Epic of Caterpillar

"Kireina, I can feel several familiar presences in there!" I heard the voice of Nesiphae behind me. "Amiphossia might be there! Alongside Evan!"

"I can also feel some..." said Zehe. "My son? Ryo is there!"

"Hmm, I can't feel anybody I am related to," said Brontes.

"But there are definitely more people!" said Rimuru. "Perhaps many friends or those you know about, masta?"

"Hmm, I can certainly feel them," I nodded. "Not only our two last missing children, but also there are several of my wives there... And even... Ah! Frank and Elfina?! How are they all inside of that frozen castle?"

"Wait, stop moving!" suddenly I heard Flora's voice. "Kireina! Don't you feel it?!"

"What do I feel- Ah! Wait... Wall, stop moving!"

RUMBLE!

Wall quickly stopped moving after my command, instantly stopping right before her body were to pierce a completely invisible dimensional membrane covering the entire castle.

"I was unable to detect it at all despite spreading my Cosmic Authority so far..." I said. "Is this the wall to a Divine Domain perhaps? Or a Dimension of its own? A Divine Realm?"

"Maybe all three together," said Lucifer, stepping in as she smiled. "I think that whoever is in charge of that castle has been given tremendous powers. Skadi and the rest aren't the only ones that might be waiting for us."

"So that entire castle has created a realm... dimension of its own?" I asked.

"Yes perhaps in the same fashion that Outer Gods can expand their Void Realms or Domains and distort space or reality," Lucifer analyzed. "We should enter with caution; we might end up in a completely different place altogether. That you were able to sense all these people probably means that there's several of them entangled inside."

"Certainly, I've noticed how space and time around here had been growing more and more distorted..." I said, noticing something as I glanced at the sky. "Was there always a blue moon in the sky? And where's the crimson moon at?"

I had not noticed before, but the crimson moon was gone, and a blue moon took its place. Not only that, but the blue moon constantly exuded a strange, eldritch aura that distorted the skies.

This aura expanded all the way down here, combining with this strange dimensional wall. Could this castle be somewhat of a gateway towards the Blue Moon?

"I believe there's a connection with the new Blue Moon," I said. "Don't you think so, Lucifer?"

"Hmmm, ah! Certainly," she nodded, giggling. "Whatever is going on over there, it is as if that moon itself had become a space-time singularity, it is constantly distorting all of space and time within the surroundings and its expanding like a slow wave. This land of ice that had spread around is the starting point... Perhaps somewhat of a gateway? That castle over there." "So the origins of this strange dimensional wall are the moon over there?!" Lilith wondered. "Well, talk about ridiculousness! How is that even a thing?"

"I could give you a million ideas or reasons why this is happening, but none would be able to be completely accurate, I'm afraid I don't have any idea," Lucifer said. "Since I stepped out of Genesis that I've lost my ability to be able to tell everything. Genesis was my Domain, but in here or any other world? I'm just as clueless as anybody else."

"Hmm," Flora nodded. "Then we should go then? Despite the invariabilities, if it'll simply transport us towards another Realm, what do we have to fear? We've already landed on another realm several times anyways."

"Indeed, however we always end up being separated because of the damned fluctuations of space," I said. "This time though, now that we got Wall, that is not happening anymore." "Oh? I see, so you intend for all of us go easily go together within Wall..." said Lucifer. "But will it work? She's not strong enough to resist the pressure of a dimensional fluctuation as easily, she might end up shattering into pieces."

"The other method would be to be placed inside a Cosmic Realm," said Flora. "But at this point when we are all out, that's troublesome and a waste of time."

"Hmm, then can't we just enhance the defenses that little Wall has against spatial or dimensional fluctuations, Lucy?" wondered Aura, stepping into the conversation.

"I can also help in that regard, my abilities to manipulate space and even time have become very powerful," I said. "Let's work together. Also I'm glad you're okay now, Aura."

"Of course I'm fine! Those potions and elixirs you sent my way worked really well," he nodded, waving his long hair as sparkles resembling stars flashed. "Now, shall we begin? Let's combine our Authorities... Ah, remember when we did this when we tried to enter Helheim?"

"Yeah, we weren't as strong as now back then," said Lucifer. "But it's much different now, right? We could definitely be able to do it properly."

"Then let's do it! We shouldn't waste more time," I nodded. "Let's begin!"

We released our Cosmic and Divine Authority Auras out of our bodies, and quickly connected them into large barriers around Wall's entire body.

Wrapped tightly by our power, and then further enhanced in her defenses, Wall seemed much more ready than before.

"Wall! Close the shell! And enter the dimensional wall with all of us inside you!" I said.

"Okaaaaayyy!"

Her shell, a huge metallic dome closed, covering the top area where most of us were right now, the children gasped as they saw the metallic dome cover the moonlight completely.

"Let's gooooooo!"

Wall rushed towards the Dimensional Wall, passing through it with ease alongside all of us. However, the moment she was halfway through, immense tremors and turbulences

happened.

RUMBLE!

Space around us was beginning to rapidly distort and grow chaotic, invisible forces began hitting Wall constantly, but she kept herself together thanks to our barrier.

Until...

BAAAM!

She landed from the skies into the floor beneath, finding herself- and us, within an even stranger landscape than before.

The castle was right there in the distance, but the sky had turned deep red, there was red, purple, and black ice covering the lands, and giant lakes of red flames covered it all.

The worst part?

The Blue Moon had a face.
