STRIFE: A Life and Death Tale

Dannadise: "It's my time to shine. It's MY time to shine, yeah. Hahaaa, it's- 

Iyopptor: "Your time to shine, darling!" 

Dannadise: "HUH!? *WOOSH* You can't simply waltz in here like so. I'm in the middle of pumping myself up!" 

She leapt back like a startled cat. 

Iyopptor: "Hm-hmm, well my apologies, daughtah dear. But it would seem our meeting with Lady Xenophia is about to get underway." 

Dannadise: "Mhm… well when this meeting is ovah, will our home finally be ready to commence development and construction?"

Iyopptor: "Ah… Mhm. *Smirk* I can presume you're only asking that because its development means you'll be able to venture out into the cosmos, huh?" 

Dannadise: "Heheee, you know me too well, dah!" 

Iyopptor: "You impatient little monstah, you. Just you wait, my daughtah. You will become the most powerful of them all and venture further than ANY deity eye can see. Your day will come!" 

He brushes her long, golden hair just before styling it. 

They both stare into the shimmering mirror created by Dannadise's essence. She smiled from ear to ear as she watched her father follow the guides left by her mother, Illektra. Illektra herself went ahead of them both in order to greet Xenophia and Xenoshaa. She could be seen walking through a field of what looked like colossal building blocks. Blocks made entirely of light, then woven deeply together by essence to sustain its shape and new found mass. This also gave them a solid form that could be shaven down and sculpted. Note that these specific blocks are easily the size of houses on average. Some were even the size of planets and there were even a small unit within the thousands that were as big as galaxies and universes alike. Illektra smiled brightly as she stared at what would be the foundation of her new home. There was just one last step before that could happen.

Xenoshaa: "I've been great, Illektra. Mom sent me ovah here to grab you, so… leeeeet's gooo!" 

Illektra: "Alrighty DEAR-

Xenoshaa dragged Illektra along as she flew towards a large tower in the distance. It was a tower made entirely of essence from the one that sat inside. A black tower that looked as though it was oozing a dark mist from all about its structure. Xenophia's essence could be felt throughout the entire structure, infecting those too weak to approach with eternal, internal conflict. People Like Xenoshaa and Illektra were completely unaffected by this technique as they waltzed into the tower. Xenophia came down from its center to greet Illektra and her daughter. They all exchanged hugs and greetings before flying back up to the tower's center. It would be there that they'd sit and wait for Iyopptor and Dannadise to show up. As well as two others that were well on the way. Xenophia and Xenoshaa served up some tasty drinks while they awaited the arrival of the others. 

Xenophia sat across from Illektra with Xenoshaa and her father, Santa both sitting beside Xenophia. She and Xenoshaa wore formal, black dresses that were skin tight. Jeweled at the collar lining, the cuff of their sleeves and even at the bottom of the dresses as the dresses themselves faded as if they were made of nothing more than mist. The jewels themselves were black with dim red essence on the inside to give them their own unique glow. Their pitch black crowns showed off their mastery of the divine art otherwise known as Drive. A high stage of permanent evolution that we've seen take place within Delio-Dant during the battle at the Rebellion's base. Their faces were practically identical bearing big, black eyes, small noses, and full lips with red lipstick on them. Their skin was pale, barren of blemishes, and baby soft. Along with long, black curly hair that danced elegantly within the influence of their essence. Xenophia's husband simply wore an all red suit with black trimming and polished, black loafers. He wore a red, Russian-style, tall fur cap. His long, full white beard dropped down to his stomach. His skin was pale as well, icy to the touch with crystal blue eyes that could make even the brightest star lose its heat. 

