《Agalma》Chapter 11

not this again, i had a hunch that those words would haunt me for a while.
When i gazed upon my surroundings i was in a completely black room that i reckoned expanded infinitely in all directions, it looked that way anyway. How could i see myself if the room was pitch black? don't ask me. Directly in front of me looked like some sort of small female child, wait no it was a little boy either way its body was completely white lacking eyes and a mouth. It still had hair but that was white too. Even without facial features i could tell it had it's view centered on me.
...was this god? no wait it couldn't be. Though it really felt like it , and unlike everyone else up until this point she/he seemed perfectly content to wait for my answer.
"Ehh not in particular" i said trying to choose my words carefully.
The stories about deities where mixed up so no one knew what was true, some people say it was a omnipotent omniscient, and omnipresent god, the next group saying they were flawed none mentioning it was a little kid. If there's one thing I've learned is to not assume anything so lets go as if it doesn't know my thoughts because it asked me a question but do gods lie. Sigh here we go again
It looked at me while not looking at me ,then started circling me like a shark would its target. An uneasy sensation was at the back of my feet but floating in mid space i couldn't go anywhere. I probably should say something.
"Uhh are you god" -Farron
Without missing a beat it said "Yes, one of them" -Janus
"... how do i know you're not lying" -Farron
" you can't " -Janus

Well seems honest enough, now that the initial craziness of the situation was swallowed my mind became hyperactive again. Why would a god visit me in my sleep?
"What was your purpose for visiting me?" At first it was slightly loud but it got lower and more respectful toward the end when i remembered who i was talking to. Luckily this was the most non narcissistic being I've met so far, only because it hasn't been insulting or degrading me just yet.
"I'm looking for a champion, all of the gods have a few scattered throughout the Cosmo's. I am the most juvenile god in recent creation so i only have 300 so far"- Janus
300 wow that seemed like a lot until i recalled they were scatter through out space
"Can i assume that you've been watching me recently... and why would a god even need followers" -Farron
"Since you've been born I've had my eye on you, and to answer your other question we don't" -Janus
Yikes , lets just avoid the awkward subjects
"Is it right to think you had me in consideration" - Farron
"Yes and no... Im not in the planning phase you have already been chosen" -Janus
"I Can tell you require reasoning, you're the type who wants to know everything huh, its because you can adapt to your situation and no more" - Janus
Was that it, so much for feeling special
"cant anyone do that though" -Farron
"Not as well as you, adaption is a key faucet of change which I preside dominion over. Think about how easily you accepted your families death, joining who you believed to have killed them, even Gwendolyn you went from hating her to sleeping in her room, you accept and move on rather quickly "
I couldn't even go a few minutes without hearing that name, but i couldn't argue with that either.

"You are the human equivalent of change ,so come my champion receive your bestowal" - Janus
I was getting powers, sweet. To what magnitude i wondered.
"what type of bestowal's do you mean"-Farron
my excitement could clearly be heard in my speech
"This is the part the gets my disciples most feverish , each power we give is specific to the individual so in a minute chance you meet another follower don't expect the same thing" -Janus
"I can only tell you the basic's of your abilities though as even i do not know what they will form into"-Janus
"Enjoy increased mental capacities far, calm in, and the power to overcome and adapt. you should be far superior in these aspects then your peers" -Janus
I'm sure to another person what she gave me sounded less then ordinary but I knew better. Strength wasn't everything and i wasn't much of a fighter to begin with this suited me perfectly.
My body began floating towards the pure white mass Until we were face to face. Stretching out her arm he began pointing her finger through my right eye. Unexpectedly his fingers went all the way through to his elbows then whole arm. The pain was non existent though so I endured the strange feeling. All i really knew was that things were going to change for the better, it was about time.
"Thank you" was the last thing I said
