Noble Ascendent Man

---

In the year 17,000 A.D., 15,000 years after the Great Convergence, Earth's natural order remained unchanged, but its inhabitants faced numerous threats to their existence. Gamma-ray bursts, solar flares, volcanic eruptions, climate change and nuclear war had become recurring dangers. Civilizations rose and fell, adapting to these challenges by building sprawling communities and homes in the sky and on water.

- The Skomes

The ASC (Advanced Souls Council), Earth's governing body, created Skomes, majestic sky dwellings reserved for individuals who had achieved their highest chakra, transforming their DNA and unlocking higher consciousness levels and supernatural abilities. These chosen few were rewarded for their charitable endeavors and the positive energy they emitted.

Appointed "Guardian of the Sky," Noble's duty was to safeguard Earth and the mid-heaven Skomes from crime. ASC leaders Annubis, Bastet, and Sobek envisioned Noble as a potential god, humanity's first. Noble's humility, wisdom and humor endeared him to all, especially his loving wife, Chini.

Annubis, Bastet, and Sobek saw Noble as a symbol of humanity's potential. They groomed him for godhood, mentoring him in ancient wisdom and mystical arts. Noble's heart remained humble, his focus on protecting and serving.

As Noble's powers expanded, shadows stirred. Dark forces, hidden for centuries, began to reemerge. The balance of power shifted, threatening Earth's harmony. Noble, now a beacon of hope, stood ready to face the impending storms.

Alpha Balpha, supreme overlord of the dark world, dispatched a colossal sea creature and an army of 10,000 villains to ravage Srep Alam, formally known as England. Noble's 6th sense alerted him to the impending invasion.

As the creature, Groteus, rose from the depths, Noble confronted the behemoth. With a grin, he declared, "Your reign ends here!"

Groteus unleashed tidal waves and oceanic fury. Noble countered with cosmic blasts, forging a force field. The creature's razor-sharp fins sliced the air, but Noble dodged effortlessly, his agility augmented by his mastery of dimensions.

Noble summoned a maelstrom of sonic booms, disrupting Groteus's balance. Seizing the opening, he conjured a vortex, banishing the creature to the dark realm.

The villainous army followed, but Noble stood firm. His matter manipulation crafted an impenetrable shield. With precise cosmic blasts, he dispersed the forces, sending them fleeing.

Enraged, Alpha Balpha emerged from the shadows. "You dare defy me, Noble?"

Noble smiled. "Your darkness will never claim Earth's light."

With a wave of his hand, Noble unleashed a dimensional rift, sending Alpha Balpha's army plummeting into the abyss.

Alpha Balpha vowed revenge, but Noble remained vigilant, ever-prepared to defend his realm.

Chini, his loving wife, approached, her eyes shining with pride. "You are the master of your destiny, Noble."

Noble smiled. "Together, we'll safeguard Earth's harmony."

And so, Noble Ascendent stood watch, ever-ready to face the shadows, his spirit afire with courage and determination.

[The underground city, Haven, trembles as Viceral, an 11-foot-tall mutant warrior, rises to address the crowd. His voice thunders through the caverns.]

"Brothers and sisters, non-ascendants! How long will we toil in darkness, while Skome dwellers bask in luxury? How long will we suffer, while they thrive?"

[The crowd's murmurs grow to a chorus of discontent.]

"We, the mutants, are forced to live like beasts, scavenging for scraps! Meanwhile, they feast on abundance! Our strength, our power, wasted on menial tasks!"

[Viceral's massive fists shake with rage.]

"I'll never be an Ascendant! Their rules, their order, suffocate me! Living wild, crazy, and free – that's our birthright!"

[The crowd erupts in cheers.]

"We've built a machine, the Sky Piercer! With it, we'll storm the Skomes! Take what's rightfully ours! Resources, freedom, life!"

[Viceral's roar echoes.]

"We won't be silenced! We won't be oppressed! We'll rise, and our fury will shake the skies!"

[The crowd's fervor reaches a boiling point.]

"Together, mutants, we'll reclaim our place! No more hiding! No more submission! We'll show them our strength!"

[Viceral raises his massive arms, and the crowd follows.]

"Skomes, beware! Viceral and his mutants come for you!"

[Thunderous applause shakes New Haven's foundations.]

-  The Uprising Begins

As Viceral's words fade, the crowd mobilizes. The Sky Piercer, a towering machine, stands ready. Ethereal, Viceral's brother, approaches.

"Viceral, our plan—"

"Now's the time, brother!" Viceral interrupts. "No more waiting! 

And with that, the mutants, fueled by Viceral's passion, launch their revolution.

Noble Ascendent, Guardian of the Sky, concealed himself within the crowd while wearing disguise, listening intently as Viceral addressed the crowd. 

After Ethereal & Viceral concluded their discussion, Noble flew down from the sky and landed behind Viceral startling him. The ground cracked under Noble's feet as he landed.

"You're Noble Ascendent," Viceral growled. "What brings you to our gathering?"

Noble stood firm, his voice calm. "I've come to understand your motivations, Viceral. Your desire for equality"

Viceral's anger flared, but Noble sensed it wasn't directed at him.

"It's the ASC, isn't it?" Noble asked. "You feel they've denied your people the opportunities they deserve."

Viceral's gaze burned with intensity. "We're not just talking about opportunities, Noble. We're talking about basic rights. The ASC treats us like second-class citizens, forcing us to live in squalor while they bask in luxury."

Noble's expression softened, his heart sympathetic to Viceral's plight.

"I understand your frustration," Noble said. "But attacking the Skomes won't bring about the change you seek. It will only lead to destruction and suffering."

Viceral's scowl deepened. "You're just trying to protect your precious Skomes. You don't care about our struggles."

Noble held out a hand, a gesture of peace. "I'm offering you a truce, Viceral. Work with me, and together, we can find a way to address the inequalities and bring about a brighter future for all."

Viceral's laughter was a low, menacing rumble. "You think I'd trust the ASC or you, Noble? You're just trying to maintain the status quo. I'll never back down."

Noble's expression turned solemn. "Then, Viceral, I'm afraid our paths will cross in battle. But know this: I'll do everything in my power to minimize harm and find a way to end this conflict peacefully."

Viceral's snarl was his only response before he turned and disappeared into the shadows, leaving Noble to ponder the impending battle and the fate of the Skomes.