Illektra on the other hand sat gracefully in her seat. She wore an all white, formal, sleeveless dress with matching stilettos. The dress had big thick, white feathers stitched on the lining of her collar, the bottom of her dress, on the edge of the sleeves, and even on her all white gloves that covered most of her forearms. Her skin was a little pale, but her blood flow was quite high. Which made her skin always seem a bit red no matter the situation or moment. But it added to her beauty as her face always held a bit of blush within it. Her eyes were a tad bit big, stricken with gold as they naturally glimmer in any environment. She wore blue lipstick on her plump lips along with blue eyeshadow. She smiled at her compatriots as they waited for the others. Everyone sits pretty as they sip on their drinks and mingle about the past and their many adventures. 

Xenoshaa: "Tuh, you actually did that to dah, mum?" *chuckle*

She giggles and laughs as she takes another sip of her drink. 

Xenophia: "Well of course, dear. You gotta realize, Xebeel specifically said a goddamn free-for-all, so…" 

She shrugs her shoulders whilst wearing a hysterical look on her face. 

Santa: "Dah, so she clobbered me one good time when he awakened to her drive form. T'was quite de experience, don't you agree my dear? Gahahahaaaa!!" 

Xenophia: "Well it's not as if ol' "Santa Claus" ovah here didn't get me one good as well. That stupid Gifting ability is great when it's on your side. But I'd have to say, I don't particularly like fighting against it, honestly." 

Santa: "Daaaawwwh, you flatter me, honey. *Glare* Ah, I can see that my comrade and your bloodlusted little girl have arrived." 

Illektra: "Ha, I see she's trying to show off for you all. But that won't work on us, nor our two other guests." 

They all turned to the lower depths of the tower to see Dannadise and Iyopptor flying up and towards them. Dannadise could be seen trying her best to uphold a tough front as she increases her bloodlust. Landing next to her mother as her father pulls out their seats. He giggles under his breath, watching as his daughter has now projected a series of astral figures based around fear. Everyone around the table got a little serious upon witnessing this. It showed them her monstrous growth, but it also showed them how ahead of herself she really was. It was well overdue to cut that down a notch… 

Xenoshaa: "Ah, you truly are better than I was at that age." 

Dannadise: "Heheee, well I am quite the- 

Xenoshaa: "And just like me at that age, you, my dear lack any clear signs of finesse." 

Dannadise: "Hahaaa~hahaa, great for you to- wait… what was that you old- 

???: "Oh that lil' calf there couldn't even hurt your average powerful beast. What's a lil ol' thang like that gone do to big bads like us? She's just far too precious!" 

Dannadise: "Hey, don't treat me like a ki- HUUUH!? It's you, auntie Hera'May and cousin Hera'Lis!!" 

She leapt into their arms as they landed on the meeting platform. 

Hera'May: "Heya, darling! I hope my powerful niece has been doing great over here in these neck of the woods." 

Dannadise: "I've been doing just fine, Auntie Hera. Have you been doing well on your job? Getting these barbarians to accept civil life finally?" 

Hera'Lis: "PFFFFT!!! You're fucking hilarious, Dannadise!"

Hera'May: "Oh you little twerp, you. But, yes, yes we have been very successful in our efforts to get all within the Omniverse to be civilized and evolved in this new manner we've introduced."

Santa: "That's great to hear, Hera. How has he been?"

Xenophia: "Hmm?" 

Hera'May: "Doh, that psycho there's been alright. He ain't been nothing more than a doting, idiot father to his children and an even more idiotic husband to me and his other wife." 

Xenophia: "Hmph! *Chuckle* well that's good to hear. But seeing that we've got everyone here finally. I'd say it'd be a good idea to get this whole thing underway, shall we?" 

Iyopptor: "I'd say that's a grand idea! Take a seat, Dannadise." 

Dannadise: "Okay, will do, dah." 

Everyone present promptly took their seats around the table. Santa himself stood up to formally commence the meeting between his family, Iyopptor's family, as well as Hera'May and her daughter Hera'Lis. 

"Greetings, family and comrades. We gather today to form a meeting between the Xenophia and members of her family from the Senkozen Tribe. And Iyopptor's own House of Azrufal led by Iyopptor and his wife, Illektra Azrufal. As well as Lady Hera'May and her daughter, the Huntress, Hera'Lis Maniaclese. We brought about this meeting to discuss the creation of the largest zone one can bring about within this new Civilization. The creation of a Clan itself!" Santa states as he extends his arms outward. 

