Part 2
Now, let's pause and rewind a bit to a portion where I talked about a race of entities known as the "Engineers".
Engineers are a race of godly, powerful beings created by Vhythrarc to be cosmic slaves, essentially; cosmic slaves to eternally serve the Supreme Beings forever and for all eternity.
But, eventually they got fed up with it and their benevolent leader, Prometheus, had a nice and calm talk with the Outer Gods(the ones who enslaved them) and it ended with them being freed without any complications, and everyone got cuddles!!
SIKE!! What actually happened is that Prometheus, Ilith, and many other engineers rose up against their oppressors, came together as an army that began to very brutally murder and behead countless eldritch beings, used their body parts as weapons, and eventually won the war. They then demanded to be left alone, to which the Outer Gods were damn near forced to agree, knowing it wouldn't end well for them otherwise.
However, laws were strictly put into place upon their freedom.
The main one was that they could not have sexual relations with anyone outside of Engineer blood, for this would most likely make an unstoppable anomaly that could ruin the timelines. This was due to their sheer power, the strange properties of their blood, and how unknown this race was. Who knows what hybrids they could create!
Remember that Shabha is the daughter of a supreme being and the literal queen Engineer, so as you can imagine, she is like... a MEGA anomaly with about a thousand targets on her back for just existing.
So, if a normal engineer having a child with a different species is an anomaly, imagine what you get when you combine a whole Supreme Being into the mix.
And now that we have those details explained, we can go back to Kignna, who is now with Aikdar after selling out Azathoth.
So, Kignna now has her vengeance; she sold out Azathoth and watched him be dragged away to what is essentially execution. So, at the moment, she's flying high on cloud nine from happiness, as you can imagine. She can finally have what she's always craved! Aikdar was going to make her a queen!
Well, these happy thoughts and excitement only lasted about five minutes, until she looked over and saw Aikdar conversing with the young Shabha, a look on intrigue in his eyes. The same look of intrigue that Azathoth had in his eyes for her, if not more.
Oh yes, her nightmare was coming true: Aikdar had a liking for Shabha as well, one that outweighed his liking for her. Kignna walked over and tried to politely ask him about her status, and he very viciously backhanded her across the face in annoyance, telling her that "she was useless to him now and that she will know her place".
Kignna was PISSED! She had done all this for some attention and recognition! She just wanted to be loved and this brat that didn't even WANT his attention was getting it all! It wasn't fair!!
Timeskip to about... 10 years later, maybe. Shabha is now a teenager who was trained by Aikdar in combat and has had some horrible altercations with her eldritch "siblings", where they basically beat her up multiple times. I'm not really gonna go into too much detail as of yet because the small details will come out in the full book me and Gal will be writing eventually~ But anyway, yes, Shabha has grown into a teenager and has the full attention of Aikdar on her. Kignna on the other hand rarely gets a glance and is only used when Aikdar needs something cleaned or he is horny, so to say she was bitter was an understatement.
One particularly stormy night, Kignna is quite bored and organizing some books when a random flyer floats down from the shelf, probably being used as a bookmark. This flyer was for a rather new attraction in the Void that had the attention of all the sadists: "Come one, come all to the Red Valley Circus! A place of fun, laughs, pain, and suffering! If you donate a worthy enough victim to the cause, you will get a sit down with the Ringmaster himself!"
Now, you know that infamous scene from the Grinch, right? The one where his devious, signature wide smile slowly forms across his face? Well, as Kignna is reading through the flyer, she grows one of her own... A worthy enough victim, eh? The Void was full of powerful entities!! If she donated a particularly powerful one, she'd be able to sit down with this tormentor.
And why did she want to have this sit down, you may be asking? Well, she wanted to talk to him about Shabhat Black! But, the problem was that she didn't have much say when it came to the void... She couldn't just... DONATE a powerful void entity without Aikdar knowing...
So, her evil grin faded and was replaced with one of sadness. Well, she could at least go to the show itself and see if this was even a fate worth giving Shabha... Who knows? Maybe he wasn't even that good.
