Then the next thing he saw was the giant energy ball up above, lit with an ethereal glow, pulsating with the rhythmatic beat of his heart, lighting the whole surrounding with an otherworldly warmth that he couldn't describe.
The calm water surface down below was azure Blue reflecting his visage, the sky up above was bathed in an eternal twilight with that large light ball of energy pulsating with an ethereal illumination at the center, glowing like a true sun.
The sheer amount of energy he felt in that thing as he peered at it left him paralysed. His heart thumped against his chest, even if he didn't have a heart in his ethereal body the felling was quiet similar.
*ba-dumb* *ba-dumb* *ba-dumb* *ba-dumb*
After 1 minute he finally calmed down, taking deep breath to calm his beating heart.
*Inhale* *exhale*...*Inhale* *exhale*...*Inhale* *exhale*...
After taking another minute to calm down his beating heart he finally looked down towards the only other thing in his immeasurable soul sea.
It was a small white ball made after the crystallization of magical energy but it was in a liquid state moving and shifting like it had a life of it's own, as for what it was for now he didn't know, it was so far away but he could still see it clearly.
After a thought he decided to walk up to it.
Then he took a step towards the small white ball of crystallized magical energy in front of him that looked so far away but felt in his arms reach. As his first step landed on the calm water surface below there was not a single ripple produced, he watched everything in fascination.
He said aloud still not taking his gaze from the small white ball of energy in front of him "So, this is my soul sea...Huh". As he moved towards it. He was left stunned and lost.
Stunned by the majesty of his soul sea and lost by just how expensive and grand his soul sea was 'are all soul sea's this massive' he thought with an absent minded look on his face as he continued to walk but then he heard the irritating voice again braking him out of his thoughts.
"It is your soul sea, you can just teleport there with a thought...hahaha" it chuckled with a mocking voice and a smirk at the corner of its lips as it spoke.
He looked towards the source of the irritating voice and with a thought he was in front of it.
As he teleported the first thing he saw was the small white ball.
This time he observed it more closely, It was 2 meter in diameter hovering a meter above the calm water surface which didn't even ripple when he had teleported here.
After observing it for 10 seconds he finally looked down...
And in front of that white ball of energy stood someone looking exactly the same as him, its face, its hair, its body, everything was a copy of him. One could say it was his twin but no, even twins don't look this much alike it would be more accurate to say it was his doppelgänger.
As they started at each other in scrutiny. The other him finally broke the long silence...
"How do you feel entering you own soul for the first time" the other him asked with a knowing smirk on its face.
But he just ignored the smirk and stared at him without replying for a whole minute. Then finally he decided to answer "I don't know...I guess...you can say...I'm...overwhelmed...I..don't know how...I can describe what...I'm felling" He replied as he again glanced at his soul sea. Trying to find the right word to describe just what he was feeling, but couldn't.
"So...." he began " Why don't..."But before he could continue,
"First thing first you should name yourself, its so confusing talking to you like this" the other him intrupted him mid sentence with a look that said it was very serious.
"So, you want me to name myself" He asked the other him as he stared him dead in the eyes.
"Yes"
"Alright, we'll start with that then" he replied the other him as he tried to think of a good name for himself as the other him scrutinized him with no expression on its face in the tranquil silence of his soul sea, where only the rhythmic pulse of the giant ball of energy could be heard.
He came up with many unique or weird name but none were to his liking.
'As they say 'Name' have power, So I can't choose a random name as it can very well define my existence in the future' he thought with a solmen look on his face, which was quiet comical when one think about it, he had such an expression when thinking a name for himself.
After good 10 minutes of thinking he finally came up with a good name that was to his liking.
It was a name that matched the dark and eerie place he was born in.
The Darkness, it was the only thing that gave him a semblance of warmth on the uneven cold surface of the earth. It was the only thing that embraced him on the silent cave giving him a sence of peace and belonging.
It was a name that would remind him of his humble origin. 'the small cave'
"Black.. that's a good name" he thaught aloud, and asked the other him "what do you think"
"I think it's good, it even matches the place of our origin" the other him replied with a nod as though giving him his approval as the 'bigger' man.
"Hmn...Hmn...For someone like you to think of such a good name, I'm impressed" the other him quickly added as though mocking Black as someone stupid forgetting the fact that both of them were the same beings....