Everyone present brought about the insignia to their house or tribe, basically donning their family crests. Each member sits in a proper style of etiquette when dealing in such formal affairs. They let a few moments go by before Xenophia stands up to present her offer to Iyopptor. Their dealings would be under the supervision of Hera'May. In present times, her daughters, Hera'Lis and Hera'Lou help her along with their huge team to supervise the creation of all clans within the Omniverse. Having at least ten members in every Colossaverse with their own sub teams to help with the labor and stability. Today's meeting would be Hera'Lis's first sit-in. She was being trained in how to properly enlist a new clan into the Omniversal Clan Listings for this Colossaverse. Seeing as there was less to hunt nowadays, she could actually sit down and learn from her mother for once. 

Xenophia: "Alrighty then, Iyopptor and Illektra… I've come with my family today to present a most generous offer for your current situation." 

Illektra: "And we have come to listen." 

Iyopptor: "Yes, I wish to hear what it is you have in mind." 

Xenophia: "What I have in mind today is the very reason Hera'May and her trainee needed to be here." 

Iyopptor: "Hm?" 

He looked over at Hera'May and her daughter. 

Hera'May: "Hehe, that's right, darlin'." 

Xenophia: "Today, I've come here to ask you both if you'd like to create a clan with me?" 

Iyopptor and Illektra were both left speechless by her proposal. Staring at one another as they try to comprehend what was just heard. Dannadise herself sat there with literal stars in her eyes. Waiting eagerly to hear her parents' answer.

Xenophia: "Now before you two answah, I'd like you both to know that Yahtorren and Lady Astacia Beelis have already agreed to make what will be the sister clan to your own. That is… if the two of you say yes today." 

Iyopptor: "My brothah, Yahtorren said yes, you say?!" 

Santa: "Indeed he did." 

Xenoshaa: "They've already started constructing it, I'll be stationed there until all is done once we're done here." 

Hera'May: "That clan there's going to be a nice one for sure!" 

Illektra: "Mhm… I have my answer then." 

Iyopptor: "And what answer is that, my love?" 

Illektra: "I have but one condition that we do this." 

Xenophia: "Hm? What would be your condition, Illektra?" 

Illektra: "I have conquered the concept of Fertility in my years of fighting those that lie beyond. I wish for you and your husband to bear Xenoshaa here, two younger siblings. A god and a goddess." 

Iyopptor: "Hrngh, Illektra!?" 

He stood up from his chair. 

Hera'May: "That's… that's quite the shocker." 

Hera'Lis: "Yeah… for what reason would you ask such a thing, Illektra?" 

Xenophia: "Heh, I'm not against it, but I do wish to hear it." 

Xenoshaa: "Mah!?" 

Santa: "Me neither, we both wish to bring another child into this verse. But two!? I must say I have to see how it is you can command such a thing." 

Xenoshaa: "DAH!?"

Illektra: "You are a part of the esteemed Family of Senkozen. If we are to make a clan with a Senkozen, we are to have the Senkozen bloodline here as well. We'll conceal your bloodline's presence with a new surname." 

Xenophia: "Heh, Xenoshaa wasn't there for the last meeting, and Hera'May left before it was said. But I have to say, you and your sister are two peas in a fockin' pod." 

Iyopptor: "Are you saying, Lady Astacia proposed this as well?" 

Santa: "She did, even went as far as to tell us of your ability, Illektra. Though I still do not understand it myself." 

Illektra: "Just allow me to worry about that. The daughter will stay here while the son will go to Yahtorren and Astacia once they're of age." 

Xenophia: "I'm guessing it's your wish to create a head family with the Senkozens at the lead?" 

Illektra: "Exactly." 

Iyopptor: "So the ten family idea will intersect with this one?" 

