I want to get lost.

I want to get lost.

Saffron sunrise in Bagan, Myanmar My wanderlust has given way to fernweh, and I can feel it at my heels like a hound of mad dogs. They’re yapping and they’re snapping, they’re sinking their teeth into my Achilles, and I am strangely at peace. I don’t need to get away, I need to get lost. I want to get lost in the sea and in the mountains, I want to get lost in your scent and in your arms, I…

Photo by @rubensalgadoescudero | Sunset overlooking Thisa Wadi Temple in Bagan, one of my favorite places in the world to visit.

The recent suggestion for Destoroyah and Bagan existing only as different route exclusives gave me an idea on how to make the the “Balkzardan and Jyarumu are the two halves of Bagan’s soul” idea work with this.

Basically Bagan was the first Destroyer Titan. He was meant to be the embodiment of the balance required to keep the planet stable, harnessing both light and dark to act as a stabilizer via destruction. Think of it like how wildfires tend to help revitalize forests. This, predictably, didn’t go well. He rampaged across the planet, destroying wantonly for pleasure. The other titans of the time fought a long and fierce battle to contain the mad destroyer. Eventually he was sealed away deep beneath the land that would one day be known as China. His soul was split from his body and torn in two, creating the twins of the light and dark. His body, preserved but soulless, withered within the temple he had been sealed in. It wasn’t until one of the Makers, the soul survivor of Ghidorah’s rampage across the cosmos, made their way to earth. Collecting the DNA of Ghidorah and Godzilla, it used the genetic material of both the false and true kings to revitalize Bagan’s body. But his soul would need to be reconstructed. Using a variant of the ORCA, they lured the twins to a climatic fight. Sensing something wrong, the other titans of the planet coalesced at the same site, but despite numerous valiant attempts, were unable to stop the twins from mutually slaying each other, freeing Bagan’s soul to reenter his restored and now even more powerful body. The reborn Bagan views himself as a “son” of Godzilla and Ghidorah, using the fact that the combination of their DNA allows him to be much stronger than he was even before his sealing away as a way to taunt the King of the Monsters.

Just something I thought up with cause I love the ideas others are having with stuff such as Battra and building upon others, so I thought I’d build upon that one ask about Bagan and his coexistence role.

Seems that sole survivor learned precisely nothing about what happened the last time his species tried playing god, which is all too appropriate for AbraxasVerse villains!
