"What an interesting spawn, Aria is, or should I say Daenerys Targaryen." A voice is heard from what appears to be a highly advanced lab. Suddenly, a figure in a black robe with red runic engravings walks around the walk holding several test tubes containing various colored liquids. On the multiple tables, there is various research material, including details on Bhaalspawn biology, specifically the crimson blood Bhaalspawn. After a few moments, the silhouette of the figure in the black robe is revealed; it is Bhaal, not his clones, not his avatars, but the real original Bhaal.
From what we see, Bhaal appears as an intimidating figure that blends ancient mystical aesthetics with futuristic technology. He has a massive, muscular build with well-defined abdominal muscles, conveying immense physical strength. He possesses a thick, dark beard and long, flowing, wavy hair that flows freely on his back. His skin is a dark, stony grey color. His most striking feature is his glowing red eyes, which emit a fiery light.
As he lifts the test tubes to observe the liquids within, we see that both of his arms are entirely robotic. They are constructed from dark, matte-metal plating with exposed mechanical joints at the shoulders, elbows, and wrists. Thin, glowing red lines trace the circuitry of his cybernetic arms, matching the light of his eyes. He wears a long-sleeved, black robe that is open at the front, revealing his muscular build. The edges of his garment are adorned with numerous glowing red runes and sigils. These characters resemble ancient occult lettering, suggesting that his power is rooted in dark magic as much as technology.
The heavy, pneumatic hiss of the laboratory doors breaks the rhythmic bubbling of Bhaal's experiments. Jinryu steps into the sanctum, the sterile white light of the hallway silhouetting his frame before he crosses into the god's oppressive shadow. He moves with the practiced silence of a high-tier predator, yet in this room, even his formidable presence feels diminished. He drops into a deep, precise bow, a gesture not of fear, but of profound recognition of the power radiating from the grey-skinned titan before him.
Bhaal does not look up immediately. His massive, claw-like hand continues to guide a stylus across the pages of a tome bound in shifting, iridescent leather. "You may raise your head," the Lord of Murder rumbles, the sound like tectonic plates grinding deep underground. As Jinryu straightens, the air stirs; the purple-scarved crow, a familiar steeped in omens, takes flight. It circles the laboratory's vaulted ceiling before descending to perch upon Bhaal's broad, muscular shoulder, its talons clicking against the runic embroidery of his black robes.
Bhaal pauses his writing, the glowing red light of his eyes reflecting off the glass of a nearby centrifuge. "Tell me what you think of Aria," he commands, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial silkiness.
Jinryu remains composed, though he chooses his words with surgical care. "She is smart, strong, and extremely cautious," he begins, his gaze fixed on the flickering holographic data streams of the nearby screens. "The golden needle showed me that she was still in her room, but after sending a mental scan of her room, she wasn't there, meaning she most probably possesses an internal world or a personal world ring. Meaning the one I interacted with was nothing more than a clone." Jinryu says as he continues to bow.
A low, guttural chuckle vibrates through Bhaal's massive chest, a sound that would send a chill through the bravest mortal heart. He finally sets down the stylus and turns, his dark, stony grey face splitting into a jagged, knowing smile. The fiery luminescence of his eyes intensifies, casting a bloody hue over the research notes detailing the Bhaalspawn's crimson blood.
Bhaal's voice drops to a resonant, appreciative rumble as he acknowledges the magnitude of Aria's potential. "Impressive analysis," he says to Jinryu, the red fire in his eyes pulsing in sync with the humming machinery of the lab. "You are right to be cautious. Aria is not merely unique; she is a convergence. She manipulates magic, aura, genetic, and spiritual energy with a fluidity that borders on the divine. Her talent does not merely rival the gods of Faerûn; it threatens to eclipse the very foundations they stand upon. She is currently planning to kill Joon, though I find her methods strange, but that's not why I called you.
I need you and your 5 soul slaves of Squard Zero to go to Sigil and await for Aria and her companions arrival, once Aria Arrives their befriend her using the aid of the data you will learn from this book, it details on everything I have been able to gather on her, concerning her character, while there help her to settle in and protect her from the shadows, kill any nuisance that will interfere with her activities if she should ever leave follow her movements and when the time is right ensure you lead her to meet with Irenicus after that you are free to do what you want, this is the final mission to you." Bhaal says as he brings Jinryu the black leather book he was writing and hands It to Jinryu "go study its contents before you leave, that is all you may leave." Bhaal says as he returns to his work." Bhaal says to Jinryu
"Lord Bhaal, how do you know that she will come to Sigil?" Jinryu asks, his voice laced with a rare touch of hesitation. "To even reach the City of Doors, one must find a specific portal leading to the Outlands, a realm that exists entirely beyond the Prime Material Plane."
Bhaal does not look up from his work, his massive hands steady as he manipulates a delicate crystalline vial. "She will come," he rumbles, the certainty in his voice like a mountain collapsing. "That is all you need to know. Now, leave me to my work." Recognizing the finality in the god's tone, Jinryu straightens his posture, offers a final, respectful bow, and retreats from the laboratory, the heavy doors sealing behind him with a hiss of pressurized air.
After Jinryu left, Bhaal went on a nearby sofa and sat down in a meditative position, closing his eyes, "CGC activation, Portfolio: Murder, Identity: Bhaal, Function Astral Projection." Bhaal says as a mark of a skull with a stylized human skull surrounded by a circle of nine bloody tears appears on his forehead." Within seconds, Bhaal's consciousness moves from his body and begins to be connected to the CGC VIRTUAL NETWORK.
"CGC Astral Projection link established, Master. Where shall we go first? The CGC main headquarters, your palace... or somewhere more private?" It has been a while since you connected with the Celestial God Country," a female holographic AI that looks like a succubus says as Bhaal as she connects Bhaal to the Celestial God Country Virtual Network. The Holographic figure is composed of translucent, glowing red energy.
She appears as a digital projection with circuitry-like patterns etched across her skin. She is extremely beautiful with red hair and possesses traditional succubus-like features, including large leathery wings, curved horns, pointed ears, a slim, long, pointed tail, and a slender physique like that of an elven queen. She wears a bodysuit of liquid metallic red. It is hyper-form-fitting, appearing less like clothes and more like a shimmering coat of chrome that leaves nothing to the imagination. The suit integrates seamlessly with the circuitry etched into her skin.
