>>5403757He was, one of the few humans who existed whom understood the perpetual biology. His father was one, his mother one. He- wasn't. At first. Using his own mental skill and will he was able to manipulate his own genetics to at least be perpetual in most sense. Or at least should. Till genetic disorders and errors that he had not accounted for attacked his body. He eventually was able to, with some help, understand what he should have done right, and how to correct his problem. Even when he could, there was the problem of fate.
But now things were different or so it seemed. The wind turned. It blew a different way.
"GAH!" The old man let out a scream of pain, his guise failing. His true self revealed. The pain, the sickness it was returning. But something older and stronger than sickness rose. The Ancient Will.
"WHO ARE YOU WHAT DID YA DO TO DA"
"RAVI YA DAFT FOOL IT'S ME."
"Cripes what why a"
"My body can no longer hold my disguise." the old man grunted standing his visage not his normally cheery self, nor the grump. He looked in intense pain he looked angry
"Rage. Rage against the dying of the light." He said in a dour tone walking outside.
"Ol- Ma- You really are Ratta-"
"Just Call me Martin for now." He said clapping in a style of a hakka then whistling something otherworldly. And The Leviathan rose from waves.
"IT JUST LIVES THERE NOW?!" Ravi shouted in fright and anger and The old man gently just made a tutting gesture.
"IS IT TIME TO FIGHT AT LAST?!" The leviathan bellowed so loud the trees shook and waves formed
"Not today! No! I need you to insure I live so that we may fight! Go and gather the crone you are the only one fast enough to get her and come back in time."
"BUT WE SHALL FIGHT."
"YA YOU OVERGROWN SPACE EEL. GO!" The old man wailed in such a powerful tone that the leviathan shuddered then did as asked.
"Ravi. You will be my witness. Call your son on the comm tell him to hurry. I may have just enough energy for one magic trick. This- this will make sure the kid finds us." The old man smirked and then clapped and stomped.
"You know, the Hakka. " He said with a shout to the ancient tone causing Ravi to look puzzled
"It Actually Has Purpose" He said in a voice like a choir.
"Rise! Victoriana!" The hakka complete and the gound did shake
"It is a Magic!"
"It is the souls own music fire!"
"No xeno has this!" He clapped
"It's the core of another."
"The Enuncia"
He said now hovering above the ground and Ravi stood his ground. As all his brave stock would, from then and forever. Brave men came of his blood and his adoptive blood. Those who would stand.
