Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Many would find themselves pondering, what exactly was fate?

Some call it destiny- a predetermined set of events that were bound to happen, but was that all it was?

"This golden river in my hands, or the free-flowing river you were all observing before I changed the surroundings, they all have a predetermined reality that they have to follow."

The mythical river that the Celestial Grandmaster had plucked was struggling in his hands as it wanted to quickly find a way out.

"But...what if it was possible to manipulate that reality? What if it was possible to manipulate fate?"

Thin lines of light released from his body as they covered the struggling river, gradually causing it to come down as it became as docile as possible. No more struggles occurred as the river became a circular lake, standing still as the Grandmaster raised his hands up.

"When one becomes proficient enough, manipulating and influencing these predetermined sets of realities becomes possible."

As he was speaking, his hands plucked out multiple golden flowing rivers around him as he turned them into docile lakes that serenely floated around him. It was at this moment though, that one could see the first river he had turned into a lake begin to tremble as it reformed back into a river.

"But this brings us to the next point that all of you have to ingrain into your origins. Things will always go back to the natural state they were in, a natural state that is filled with randomness and disorder. From a calm lake into a surging river, the thing to be understood is that at the core of all of it- randomness, or disorder, will always increase."