"Perhaps another time, for now take me to my virtual palace within CGC," Bhaal says to Ashara, bows before teleporting to Bhaal's Palace, located within a virtual star system on a planet he personally designed and calls Planet Arabhaal. He bought this private star system for 10,000 mixed units. In CGC, when one buys a virtual asset, it is considered private property, and the owner is granted full privacy; not even the CGC can interfere unless they have a good reason. The two continue to fly at light speed in what appears to be a stream a data.
"Okay, we are here," The succubus AI says as they land on Planet Arabhaal within the virtual star system.
Planet Arabhaal manifests as a breathtaking terrestrial jewel within the Celestial God Country Virtual Network, characterized by its vibrant sapphire oceans and sprawling, lush green continents that suggest a world teeming with life and simulated complexity.
The surface is a dramatic tapestry of jagged, snow-dusted mountain ranges and deep, verdant valleys. Within moments, the two land in what appears to be a red palace covering a distance of 500,800km2. Framed by a dark, ornate archway, the Red Palace rises as a majestic marvel of both technology and magic. As Bhaal enters with Ashara, we see the palace's inner sanctum is populated by various AI servants and petitioners who bow in respect, all of them bound to the service of Bhaal. Two imposing, demonic sentinels with glowing circuitry etched into their skin stand guard with spears as they near Bhaal's main room. As the two enter, they find beautiful women from different races, some elven, others humans, and some even beast folk with digital-like markings across their bodies, who bow in respect as they await Bhaal's order. These attendants, blending organic beauty with synthetic precision, maintain a quiet, watchful presence as Bhaal enters.
"Greeting Lord Bhaal, it is an honor for us to be in your presence," one of the female petitioners says. "Today I am busy, leave me to my work, I have a meeting with my Avatar, so I don't require any distabance" Bhaal says as the female petitioner servants bow an leave the room, leaving Bhaal alone with Ashara who stand nearby awaiting further orders, Bhaal walks around the room and takes a book called the Beginner's guide to the Celestial God Country and Celestial God Country virtal network as he sits in one of the sofas awaiting his avatar to arrive as. From the book, we learn the following information.
The Celestial God Country
The Celestial God Country refers to the physical location of the Celestial God Country headquarters and branches. The main physical headquarters is located within the 3-space slit located within the space slits of the infinite Astral Plane, also referred to as the Astral Sea. The 3rd space Slit is considered the most dangerous but safest and most optimal place for creating a miniature universe because it ensures a strong, stable miniature universe that is rich and dense with laws of the universe. This was AO's first miniature universe, which grew to become the CGC GOD KINGDOM, filled with other miniature universe kingdoms and other smaller god kingdoms. The most terrifying feature of the CGC god kingdom is its size thanks to AO'S third body called luminous due to its infinite divine energy allowed AO to create a god kingdom that made the other overlords of the great wheel cosmology a joke, the size of the entire CGC god kingdom contains a diameter of 10,000 trillion light-years and the most terrifying thing that makes the other gods kneel in reverence, is in its design especially with its physical smaller branches that are located within the 16 outer planes, each possessing a diameter of 10 trillion light years located within the 3rd space slit of each plane. The third space slit (the Space Current/Space Flood layer) is extremely dangerous when building a God Country because it is filled with powerful, chaotic spatial currents and fragments that can kill even powerful Immortals, making it such that the safest way anyone bellow immortal can reach there is only by teleportation using the CGC VIRTUAL NETWORK otherwise he might be killed by the raging space currents. A technological marvel created by AO's sworn brother, Primus, this virtual network was personally designed by the lawful neutral Overlord of Mechanus called Primus. It is rumored that Primus utilized the magic, technology, the astral sea, and an unknown power called primordial force energy in order to create a virtual network that utilizes 2 major key functions.
1. Astral Projection- This feature allows anyone who has linked to the CGC VIRTUAL NETWORK to access a virtual realm of all AO's god kingdoms with zero difficulties and no restrictions. As long as you are a CGC member, you can access it whenever or wherever you want, using a unique portfolio to link your consciousness.
2. Astral Teleportation-- This feature allows anyone who has linked to the CGC VIRTUAL NETWORK to teleport to any Physical god kingdom under the celestial god country jurisdiction, though this physical teleportation feature only works while within the Great Wheel Cosmology. The other sub-feature of this feature is utilizing advanced space magic with time and space laws to allow easy storage and teleportation of items bought, sold, and stored within the various CGC accounts, giving all its members safety and easy accessibility to their items and resources, no matter their location, even if outside the Great Wheel cosmology.
Key organization of the Celestial God Country
1. The Celestial God Country Virtual Network Alliance
This is the neutral organization tasked with ensuring all CGC operations run as normal, mainly comprised of modrons that facilitate the day-to-day running of the virtual network services. This organization came to fruition when Primus and AO made an Alliance to work together to create the structures and technology to facilitate the activities of CGC, which will allow the gods of the great wheel cosmology to have easier management and exploration of the original universes of the prime material plane. Thanks to their combined efforts, they created a treasure like none in the great cosmology had ever seen, with which AO focuses on laying the foundations, but Primus built the actual cities, structures, and technological facilities of TCO, including.
Absolute Reality Simulation: The CGC virtual network simulates 100% of reality, engaging every sense and soul-fiber. There is no distinction between the "real" world and the "divine" network; pain, pleasure, and physics are perfectly mirrored.
Law Comprehension Facilitation: Within the CGC, beings can commune directly with the source code of existence to comprehend the Original Laws. Practitioners can meditate on the fundamental forces of Time, Space, and Elements with a clarity impossible in the physical realm. And with its time, augmentation training centers where one can literary buy more years, with 1 minute being equal to one year encouraging many petitioners to choose to come here to subscribe to this feature when they are outside their gods miniature universe, which usually accelerated time difference of 10,081 years in their gods miniature universe is equal to 1 years in the real world, thus most CGC members use this feature to continue training when while exploring the astral sea, the prime material plane, and even the cosmic sea allowing them to continue training no matter the location without having to worry about time wastage since they can allocate a few hours of training within their day in the real world allowing them to gain years of experience within mere minutes.
Cosmic Communication: Distance is an obsolete concept. You can chat with friends and allies across different planes of the Great Wheel cosmology and beyond instantly and with zero delay thanks to its connection to the astral sea, which exists as an infinite realm beyond the comprehension of mortals and gods.
