Layla cursed loudly and slammed her hands on the keys. “I just need thirty seconds” “We don’t have thirty seconds!” “Tell it to stop!”

that was already being calibrated in the shadows of the city’s ancient tunnels. Commander Haxon watched the skies from a hidden command center, a twisted smile on his face. He held a small, violet vial - the concentrated essence of the Aetheric Blight. "Let them come," Haxon whispered into his comms. "The world has been asleep for too long. It’s time for a nightmare that they can't wake up from." The countdown to the Geneva Peace Summit had begun. The "Silent Remnant" was no longer a ghost in the machine; it was a blade at the world’s throat, and LNI was the only hand strong enough to catch the edge.

"Nora, it doesn't need power. It needs the specific gravity of the three things Nana cared about." ​I placed my hand on the first indentation. Liam placed his hand over the heart. And Rowan, clutching a withered, blackened lily from the garden, pressed the flower into the third. ​With a heavy, pneumatic hiss, the hatch spiraled open. ​"Everyone in! Move!" I commanded. ​The forty-two Echoes tumbled into the dark, followed by Sofia and Hestia. I was the last one in, looking back just as the greenhouse doors were kicked open. A Sterling Recovery soldier in a white tactical visor leveled his rifle at me.

Z-04’s white-blue eyes narrowed at Jay. The creature stepped closer. Elias tried to rise. Alexander forced himself upright, blood dripping from his lip, glow trembling. Lena backed away, pulling Jay behind her. “What do you want?!” she shouted. Z-04 answered inside her skull, its thoughts sharp as shards of ice: “Stabilization required. Z-03: incomplete.

At the end of the evening, Noa says: "What is the fourth decade?" "The long view," Valentina says. Noa considers this. "From the altitude," she says. "Like the Bunkers."

light toward the island. But it didn't hit. A violet shield—identical to the frequency of Alexander’s heartbeat—flared into existence over the island, powered by the Core itself.

Directly below me was a room that looked completely alien compared to the rusted Abyss. It was a pristine, glass – walled octagon suspended over a massive chasm.

I watched the red light crawl toward the gates, my stone fingers curling into a flawless, unyielding fist.
