I would appreciate feedback.
Thank you.

The Son of Sorrow. Whose name has been unspoken by any who know of his sin. He was Mayhem. Taboo. Hatred. Disgust. Calamity. Pandemonium. His name… Not even he could remember his true name. Here he sits, in vast nothingness. His eyes blank. Nothing fills his downward gaze. He was locked here millions of years ago for a crime most unforgivable. His gaze wasn’t always so empty. For the first thousand years he was calm. Then insanity. Searching for ways out. For ways back to his brother. Then, Nothing. Not a glimmer of life filled him anymore. Lost in thought for more years than he could remember. His downward gaze aching. His robes torn. But, His features absolutely perfect. But still nothing. Absolute nothing…
Then it happened. That spark in his eye as he realized the answer after so very long. He began to laugh with a certain maniacal ring to it. His brother was the answer. The brother who was locked in a similar prison of nothingness. His brother, whose power far surpassed his own. Jehovah. Surely Jehovah was as eager to escape as he was. If he could establish a link to his brother from here, perhaps he can get him to open the cell from the outside. Perhaps Jehovah could find the door that his brother had spent millions, perhaps billions, of years searching for. Jehovah was, after all, the smarter of the two. His smile widened as he closed his eyes.
Another immeasurable amount of time passed before he was able to connect with Jehovah. But was this really the evil being he knew as his brother? Caring for lesser beings? Creating peace throughout a universe he created inside his cell? Surely this was some kind of joke. Time after time he tried sending messages to Jehovah, but each was overlooked, as though he had forgotten who he was. What he had done. There was but one option. Re-corruption. Perhaps if he could corrupt this seemingly perfect Jehovah, he could find the brother he once knew. But alas, Jehovah was too powerful for Him to send commands or thoughts to. But, Jehovah’s creations were not. If he could send all of Jehovah’s creations into chaos and hatred, maybe, just maybe, Jehovah will remember the past he had forgotten, and return to his evil roots, and his brother’s aid.
Thought after thought sent to being after being. Only 2 places remain untouched by this evil. The first was Eden, the garden valley that those holy figures known as Saints roam. The second, Atlantis, a city created by the humans to honor Jehovah and apologies for the sins they committed in the past. Perhaps those were weak points. Perhaps that is why they are guarded so well. Lucky for Him, there were ways to get to those points without using his power directly. Patience was the key to this ever-expanding prison of nothingness. He would soon be free from his eternal prison. Free to return to the world he once knew. Free to bring about what he planned to before.
