Previously on Children of Omne, Exile arrived in Lana's dream world and thwarted an attack by Jezebel and a Pride. With both of them defeated, he moves toward Lana.

I say "Ever wonder why animals seem to have a thing for you?" She nods, and I say "Not only are you a goddess of animals, a daughter of Heket, but you have Jezebel in you, Baal as well, so they were just waiting for you to die. Then they feed on you, to make sure that Jezebel's spirit couldn't infect any other person." Lana looks incredibly hurt and I say "Don't get me wrong, it was an act of love between siblings. If they really had that kind of hatred, they would have already killed you." Her husband draws his shotgun and says "Leave her alone!"

Lana's POV

I watch as the man in black says "Really, gonna pull out a crude, yet effective gun on me, cause I did something you were supposed to do and saved your wife's life?" My husband says "Leave her alone, you killed those demons so you can hurt her all to yourself!" The man replies, "Oh c'mon if I wanted to hurt her, I would have burned her in oil, and craved her skin and had her meat-eating animal friends consume her corpse. Though knowing that I've said it out loud, it sounds like something I might do to you if you continue this hostility towards me! It sounds fun." My husband says "One more word from your mouth and I will shoot."

He just pulls out a card and a marker starts writing on it. When finished, he turns around the card saying "Is this good?" My husband aims it at the man's head. The man makes a scissor motion with his fingers, my husband drops his shotgun and screams in pain. The man has disappeared, then my husband starts flailing his limbs as if they are foreign objects. I hear the man's laughing and say "You know I don't know why I bother talking to puppets." I fall down my limbs lifeless, I'm paralyzed. His voice saturates the air as if he is talking to an audience "Here we have two puppets, one is a puppet from the collective unconscious, who didn't get the memo not to interfere with me! This puppet, she was a puppet for Pride and the others. What happens when when they get together?" My husband is pushed behind me and he screams again, then his mouth starts moving and the man imitates my husbands voice "Get away from her!"

The man chuckles and asks in sadistic pleasure "Why? I'm saving her from Jezebel. Don't you want your wife happy?" My husband's mouth move "No, because you are disrupting her dreams." The man acts shocked "Really, you don't want your wife happy, because they aren't influencing her dreams? That seems kind of deceptive." My husband's mouth moves and says "So what?" I feel myself, being lifted up off the ground. The man says "Why don't we ask her what she wants? Lana, what do you desire most in life?" I feel like I can talk I open my mouth and say "Freedom!" The man says "Freedom? Well that's kind of broad! What kind of freedom, the freedom of speech, the freedom to kill people? What type of freedom?" I reply "I want true freedom from these strings, I don't want to be a puppet to anyone anymore!" The man says as if anticipated this kind of wish. "Well, that's a good wish! I'll make sure you aren't manipulated by anyone again, happy?" I nod my head partly being forced, but partly on my own free will. The man says "That being said, I need some sort of payment. 2/3rds of you soul would suffice, is that sufficient enough to help your decision?" I nod my head.

The man replies "Good!" I fall to the ground, my husband is set on fire, as he looks at me with pure horror in his eyes. I see the Man looking down at me, and he throws feathers in the air, he says "Glamor, you are needed!" A portal of light appears in the air and a dragon like serpent flies out.

Exile's POV

I greet the dragon like angel. I say to it "Good to see you again." The Angel says in Enochian, not wanting to make small talk "What do you want?" I get annoyed at him and say "You know, don't be so rude! You're worse than Jezebel. Fine, she wants to be free of all forms of manipulation, since currently she is a human puppet. I'll cut her strings, and you give her the ability make her own destiny and sense if someone wants to manipulate her. Obvious exception, you and me." The Glamor says "She will need protection." I roll my eyes and say "Yes, of course, make her a Lumen sage and you be her mentor. What being that you are one of the more powerful angels. Is that good with you?" The angel nods.

I take out Lana's soul and cut it into thirds and distribute them evenly. I then open a portal to leave, but I almost forget something and say to her "Sorry about this." I make another scissor motion freeing her, and landing on the ground, Lana screams in pain. I say "Yeah, sorry about that." She faints and I give her a kiss of the check and say "Goodnight little one!" I step into the portal to the real world.

Looking back on the dream worlds belonging to my sisters that I visited. I'm strangely… happy that this world has followed a different, better path than my world took. Returning to the waking world, Lana's clothes take on a similar attire to mine before dissipating. I look out the window, the rain has increased exponentially. Maybe I could ask Sapientia to help out with the weather a bit more. Knowing Greed he might be trying to flood the town with the school and everyone in it. Using my power, I create a barrier around each home and building, keeping anything that isn't liquid out from the field. I walk into Lisa and Lily's room once more, The prodigy continues to sleep soundly. Obviously she is enjoying the countless information that she is in possession, maybe she could have some divine assistance.

I create a communication construct and say, Braves, I have a mission for you. I need to help out Lisa with her use of her knowledge and if you can throw in the power of a Lumen Sage in mix, do it." I turn to Lily, the youngest member of our family. Due to her state of mind and body, entering her pysche would prove dangerous for her. Maybe there is another way. I place my index finger on her chest and call on another angel, "Inspired, I need your assistance. I'm in the presence of a 15-month old infant and I believe she has the potential to become a Lumen Sage. I need your help to protect her. I'll transfer you to her pysche." A glowing light appears and moves from my finger to Lily's heart. With the all of the family in a deep sleep, I can now begin phase two. I make a third call, "Sang Helios? Yes this is Exile, I have 10 of the 14 subjects ready for pickup at these coordinates and my clones have acquired 1 at these ones, 1 in the forest, and the other two at these coordinates. I want to personally oversee the process with those two special individuals. Prepare a rift to the Greater Ark. It's time to begin the Cyber-Hybrid Initiative."

While Exile has been inside Lana's mind, it would seem that he has been busy somewhere else. Who are these other these other three "subjects" that Exile has reported? Which two people does Exile want to oversee? Who is Sang Helios? What plans does Exile have for Lincoln? And what is this initiative and what does it have to do at this unknown location? So many questions will be answered in time. Until then, make your destiny.
