《The Precursor》The Afterlife
Advertisement
Waking up was amazing. I probably just sat on my bed, staring into empty space. I've haven't really had the time to take a break. Creation is hard after all. But right now, I have some very pressing issues.
When I woke up, I realized that I had forgotten the most important thing: the afterlife. The afterlife is where all the souls go so without a place for souls to go, they would just wander around.
That's a pretty big deal since they can have some sort of effect on the real world. So I now have to quickly deal with the problem. Then it dawned on me. I could just stop time! Man, I feel like an idiot now.
I quickly freeze time. All the stress in my body quickly evaporates as I now literally have all the time in the world. Now to figure out the problem.
There are a lot of different options. Like heaven and hell, some sort of grim reaper one, a simple reincarnation type, or just a void that destroys souls.
I immediately shot the idea of just destroying souls. That would be a waste of potential. It would waste the lives of righteous people and too quickly end the lives of evil people.
But I do have some ideas now. First of all, the afterlife will not be in some sort of universe. It will be in a specially designed black hole. The black hole is designed to still have its effect of sucking everything in. But it will suck up every spiritual being. So basically, every soul will be sucked into the black hole.
They obviously won't die though. As I said before, that's a waste. But there's another special feature. The more righteous a soul is, the longer someone is on the planet. It still won't be very long, but it will give the person some time to pay respects or carry out there final wishes.

Evil people on the other hand will just disappear instantly. And there is no way to trick the void. It will be able to instantly read and decipher someone's soul. And no amount of soul protection can stop its effects.
But now for the afterlife itself.
The point of an afterlife is to bless the good and punish the wicked. But what about people in the middle? The way that Greek mythology does it disgusts me. I will make sure to never do it like that.
My first step is to divide the void into three stages. Elysium (from Greek mythology) is where the righteous can stay. I say 'can' because I will give the option of reincarnation. If they do reincarnate, they can keep some memories or abilities. They obviously can't reincarnate back in time, only in the future. Elysium will be on the "top" level of the void. Elysium will be the perfect place. It will be filled with lush, beautiful gardens that can provide everything good. Nothing wicked can take place there.
Beautiful and handsome dryads will serve people on this level. This level is paradise.
The next level is a lot more bleak. It shall be names Zoferi(also from Greek). This level will be where the souls of people who did nothing significantly righteous or significantly wicked. The place will be like an endless, ripple less, ocean. The water will reflect the grey, gloomy clouds that cover the endless ocean. This where a line will form.
The people on this level will just be reincarnated with no pre-ordained special abilities or memories. This means that a person could be a rich, powerful young master or a peasant that gets killed. It's all up to chance.
The third level is Hell, literally. That's its name and description. It will be a place that is geared towards individual torture. The space in Hell will be infinite and divided into cubical. Whatever the person fears the most will come true. If a person has a fear of spiders, spiders will constantly enter the person in every hole.

There will be very short breaks and the person will be immortal. So the torture will go on forever with no chance of forgiveness. A few people might be able to reincarnate, but the vast majority of people will be stuck in Hell forever.
Since I don't have the ability to manage the void, I create a non-sentient system that will make sure everything goes right. Then, I snap my fingers Thanos-style and create the void. Instantly I see millions of souls being poured into the void afterlife. It was interesting to see the souls of the races I created.
That got me thinking though. Where would I have gone if I had died? Would I have just been erased? That kind of sent anxious tremors down me. Without this random and amazing opportunity in my life, I would have been like every other human. I would graduate high school, graduate college, get married, find a job, retire, and then die. That kind of simple life makes me think of how stupid I was in the past. But now that I have the opportunity to enjoy an eternal life without fear of taxes or papers, I will make sure to more firmly grasp it.
I now see the loneliness that I'm building myself up to. I have only created one goddess to keep me company. I am going to change that and make a whole, lively family for myself. Those beings will be created and I will love them as my children.
With a new fiery determination, I clench my fists as I begin to think about what to create.
