A new daily special arrived as I sat in my office. It had been a few hours after my little escapade on Mars. One thousand ships were sent out into the galaxy to make contact and spread my games to multiple worlds. Each held a single one of my clones that would be running out of steam after 5 days, but this was fine because most would reach their destinations within a day whilst the rest were mainly sent out to explore for random alien species that could be brought into the fold.
Drinking a standard coffee, two sugars and a quarter cup of milk with boiled water, I looked over my options. A minute passed in such a manner as the elevator to my office dinged, my spatial sense from my eyes allowing me to see it was Tony before he even exited the elevator.
Slurping my coffee somewhat I hummed a little whilst purchasing the knowledge of magic and the ruling experience. The knowledge was held back for the moment, within my inventory, as I turned to face my guest.
He was standing there with a mild frown on his face as two Hk-14 droids escorted him. Pepper Potts was standing behind him at an angle, her entire emotional spectrum igniting into a fluster of surprise, shock, intimidation, adoration, attraction, repulsion and mystification. My godly form was apparently beginning to take effect much more than usual.
{The Quirk 'Apex' has been ensuring your transition to 'Godhood' has been smooth. As of an hour ago the quirk has completed its task and has begun to adapt every part of your body to perfectly function within Earth's and Mars's atmosphere.}
'Thanks system'
Silence consumed my mind as Tony coughed, my cup touching my lips as I swallowed the last of the delicate drink. Another change, Coffee was smooth for me now, like hot chocolate.
"Freya... Good to see you... See you've been busy conquering countries as of late, must be nice to be queen!" His smart ass approach to conversation was unique but nothing I hadn't seen when meeting with him in the past.
"It is wonderful to be queen. Though, Australia is still a Democracy, of course." He grinned slyly, his expression barely concealing a knowing smirk that showed he was under no illusion that I had given up control.
Pepper was looking between us with concern and just the tinniest bit of exhaustion. She was adapting to being Tony's right hand woman perfectly, if my assumption of position was correct.
"Anyway, scoundrel, why have you come here to visit me?" Placing my coffee cup down I leaned onto my right hand whilst the chair below me morphed into a lavish couch that allowed me to stretch my limbs somewhat. "I saw a vision within Star Wars The Old Republic! I- i wish to know what it was pertaining to." He blurted it out just as I got comfy.
'System?'
{The Force is now real... Your game can channel visions of this reality also, if the person is force sensitive in either reality.}
'Fucksakes...'
"Hmmm, you had a force vision then." I tried to make my voice as steady as possible, conveying a sense of knowing all when in fact I desperately wished to know what he had seen about himself.
"F-force vision?" He turned to Pepper, watching her shake her head in confusion as she jotted down notes on a blank piece of paper. "Could you explain it to me?" Blinking slowly, my observations of his emotional state showed little to no deception and an extreme urge, or wish, to know what I was speaking on... It seemed as if I would be taking on a temporary student.
"Force visions are essentially projections of potential futures based upon current circumstances. Sometimes they are deadly accurate and foretell a very likely outcome, but they are few and far between. From my experience, force visions are not to be relied upon heavily, but instead heeded in warning."
Frowning he looked close to speaking up once more but I cut him off.
"For instance... My own visions revealed to me that a great deal of harm would befall someone who would potentially be dear to me in the near future should I not help or intervene. Needless to say, I intervened."
Pepper spoke up this time. "Did she get hurt in any way or...?" The words hang on the air until I smiled towards her. "I saved her. She was close to being eaten by demons. As a goddess they were most easy to explode when I found them." The last part may have come out wistfully as I was missing combat somewhat, the rush that came when you were in danger and fighting for your life.
Tony sighed in relief, his bearing smoothing out a bit as his breath eased. I hadn't noticed before, but he was rather uptight upon walking into my office.
"I am guessing that my example provided some solace or explanation of what can be down about visions?" He nodded, a smile no longer gracing his lips as his irises were darting side to side in thought.
"Tony..." He looked up at me blinking.
"Whatever you saw is changeable, however... do not attempt to completely stop whatever happened. Try your best to be ready. Never give power to another over your fate unless you trust them with your life."