So, she goes down to Red Valley, gets herself a seat up front, and watches the show. Tonight was audience's choice, which meant that with a small donation, an audience member could choose the torment of the victim, which tonight was an imprisoned Elder God. Kignna is rather rich, despite not getting much attention from Aikdar, and donates some gems in order to have full control of the show, to which the Ringmaster is shocked, but obliges. She spends the night shouting out horrific, beautifully gruesome requests and Josephi fulfills them even better than she requested! He added his own flair to them! Oh, god dammit, he was PERFECT! But... Shabha was with Aikdar... There was no way she could order to have her kidnapped... So, Kignna goes back home, locks herself in her room and fantasizes over what could have been.
That is... Until about 2 years later. See, Kignna had still not gotten the power or status she was promised, and she was getting pretty pissed and bitter against both Shabha and Aikdar. So, she approaches her "husband" one day and just blatantly asks him when she is getting her end of the deal, since she had fulfilled his wishes. Aikdar snaps that she'll never be getting it, calls her stupid and worthless, and hits her again. Well... This was the final straw for Kignna. That night, when Aikdar was busy, she tells Shabha they are going on a walk. Shabha, still seeing her as her mother, goes with her. They get to the Gates of the Void, and that's when Kignna suddenly says something along the lines of "Fuck you", then shoves her right off the edge of the Void!
Shabha falls to Earth after this, and her whole body gets reverted back to a baby again since the void and earth run on very different times. The millions of years she was alive in the Void only equaled about 1 year on earth, so she was now a wee babby. The exact place she had fallen was in the middle of the Amazon Rainforest, so she has created a massive crater in the earth from her fall, damaged countless trees, and was now just wailing louder than ever.
And that is when *he* comes out of nowhere; an absolutely massive green titan made of tree roots, moss, leaves, and other forms of vegetation, staring down at the little baby with his crimson eyes. This entity was known as Ojun Thazotl, a guardian of nature that was created by the Beyonder Life millions of years prior in order to protect all forms of nature.
He was ready to instinctively kill the entity before him for causing so much damage to the rainforest, being absolutely peeved at whatever did this, but he immediately stopped when he saw the dark colored elder goddess covered in bleeding, golden scars all over her body. So, instead of killing her, he picks her up and is ready to adopt her, when he turns around to see soldiers of the SCP Foundation right behind him, looking at the two of them with their guns raised, uneasy about this whole situation.
Before we continue, allow me to get into another explanation: The SCP Foundation. Also known as the Secure Contain Protect Foundation, SCP is dedicated to protecting humans from unearthly anomalies and protecting unearthly anomalies from humans. Now, if you Google the SCP Foundation, you might be under the impression that they are dickheads who just cage up things they don't understand. That might be true for their lore, but in this particular universe, the SCP Foundation actually caters every containment cell to the creature's very specific needs and desires, wanting them to be as content as possible while being locked up. This entire Foundation was founded by the supreme being you read about earlier, Clyde Thompson; the smartest and most logical entity in the entire Omniverse. He runs this place with his very kind and benevolent son, Dr. Lytmir Thompson(the god of electricity and technology) and together they keep this place running smoothly and with minimal problems.
Now, being contained here is not always pleasant, depending on your power level and level of hostility. Clyde may be nice, but he is not afraid to strap you down to a chair for all eternity or throwing you in an empty cell if it means protecting the Omniverse.
Now, I will explain the archenemy of the SCP Foundation: ETERNITY. ETERNITY is a massive foundation run by an evil scientist(who is also a cosmic entity of science) named Dr. Xavier Himdarr. Xavier's goals are to capture and study all inhuman creatures, make his own inhuman creatures, and basically take over the entire supernatural portion of the Omniverse for himself. He is incredibly powerful, cold, intelligent, and sadistic, and should be feared as such.
Now that those explanations are out of the way, let's continue! The SCP soldiers have their guns trained on Ojun and the baby he is holding, but that's when Lytmir himself steps forward, immediately recognizing the tree giant. He then orders the soldiers to lower their weapons, which they do, and Ojun very calmly explains everything that happened and how he was going to raise this child on his own.
Lytmir knows Ojun can be quite... emotionless when he wants to be, so he comes up with a proposal: Shared custody. Shabha would receive softness, love, and affection from Lytmir, and love, physical training, and tough affection from Ojun. He reluctantly agreed to this proposal and the deal was set.
Both of them were in charge of this small, adorable baby girl.
