GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 923 Two Sides Of The Same Coin.



Ragnarok asked the shaman, "Where are the Omegas in the pack? There should have been one in the sharp tooth pack since they had a totem. But I see only you."

He is working towards becoming the only Shaman in the pack so he wants to know if he will have any competitors. 

The old shaman replied, "Yes, there was a shaman. She was still in the prime of her life. That is both a good thing and a bad thing. Being young means that she has a lot of potential. But that also made her as naive as a youngling like you."

Ragnarok rolled his eyes at the subtle remark. He said, "I know what you're doing old man."

The old Shaman didn't address his suspicions. He continued innocently, "She didn't want to be a part of Sauron's tribe after the way everything turned out. She said she wasn't comfortable with the way Sauron took the tribe. So she left."

"I assume that's why you think she is naive," Ragnarok said. 

"She is a naive fool. She missed out on the combined strength of the totem and braved the wild just because she couldn't bear to see some bloodshed. Bloodshed is bloodshed no matter how it was carried out and war is war."

He asked, "So she is gone just like that?"

"She probably joined another pack. That's the best thing that can happen to her but there's no other pack in this mountain range with a totem as strong as ours."

Ragnarok and the Shaman had a lengthy conversation that day. The old shaman spent the rest of the dim day and many dim days after that inducting the new Omega into the ways of the shaman. It is his duty as the one that allowed Ragnarok to become indentured into the Shaman profession. 

Ragnarok soaked up the teachings and the stories like an eager student. He settled into the tribe easily as the new shaman. He has nowhere he has to be. He is already a paragon so all he needs to do is keep his head low and survive long enough to become an Origin God.

Unfortunately, things rarely work out the way we want them to. There are dangerous undercurrents in the Lumen plane. Ragnarok's mere existence added more flux to those dangerous undercurrents. He stayed in the iron fur park silently without causing any trouble or making waves but his mere existence led to changes that he couldn't foresee.

The paragon system of Warrogs has a hierarchy. The connection between Warrogs is just a part of their divine ability. But their divine ability has been diluted so they only awaken the paragon part which is based on the connections between each other. Even then, they are not allowed to become transcendents because they will get access to laws and become able to interfere in the workings of their divine ability. 

But that's just the external problem. It is a problem caused by the wood elves and the fountain of life. The change that Ragnarok caused is an internal problem or maybe it is an opportunity. Only time will tell. He awakened the divine ability of an Omega. That action set other events into motion unbeknownst to him. 

The issue here is that Omegas work together with an Alpha. They don't work for the alpha, they work together with one. The Alpha leads the living while the Omega leads the dead. So the Alpha and the Omega are opposite sides of the same coin. One cannot exist without the other in the hierarchy.

To be precise, he awakened the divine ability of the Executioner. The Executioner is an Omega that acts alone and gains strength from the dead. The corresponding Alpha divine ability is the Emperor. The Emperor is an Alpha who works with an enlarged pack that can be as large as the entire race itself and also gains strength from the living. 

Another thing is also known about them, there is always an Emperor for an Executioner and vice versa. It has always been that way in the history of Warrogs. It is just that the Executioners are not well known compared to the Emperors. As it is, an Executioner has been born, which means that an Emperor must be born too.

Remnants of dead Paragons can still remain in this world. In a situation where those warriors had faith in a God, those remnants would have gone to the divine kingdom of that God. Those remnants can be empowered by their god to become angels. The Warrogs are able to achieve something close to that to empower themselves because of the spiritual connection that they have with each other. 

This spiritual connection exists on a very large scale. It mimics the connection between every being born within the plane and their plane. This connection binds all Warrogs together. The existence of an Executioner creates a void in the hierarchy that must be filled by the connection. 

Ragnarok's existence evoked the creation of an Emperor just as the dead warriors evoked the activation of the dormant divine ability within other Warrogs. A Warrog fetus somewhere awakened the divine ability of the Emperor. The resistance of the law fragments within the divine ability couldn't stop the determined will of an entire race. 

The law of devouring within the fetus became whole again. It was accompanied by the law of earth which Emperors have instead of the law of Slaughter. But things didn't end there.

This special event was witnessed by two entities. The first entity is the one that cursed the Warrogs. This entity goes by the title of Fountain of Life. The fountain of life is also the one that was watching Ragnarok. 

Ragnarok has been under its surveillance ever since before he was born. This surveillance existed even before he was born. The fountain of life has been monitoring him from the very moment he reincarnated into the fetus. He drew the fountain of life's attention when he began tampering with his divine ability.