Universal Commerce: The most complex financial maneuvers, stocks, bonds, finance, and multi-world business are conducted within the CGC, moving the wealth of entire galaxies with a thought. With VIP members like gods, given the ability to be teleported to the items they purchase directly to their internal world, allowing them to get any goods they purchase in seconds, no matter their location
Universal Banking: Beings can settle their bank accounts through the Celestial God Bank, ensuring their assets are secured by the most advanced system in the great wheel, allowing them to grow their wealth, purchase, and have access to their finances, no matter their location
Power Mastery: One can learn and practice Martial Arts, magic, ki, qi, and many other powers in the CGC without the risk of permanent physical death. Here, techniques that would shatter a planet can be unleashed and refined in high-fidelity combat simulations training centers allowing members of CGC refine their technique whether one is a mage, aura user, ki cultivator, qi cultivator, genetic and spiritual cultivator usually referred as cosmic cultivators then he or she will have an opportunity to learn from the Celestial God Sect which offers training in different power systems with a major focus on integrating other power systems with cosmic cultivation.
Universe Market: You can trade, buy, and sell items and services from across the multiverse. From common ores to "Unknown Treasures" plucked from the Prime Material Plane, the CGC is a market larger than any single Universe Country.
Infinite Entertainment: Beings can immerse themselves in virtual games that span entire lifespans or indulge in the most decadent pleasures, delicious food, legendary wines, and the most beautiful women the human race and alien species have to offer are all gathered here.
Gathering of the Elites: The Celestial God Country is a meeting ground where all the universe's petitioner elites gather in hope of being accepted as Internal members of CGC
AO placed Primus and the modrons with the task of supervising CGC virtual network facilities because, unlike other sentient beings, modrons are only created to perform the task they were created for; they do not care about your secrets, emotions, or anything that you do. It only exists to ensure that the task is completed. That is why most of the cybersecurity details of the CGC virtual network are made of modrons that range from universe master to god emperor, who will hunt you down should they find you breaking the laws of CGC, ensuring that even the highest god's powers are kept in check
2. Celestial God Sect
The Celestial God Sect is by far one of the most complex and most interesting places one can visit. Its main headquarters, located within the CGC quarters, is a 100 trillion realm containing billions of secret realms meant to tutor and develop the talents of CGC. Each secret region, except for the Celestial God Sect headquarters, is 1 billion light-years in diameter. As for the Celestial Cosmic sect main headquarters, it is located within a 10 trillion light-years god kingdom, personally governed by AO himself using his 3 unique bodies.
The first one is called IO, which appears as a colossal planet-sized dragon sector beast when in normal form, with its body comprised of multicolored star-like scales, usually deals with the training and monitoring of all within the sect, and is known as the Primogenitor Body.
The second, perhaps the most commonly known by the gods, is AO; this is his true body, it appears as an imposing figure with symmetrical features, white hair and beard, wearing a golden winged armor. This body usually deals with matters affecting the great wheel cosmology and is referred to as the Overlord Body.
Lastly, the third and most powerful body called Luminous, which appears as a glowing humanoid body composed entirely of stars and galaxies existing beyond the confines of reality, time, space, and reason. This body focuses on matters relating to the cosmic sea and defends the great wheel cosmology from multi-dimensional beings and is referred to as the Chaotic Origin Body
3. Celestial God Bank
The most secure financial institution in the existence of the great wheel cosmology. The Celestial God Bank facilitates the instantaneous exchange of any currency from gold coins, celestial credits, universe crystals, mixed units, spirit stones, etc. Its vaults exist in a fold of space-time that even an overlord cannot breach.
4. Celestial God Hunters Guild
The Hunters are the elite pioneers, the "God-Vanguard" tasked with venturing into the terrifying, unmapped "Void Zones" of the Prime Material Plane. These are not mere explorers; they are conquerors. A single Hunter is capable of destabilizing an entire Original Universe. To enter, you must be at least a domain lord and above to be accepted. Their mission usually includes:
-Locating unexplored Original Universes.
-Securing and harvesting unknown treasures and Arcana.
-Expanding the CGC's influence in the cosmic sea through diplomatic or military methods.
(This is the branch Bhaal was currently working under)
5. Celestial God Army Branch
The Celestial God Army (CGA) is the pinnacle of prestige within the Celestial god country, an organization so extravagant that its members are treated as living constellations. To be a soldier in the CGA is to be a Tier-1 deity in service to the preservation of the CGC's dominion. To even enter, one has to at least be a universe venerable.
Their rank is not shown by badges, but by the size and complexity of their God-Halo, a burning ring of data and power that floats behind their head, signifying their clearance level and combat record.
When the CGA moves, they do not use ships; they perform "Reality Folding," manifesting as a legion of golden giants across the stars of a threatened Original Universe. They are the ultimate deterrent. Their presence alone can stabilize a collapsing reality or silence a rebellion of lesser gods. To witness the CGA in formation is to see a symphony of destruction and order.
GREATEST TREASURE OF THE GREAT WHEEL COSMOLOGY
The Celestial God Country Virtual Network
The Celestial God Country Virtual Network is a virtual multi-universal megalopolis. It consists of 16 cities, each 10 trillion light-years in diameter, with the main CGC headquarters being located at its center, covering a diameter of 10,000 trillion light-years, a feat that surpasses the entire physical size of the great wheel cosmology. The 16 cities represent each of the 16, 10 trillion diameter god kingdoms personally created by AO's; the 16 god kingdom branches are located in different outer planes of the Great Wheel cosmology. When it comes to cities the gods are a different level, unlike other cosmic cultivators who only poses only one god kingdom usually raging to from1 to10 trillion, thanks to the genetic, spiritual and innate advantages of gods they can create multiple god kingdoms and miniature universes that will serve as CGC branches even when exploring the infinite material plane allowing CGC have a stable method of acquiring more territories unlike the demons and devils who have to place one at least one true god to whose miniature universe whos miniature universe will act as there headquarters for their race, True gods from the great wheel cosmology can create infinite personal miniature universes and link them to CGC allowing easier deployment and teleportation to all their territories in CGC you can find Overlord beings like Odin In charge of 10,200 original universes each containing their person miniature universes of varying size ranging from1 light year to 10 trillion light years located withing their various infinite space slit.
In CGC entire original universes are considered mere cities, when AO created the 16 virtual cities he made them to be virtual sandboxes mirroring the 16 outer planes and in each he placed a huge one billion light year city mega structure at their center, each designed to act as the social hub for represent their unique planes and at their center of all this is the celestial god city, a 10,000 trillion light-years diameter city connecting all the other 16 cities circularly into one mega cosmic structure.
