Lust...Lost...Last Survivor.

"Ten thousand suns have risen and fallen since I last walked among the rivers of creation..."

"Who? What? Who's there? Who's talking? I can't see a thing here. Is this a dream?"

"Beneath the eternal moon, I watched your kind crawl from the primordial seas, reaching for heaven with such innocent hearts..."

"Okay, this is definitely not my regular sleep paralysis episode. Look, I had spicy ramen before bed, so this is probably just indigestion talking..."

"Once, your ancestors knelt in temples of jade and sang prayers into the dawn. Now you craft temples of steel and glass, reaching higher but seeing less..."

"Listen, I've got a 9-to-5 tomorrow, and my therapist says I need at least seven hours of sleep—"

"For ten thousand years, I have watched your kind squander the sacred breath I gifted you. Each era birthing new ways to corrupt the heavenly mandate..."

"Look, if this is about climate change, we're actually making progress with renewables—"

"Progress? Your 'progress' has turned the sacred waters to poison, the blessed air to toxin."

"We're trying, okay? There are electric cars now and everything!"

"I remember when your kind bowed before blooming plum blossoms, seeing infinity in a single petal. Now you barely lift your eyes from glowing rectangles, chasing illusions like moths to flame."

"Hey, my phone has a really good nature photography app—"

Weeping, soft as rain over forgotten mountains.

"Who's crying? Are... are you crying?"

"Perhaps if I had not gifted you the divine spark... had left you in blessed ignorance beneath the eternal heavens..."

"Listen... uh, whoever—or whatever—you are, we're not all bad! Have you seen our cat videos? They're adorable!"

"The mandate of heaven lies shattered. The celestial courts stand empty. Even the phoenix refuses to rise again..."

"Huh? Why are you talking like a second-rate WebNovel villain?"

"But perhaps... perhaps there is one final act of mercy left within my immortal heart..."

"I don't like where this is going. Please stop."

"You, child of dust and dreams, shall be my heavenly blade of mercy."

"Hard pass. Like, the hardest pass ever. Nope. I am perfectly happy with my existential dread and unfulfilled life goals, thank you."

"Take back the divine spark. Return all to the primordial void. Let every soul return to the sacred emptiness from which they came."

"No, no, no! I can't even keep my houseplants alive! How do you expect me to handle... this?"

"The power flows through your mortal vessel even now. Feel it resonating with the song of oblivion..."

"I can barely manage my student loans! I am not equipped for cosmic annihilation!"

"Let them sleep beneath the eternal stars..."

"Can't you ask someone more qualified? Like, I don't know, Musk or Bezos? They'd love this kind of thing!"

"Let them dream in the embrace of nothingness..."

"But I haven't finished Elden Ring yet!"

"LET ALL OF CREATION RETURN TO STARDUST!"

"LET EVERY CONSCIOUSNESS FADE TO BLESSED NOTHING!"

"LET THE COSMIC DANCE END IN PERFECT SILENCE!"

"SO I HAVE PROCLAIMED, SO IT SHALL BE!"

"NOOOOO!"
