Cedric stood up feeling strangely calm and relaxed, he felt lighter looking down at the floor he noticed black fog around his feet… wait, he starts to panic, his feet were gone and he was floating. Looking up at Lust who had stepped awaze back from him,

"Keep that under control will you, I don't wish to do the eternal sleep thank you very much."

Confused on what she had meant he breathed calming himself down, not sure what all was happening. Once his feet had reformed he looked up at Lust with more questions than answer. Hearing her sigh heavy remaining at a distance,

"To sum it up, I don't get to devour your soul. Another deity has chosen you, well more like he stole you from under me."

Opening his mouth to start to say something she holds up her hand to stop him,

"I wish I can explain more but, your new master is calling."

Without another word his own body turned into black fog and he was gone in seconds.


Standing what looked like his vision? dream? He wasn't sure what had happened but he remembered something before being on the floor. Looking around it felt like he was floating in the middle of space but able to stand like he was on a floor, Black fog appeared in front of him forming a person, at first all he could make out was his wings on his back. Then standing a foot taller than him, thin and lean was a man with short black hair and black eyes, his pale skin almost looked translucent. Wearing a simple suite, it kind of reminded him of what the castle steward would wear but without the long hanging coat tails.

Amazed at what he saw he wasn't sure though who he was looking at, this new man grinned down at him.

"Welcome to our home."

Cedric took a look around and then back at him, wondering how this was a home.

"This is nothing but space, I am sorry but I don't fallow, what's going on?"

"Well it's simple; I am Morpheus, The deity of Dreams. This is our home; I am the ruler of dreams. I take any shape form I find necessary, I give dreams or nightmares as I see fit. I have chosen you to be my vessel for the mortal realm, my weapon if you so choose to see yourself at that. I will take you when I need to use you and use you as I please and for this your time is ever lasting. Once you tap into the power I have blessed you with the things you will be able to do are far greater than that of a normal mortal could ever dream of, what every magical being wishes for."

Taking a step back taking all what he had just said, he had read about Morpheus, even dabbled in dream walking. Never really taking the depth of what he had read in those books, wishing he had now. He knew more about the seven deadly sins then he did about this one. Why he would choose him a mortal who barely knew anything about him.

"I am still confused on why you choose me?"

"That is simple; I have watched you for many of years. Since you were just a child, your dreams were dark your life darker. I had put my plan in motion long before Lust got her eyes on you. I tested you with my power to see if your body could handle it. In term I became the darkness that lived in you. I didn't help it grow you did that all on your own. I was just there watching and waiting, soon you started pulling power from me without even realizing it. It happened most often when you were angry, pushed up against a corner and was tired of all the crap life was throwing at you."

Mauling over the information for a moment he proceeded to say,

"What does this mean for me now?"

"You had done 3 years of training at the Hall, now I will teach you myself what you can now do. You must get use to your new form or forms deciding on what you choose. Warning time here flows differently than in the mortal realm, what seems like years here can be just days or weeks in the mortal realm. You are a Deity now; there will be a work, hard work. From what I've seen you are more than capable to obtain full control over your abilities."

Nodding to him,

"Shall we start then?"

Morpheus smirked, nodding back to him.

"We shall."