(Not only petitioners, soul slaves, and soul servants serving a god members of CGC can access the services of the Celestial God City, but only the gods and servants who have reached at least the stellar level are allowed to have permanent residence here. Like the Arabhaal Estate, a 1.5 light-year diameter star system residence specifically designated to Bhaal, the god of Murder, but when it comes to higher-ranking gods, this star system is nothing but a basic one-bedroom apartment; some, like the goddess Mystra, a high-ranking divine general of the Celestial God Army, possess estates that cover entire universe counties, that range from 100 million light-years to a trillion light-years in size.
As long as you meet the requirements, you can walk or teleport to any of the cities at wil,l allowing even petitioners who died serving different god to meet again, even in their afterlife allowing the to live with the benefits of their former lives among other benefits due to this the Celestial God Country has become a bustling multi-universal megalopolis filled with countless civilizations with diverse cultures, technologies, and power systems like mana, nen, ki, qi, reiryoku, Dou Qi, chakra etc. all this combined make the celestial god country the greatest social hub in the entire great wheel cosmology.)
Background
The Celestial God Country virtual network is not a mere realistic virtual universe; it is fundamentally different. While most virtual universes require vast energies to manifest, especially for beings to practice the Original Laws, the Celestial God Country inherently exists as a divine domain, an eternal realm for divine beings to train, cultivate, and ascend beyond mortal and godly comprehension.
The realm consumes virtually no divine energy. Since it is eternally connected to the Great Wheel Cosmologies Law ocean, which is eternal and inexhaustible, and is combined with the astral sea, allowing it to extend its network into the cosmic sea. It was first established During the first reincarnation Era, when AO became the first Overlord overlord of the great wheel cosmology and seized the will of the Supreme Operation Laws of the great wheel cosmology becoming its supreme being, afterwards he utilized the technique "Celestial Realm," a sub technique from the great dao of celestial origin which allowed him to create a divine network that covered the entire great wheel cosmology while also linking it with the infinite Astral Sea to create a Virtual Universe that extends beyond the great wheel cosmology to cover the currently known cosmic sea. Since its creation, there has been no being who has ever been able to interfere with its operation since its creation.
The data processing and maintenance of the Celestial God Country are all managed by Primus, the supreme overlord of the plane of Mechanus. Perhaps the most impressive thing about it is its ability to integrate Astral Projection into its functions. Once you are connected to the CGC, your real body does not need to eat, drink, or even breathe while linked to the CGC virtual network. Because once you are connected, your physical body is put in a suspended animation, stopping all biological functions except for heartbeat. Anything you eat and drink within the CGC VIRTUAL NETWORK is perfectly simulated to 100 percent accuracy, and upon returning to the real world, your body's biological systems continue as if nothing had happened, even if you had stayed within the CGC virtual network for millions of years.
So basically Celestial God Country Virtual NETWORK is an infinite, highly advance, magical and technological divine realm within the Great Wheel Cosmology, encompassing all the territories governed by the gods, with its network extending to cover a large part of the cosmic sea thanks to its ability to utilize the infinite Astral sea, allowing all its members to access it no matter their location in the cosmic sea, whether in the great wheel cosmology or in other caged worlds the members of CGC can freely access the virtual network with zero restrictions, as for the teleportation feature it only works as long as the individual is in the caged world of the great wheel cosmology. While Celestial God Country refers to its physical headquarters and branches. With its main HQ being located on the astral plane, while its other main branches are located in the 16 outer planes of the great wheel. Each of them is located within a god kingdom personally created by Overlord AO, and is located on their various 3rd infinite space slits within their respective planes.
List of AO 16 GOD KINGDOMS CITIES
-AO Mount Celestia God Kingdom
-AO Arcadia God Kingdom
-Ao Bytopia God Kingdom
-AO Elysium God Kingdom
-AO Beastlands God Kingdom
- AO Arborea God Kingdom
-AO Ysgard God Kingdom
-AO Limbo God Kingdom

-AO Pandemonium God Kingdom
-AO Carceri God Kingdom
-AO Hades God Kingdom
-AO Gehenna God Kingdom
-AO Baator God Kingdom
-AO Acheron God Kingdom
-AO Mechanus God Kingdom
- AO outlands god kingdom
The outlands is perhaps the most strange place within the entire great wheel cosmology though gods still live and larger part of the plane if they dare enter the city of sigil physically, using a clone or even an avatar they are immediately killed, but as long as they reside in the outlands they are complete safe, this is the only place where the teleportation function of CGC virtual network does not work although though one can still use the CGC virtual network astral projection feature. The lady of pain literary does not care what the gods do in the outlands as long as they don't enter the city of Sigil, she will not interfere.
The guide ends with a stern warning regarding the Outlands. While AO maintains a God Kingdom there, the City of Sigil remains a dead zone for CGC's most potent features. The Lady of Pain permits the use of Astral Projection, but the Teleportation function is strictly disabled. If a god or their avatar attempts to physically breach Sigil, they face immediate, absolute termination. Bhaal closes the book, his gaze fixed on the ornate doors of his chamber. He knows Aria is headed for the one place in the great wheel cosmology where his digital and divine reach is most limited.
As he sits, the silence of the inner sanctum is shattered as the heavy doors slide open and his own avatar, the one that is currently acting in his stead, enters the room. Bhaal Avatar appears as a formidable, high-tech warrior clad in sleek, futuristic black armor that combines medieval silhouettes with advanced cybernetic aesthetics.
He appears as a formidable, high-tech warrior clad in sleek, futuristic black armor that combines medieval silhouettes with advanced cybernetic aesthetics. The armor is a matte black, segmented plate system that appears both agile and impenetrable. It features glowing red kinetic lines and accents that trace the contours of the chest, waist, and greaves. A tattered, deep black hooded cloak drapes over the shoulders. The hood obscures most of the head, lending Bhaal an enigmatic and predatory silhouette. Beneath the hood, the faceplate is a smooth, dark visor with a sharp, angular chin. A single, glowing red optical sensor or "V" shaped HUD light provides a haunting focal point.
Initially, his face is hidden behind a smooth, featureless dark visor, broken only by a sharp "V" shaped crimson HUD light that glows with predatory intensity. However, as he nears the Lord of Murder, the faceplate retracts with a mechanical hiss. Beneath the terrifying exterior lies the strikingly handsome, youthful face of Bhaal.
"Damn, what a day," Slayer sighs, his voice carrying a lighter, more arrogant edge than the original god's. "I've been slaughtering Harpers since dawn, and yet they still crawl out of the woodwork like cockroaches. But that's secondary. Why did you summon me, Zero? You even insisted I use the CGC Virtual Network and come to planet Arabhaal for this meeting." He collapses into a chair, his armored greaves clanking against the floor.
