A Narrator's Rambling

Life's full of mysteries, isn't it?

Why were humans born? What's their purpose? Were they just meant to keep the world moving instead of letting it go stagnant?

But what's so good about it? Why do humans and things like romance exist? Don't they just tear people apart?

If for example, two people fell in love with the same person, what would happen? They would both promise to not go after that person. But what if one of them broke that promise? Doesn't that mean, the one who kept it will be in pain, facing the betrayal of the one they trusted?

The one who broke the promise gets the happy ending with the one they love, whilst the other one suffers in silent agony.

But what if, the one they loved didn't love them back? Would they be upfront and admit it? Or would they just silently decide to play along to not hurt the persons feelings?

Either way, the truth would come out eventually. And in the end, both of the people would be hurt.

Two friends that could have been there to comfort each other when needed the most, would no longer be there.

Then there's war. Conflict is started due to the difference in perspective between groups. Because of that, one would think the party that disagrees is the enemy, the villain. They don't see how their ideas or solutions could benafit the economy. Instead they see the flaws, like every human does. If a flaw is seen, they'll work against it. They'll believe what the other is doing is wrong. Evil. The darkness that taints the light. But, is that really true? Humans are unpredictable beings. And in the end, aren't good and evil, black and white, both sides of the same coin? And when combining the two, don't you get grey? There is no black and white in the world, there's only black and grey. Even if your doing something that you believe is right, in the end, there will always be someone who sees you as evil.

And finally, let's talk about death. Humans aren't beings that will live forever, they have limits. Who knows what marks the end of their life, they could die by old age, outside interference. Who knows?

But, is that it? Do they just live, only to die? What happens after they die? Are they just discarded?

Some humans believe that there's an afterlife that awaits after death. But seriously? Every year, month, week, day, hour, minute, second, dozens of people are dying while even more are being born. And that's literally it? How the heck do more humans keep on being made when their all in the afterlife? The bodies the humans live in are just vessels. Physical manefistations for their souls. Humans can't live without souls. So are new ones just randomly being made? Once one reaches the end of its physical life, that's it?

Nothing els? Just strait to the afterlife?

Its like being told of how awesome a game is but being disapointed by the ending.

But, what if...these souls are being re-used? Who knows what happens to them? No one is capable of coming back from the one way trip to find out the answer.

When huge knowledge is gained, its pretty much guranteed that others won't find out the answer 'for their own good'. Knowledge is power after all.

What's after death is one of the biggest mystery one will only be able to get the answer to at the end of their life. Some think death is a blessing, others a curse. Which one are you, I wonder?

But, enough of that. If I kept rambling on about the flaws of humanity and the questionable reasons for their existence, you'd get bored. And I can't have you falling asleep in the middle of this. Oh, but your free to have your disagreements with what I had been rambling about. Everyones got their own opinion after all. *Ahem* anyway.

So, here's a little detail pretty much everyone overlooks. Its why humans get judged so quickly. Within every human, within every item, there lies an untold story within. Seriously, do humans not realize this? Their too quick to judge one another.

But...its because of these things that makes them so interesting...whoa, back up. I'm starting to ramble again. Now that I think about it, is the rating even safe? I should go discuss this with the Author...oh well.

Anyway, in this world, only known of as Gamindustri, things are a bit...different.

In this fantasy-like world, there exists beings known as goddesses. Console Patron Units, CPUs for short. These beings, reside in the four Nations of Gamindustri.

Lastation, the Land of Black Regality. Lowee, the Land of White Serenity. Leanbox, the Land of Green Pastures. Planeptune, the Land of Purple Progress.

The duty of the CPUs is to protect the people of each of their Nations.

Now, before these four goddesses came to exist, there lived one goddess, who held the title as the one and only True Goddess. This goddess watched over the land known as Gamindustri from the holy lands of Celestia. The land that surpasses the reach of a human, were only goddesses may go.

As a cycle of life, even a goddess must pass away eventually. Nothing is eternal after all.

But instead of creating another True Goddess, this goddess broke the cycle, and created four different goddesses. One to rule each of the four Nations. Now, if one goddess made four seperate beings, wouldn't that mean they'd work together perfectly? Absolutely right?

