Chapter 28 - One to rise above the rest

The killing was not chaos for its own sake, but a screening.

As long as the Endless Abyss existed, every creature within it would be forced into slaughter. 

They would devour one another, climb over the corpses of their kin, and only the strongest would remain. Such was the law of the Abyss itself. 

Its harsh, barren land had no patience for weakness. Food, territory, opportunity,nothing was given freely, everything was seized by force.

That was why Cillian chose to orchestrate this massacre, leaving only a single survivor. 

The Abyss did not reward the cunning who hid in the dark and waited, it rewarded the ones who could endure the storm, crush all others and rise above the carnage. That survivor would not only be strong, they would be an unstoppable force.

In the eyes of others, Cillian's actions would seem extreme, perhaps even mad. To unleash so many powerful demons, only to drive them against one another as though they were insects being bred for venom.