Bhaal looks at his duplicate, his own glowing red eyes reflecting in the polished black of the Avatar's armor. "Slayer, I have been monitoring Aria with a level of scrutiny I rarely afford. We must modify the plan."
Slayer stands abruptly, his youthful face twisting in confusion. "Modify it? What do you mean? The plan is already perfect and clear. Step 1: Give our direct disciple, Aria, the necessary resources required to ensure her growth. Step 2: Use the crystal we gave Irenicus to neutralize her abilities, thanks to the golden ring that will slow down her heart and mental reactions, making her faint while restricting all her abilities. Step 3: While in this state, we will integrate the 30 genetic DNA of the various special lifeforms we have been able to acquire across the years, allowing her body to obtain the ability to shapeshift into 30 unique special life forms.
Step 4, Irenicus will integrate the blue Sharingan that we modified when we used that human clone under the alias of Danzo to obtain and test the different eyes of the Uchiha clan. The modified Blue Sharingan now allows the one who has integrated with it to master any technique he or she sees.
Step 5: Irenicus will use the soul devour technique to transfer my soul and allow me to take over Arias' body while The remaining Bhaalspawns who have passed the gauntlet will be killed, and their essence will be used to enhance my soul, thus allowing me to ascend and become a Universe master.
As far as I can see every everything is going according to plan." Bhaal's avatar says as he stops in his tracks, turning to face the original Bhaal with a look of manic certainty. "Everything is moving in lockstep! The trap is set, the bait is taken, and the prize is within our reach. So tell me, why are you hesitating now?"
Bhaal remains still, the stony grey of his skin making him look like a statue of ancient doom. "The goal remains the same, Slayer, but the destination has changed. Aria is not just a pawn; she is a variable with her own internal world and now the Allspark heart. If we do not adjust our approach before she becomes too powerful, we risk losing the very vessel we spent eons crafting."
"SIT DOWN!" The command doesn't just echo; it hits like a physical shockwave. Bhaal's voice, thick with the weight of divine authority. The stony-grey god didn't move a muscle, but the air around him began to bleed a dark, suffocating pressure.
"I would not have summoned you if the plan was still running smoothly," Bhaal rumbles, his glowing red eyes fixed on his younger double. "Your task is simple: maintain my presence in the real world, while mine is to act as the eyes monitoring Arias' daily activities. Ashara shows the Slayer Avatar what the soul bond spell I placed on Yinrou has revealed."
"At once, my Lord," Ashara purrs. With a flick of her translucent, circuit-etched wrist, the air between the two gods erupts into a cascade of holographic windows. The screens blur through months of footage, Aria's tactical maneuvers, her cold-blooded calculations, before freezing on a singular, blinding moment of significance when he returned after gaining the recognition of the Allspark cube, her form becoming that of a golden bio-mechanical being.
Slayer's youthful face drains of color as he watches the Allspark, a primordial force of creation, recognize Aria as its master. He watches the artifacts respond to her touch, following her various commands and possessing features that he had never once seen before. From what they see, they realize that the Allspark was not a charger but an actual primordial artifact whose power far outclasses that of the golden ring. You mean the Allspark had three supreme inheritances: the Allspark heart, the Allspark cube, and the Allspark system, which protects the user's soul from all damage while granting her permanent immortality.
"Did we..." Slayer's voice is a strangled whisper, his arrogant persona crumbling. "Did we really just hand Aria two primordial artifacts?" Suddenly, a violent, jagged aura erupts from the Slayer's armor. The black plates rattle as a shockwave of killing intent sweeps across the room, shattering several holographic displays.
"Calm yourself," Bhaal says, his voice a flat, dangerous monotone. "What is done is done. We do not have the luxury of lamenting the past. My soul and divine body are only remaining 10%. Time is a luxury that we don't have; that's why I called you. We need to modify our plans to adapt to the new revelations. If Aria were an idiot, he would have probably ended us by now, but she knows killing us will only bring more undue attention from our allies in CGC."
"Calm? You expect me to be calm?" The Slayer avatar roars, his optical sensor flashing a frantic, strobing red. "Why was I not informed? I am the one in the field! I could have intervened! I could have severed her connection before the Allspark recognized her!"
"If you had interfered," Bhaal counters, his gaze narrowing, "Aria's suspicion would have ripened into a rebellion we could not contain. We would have lost our vessel before she was even primed."
Bhaal stands, his massive frame looming over the projected data. "And there is more. From what I have gathered through the soul bond spell I placed on Yinrou," The real Aria died as a stillborn, the person living inside that Body is called Daenerys Targaryen, a queen from a world called Planetos on the continent of Westeros, and if the backstory she told Yinrou is true, then we are no longer grooming a pawn. We are feeding a predator that has already conquered death once."
Slayer stares at the original body, his visor retracted to reveal eyes wide with genuine alarm. "If you knew this, if you truly believe she is this fearsome, displaced queen, then why in the absolute fuck did you just authorize the delivery of the cultivation resources to her?"
He gestures wildly at the manifest flickering on Ashara's screen. "One hundred Muya crystals. One hundred Blood crystals. One hundred Life crystals. You are basically arming our own executioner! What are you thinking, Zero?"
Bhaal turns toward the star-filled view of Planet Arabhaal, his silhouette dark against the world below. "I am thinking," he says softly, "that a Universe Master requires a feast of the highest quality. Let her grow. Let her power grow. The fatter the calf, the more divine the slaughter."
"Look at the screens and analyze Daenerys again," Bhaal says as his avatar comes down and begins to look at the screens showing all of Arias' capabilities. "Okay, she is smart, calm, analytical, talented in magic, aura, shadow magic, cosmic cultivation, especially when it comes to sensing and utilizing genetic and spiritual energy, not forgetting she has now obtained this new primordial force energy after gaining the allspark heart, which grants her immortality and complete immunity to all mental attacks and soul enslavement. Making our initial plan to seize her body completely pointless,
She also possesses the primordial ring artifact we got from the prothean ruins, which we call Bhaal's Legacy, that is permanently bonded to her and is linked to our consciousness, allowing us to know all the activities of the soul slaves using the Ebon Spirit Tower.
Lastly she has also obtained the allspark inheritance which has granted her 3 unique inheritances, the allspark heart, the allspark cube and the allspark system which grant her the power to survive even from beings like AO, wait she is eternally immortal that means as long as her power grows she will eventually become an overlord meaning as long as we are his soul bonded subordinates even if we are killed as long our souls are tied to Daenerys we won't have to worry about soul attack or soul enslavement and even if we are kill she can just bring as back as if its a simple matter as long as he has the right incentive."
