The Collector of Worlds

In a universe where power defines existence, worlds are not conquered… they are harvested. He is known only as the Collector, a silent executioner who drifts from one world to another, carrying out the will of the one he owes everything to. His Master. Bound by a debt he can never repay, he follows a single command: find the worthy… and erase the rest. From thriving civilizations to ancient realms, nothing escapes his judgment. Entire worlds are compressed into a single Origin Core, their history, their power, their very existence reduced to a fragment he delivers without question. In return, he is granted time. A few more years to live. Because he believes that without his Master… he will die. But as countless worlds fall and the weight of his actions begins to settle, something starts to fracture within him. Doubt. Hesitation. Questions that should not exist. Why does an immortal fear death? Why does survival feel like a chain? And why do the ruins of the worlds he destroys feel… wrong? Unbeknownst to him, every mission, every world, every life taken is part of something far greater, a design set in motion long before he ever opened his eyes. A design that began with the fall of his race. As the truth slowly unravels, the Collector will come to face a reality more terrifying than any enemy he has ever encountered: He was never meant to live. He was never meant to choose. He was only ever meant to become… the perfect tool.
