The Boy Who Burned the Heavens

"Some truths don't echo. They pierce."

🌌 [Scene: Sky of the Sealed Names]

Above the blooming battlefield, as the ghosts of wars faded into peace, the sky cracked — not with thunder…

…but with whispers.

Invisible lines of celestial script scrawled across the heavens, then vanished.

Each whisper… a name.

Each name… never spoken.

And at the center, a sealed sigil hovered, spinning slowly, burning gold.

> Lyara stepped beside Riven.

"That… that's a forbidden seal."

> "No," Mirael whispered.

"That's a Name Lock."

📖 Lore Drop: What Is a Name Lock?

> ✴ A divine cipher that binds the name of a concept, being, or place so powerful, its utterance causes ripples in the mortal plane

✴ Only three have existed

✴ The fourth? Sealed during the war between the Creators and the Defilers

And now… it was unraveling.

Because Riven stood beneath it.

⚠ The Sky Speaks – Voice of the Forgotten Creator

The air vibrated.

Not sound.

Not wind.

But meaning.

> "One among you dares to name what was erased before time," the voice echoed.

"Will you bear its consequence, Rewriter?"

Riven stared upward, unmoving.

> "I already burned for names I didn't choose," he said.

"This time, I'll burn for the one I will."

The sigil exploded in white fire.

A scroll descended — blank.

And a voice whispered in his head:

> "Name it."

🕯 The Echo of the Nameless

Riven's knees buckled.

Visions crashed into him.

A god falling from the stars, screaming a name before being torn apart.

A child born with no shadow.

A world that twisted inside out because a name was spoken twice.

And at the center of it all — a throne made of mirror shards.

Each shard reflected a different version of Riven.

One weak.

One cruel.

One… divine.

He stepped forward.

And he wrote.

✍ The Name: Igrath Vol

The heavens stopped breathing.

Trees shivered.

Mountains bent.

Even Lyara gasped, clutching her ears.

> "What did you just—" she stammered.

> "I named what the gods feared," Riven said, trembling.

"And now… I remember him."

👁 Reveal – Who Is Igrath Vol?

> 💀 The Original Creator of Contradictions

🔥 His name births paradoxes into the world

👁 His last known act: erasing his own identity to escape divine judgment

🕯 Riven has just given him form again — through narrative memory

Suddenly, behind the scroll, a form began to emerge.

Not a being.

A concept.

Cloaked in shifting realities.

Eyes that wept truths.

Lips that only moved when others slept.

> "You called me back," the voice whispered.

"Then I… will call you forward."

⚔ Bargain of the Forgotten Name

> "I am not enemy.

I am not ally.

I am a question."

> "Then answer me," Riven growled.

"Why was I made to burn?"

Igrath smiled.

> "Because you were meant to rewrite what even gods didn't dare."

A finger touched Riven's chest.

> "And your flame… is divine rebellion."