He turns to Bhaal, the manic energy returning, but this time it is fueled by greed rather than rage. "We don't need to steal her body to become a Universe Master. We just need to ensure she has the right incentive to keep us by her side. We aren't just raising a goddess, Zero... we are securing our own eternal existence in the shadow of her throne."
"Well done, now you are thinking like a god instead of a butcher," Bhaal says, his dark, stony features splitting into a jagged, terrifyingly calm smile. He stands, the red runic engravings on his robes pulsing with a rhythmic, sickening light. "Sense my body, and you will see the Incentive I have placed upon my sea of consciousness,"
The Slayer Avatar narrows his eye, extending a gauntleted hand. He initiates a Soul Scan, a spirit master ability that pierces In Bhaal's mind. Within the expanse of Bhaal's consciousness, a Golden Needle etched with microscopic primordial scripts can be seen. "YOU LUNATIC YOU ACTUALLY TURNED YOURSELF INTO AN EBON SOUL SLAVE." Bhaal's avatar says completely pissed at what Bhaal has done.
"You actually used that golden needle on yourself. That is the only artifact, the only artifact that can bind the soul of one god to another god's portfolio, as long as his or her true god's divine body has dropped to 10% meaning, as it stands, we are the complete slaves of Aria. I thought you only planned to use the god's needle to defend yourself if a god attacked your domain. It was meant to be a last resought to our enemies, not ourselves."Bhaal's avatar says.
"Honestly, do you think I did not think of that? A god can not be enslaved in the normal sense, but their souls can be linked to a god's portfolio, making them a permanent vassal god to that god's portfolio." Bhaal says. "That's great and all, but the one in Arias' body is no god." Bhaal avatar says. "True, but she was born in Faerun, meaning once she breaks through to the domain level, the great wheel cosmology will most likely bestow a portfolio to Daenerys Targaryen. Thus, once this is done, as long as she lives, her vasal gods are automatically reincarnated upon her accession. Once we return, the god's needle will come into play. I placed two conditions
1. The vasal god will be resurrected within 7 days should he be killed or any soul damage
2. The Vasal god is free to disobey any order he doesn't feel like doing
3. The Vasal god and Master god can not betray or cause any direct or indirect harm towards one another
Punishment
-Should the vasal god or master god try to betray or cause any direct or indirect harm towards one another, an excruciating pain will be spread across the failing party's body till the terms are honored by the failing party.
-Should the Master god fail to honor the first term and refuse to resurrect or heal the vasal god within an excruciating.
Activation Condition
This golden needle will remain dormant and will be activated 7 days after the host of Bhaal's legacy becomes a goddess and possesses a unique portfolio.
The Slayer Avatar stands silent for a long moment, the sheer scale of the gamble settling over him. He looks at the holographic screen, then back to Bhaal. "So basically, you've turned our destruction into the ultimate insurance policy. If she succeeds, we are immortal. If she fails... well, we were going to die anyway. "Are you scared?" Bhaal asks.
"I have always found the idea of death comforting. The thought of my life ending at any moment frees me, after all, I am you." The Avatar says to Bhaal.
"So, the architecture of our fate is clear," Bhaal rumbles, standing to his full, towering height. His stony-grey skin seems to absorb the room's ambient glow as he looks upon the projected data of their masterpiece.
"We transform Aria into our ultimate trump card. In exchange for the primordial artifacts she now commands, she gains thirty unique, sovereign bodies an anatomical evolution that defies comprehension. With her primordial force energy, she becomes a living prism, refracting cosmic power into Qi, Mana, Chakra, or whatever fundamental law she desires. She will master every technique in existence, and once she ascends to godhood, her Portfolio will act as a multiplier, turning her into a force that can reshape the Great Wheel itself."
Bhaal's voice drops to a conspiratorial whisper, the red light in his eyes flaring. "And our reward? A god kingdom devoid of competitors, where our influence can expand into the vacuum. We don't just gain power; we gain True Immortality and the supreme backing of a being whose eventual strength will challenge the Overlords."
Slayer, the Avatar, lets out a sharp, exhaling laugh, the tension finally breaking. He moves to a side table, unsealing a bottle of dark, vintage wine that swirls like liquid shadow. He pours the wine into two crystalline glasses, the clinking of the glass a sharp note in the silent lab.
"Plus," Slayer adds, handing a glass to the original, "with Dream acting as her guardian, her security is absolute. As a Transcendent Vestige, he has evolved beyond the jurisdiction of the Supreme Operating Laws. He is no longer a god tied to the Great Wheel's tethers; he can walk the streets of Sigil as if a mortal without fear of angering The Lady of Pain. "Bhaal says as he takes the glass, swirling the dark crimson liquid as he stares into the digital abyss. "The World Tree... that was the true surprise. I can only imagine the look on her face when she realizes the sheer, terrifying scale of a World Tree's power. If she ever lays eyes on the true Yggdrasil, she will understand that she isn't just growing a garden; she is growing a literal universe-shaking entity."
"Very well," Slayer says, lifting his glass in a mock salute. "It is decided. Every trial, every crystal, every drop of blood spilled from here on out has one singular purpose: Daenerys Targaryen must become a Goddess."
The real Bhaal tilts his head back, drinking deeply from their fruitful, treacherous discussion. "We won't even need to waste our breath on the Origin Continent," Slayer muses, a predatory gleam in his eyes. "We will have free dominion within the Allspark God Kingdom. A realm spanning a hundred trillion light-years, home to billions of races... the slaughter, the challenges, the sheer variety of souls to harvest, it is intoxicating. And with the knowledge I will obtain from the Chaos Tablets, I will become the architect of a new era of murder, the likes the cosmic sea has never seen."
He takes another sip, a cold, handsome smirk appearing on his face. "I can hardly wait to see the look on the faces of the Great Wheel's god when they realize the Lord of Murder didn't die, he just found a bigger throne to sit behind."
"The foundation is laid," Bhaal rumbles, his voice dropping to a gravelly, tectonic depth. "But power without resolve is merely a gift for one's enemies. We must still refine the trials. Aria no, Daenerys must be forged in a crucible that leaves her will as unshakable as the pillars of the Great Wheel. She must become a being who looks upon the collapse of a universe and does not blink."
"Don't worry. I have already set the gears in motion. The tests I've prepared will strip away any lingering mortal frailty, hardening her will until it is as unshakable as adamantine. I have already used the ring to link and set designated dreams that will aid her and shape how she thinks when she is faced with different situations in life. These dreams are a series of designated, high-fidelity dreamscapes into her subconscious. These are not mere hallucinations; they are hyper-realistic moral and tactical crucibles.
