Darkness. Silence. Ay void stretg infinitely in all dires.
The scioushat had awakened in this nothingness was still weak, still uain. It had found a body—frail, fragile, insignifit. But it was a start.
Every step was a struggle. The body it inhabited cked strength, coordination, and even the most basic abilities. Hunger g it, pain overwhelmed it, and weakness ed it down. But the mind within refused to surrender.
It o grow. To survive.
Wandering aimlessly, it observed the world around it. The t trees, the endless sky, the creatures that moved with purpose—it was all so vast, so unknown. Every sight, every sound, every sensation was neiece of a puzzle it had yet to uand.
Then came the first challenge.
A beast lurked nearby, its eyes gleaming with hunger. Instincts screamed at the frail body to run, but the mind inside was calg. It had no ons, nth, no means to fight back. But it had something else—awareness.
It watched. It analyzed. And it learned.
When the beast luhe body moved—not with power, but with desperate agility. It dodged, barely esg the creature’s cws. Again and again, the predator struck, and each time, the mind adapted. Movements became smoother, reas became sharper. The body, though weak, was learning.
And then, in the heat of battle, something awakened.
A spark—small, almost imperceptible. A force that had been sleeping deep within.
The air around it trembled. The beast hesitated. The mind reized this sensation—it ower, however faint.
With a final movement, it evaded o strike and fled into the depths of the forest, leaving the beast behind. It had survived. It had learned. And most importantly, it had taken its first step toward something greater.
The path tth had begun.
