[Unknown universe. Unknown time.]
Amongst themselves, they watch and listen to the journey of Aster.
They are the Executioners, the unfeeling creations of the gods tasked to destroy worlds.
They do not ask why, and even if they did, they won't get answers.
They are really not that different from us, with the only exception that they can destroy us. Not specifically just us, because "us" is just part of their daily routine.
We now focus on their conversations.
Unfeeling as they may be, at this moment they are sharing an emotion.
They are rallying behind Aster, for he is their champion.
If Aster passes this test, this will be the first time an Executioner will become more than what their lives have dictated for them.
Destroy a planet.
Destroy another one.
Destroy another after that.
There has got to be more to their lives than this, especially when one is immortal.
Upon seeing Aster finally reach the Milky Way, they cheer.
Their cheer, however, is unheard.
They cannot reach him, they cannot communicate with him. Even with their combined powers, he is too far away in time and space.
All they can do is watch.
Watch and behold, and wait.
Because you see, our destruction is their fulfillment.