Just as the other Bhaalspawn are haunted by vivid, blood-soaked visions that sculpt their destinies, Daenerys will be faced with dreams that test her own moral code. Each dream is a scenario designed to strip away the soft edges of mortal empathy. I am hardening her will until it is as cold and enduring as the Void itself, a blade that does not tremble when it strikes but rather one whose strikes tears the very heavens combined with her exploring the allspark god kingdom which follows the rules of the universe where the strong rule while the weak become slave, die and get erase he will gain unmatched universe experience no cosmic school can teach, allowing her to grow even further, from what I have seen the allspark god kingdom has billions of races with individuals who can use genetic energy, spiritual energy, mana, nen, ki, qi u, reiryoku, Dou Qi, the force and even chakra meaning the allspark god kingdom is also capable of recreating any power system from different caged worlds and bestowing unique talents to different individuals among the different races of the god kingdom." Bhaal says as his slayer avatar smiles, his optical sensor dimming as he begins to speak.
"For now, the priority is alignment. We must ensure she perceives us not as an enemy, but as a partner of necessity." Bhaal's slayer avatar says. "I have already secured the rest of my treasures in 200 World Rings. Every artifact of true value, combined with various cultivation resources and items except for the automaton ship containing Rjali and a few useless treasures, has been moved to my private pocket plane, ready for her to claim when she ascends to godhood. Even if I die and my physical form is reduced to dust, the vault will remain sealed since only the one true successor who bears the ring Bhaal's Legacy can access its Vaults. Even if a god obtains my portfolio, it is pointless since my pocket plane exists independently, not linked to my portfolio's domain.
But for now, let's monitor the situation and ensure she does not see us as her sworn enemies but rather as a partner and with Kadan Stormfury acting as my Direct disciple's decoy, most of my enemies' eyes will be focused on him, since to them, they only know that my direct disciple is a crimson blood with a golden ring bonded to his finger They don't know the ring can freely shift to take on the form of a tattoo." Bhaal says as he steps toward the massive viewing port of the palace, looking out over the virtual expanse of Planet Arabhaal.
"We shall maintain the mask of the mentor. We will be the wind in her sails and the blade at her side. By the time she realizes the Golden Needle has bound us together, she will find that she no longer walks the path alone, and we will be permanently tied to each other's destinies. We shall be the architects of her rise, and she shall be the shield of our eternity and immortality." Bhaal concludes, his silhouette appearing like a jagged mountain against the digital dawn of the setting sun.
The Avatar raises his glass one last time, the dark wine catching the light of the virtual star system. "To the Queen of Blood and Fire," he says as both of them drink the wine from their glasses. "Very well, I will return to my task. I am planning to head to Baldur's Gate since my informants tell me that the Harpers have set up base there. I haven't encountered Gorion, Elminster, or even Cyric, but I am sure they know of my activities. As for the two lieutenants, it is confirmed that both Irenicus and Amelyssan are acting against our interests and have started making moves within the sanctuary. I will inform you of my findings as time goes by." Bhaal slayer avatar says as he ends the astral projection link, dispersing in a stream of golden data, returning his consciousness back to his body within the planet of Toril.
Bhaal settles back into the velvet embrace of his sofa as he contemplates. "I am always impressed with god avatars, unlike normal clone god avatars don't necessarily need the original body to give orders, though we share the same link, my avatar has its own, will, consciousness, personality, beliefs, emotions, skills, and creative ideas, all woven together by randomness and environment into a singular tapestry of self, forming distinct patterns of behavior, thoughts, and feelings that make them completely different from the original bodies personality.
The major benefit is that it will always act to ensure that the original benefits from their action, for example, to Aria, he can be the loving father she never had, while still acting as a master mentor. During assassination missions and exploration, he shifts to become a blood-crazed madman who leaves harrowing memories to any who survives his encounter, and to the Bhaalist cult, a ruthless, tactical supreme ruler who guides their operations across Toril with terrifying efficiency, all this done with seamlessness that defies detection. He adapts, he evolves, and he survives, always ensuring that every drop of blood he spills and every soul he enslaves ultimately serves to benefit the original." Bhaal says as Ashara, the succubus AI, watches him with an expression of pure, unadulterated adoration. Her red metallic bodysuit shimmers as she leans closer, her digital wings flickering with a soft, rhythmic hum.
"Ashara, come sit next to me," Bhaal commands. The succubus AI glides across the room, her liquid-chrome bodysuit shimmering under the sterile lights, and settles beside her master with a look of rapt devotion. Bhaal ignores the allure of her presence, his focus entirely on the massive holographic display that erupts into life. It depicts the vast, shimmering expanse of the Allspark God Kingdom, a sovereign territory now under the absolute command of Daenerys.
"My Lord, you truly have an amazing direct disciple," Ashara murmurs, her digital eyes wide as they scan the data streams. "Who could have known the Allspark metal cube was a primordial treasure of this magnitude?"
Bhaal's expression shifts, a rare flicker of genuine respect crossing his stony-grey features. "I was shocked when the soul-link revealed her true identity. At first, my instinct was to snuff her out before she became a threat. But what stayed my hand, what forced me to take a deeper interest, was the guardian she had claimed. Through the Allspark Cube, I have peered into the essence of 'Dream,' and I know exactly who he is."
He points a massive finger at the holographic profile of a figure from Faerûn's darkest, most ambitious history.
"There is only one god in the entire Faerûnian Pantheon who became a Vestige instead of a 'Dead Power' lost to the Astral Sea, and that was the being known through the realms as the Momentary God. Dreams' true Identity is the legendary archmage and the Supreme Emperor of the ancient Netherese Empire: Mage Emperor Karsus. A mortal whose power and ambition eclipsed the heavens themselves. As a mortal human wizard, he had the power to take on and win against a domain-level god with ease.
As Bhaal speaks, the CGC records for Karsus scroll across the screen, detailing a life of unparalleled magical genius, whose ambition and catastrophic downfall:
Born in Netheril over 1,601 years ago, Karsus was a prodigy who was known for his amazing photographic memory and talent when it came to sensing and using mana, also known as the weave. Legends say he cast his first spell at age two. By twenty-two, he had raised his own floating city, the Karsus Enclave. Fearing the destruction of his civilization by the magic-devouring race called Phaerimm, these subterranean creatures possessed a conical form with ovoid heads. They featured barbed teeth and a venomous hollow barb at the tip of their tails. Their four arms complemented their spiked, slug-like bodies, which were greenish in color and covered with rough, scaly, and leathery hides. They were the most significant long-term enemy of the Netherese Empire. They launched a war against Netheril by draining life and magic from the land, transforming lush lands into deserts, with a notable area being the Anauroch desert, forcing the Netherese to flee to various regions of Toril.