Now, if a load of work meant for one person, was split up for four people, wouldn't that make it easier? Four people working together on similar goals? That's the same with the goddesses, right? They all just want to protect their Nations, right?

'All right, so I'm probably boring you with my off-script rambling. But stay with me a little longer. The Author took the time to give me this space, and I'm just the lowly narrator.'

Anyway, as expected, the goddesses had other ideas. Instead, they all decided that they wanted to be the one true goddess, instead of working in harmony. Crazy ain't it? Its like recieving 1/4 of work each from a boss. But instead of working together to lessen the load, they decided to compete against each other to try and raise the chance of them being the one next in line for the position.

And then, if some other being comes along to take that position like the Deity of Sin for example, they'd team up just to bash the head of the new competitor.

Well, then again. That villain was more focused on destroying Gamindustri rather than ruling it. So of course the CPUs would be able to work together. Cause what their doing is for their people, right?

Sheesh. I don't think I'll be able to understand them. Humans are unpredictable after all. Sure, goddesses (you know what? I'll just start calling them CPUs. Its shorter) are beings at a higher level than humans. They can do things humans would have a difficulty handling, running a Nation is hard after all. Politics, monsters, keeping the people safe and happy, dealing with the people who wish to cause some chaos, and probably a ton of other stuff the Author forgot to put in my script.

And, even though they can handle these things, the people don't see that they live the lives of humans. The only thing they have is the powers of HDD, Hard Drive Divinity.

But they live the lives of humans. They think like humans, they look like humans, they act like humans. They have similar ways of doing things, like humans.

Because of that, they are as unpredictable as humans.

So instead of working together to keep peace in Gamindustri, they try to kill each other for some pointless title. Aren't they already satisfied with the people of their Nations worshiping them? Isn't that already enough?

But...then again, its because their like humans that they'd have different views like humans.

Through disagreements comes conflict, through conflict comes war, and through war, comes death.

Nobody really enjoys war. People end up losing those close to them, their homes, their friends and family, the kind stanger that lended a helping hand. Oh wait! Now that last part sounds interesting.

Why? Its related to this story once you get past this...Prolog I guess. Maybe it should be titled Narrator's Rambling...oh well!

Anyway, so, I'm sure you all know how Gamindustri is made of the four Nations. What you didnt know is that Gamindustri is only a part of the world. What's the world called then? Who knows! It could be Earth, it could be something els. Gamindustri is like...the land of the goddesses, you get me?

Its the land ruled by goddesses. But it isn't the entire world. I mean, come on! Could you imagine each of their Nations make up the North, South, East and West of your world? That's just ridiculous! Unless the world is as small as Pluto...

'Ok, off-script again. The Author wants me to quit stalling and get to the story. Sheesh. Hm...actually, isn't my rambling kinda like what that other CPU does? I think its called fourth-wall-breaking...'

Anyway, so I'm sure a lot of you aren't really stangers to this, but what happens when you see a poor begger on the steets? You just walk right past their outstretched hands don't you? Its the same with animals right? Probably.

Now, put yourself in their shoes for a bit. Actually, do they even have shoes?

'Whoa Author! What's with that look!? What happened to your defult dull eyes?... Sheesh, fine.'

So, if you were in a beggers perspective, and you see dozens of people pass you by without so much as a glance, how would you feel? Angry? Sad? Betrayal? You need help, yet no one is there to give it to you. Having to face hunger on a daily basis. Facing the heat of the sun and the bitter coldness of the night. At some point you feel like dying, at others, you want to survive.

You see about dozens of people taking what they have for granted. They have everything you could only wish for.

Now, these things would end eventually. It could be by death or...well...either way, if you live a happy or sad life, death waits at the other side.

But, what happens if you are neither human or animal? If death refuses to claim you? That's torture by the world itself right?

Now, there's one way you could get back up on your feet. But, you'd have to harm someone. You don't even have the energy to stand. So that's your only way. Its not like you have much of a problem with that. You don't know nor care for any of the people you see. They didn't care to help you, so why should you care about harming them?

And harming someone was exactly what a certain lost soul, who's never tasted life or been shown any kindness, was going to do.

But...once your shown kindness...you realize, that the world wasn't what you always thought it was...

Then again...the world seems to enjoy causing pain to those whome find joy...