Pepper nodded deeply and smiled awkwardly at her new boss, the twinges of love stroking the exterior of her emotional aura. The man who was the source of her affections was looking rather frustrated however.
"What do you mean I can't try to stop it!?" His tone was rude, but his emotions betrayed the fear, sadness and desperation he held about this vision.
"Well. Let me tell you the story from a Galaxy far, far away and of the Chosen One of this Galaxy..." His eyes narrowed onto my form as I slowly began speaking, Pepper listening with rapt attention.
"On a planet known as Tattooine there was a young boy named Anakin Skywalker. This young man would come to be known as 'The Chosen One'. He did not yet know this however and simply worked with his mother as a slave to a moderately wealthy Toydarian, a flying alien species." Tony listened to my every word as if there was some deep meaning I was trying to hide from him. His secretary, Pepper, simply listened in with intrigue.
"Then, one day, two Jedi Knights from the Galactic Republic landed on said planet... Their business their own. One was a master, the other, a Padawan. The master after deliberating with a queen who he had taken upon himself to protect decided that they needed to get parts for their craft after having it damaged in battle... They searched high and low and eventually came upon the owner of this 'Chosen One'. He had the parts they needed and the master had taken interest in the boy from small interactions he had through the force."
Tony was widening his eyes as he realised that this was set in the SWTOR Galaxy. Pepper was simply going along with it, trying to figure out the point behind the story.
"Soon a bargain was struck. They would get the money needed for the parts through a race, in which, the master placed the young boy Anakin, as the driver for the race. The ship was bet and the race had begun."
"Low and behold that boy won the race and came to be freed by the Jedi. His freedom was discussed with his mother and the Jedi master came to know that he was born without a father, the force itself creating a child to bear its power and purpose." Pepper gasped at that and lightly held a cross around her neck.
"Much like Jesus..." She spoke reverently.
"Yes." I nodded to her. "Skipping some time and needless exposition of storyline... Anakin is accepted by the Jedi Order as a Padawan despite his age and given over to Qui Gon Jin, the master who had originally recognised his potential, his former Padawan graduating so to speak."
"The master of Obi Wan and Anakin, Qui Gon, died later facing a Sith right in front of Obi Wan, who then proceeded to cut down said Sith and taking over the training and teaching of Anakin."
Tony was frowning even deeper now, his emotions swirling in confusion and anger. He wanted to know what I was trying to convey and had yet to hear anything helpful.
"That same boy, Anakin... Became the strongest of the Jedi. The rest believed he would bring 'balance' to the force. They were correct, just not in the way they intended..." Pepper widened her eyes expectantly.
"You see, the Jedi had hundreds if not thousands of members through the galaxy. The Light had prevailed for countless centuries and had begun to stagnate. Good was being usurped by corruption and political clout. Equity, peace and goodness were usurped by bureaucratic laws and politics. The Sith though? One or two member here and there, enforced by a strict rule that ensured that their power was balanced."
"A Sith, sat at the heart of the Republic. The Chancellor himself. He had been plotting the downfall of the Jedi for decades as Anakin was trained. Civil War sprung out, half the galaxy turned on the core of the Republic and renamed itself the Separatist Alliance. Both sides were controlled by Sith..."
They both stared at me in expectation, I was getting to the point, they could feel it.
"This lead to a war so bloody and violent that the Jedi themselves, her were once peace keepers and diplomats, became generals and cogs within the machine that was the Clone War."
"Finally... After many years of battle and the christening of Anakin Skywalker in the heat of battle and blood of his enemies, the connection he shared with the Chancellor would be tugged upon to drive him towards betraying the very people who had taught him."
Pepper started to tear up slightly as she rubbed her eyes.
"You see, they were best of friends. The Chancellor had never hurt Anakin or betrayed him like he thought many of his Jedi companions had. Anakin believed that many of the Jedi hated him or at the very least, despised him. He was sick of the Chosen One moniker and found that many of the Jedi treated him coldly... Thus he held onto that connection with an iron fist, to his downfall."
"He requested a seat as a council member of the Jedi order, at the behest of the Chancellor. He was denied, his service not being enough and his experience too short, as the other council members had agreed upon. This naturally lead him to the conclusion that they certainly despised him and were merely using him as a tool."
