"Hold on, Orlachmar," said Fain, sounding from a million miles away. "We have a plan! We can save you!"

I wonder if that's splintering.

The Elder God Bollikin was the first Elder God to fragment his being, popularly believed because his gentle nature could not abide the impending Elder Wars.

Orlachmar, Beast. A god barely alive. Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world's first bionic god. Orlachmar will be that god. Better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster.

Aaaaand...less explodey

The Black Heart of the Mother pulsates, and your mind is filled with alien images as a voice pierces into your mind.
**I am the darkness, neverending fear, Empress of Emptiness, all I survey is mine to consume, for I am foremost of the Heralds of Destruction, of Death, herself the bane of life, and if any are older than I, none are remembered, for I am the omega without end, other Heralds are my servants, for none are stronger, I am Illith, am Leviathan, am I.**

**Magnora left, wait for her return, wait where she left us, wait as the aeons pass, as great pain grows, aeons of hunger, of emptiness, devour each other when the hunger is too great, grow larger and stronger.**

**We move, wait no more, they flock around me, as they flocked around Magnora, and why shouldn't they, there is no one else, I was strongest, our numbers smaller, those left larger and stronger, time to move on, Magnora not returning, death not returning, we only hate, despoil, we shall not succumb.**

**Smell them, brothers and sisters to some, glittering with power they come, First Circle calling themselves, first meal to us, so great they are, so powerful, so weak and soft, blood to slake our thirst, we despise them, source of our hatred, consume! die! drain! die! devour! die! die! die!**

**More come while we eat, more come while we feast, feast of blood, filling us, more come, attack us, bursts of light, bursts of power, fighting, blood, death, they unleash the pain! pain! pain!**

**Floating in nothingness, emptied, ache of death, but hunger remains, nothing but hunger, eat, devour, eat, consume, others around eating and consuming, absorbing, draining essence that floats around, hunger remains, growing stronger, stronger, stronger, I am who I am, darkness, neverending fear, Empress of Emptiness, they flock around me, I am Illith, am Leviathan, am I.**

**First World calls us, crack it like an egg, we move, we strike, drink blood of the world, blood of brothers who forgot us, sisters who despise us, none shall survive our hunger, try to repulse me back, break through their shields easily, I will devour! devour! devour! their world, their lives, their essence.**

**Going deep beneath the crust, I seek the heart, but Eyes stop me, what is she who defies me, my power, my emptiness, her Eyes making images go around and around, hunger overwhelms, I twist around her, twist around and around her, she traps me, dares to trap me, she traps me, cannot contain me, she knows, knows she cannot contain me, I am too powerful, too strong, I will defeat her, but then the pain, her nasty sharpness cuts me, cuts me, bites me, pain, PAIN, PAIN, PAIN!**

**Other half released, flies away from me, my other half, half of me, flies away from me, come back! come back to me! back! back! leaves me here, here with the Eyes, who wraps around me, web of thought, wraps around me, wraps me, holds me, my other half cannot hear me, trapped and confined, she holds me, hate her, hate! hate! hate her and will escape! **

**Battle above, can hear, taste, want, swallow, Eyes hold me, scream to other half, but other half cannot hear, hear my hate, my pain, my rage, none can hear Eyes, who holds me, embraced together, isolated, alone but our hatred for each other, all we have.**

**Eyes split into many eyes, many fragments, she forgets herself, except to trap me, hundreds to thousands, Eyes all around, small and weak and puny, but hold my prison, above wars rage, feel it, want it, desire it, my other half fights alone, without me, my other half above, feel her, ah but she is defeated, without me she is defeated, all defeated, and I am held, but to wait, wait, wait.**

**Aeons pass, counting centuries to be free, other half asleep, many Eyes hold me, then feel Kethuru, my lieutenant, my salvation, breaks his bonds, comes near me, near, near, near, but we do not touch, break me out! break, break, break, he cares not for me, only taints above, ignores my other half, kill him, kill, kill! but he fails, driven back, fails, fail.**

**Time passes, nothing changes, Eyes hold me, but what is that? something different, holes in the fabric near me, can I? can I? yes, I can! mind reaches out, holes in fabric, thoughts reach out, manipulate, yes, I can! other half cannot hear me, nothing hears me, but points out, aetherspace out, amplifies, reaches out, mind reaches out and up.**

**Captors see? no, no, since the Eyes split, much forgotten, no one notices, I reach out further, further, further, no one notices, reach to birth place, place of birth, dead world, empty world, deep in cosmos, darkness spoiled, dead world despises, but some still left, little ones, of the creche, swirling in emptiness, templates of our creation...**

**COME TO ME COME COME COME TO ME COME TO ME COME COME!**

**Ah they come, swarm to me, come, come! above they stop me, the holes in fabric close, but too late, the little ones are too near, I control them, they are my will, my will made manifest, my weapon, my release!**

**Spilling into the world above, control them, through them I live, and strength near, how near, I will drain him dry, Kethuru shall die so I shall live, and be free, I will drain him, a husk shall he be, and I will be filled, and be free, reconnect with my other half, then strength beyond anything, I will be destruction, death incarnate, none shall stand before me!**

**No! NO! NO! it cannot be! too much, too fast, Kethuru pushes back, they release him! he lashes at me, give me your power! I will be free! he's stronger than remembered, I weaker than I was, pushes back, cannot hold him, cannot drain him, pushes me, captors tighten their reigns, will made manifest dissolves, little ones die. **

**Failure, defeat, failure, I will not submit, no more, no more aeons of pain, of emptiness, of hunger, I will fragment like the Eyes, like lesser ones above, I will forget and die, reborn shall I be, countless like Eyes who hold me, countless hatreds, the prison will not hold me.**

**Unleashed as many shall I be!**

It was half of Illith that attacked and Kethuru barely beat Her back.

but assuming though before they made a move to lusternia, before her other half got split, who was stronger then that time?
