The sky rumbled, thundering louder then any lightning, or any earthquake. The clouds, as well as the sky above would have ripped apart, showing a whole different realm. The sky of this other realm had large strands of red and purple floating through it, but other then that, there were no stars, no moons, just floating debris, it looking like a large star had exploded, taking everything within that realm with it. Multiple black strands descended from that sky around the mansion, Darius slowly walking out from the mansion as it did so. Tears lay fresh on his face, the odd realm engulfing him, then dissapearing. "Goodbye..."
The window to the other realm would have closed with such force that the trees underneath it would have bent and collapsed. Darius would have appeared within a large room, an arena of sorts. Within it which sat many beings, some glowing with such light that they could be seen as god, others with such darkness that they could be called 'Devils.' One final being would have entered the room, radiating such a power that it engulfed all else, all the gods; as well as all the devils cowering before it. It opened it's mouth, such a voice echoing from it that any normal being would have lost their hearing, yet still heard, the voice echoing in the minds of all present.
"You, former head of the Pantheon of Realms. You, the one being under the Creator of All. You... god of the Void, the endless abyss, that which engulfs and cradles us all. You have been found guilty of slaying hundreds of us, Holy and Evil, you are guilty of causing all the realms to fall out of balance. You who were more powerful then all created beings, you who could have ran from us for all eternity, yet instead of doing so, you gave your life to save one soul. We ask you before your sentence is carried out. Why did you do these things...?"
Darius smiled a defiant smile, "The many races of the many realms, they no longer require your worthless powers. They can live for themselves, breath for themselves, and walk for themselves. I have seen that and more over my countless millenias of wondering about. You who think your all powerful are weak before them, you lack the power to move them, you lack the power to even turn their heads... As for why I saved that soul, it's the thing I gained, and the thing all of you lack. Love..."
Four giant spears descended from the ceiling, one running through the middle of his chest, one through his waist, one through his heart, and one through the side opposite his heart. "Enough of your useless words..."
Darius smiled again, looking up straight at the figure. "You will rule no more." With those words, Darius collapsed, breathing his final breath. As that last breath left his lungs, an unescapable pressure surrounded the structure in which they all sat, screams echoing as some tried to escape, others instantly resigning themselves to their fate. Soon enough there was nothing left, one could have looked under a microscope, and not seen a thing.

One man looked up to the sky, staring at it hard and long. In his hand he held a book, in which a pen scribbled down the last few words of an epic journey. When he closed the book it dissapeared, appearing in a special slot in what looked to be an endless library. "So concludes the longest tale I shall ever write..." With a smile Drake looked up walking towards the mansion where that person had lived.
