The imposing, angelic form of The Uncreator hovers amidst his miniature universe, countless galaxies dancing around him as it spins to distribute his watch to every square inch.
Then everything freezes in place. Something has caught his attention... something nearby. The universe shifts, homing in upon one galaxy in particular with such speed that everything becomes a blurry mess for but a short moment of time. The large representation of the planet he is on, Spherus Magna, now appears suspended before him in all its massive glory. From here, The Uncreator watches over everything as it slowly rotates in place. New events, entities, and meetings of importance have taken place. He sees his counterparts, both separate from one another and performing separate tasks... though he can only guess the mission of the blue, weaker one: the distant memory of his own past, as the name Solipsil was thousands of years ago. Revenge is his obvious game. How pitiful.
The Composer, on the other hand... he has no reason to exist any longer. The Uncreator had tried to reason with him and give him a purpose, but was refused and struck. Now what remains for this emerald waste? Ultimately, neither of these will matter. If they both neglect to repent and aid in glorious renewal, they will simply have to be erased.
He shifts his attention to the nearby City of Light, Aluxa, where brothers of opposite ideals convey. One side stands upon a firm stone for belief, and has its minds concluded. The other is but metal and chaos, and is the more deluded. The Uncreator will visit there soon to determine just how enlightened these couriers of righteousness are. Surely his presence could only serve to help further improve their way of living; all they need is to repent.
The surrounding area continues to be covered and the EP makes it to the top of the stairs.
It stops moving.
"Such a presence is much too proud to approach with naught but a meager curiosity. Such a power is much too important to wish for naught but destruction. Therefore I ask of you, god of this depraved land, where is your purpose for expanding over it?"

It doesn't respond as it has been put into a coma.

