~Reflection Solo~
Vassou believed that everything up to his last task was a test to prove that he was ready or unworthy to become a goddess. He looked back to his first task with tired eyes. He gave a sigh as he remember how the horrible creature wanted his heart. A cold shiver ran down his spine as he thought of how it wanted to kill him. He couldn't remember why it wanted to, but it struck his heart with fear. He clutched his hand tightly above his heart. It ached as he longed to learn what these tasks would be like when judgment day would come. The day that the next goddesses would be chosen. He never wanted to endure those awful trials again. His hands begin to shake as tears rolled down his face, while recalling the second require task. Those ghoulish, hollow, eyes had pierced his very existence. "Why... Why do they have to torture us as if we are disposable beings?" Asking himself as he tried to compose himself, but nothing could calm his mind from that task. There was nothing he could do about it though.
It had completely scarred himself as a being and until his body would fade. He was trying his hardest to remember what that memory was that caused him to lose against that monster. He growled as he clutched his hands tightly by his sides. He put his hand to the back of his neck and gave another light sigh. "It's no use... I can't remember..." He whispered lightly as he wiped away the, mostly, dried tears with a free hand. He fiddled with his blank tag that hung around his neck. With each new blessing, he felt closer to becoming a complete being. After the last task he had done, he felt more alive. He could feel what others could feel and could move freely to the other realms to interact with other beings. His shape was becoming more defined after every task, but answers would be nice. He shook his head light, "No use it thinking over it too much..." He spoke lightly as he passed a bit then gave up entirely. There was no point in trying to figure out what was forgotten. He finally came to the conclusion of just accepting that whatever he had forgotten may not come back, nor will the sinking feeling in his chest go away either.
