ALL MY WIVES ARE BEAUTIFUL ELVES

Chapter 10: Welcome to limbo

Alex followed the goddess lady, Nebula through twists and turns around the glass house. sometimes Alex questioned internally if they hadn't already passed a particular place before. But seeing the confidence in Nebula's steps as the stairs came to her feet and she moved about with ease, Alex relaxed and decide to follow her.

He walked with caution although on the outside he masked his uncertainty with a veil of confidence as he didn't want Pete to see through him.

"Although I can't deny her arrival is what has led up to all of this. Still, it doesn't change the fact that she's got a sharp tongue," Alex thought as a stole quick glances on Pete.

Despite the former's earlier confession to being a man, Alex couldn't put a way the thought of wrapping Pete up and giving her a good thrashing from behind all while she moaned to his vicious staff.

Then again, that would mean he was basically doing the do with another man when he thought about it on a deep level and that wasn't just how he rolled.

"Nah, I'll pass" Alex thought as he shoved the thought to the back of his mind.

Eventually, Nebula got to a place where there was a stand still. They found themselves at a large hollow space with a deep depression. The place essentially looked like a colosseum only that it had a pool wide depression that made it look like an empty water bed.

"We are here," Nebula said as they stood still.

"What is this feeling?!!" Alex asked instantly as they stood. He felt his body tremble as the pressure around the place was magnitudes above anything he had felt. It was as though a force beckoned on him to kneel. He could feel something tugging on his very essence almost like his very concept was about to be pulled out.

"It's fine. It's the feeling everyone gets when they are close to their death. You have just never had enough chance to actually tell it's death. Me on the other hand, I feel this every time," Pete said in a soft undertone.

"Why are we standing here again? what are we even doing here?!!" Alex fired off a bunch of questions which were left unanswered. Rather, Nebula wave her hand again and a creaking sound was heard which was followed by a gear mechanism sound.

Next thing that happened was the release of white smoke all around, covering the view of everyone. When the smoke finally cleared, there they were in the middle of somewhere new. nove(l)bi(n.)com

"What the ...hell?" Alex stuttered...

"You wanted to know where we are right? Well my friend, this is limbo," Pete said with a sense of familiarity and a ting of excitement in his voice.

"Now what?!!" Alex asked.

"Now we will begin," Nebula said in a soft monotonic way, yet, her voice echoed.

In the mist-covered realm of Limbo, where time and space intertwine, Alex found himself on the precipice of a remarkable journey. What did he not know was that his life was about to take a surreal turn, transcending the limits of his mortal existence.

His destiny was entwined with two otherworldly beings, Nebula the goddess lady and Pete, an ancient guide, standing by to aid him in his transmigration.

Nebula, a radiant deity adorned in flowing robes, stood tall before Alex. Her eyes, shimmering like distant stars, held an otherworldly wisdom that beckoned him closer. She reached out a slender, ethereal hand, guiding him toward a portal that glowed with an otherworldly hue.

"Alex, are you sure this is what you want? Believe me when I say, death might be a curse, a tragedy, even a misfortune, but being alive and living a nightmare makes death an even lesser penalty," Nebula took a serious tone.

"Your journey might not be a smooth one. Nothing is guaranteed. You might end up being stuck in limbo forever or even worse, animate in a world where your conscience provokes irrevocable changes. Again, are you sure this is what you want?" Nebula spoke, her voice echoing through the chambers of his mind.

"You already know my answer. Living was a nightmare for me before so it isn't something new. But death perhaps is a debt too hefty to pay," Alex replied.

"Very well then, prepare yourself to embark on a journey that will transcend your mortal existence," Nebula said with a still voice.

Alex hesitated for a moment, a mix of trepidation and excitement coursing through his veins. This was his chance, a second wind, one final life line, the opportunity to uncover the truths he sought and to delve into the unknown.

With a resolute nod, he stepped forward, his heart pounding in anticipation.

Nebula waved her hand once more and a book materials from thin air. The book had weird symbols and writings on it but it didn't seem to matter too much for Nebula.

"The book of the universe," Pete murmured, standing behind and watching everything. Her turn too would come but for now, Alex was to go first. Nebula murmured a bunch of words before saying the final clear ones.

"....Open to me!!" Nebula stayed and just then, a bright portal opened with sparks of light and a great resolution of energy emanating from it. Nebula held Alex's hand and they walked towards the portal which seemed to have distorted the flow of mist around the vicinity.

As Alex crossed the threshold of the portal, a rush of celestial energy enveloped him, transporting him to a realm unlike anything he had ever seen. Colors he had never imagined danced before his eyes, and the air hummed with a vibrant energy.

He was suspended in a weightless state, the confines of his physical body no longer hindering him. Alex was in state of abstract existence, all by himself.

Beside him, Pete materialized, his form an enigmatic blend of ancient wisdom and profound serenity. Pete's presence brought a sense of calmness to Alex, grounding him amidst the overwhelming beauty of the new realm.

"Steady, this is the most difficult part," Nebula said to Alex with a warm smile.

"I will be your guide through this journey. We are now in the realm of Infinix, a nexus of existence linking multiple dimensions, worlds and civilizations. . It is here that your transmigration will begin,"

Alex glanced around, taking in the vast expanse of Infinix's landscapes. Towering mountains stretched toward the heavens, their peaks adorned with glistening crystals that emitted a soft, ethereal glow.

A river of energy flowed through the landscape, pulsating with life and knowledge. Alex's feet were buried in a sentient fluid that seemed to crawl up to his knees, accessing his form before falling back to flow as normal liquids would behave.

Nebula extended a hand to Alex, inviting him to join him on a path that wound its way through the realm.

"Our first destination will be the Temple of memories," Nebula explained.

"It is a sacred sanctuary that houses the accumulated wisdom of countless civilizations, experiences of different world, the changes that have occurred and in there, you will discover will find answers to your most profound questions,"

Together, Alex and Pete embarked on their journey toward the Temple of memories.. Along the way, they encountered celestial beings, crystals of energy with wings soaring in the air. The landscape was like a solid water. Each footstep made would send rippled inwardly, an anomaly, Alex noticed.

But then again, nothing actually made sense in this place to begin with. The celestial beings each radiating a different aspect of the cosmic balance. Some were ethereal wisps of light, while others took the form of majestic creatures ranging from houses as tall as a building with numerous colour patches.

Alex marveled at the diversity and harmony of the realm, feeling a sense of unity that surpassed anything he had experienced before. All the while, the book of the universe Nebula had summoned floated along with them on the walk. The place seemed far from their initial position but it didn't take too long to get there.

As they arrived at the Temple of memories, Alex was struck by its grandeur. The structure reached up to the heavens, its intricate carvings depicting the history of forgotten civilizations and their lost knowledge. Golden doors, adorned with symbols of long-forgotten languages, beckoned him to step inside.

He was astounded by the structure in front of him which resembled a world of its own. He looked up and could barely see the end of the door in front of him. The very next question on his mind would have been..."How the fuck are we gonna open this thing??!"

But Nebula perhaps had it all under control. Once again, a wave of her hand did the magic and the door opened wide. But inside, something awaited Alex. Something he wasn't ready for.

"I just hope you are ready as you say," Nebula thought in her mind as she gazed upon the foolishness of a man that she saw in Alex.