"B-but they trained him and freed him from slavery!" Pepper screamed out as some tears slid from her eyes.
"No, Qui Gon did... Obi Wan did... The Jedi in fact rejected him at first until Qui Gon put his foot down and forced them to take him. Anyway, I am getting close to the part in which Tony will like hearing..." He nodded.
"Using this new found, for a lack of better word, hatred, the Chancellor began to slowly direct Anakin to battlefields and decisions that were in his own favour. Then, he began his most insidious plot, giving Anakin dreams and forcing visions upon him of the future."
Tony dropped back onto a chair and listened very closely.
"These visions showed his wife, which was illegal for the Jedi to have by the way, dying in child birth." Pepper was wide-eyed and listening on in horror.
"He made it his mission to stop that from happening. Discussions were had with council members, personally, without much information given. No answers were forth coming and the Jedi, he knew, would find out about his wife and do worse to him and her should they be found out."
"Using this newfound passion of Anakin, the Chancellor invited him to sit with him at an Opera... Where he then told Anakin of the stories of his master, Darth Plagueis. Who was said to have brought back the dead and healed that which could not be normally regenerated."
"Within the span of a few months, Anakin struggled within himself and even went and told a council member, Mace Windu, that the Chancellor could have been sith. He did the right thing... Until he didn't."
"He ended up saving the Chancellor, a sith known as Sidious, and taking up the mantle of apprentice under him. From there he cleansed the entire Jedi temple and purged every single one he could find. He killed Padawans, Jedi masters, Jedi Knights and younglings. Then in his warped state he went to Mustafar, killing the separatist leaders before facing off against his own wife and master, Obi Wan."
"No... No... Don't tell me..." Tony's voice was ragged and raw as he imagined his own vision in which he saw Pepper crying upon his shoulder, weeping for his death as other knelt around him.
"In anger, Anakin flew into a rage... He saw his loving wife standing on the side of his master. His rage clouded his judgement and he accused her of betraying him for Obi Wan. She tried to calm him down, but, he was too deeply committed to the dark side at this stage... He had killed children for her, and she had betrayed him."
Pepper was crying fully now, her chest heaving as she listened on, forgetting to write this down.
"The force was used upon her and he choked her to unconsciousness telekinetically. Said usage of the force wounded her in several ways, some that would later come to kill her in child birth, dispensing the names of her children just before she would pass away... Exactly in the way that he witnessed her die within his visions."
"And that, is all you need know from this tale."
Tony sagged in on himself and dreaded his choices, his options. His own death and yet if he resisted it too much it could just go up and cause it. The mind and fate were an equally tricky thing and he was being introduced to it with a mallet to the hand.
"W-what am I to do about my situation then?"
I sighed and sat up.
"Face it like a man and try to change elements of it."
He frowned and looked upwards at me.
"Your suit... Change it? Make sure you never design a suit like it, or at the very least, make it better if possible. Your allies around you... Who was there? Could you add anyone that would make the outcome potentially better? The enemy you were facing, perhaps you can avoid him, perhaps you can't... But there are options."
"It didn't work for Anakin."
I scoffed at him.
"Anakin was a young man and a fool. He was in a position where he could trust no one and manipulated by a man who was double his age and experience in matters of the mind and force. His own allies made trusting them near impossible and the only one he could trust through all of this was off on a distant world fighting an enemy that they had no business fighting, as Jedi."
"When you put it that way..."
"Yes, you have every chance he did not. Now, take that wisdom, and use it. But as i said, do not try to force an outcome..."
He stood up and looked out the window, the Australian heat causing small rippled in the distance as the breeze stirred through nearby trees.
"Thank you for the guidance Freya."
"Any time Tony... Now, Pepper, a bathroom is around the corner, why don't you two go freshen up before going?" They did as I said and disappeared around the corner, my senses cutting off as I didn't know if they were in a relationship or not.
'Fuck that was intense... Now! Get that knowledge in here... Purchase Overhaul, Empire Building thingy, Exposure Space-time thing, Dimensional walkway and the Marriage Contract thing.'
{Done}
