Our creation is something we don't remember much of. All we know is that one day we were created and we were in a dark space with only us. We don't know how many of us are there. Many there is only one person but their mind was shattered to many pieces. It is confusing so we don't think much of it.

We are bored, we have nothing to interest us. We don't know what we should be doing. There is no one there to tell us the meaning of our existence. We simply have to figure out what we have to do. It's lonely, probably.... Some of us feel lonely and others feel nothing. We never have the same emotions as each other.

When we first were allowed out of the dark space it was a strange experience. We saw so many weird things that we couldn't understand. That was when we met our first human. This human had a look in their eyes we didn't like. They wanted power and only power. They didn't care what they had to do if it meant they would have the power.

That human ended up getting consumed by the power we gave them and now they are with us. When this human joined us we ended up getting their memories as well. It was a sad story. Wanting power so they would be noticed by the one person who never gave them the time of the day.

We don't hear a lot from that human, only when they have the urge to hurt someone. The next human we met was always wearing a black veil in front of their face. They always sounded like they were going to cry and it was confusing. This human just wanted to make the people who had caused their sufferings to suffer a fate worse than theirs.

We gave them the ability to do that but at the cost of them losing themselves forever. The human didn't care and actually sounded happy when we consume them as well. We ended up with their memories as well and it was a tragic story. A love that couldn't happen no matter how hard the two lovers tried to fight against their fates.

This human helped us understand a few human emotions. We like hearing from them the most since their voice always sounds so peaceful to us. The next human we met were two small beings that were called children. They looked alike but they were different 'genders'. We didn't know what 'genders' were but humans are confusing so we don't pay much attention to it.

These children asked us to help them protect their 'family'. We didn't know what a 'family' is but it seemed like it was important to these children. We gave them our powers and they were grateful to us for help. They allow us to consume them even though they didn't end up falling to our power.

We couldn't understand what they meant about us sounding so lonely. We sound normal and not strange at all. We felt conflicted as we consumed these two children. They didn't mind about leaving their 'family' behind and that confused us. Didn't they care for their 'family'?

When we got their memories we finally understood, they cared about 'family' but the 'family' they were with wasn't good to them. The children knew their 'family' was bad but they didn't deserve the fate that was going to happen to them. We can't understand why they would help the people who had hurt them before? Humans are so confusing and we don't know if we could ever understand them.

We met another human and they had wrinkles on their face. This human had a faraway look in their eyes and looked like they were just an empty shell. This human wanted help in escaping from the place they were in. They didn't want power or anything like that. They just wanted to leave the place they were in.

We consume them and they became a part of us like the others. We end up getting the memories of them as well and it was a cruel one. This one 'family' forced them to get married to a man that they didn't love and didn't give them a choice to refuse. They were in a cage and not allowed to leave. They didn't care for the children they gave birth to and never once saw them as their children. they simply hated them all and never wanted to have them. This human did feel regret for not being able to feel a bit of love for any of their children.
