《Infinitium, Book 1》Chapter 23, A God's Will

(Day 105) July 7th, 2034 Center of Earth’s Universe
Raphael came into the God’s study silently and stood patiently.
“Yes,” the God asked
“The changes the mortal made to the race of Humans on Earth has reduced the number of souls released significantly,” Raphael asked.
“How significantly? the God asked.
“Enough that there have been less than 100,000 deaths in the last 18 Earth months” he replied
“The overall effect?”
“The overall effect is less than 1% of 1% “
“Negligible,” The God said.
“Thor” the God chuckled “This new Thor is expanding throughout its section of the Milky Way quickly. It has already spread into every star system within 10,000 light-years and will soon come into contact with another civilization that is centuries ahead of Earth. If conflict erupts the souls released from both sides should increase.”
“The Lexi?” Raphael asked
“Yes, hyper-intelligent, militaristic, and Isolationist. I do not think they will take kindly to being invaded by a technology they cannot understand.” The God paused for a moment. “I believe it’s time for one of the Lexi’s scientists to discover the human race, which is only 26,000 light-years from their home star.
“As you will it, so shall it be. Raphael said, then turned on his heel and left the God to his musings. There would of course be souls freed but humanity wasn’t going to be releasing very many of theirs anytime soon. Thor was living up to his namesake. If he somehow developed a Soul? He mused. Well, then a being worthy of the name Thor he would definitely be. It would be interesting to see what Thor would do next.

Delve
Truth hides behind action. Delve. A word with many meanings. It may refer to an abyss, a dark place of no return or may also be a refuge, a haven of retreat from the harshness of the outside. None of those are right to me. For me, to delve is to seek the truth. Delving into that dark abyss and coming back with answers. To leave that safe refuge and suffer the pain of the outside just because it is real. This is the story of me delving deep into the truths of the universe. Suffering things that should not be suffered in search of things that should not be known. Once a common man, drowned in the same questions that have plagued humanity since the beginning of times, now I have found my answers. Now I have meaning. Delve, and you shall have yours as well. Jack is a regular citizen of modern society: he works on an office, uses public transport every day, receives a meager salary, and drowns his frustrations with entertainment and alcohol. Maybe, the only thing that sets him apart from many others, is his unique outlook on life. Despite feeling an unfillable void in his soul and suffering from deep depression, he still sees as his duty to be a functional, exemplary member of society. All in order to prove his life-goal point: no matter how good you are, life is still shit. This point-of-view, however, will be challenged by circumstances as a mysterious encounter with a weirdly dressed man takes him to a strange and dark cave. In this place, he will have to fight for his life against fantastical creatures from fiction, and more importantly, get face to face with his own nature. In doing so, he will uncover secrets about the cave that will change both him and all he ever thought to be true.