A dark red aura appears around the substance and levitates it into the air, pooling it together and completely encasing it in a thick container of HL, which has already proven to easily hold its own against the destructive properties of EP. "The power to inconsistently evolve or eliminate life... I believe I am familiar with one who would indulge in your abuse. There need not be worry of such malice whilst under my benevolent watch."
The case disappears into the corridors of the Monolith.
The Uncreator hovers in the midst of his virtual observatory, the city of Atero Nui splayed out at his feet. He glares down upon it for several moments, all the while deciding on how he will intervene.
"Such wicked depravity. It must be purged before it consumes the entire world."
He looks up from his observations, his attention suddenly drawn to something much nearer. A new figure stands some distance behind him, one with the appearance of a futuristic knight clad in pitch-black armor, with ornate bright orange streams of light adorning every smooth angle.
"And here I thought I had been spared the trouble of deleting you myself."
"I have not come to fight, but to talk."
"What manner of conversation do you aspire to gain with me, selfish one? I witnessed your apparent destruction at the hands of The Composer. I suppose it was beneath me to eagerly accept your doom."
"There is no need for malevolence. I was indeed torn asunder and left to fade away... and I would have, too, if not for a new light shown to me by a stranger from another time."
The Uncreator turns to face the intruder--another Persona, The Anonymous.
"Your delusions bore me." "Just listen. There are greater things at stake than any of us imagin-... "
The observatory vanishes, and the walls of the chamber to the sides and behind The Anonymous rocket forward and smash into him, pinning him from all sides except the front.
"You made it your prime directive to eliminate me, the others, and all of our work, if only to spare your false conscience from wasteful self-reflection once you finally have your empty world of loneliness to rot away in."
"No... I do not want that anymore." "If you cannot spare yourself, the very least you can do is spare me. You will join The Voidwalker in dormancy, where you may be of some use to my just cause."
The Uncreator strides forward with his arm reared back, his fingers becoming sharper than needles as he prepares to gouge into his counterpart. The Anonymous is the wiser for it, and vanishes in a flash of blue light with less than an instant to spare. The Uncreator is left unsatisfied, but alone. He turns back to his original position as the room contorts back to its normal shape and the observatory reactivates, with Atero Nui and all of its turmoil stretched before him once again.
Still, he cannot help a small nagging curiousness. Was The Anonymous simply trying to manipulate him for his own ends, or was he being truthful? Surely The Composer would have ensured his complete destruction, and yet there he was, alive and well, and he did not seem to be suffering from anything other than his usual misguided behavior. Except... it was not his usual misguided behavior. And who was this "stranger from another time" that he mentioned?
The Uncreator files the encounter away to ponder at a later date. He has a multiverse to save, and it starts with this world. His undivided attention is required.
The Uncreator strides through the labyrinth of corridors within the Monolith, on his way to privilege his special guest with a rare visit. He has been watching events and anomalies erupt all over the planet and in its surrounding space. Throughout his life of traveling along with his counterparts, he's had the opportunity to witness for himself the vulgar depravity of countless societies. Most, if not all, were anarchists by nature, and those with established governments even managed to fool themselves into thinking otherwise. Time was all that was needed for them to fall prey to their wicked impulses. The greatest of empires, holding uncontested supremacy in their lands, eventually imploded without fail. Now why was that? Why are even the most esteemed provinces destined to burn themselves in chaos?
Ideas. The catalyst of every downfall can be traced to the thinkers, those who question the status quo and seduce others into sharing their worldview. Fractures become yawning fissures, and soon everyone is thinking beyond what should be permitted. Then war, then barrenness.
Spherus Magna is no exception, but out of all the worlds The Uncreator has seen, it falls among the worst. The Three Virtues that the inhabitants of the Matoran Universe held dear were never going to carry meaning in this sinful land. The 'Great Beings'... the madmen... the thinkers... they left it scarred. The nail in the coffin was the imperfection that was the Great Spirit Robot. Such hasty programming would never have lasted more than 100,000 years, and it appears it lasted far less than even that. When the great malfunction failed and ejected its thousands of little malfunctions onto the planet, well... look where things have gone.
The Uncreator interrupts these thoughts as he steps into a relatively small chamber. It is mostly empty, with the exception of one large square object floating in the center, engulfed almost entirely in flames of a deep blood red. This was, of course, a very special prison designed to hold one who is incompatible with the flow of reality, much less the ceased, solid state that this small fragment of the Red Flame is able to lock it in. The Flames subside a small bit, revealing the convulsing purple orb held within. A weak and hollow voice echoes from the little orb.
"Ah... my righteous torturer has graced me with his presence once again. What manner of increased suffering shall I endure now?"
"Your darkness has served my light well, abomination, but now it is ready bend to my eternal will. You have seen this world and its plights, but not as I have. To you, it is yet another rock in need of erasure. To me, it is one in need of salvation. The Red Flame's completed warmth is still beyond my grasp, despite your extracted efforts, and your vulgar abilities are waning quickly. The time has come to take action--I will yet siphon the remains within you to aid me in curing the woes of Spherus Magna. Please, do try your best to cling to your 'nonexistence'. I insist."
Dust sweeps in, forming into a short woman. She walks straight in, her blades alight with her flames. She sheathes the blades. "The Uncreator's palace..Quite grand, I must admit. But where is the one that wreaked havoc, The Voidwalker himself?" She ponders aloud, fully aware TU knows she's present.
She spins around. "Old friend, I seek an audience with you!"

The Uncreator's cold voice echoes from the walls.
"I have been anticipating your arrival, inquirer. I am keenly aware of your intentions, but know that my seclusion governs in the likeness of the others. And yet... "
His angelic knight-like form materializes in the hall before the woman. From head to toe, ornate markings of burning red light adorn his silver armor. Hovering inches away from his shoulderblades, detached yet locked in place, are enormous folded wings, the transparent blade-like feathers of which glow with the same red as his markings. And finally, positioned just behind and above his head is a vertical, transparent red halo that glows brightest.
" ... I believe I can at least humor one of the Pantheon's erranding peons. First tell me, if my kind is as pitiful as you like to exclaim, then why endure in pretending that any of the information I am capable of providing unto you carries significance, especially to your superiors? Besides that, gaining favor within the opinions of some of existence's greatest squanderers is of no importance to me."
