž๐‘ ๐‘ฆ. I have many chances, many lives, and infinite time to do with my life as I wished. Yet, I was chained by the broken crown that my family forced upon me - one where I rule over this godforsaken realm of this so-called balance.

I felt my own creativity forcibly taken away in favor of the harsh realities of a kingdom. Say what you want to say about ruling over a kingdom of ๐‘™๐‘Ž๐‘š๐‘๐‘Ž๐‘›๐‘Ž, but it was not as colorful as tales would say. I already made sure my siblings escaped a dull fate. However, I stayed here while others lived not caring about what could have become of them.

Finally, my escape to the human realm could shape my own destiny - away from everyoneโ€™s expectations. No longer will I be a stiff princess of pure dullness, where I felt like a puppet under othersโ€™ strings. I am my own puppet - one with ๐ฏ๐จ๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, ๐ค๐ง๐จ๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ž๐๐ ๐ž, ๐ก๐š๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ข๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ, the ability to initiate ๐œ๐ก๐š๐ง๐ ๐ž by myself, and the ๐ฌ๐จ๐ฅ๐ข๐๐š๐ซ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ of those who sought freedom. My creativity was, but a medium to my dreams and imaginations - to the endless wonder of someone who was eternally a child.

I arrived in the human world, feeling the grass underneath my feet. I saw the true blue skies coating the world in the sky godsโ€™ embrace. I could smell the distant scent of the fragrant flowers. I could feel the gaze of humans, who stared at me with wonder. I could taste the salt from the seas ahead of us. I could hear their songs, their murmurs, and singing winds.

โ€œKamahalan,โ€ They seem to say, โ€œHiraya.โ€

Yet, immortality births ๐š๐ฉ๐š๐ญ๐ก๐ฒ to modern day problems, ignoring plights that trouble beyond what they asked for. My very creative soul sought ๐๐ž๐œ๐ž๐ข๐ญ to believe what the human world was capable of. My soul - whether they may be human or not - still oversees ๐๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, caused by centuries worth of wars and betrayal. Still, my soul slept as the ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐จ๐ญ๐ก won over what I really wanted for my world. However, my ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฅ๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž bred indifference, so I sought to make a difference.

Time passed until the world of magic resurfaced, led by our songs and our battles. The skies grew dimmer and nature grew demanding penitence for humanityโ€™s hubris. Under the pen name Braille, I sought dominance over my creativity and the ability to give everyone voices, especially the children that used to look at me with stars. I had dreamed that someday, all will look under the same eyes, but of different thoughts and ideals.

โ€œReality is cruel,โ€ I once sang, for my anger does not have a mask on my face. Forever indifferent, I dreaded as I was doomed to show a mask of apathy to the plight of humanity. In reality, I feared how their epilogues would be written. I feared for reality, for something I had no control over.

Humans wage wars for the most petty reasons. The power of lies was used to keep knowledge in their midst. It was a kingdom - one where its king puppeteers everyone foolish enough to bite their hand. I had realized that someone who is eternally a child - such as myself - would be subject to reality one way or another.

Then, I realized that this was my ๐ค๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ฆ - one where lies and truth are forever entwined as knowledge. It was one where creativity rules over and the freedom to say how I wished prevailed over the oppressions. I will be the kamahalan that the world demands, so minds would not be oppressed and the world of creativity prevails.

I establish my kingdom in reality, where my crown is grounded in the name of humanity, freedom, and creativity. The ink will forever stain its walls. The writings on the walls foretell the folly of life - whether creature, human, or spirit. The flags serve as a warning to those who threaten all walks of life to be silent and to live under fear.

โ€œI am Hiraya.โ€ I declared, raising my sword, โ€œNever waver to the cruelties of reality!โ€.
