Soul Thief
Irene felt suddenly wary of Edol.
"Don't look at me like that," Edol said.
Irene moved her eyes but said, "Edol, these humans are wandering Earth alone and confused. They can't reach Heaven or the Hells. Every time I visit there are more and more lost spirits. It's unbearable."
She said, "Oberon hasn't severed a soul in months, Edol. That is what he is supposed to do, Edol."
Edol looked at her. His eyes glossed over with golden rays.
Irene cowered.
"There you are speaking about Oberon again. He is all you ever speak about. You have a duty on Earth, Irene, yet I always find you two meandering about with one-another."
"Edol," gasped Irene.
"I created you to look over this world. You are the Goddess of Life, Irene. He is your opposite. By all means, you two should not have fell in love. It wasn't supposed to be you and him."
The galaxy behind Edol faded. He forged meteors with his fingers and sent them spiralling towards planets.
Irene watched with terror in her eyes as Edol destroy these planets she had just touched with her own powers.
"You are not to tell anyone about this," Edol hissed. "Return to Earth and work there. Forget about the humans for now."
Irene disppeared in fear, back to Earth.
Edol took a breath. The golden rays in his eyes and fingers faded.
He pressed his hand against his face, realized what he had done.
"Don't look at me like that," Edol said.
Irene moved her eyes but said, "Edol, these humans are wandering Earth alone and confused. They can't reach Heaven or the Hells. Every time I visit there are more and more lost spirits. It's unbearable."
