The broken god lamented over his foolishness in his pit of darkness. In a moment of desperation, he had made a request to the Supreme creation god/goddess Vakma. He had asked for his grace to be taken away in his desire for love and had been granted a 3-day reprieve. He searched all over for a woman he would have been proud to call wife and he found 'her'. In a universe so unremarkable she was a beauty that was truly uncommon anywhere else. He watched her and was bewitched by her wit and charm and her beauty made him, the god of love who had been above base emotions feel greed like any mortal man. His greed was something he had never felt before and due to his freedom from his grace he was a mortal in heart and mind if not in body and thus he lost himself to obsession and jealousy. When his affections were not returned, he became a monster. When his 3-day freedom was finally over and his emotional walls were finally sealed up once more it was too late, his heart was already broken. Thus his divine duty became corrupted. That is why even then in the abyss where he knelt broken and fully aware of all the pain he had caused in the years since he only felt the injustice for himself for all he had been denied and what eons of carrying his burden had made of him when he finally got the chance to find love
"BRING THE ACCUSED BEFORE ME!!!!!" Vakma declared, his voice a total display of oppressive force, a blend of a man's bellow and a woman's shriek of rage.
Light blew down from the heavens and fell onto the ground to reveal a fallen giant. Upendo lay broken and shackled before all who saw. Those who had their grievances, those who were disgusted by a god they had worshiped faithfully, those who wanted only justice, all eyes looked on him in disdain and disgust. His time had come and all that was left for him was the Final fate given to a wayward soul.
"I STRIP YOU OF THE NAME YOU CORRUPTED WHEN IT WAS SUPPOSED TO HOLD THE HIGHEST IDEAL." Vakma declared in a voice fully maternal rage of a mother defending her brood. " I STRIP YOU OF THE STATUS OF GOD YOU USED TO ABUSE THOSE WE ARE MEANT TO LOVE." Vakma also declared in a voice of fatherly retribution.
" I STRIP YOU OF PEACE AND I BANISH YOU TO THE FINAL FATE AS ALL OF THE MOST IRREDEEMABLE INDIVIDUALS ACROSS ALL CREATIONS HISTORY. BEGONE!!!"
Upendo roared all his hatred and grievance there in that one bellow, lacking any and all grace he had previously had. The picture of a pathetic mortal as his body was burnt and his soul was sent to the final fate to experience suffering in mortal worlds and be reborn to suffer it once more forevermore and retain that memory but possess no ability to break his own curse.
Now it was left to Celeste and Nan to decide…. Vakma offered them a choice. To return to a world where what their experiences never happened and they lived their destinies unhindered by Upendo or to move on to a paradise where they could find a different happiness. Their choices were never learned by those who saw all that transpired but it is nice to hope that whichever choice they made, found them peace.
