"hmmm..." The Entity mused to itself, the only sound interupting the silence of his domain. He looks upon the strands of reality with narrowed eyes, their message becoming clear to him.

"Then it must be done, but carefully." Ifrit Atundai made his decision, waving his hand before him and altering the scope. In that single motion he shifted things to the desired position, and now before him sat both the desiccated corpse of one "Holy Terra" God Emperor of Man, and the Emperors spirit. It was an act that occured both at once and never at all, a shifting of realities past, present, and future, as well as a maneuver where in entire dimensions had opened, closed, ceased existing, and never existed at all.

"You and I are long over due for a conversation. I understand you value your time but I'm afraid I must demand some of it from you. You and your people are a threat to the continued function of existence, and must be stopped. However, the extent of your influence over both your own continuum and that of several other non related scopes dictates that I cannot simply remove you from existence as I normally would. Therefore, we must come to a favorable conclusion for both our purposes."

Ifrit's attitude and tone made clear three points. First being that he obviously expected to be listened to and understood. Second being that he was assuming his sudden appearance as well as the emperors sudden imprisonment was both to be expected and accepted.

The third was that he was impatient and clearly did not understand formality or tact.

The Emperor heard the voice, a being threatened him to remove him from existence. He would have paid the strange being his full attention for such a bold statement, however he was more bust fighting the unending legions of demons led by their Chaos Gods. By his side the souls of the fallen faught by his side holding the line.

However this being, able to come into here without personally being here. It wanted something, and he was going to answer. "Make your peace then unknown being, I do not have much time to spend talking. We threaten existence you say? If that's the case why don't you talk to the Chaos Gods that want to kill all other life in this universe and destroy all of reality at that leading to eternal Chaos?" The Emperor replied as he swung his word cutting down thousands of demons at once. Greater demons and all.

It was clear he had his attention.

Ifrit rolls his eyes and waves the emperors protests away.

"These beings are only threatening this one tangent, they're of little concern overall. If you and your people were to fall, then a section of reality would fall away, but the health of the overall would be left intact." Ifrit informed the emperor. "However, your continued interaction with these shakilyu creatures have a higher than acceptable probability of resulting in ascension, and that can not be allowed. The Shakilyu are NOT worthy of this knowledge, they must not be allowed to ascend and become gods."

"You have seen their government, their culture and the arrogance that festers within it. Can you without pause or hestitation assure me that, if they were to take your place and power, that they would be as honorable and rightous as you?"

The Emperor simply cut down another horde of demons before replying. "Simple minded fool, Chaos wont stop with only us. They will expand to every corner of the universe and immaterial realms and kill everything that is in their path. If you believe that they would just stop here then that is foolish, if we fall the entirety of reality will fall. In time of course, but it will fall. You say that Chaos can ascend? They have already been able to rise to demonhood, and they cannot be made unless many emotions come together in such a massive surge."

The Emperor paused for a second as he destroyed yet another horde of demons. "I already know of this. None would be able to hold my position. Now tell me why I should continue listening to you? You say you can kill me off? By all means tell me how you would accompish such a feat that even the four Gods of Chaos have failed at. You keep on saying that anyone accending to Godhood would bring disaster, then pray tell why have you not stopped me? You keep preaching that this cannot be allowed, so why would you make me an exeption? Something as 'powerful' as you would be able to do such a thing right?"

Ifrit sighs again.

"Clearly I overestimated your understanding of your own position and intelligence. You are not a god, you are a glorified empowered being thinking they hold a power of all encompassing proportions, when in fact you access only what is a single strand of the ever growing weave of fate and destiny."

"I shall try and simplify it for you. This reality that you say the demons will consume is but one tangent of possibilities. It is not creation, it is only a single fragment of a shard of a infinitely shrinking speck of dust cast off of creation. Do you understand, has that made it clear to you? This is only one reality, there are many."

"You are the keystone in a calculation that if not changed will result in a new ascension, but not of your own people. Rather, the threat comes from the Shakilyu."

Shakes his head, growing visibly angry. "regardless, your understanding is not required. You WILL cut off your connections and reliance on the Shakilyu, and you will have your men destroy all the information they have learned from your throne bound corpse. If you do not, then I will be left with no choice but to disseminate of this tangent."

"And before you begin claiming how you will "stand against me as I have these demons" Remember that I need not affect you directly. Suffice it to say that there are possibilities that can be manipulated and set in motion. One of those is your failure."

"And if nothing else, think of your duty and your people. What I ask of you is not beyond your own reasoning is it, especially if it could better secure the future of your "holy terra""

"I will give you forty seven cycles to come to your conclusion."

And with that the connection was severed, the Emperor returned to whence he came with no evidence to suggest he had ever left, or that the conversation had just occured.

The Emperor simply sighed, he understood what he meant and he had no intention to follow him. He had already guessed whatever that was would try and alter reality and the timelines. He would have considered it...if he had not already hear that threat millions of times over and over again. It was a being that was waving around his power like a kid. He has been alive for a very long time, everyone had a chance to use time to kill him. He has seen this many times already and has stopped every last attempt.

He had no intention to follow a random xeno creature that dared thinks he controls everyones destiny. He has already seen people claiming masters of time and reality, and he himself has mastered that long ago. However he had no interest in affecting the past. One little change could destroy everything, whoever that was was waving around power, being an arrogant kid.

Forty cycles to decide? He could have told this being no already and show him that not everything goes anyones way. He learned this the hard way personally. He will never comply, and he had the power to show that creature when forty cycles came...No one had the right to control destiny, and he was no different. He was already expecting guests, and they would give him what he needed to show that thing, never mess with the past.

With that he returned to killing the endless waves of demons along with the souls of the others.