Illektra: "Yes, it's not honorable to have Xenophia help us and her family name isn't spread throughout. Just as ours will along with the eight other family heads." 

Xenophia: "Ha! Well one thing you all need to know is that I agree with that. The big jolly fockah over here and I always planned to have at least twelve more children. Xenoshaa ovah here already has a younger brother we left back at the base. Six children would stay here in this, the first Colossaverse." 

Santa: "The other six shall come with me and live in the sixth Colossaverse!" 

Xenoshaa: "Hmm… I had no idea you two had planned this far ahead!" 

Illektra: "It is quite the surprise honestly. But it's a highly welcomed surprise if I'm being honest. This just means we're a go for the creation of a new clan." 

Xenophia: "Hmph, that's perfect, now I have two clans out here in the first Colossaverse whilst Santa has two over there in the sixth. The plans we made so long ago are now coming to fruition." 

Santa: "Indeed." 

Iyopptor: "So we have ourselves a deal, good… now all that's left is for Hera'May to finalize it." 

Hera'May: "Already done. You'd be surprised to know I had peeked into the future before coming here. So I pretty much already know the full scenario here. Let's just mark this down as being complete." 

Hera'Lis: "Well it would be, but first they're going to need to name it. Seeing as this House of theirs and all the others are based around light. Why not call it the Light Clan, better known as…"

Iyopptor: "Hmm… the light clan sounds perfect, but an actual name, eh?" 

Illektra: "Hmm…" 

Dannadise: "Ooooh, I got it. Let's call my home, Luminaria!!!" 

Xenophia: "Hm!?" 

Santa: "Well then…" 

Xenoshaa: "Wow, I really like that one there!" 

Iyopptor: "I do as well." 

Illektra: "Yes, I'd have to agree!" 

Hera'May: "Then it's settled! Luminaria, the Light Clan, has now been officially enlisted!!" 

Everyone: "YEAAAH!!!" 

They all rejoiced within the tower of darkness created by Xenophia. Everyone summoned their Family Crests along with their signature weapon. Placing the edges of their blades together at the center of the table as they form an oathe. One that would be based around the star that was created by Xenophia, Santa, Illektra, and Iyopptor's own essence. A star that would be the very basis for faith to those that inhabit the clan. The Grand Star of Luminaria for all who come to claim this clan as their home. Donning the true start of a new era for Iyopptor and his family. 

Xenophia: "Let's bring this meeting to an end then. You all have to address your House of light and get it split into ten new houses, right?"

Illektra: "Indeed we do, and what will you all be doing now?" 

Xenophia: "Ah, we five have a meeting with Shiishiigami and Gaia coming up. Supposedly, there might just be a threat looking in the distance. Another final remnant of our chaotic time period that needs to be nipped in the bud, ya know?" 

Illektra: "Understood, Xenophia. I wish you all good luck and please, tell them I said hello." 

She extends her arm forward for a hand shake. 

Xenophia: "Will do, my love." 

She pushes her hand away and gives Illektra a hug instead. 

Iyopptor: "Great seeing you again, young Xenoshaa and you too, "Santa ". Heheee." 

Xenoshaa: "Likewise, old man Iyop. You be good now, Dannadise. My friends and I will be back to see you once you're in your late teens, alright?"

She extends her arms out for a hug. 

Dannadise: "Hmph, so be it. I'll kick all your butts when the day comes. Hehe, YEAH!!" *Leap* 

She leapt into Xenoshaa's arms at full force. 

Hera'Lis joined in on their hug as everyone finished their farewells to one another. Marking the official end to a very successful mission. 

Iyopptor: "Ah yes, make sure you tell that idiot Ripper I said 'Hello'." 

Hera'May: "Hahaaa, will do, darlin'!" 

Iyopptor: "Now then, Dannadise, Illektra, my one true love. Let us commence the creation of our new home!!" 

Both: "Will do!!" 

Dannadise: (Now it's time for me to begin my journeeeeey!!!) *Smile* "Omniverse… 

Here I come!!!"
