Ascension

When a cerevate is born, she creates a tiny place within herself. You know the place, don't you? Your scientists call it an anti-singularity, a white hole, or some less simplified, more appropriate phrase that describes this little piece of infinity within each of us so gifted. Our scientists fare no better and neither do those of the renlai. Still, it suffices as an answer to what it is...

Give them some time, and they can come up with some extremely good ideas as to how. Of course, they will no doubt fail on many specifics, but that is understandable. No awakened cerevate is particularly keen on getting vivisected, and good luck trying. Who, when, and where are already answered, as a given.

That leaves 'why'. Upon awakening, a cerevate becomes aware of her 'secret' place, and can make use of it. A newborn cerevate is a difficult opponent. An awakened one would be called a god by any but the most advanced of civilizations. Even then, the difference is only because they can perceive limits to your power - they still treat us with almost excessive respect. Or, perhaps the respect derives from a more thorough understanding of possible consequences.

Before Lucifer left us, she told me a secret, to pass on to whomever may come to succeed her, should she fail.

She failed, and I now stand before you.

That secret place within us... Our scientists were wrong. Someone can find the center - someone must. Lucifer did. How, I have no idea - perhaps using it as a source for power is a mistake, though I witnessed many of her feats.

According to her, the 'place' is a door.

God waits on the other side.