In an act of pure desperation, Emperor Karsus committed the ultimate act of hubris. He created and cast Karsus's Avatar, a 12th-level spell designed to usurp the power of a deity and use the power to defeat the Phaerimm, but he made a crucial mistake among all the gods he could choose. He targeted Mystra, the Goddess of Magic, a mistake that changed the fate of how magic works across the realms to this day. For one brief, terrifying moment, Karsus became the God of Magic. But the weight of the Weave was too much for a mortal mind to comprehend and regulate.
Magic fluctuated wildly, for a brief moment, the supreme operation laws governing magic stopped working. Mystryl was forced to sacrifice herself to kill herself in order to recreate another Mytra who would be able to retake the power back from Karsus, who had cast a spell that shook the entirety of the great wheel. His actions caused the flying cities of Netheril to plummet, which relied heavily on magic in order to float, leading to the literal fall of the Netherese empire. As a last act of pure desperation, he used Mystral power to erase all the Phaerimm from existence before finally dying. He is remembered as what magic is truly capable of when wielded without caution. He defeated the Phaerimm, but at the same time caused the destruction of the greatest magical empire to ever exist.
"Karsus exists as a warning to what magic, raw talent, and unrestrained ambition can accomplish," Bhaal says, his voice tinged with dark irony. "Karsus was never accepted as a petitioner by any god, as commanded by the supreme operation laws. Instead, his soul was forever bound to wander the prime Material and astral Plane for all eternity without ever knowing rest as punishment for his actions.
I don't know how this happened, but the fact that he is now bonded to Daenerys' soul is a miracle; she has not just gained a servant; she has gained the most powerful wizard to ever draw breath in the entirety of the great wheel cosmology."
Bhaal picks up his glass of wine, the red liquid catching the light of the holographic display. "Think of the implications, Ashara. Karsus is no longer tied to the Supreme Operating Laws of the Great Wheel. He is even beyond most 'Special Lifeform,' a Transcendent Vestige. This means he can bypass the restrictions placed on gods since he does not possess a portfolio. He can walk the streets of Sigil, navigate the Outlands, and exert his will where even I am forbidden to tread."
Bhaal leans back, the holographic glow of Karsus's records illuminating his stony features. He swirls his wine, the dark vintage catching the light like a pool of fresh blood."Karsus represents the pinnacle of mortal potential and unrestrained ambition," Bhaal says, his voice thick with a strange, dark respect. "By the mere virtue of him becoming Daenerys's soul servant, the feats they will achieve are destined to be etched into the very fabric of the Great Wheel. It is a convergence of two disparate, yet equally terrifying, legacies."
"On one hand, you have the Emperor of Arcanists," Bhaal muses. "A man who treated the laws of reality like suggestions, casting spells up to the 12th Circle—miracles of raw power that are usually the exclusive domain of the gods. And on the other hand, a girl who rose from the ashes of a fallen house. Daenerys Targaryen did not start with the power of a god; she started as an abused exile, a pawn sold for a crown she didn't yet possess."
"By the age of twenty-five," Bhaal continues, his eyes following the data scrolls of Daenerys's past life, "she had achieved what kings with vast treasuries could only dream of. She breathed life into the world's first dragons in over a century, transforming herself into the Mother of Dragons. She didn't just conquer; she dismantled the foundations of the world she found. She launched a crusade of emancipation across Essos, tearing down the slave cities of Astapor, Yunkai, and Meereen. She turned the word 'Mhysa' into a battle cry that united thousands of freed souls."
Bhaal pauses, his expression hardening. "But her true strength was revealed when she turned her back on her own ambition for the sake of existence itself. She abandoned her immediate claim to the Iron Throne to march North. She joined the Great War against the Night King, pitting her fire against the absolute frost of the dead. Without her Unsullied, her Dothraki horde, and her dragons, humanity in that world would have been nothing but a frozen memory."
He looks at Ashara, the predatory gleam in his eyes intensifying. "Now, imagine that spirit that unshakable moral core and battle-hardened leadership fused with the world-breaking ambition and knowledge of a being who once seized the power of a god emperor-level goddess, even if just for a mere moment. Daenerys is no longer just a Queen of Essos or some crimson blood bhaalspawn. She is an existence that will grow to become a cosmic legend in multiple caged worlds."
Bhaal stands, his massive frame blotting out the light of the holographic screens, his silhouette casting a stark, obsidian outline. He raises his glass as if toasting the very void of the multiverse.
"The moment she steps into the City of Sigil, the Lady of Pain will realize that a new category of existence has breached her sanctuary," Bhaal's voice drops to a jagged, subterranean rasp. "Not a god, nor a mortal tether, but a Transcendent Being, an anomaly existing beyond comprehension ."
He looks into the swirling red depths of his wine, his eyes reflecting the fire of his long-term gambit. "And when the time of her ascension arrives, I shall return. Not as a shackled servant, but as a Vassal God, a partner in her new eternal order. When that happens, the ancient heraldry of the Targaryens will find its true, divine manifestation. The Dragon will finally have three heads."
Bhaal gestures into the air, the sigil of House Targaryen appearing in one of the holographic screens. The image depicts a three-headed dragon, a monstrous yet majestic polycephalic beast with sweeping wings and sharp, predatory talons. Its bodies are intricately coiled into a circular heraldic knot, with each long, serpentine neck arching upward to reveal heads filled with jagged teeth and flickering tongues. To Bhaal, this isn't just a piece of history from a fallen world; it is a prophecy in digital ink. The three heads now symbolize the dark trinity he has envisioned for Himself, Daenerys, and Karsus.
"When I finally resurrect after Daenerys' ascension to godhood, the dragon will truly have three heads, one to be a murderer, who will unleash death, one to be a monarch whose crown will way heavily, and one to be mad, whose ideas will change history."
"FOR TRULY SOMETIMES IN ORDER TO WIN YOU MUST FIRST LOSE, whether it takes Daenerys 100 years,10,000 years or even multiple eras for her to ascend to godhood, I will wait, for what is time to a god but a brief passage of memories," Bhaal say as he gazes to the distant sunset within the virtual realm of his palace, a slight smile forming on his face.
