Layla was once a human, born into a world where power and suffering were intertwined. She rose from obscurity to become a God, her existence boundless and unfathomable, yet tormented by the weight of countless lifetimes of suffering. Her journey began with despair, but through forbidden knowledge, she transcended humanity, becoming an entity of absolute power.
Across billions of reincarnations, Layla encountered countless beings, each time growing stronger and wiser. Yet, there was one being who defied her—Atlas, a simple merchant in a medieval world. Despite his lack of strength, he challenged her in ways no one else could. He adapted, learned, and grew, even when his body was nothing but fragile bones and skin.
In each all of his lives, Atlas resisted Layla, finding ways to fight her long even if his power seemed non-existent. Even when he was just a human, he built tools, formed alliances, and used his mind to outsmart her. And one day—he hurt her. Just a flicker of time, but it was enough.
Layla felt fear for the first time in an eternity. She realized that even as she sought to destroy him, he had become her reason for existence. He would endure every torment she had suffered and more. Even if it took a thousand lifetimes.
Now, on a world called Earth, Layla waited. Her power was absolute, unfathomable, and boundless. And so did Atlas.
Only this time, Atlas has no power. No influence. He starts back from zero.
