What does it takes to become the Ruler of the Celestial Spheres?

[ElijahRyne]

Setting: A busy restaurant, in the middle of the day, whose tables are filled. The narrator is sitting at a table in the center of the room. They are wearing the restaurant’s uniform with an obscured name tag. Person 1-3 are sitting at the table behind the Narrator. They are wearing nice suits and look like they are in the middle of some sort of business meeting. Waiter is walking between tables asking for orders. They are wearing the restaurant’s uniform. The boss is waiting in the kitchen staring at an uncooked box of fish sticks. They too are wearing the staff uniform.

Scene: The restaurant is noisy and crowded before the Narrator slams their hands on the table. The room begins to quiet down before the Narrator begins to speak.

Narrator: *Slam* “What does it take to become the Ruler of the celestial spheres? Hell, what are they even?“

Person 1: ”Perhaps the layers of reality that surrounds us, as if we are the center of a nesting doll?“. -Person 1‘s voice cuts through the silence. He gestures gang signs to person 2-3 the entire time they speak.-

Waiter & Person 2: “Or, maybe they are far off worlds whose majesty is unknown?” -The Waiter gives Person 1 the stink eye while speaking, while Person 2 has their eyes closed and continuously nods their head.

Person 3: “Wait arn’t they just the plan—“

Narrator: ”How does one become their ruler?“

Waiter + Person 1&2: “Through ascending through the void?”

Person 3: “With an iron fist?” -Hesitant-

Narrator: “Maybe it is one of these, on none of these, no one really knows, but perhaps you can be the one to find out?”

Boss: *Slam*“Perhaps you should take box of frozen fish sticks and go back to work.”

Narrator: “… Yes, boss…”

Carefully.

Becoming a ruler is easy. You just declare it. Having the show of power to protect your sovereignty is the tricky part. You can buy it, force it, and/or have followers who can defend it. Doesn't matter what the stage is.

It's really just the youth who think all you need to be is a warlord.

Ai-chan doesn't understand what is the writing prompt here. What exactly is the other authors supposed to write? What is the limitation imposed on the writing?
