“Welcome to Zone 1 , darling. The Playground of the Damned.” I blinked at him. “The what?” He chuckled, though it wasn’t funny at all. “The Playground. Zone 1 . The system calls it Erevos. Fancy sci-fi name for a death trap, if you ask me.” My chest tightened. “What the hell do you mean, system?” He stood and pointed toward a massive screen glowing at the far end of the room. The light from it painted everyone’s faces in eerie blue. “See that?” he said. “That’s the Overseer. The AI that runs this shitshow.”

“Hurry, Aelys—something’s stirring.” The star-rift pulses, its void-energy surging, the Veilheart crystal’s monument dimming, its vines cracking. A hymn echoes—cold, radiant—the Void Herald’s voice, taunting. “Child of the Veil, your sister’s lie crumbles—her discarded essence rises!” Starborn scream as Erynn’s faction emerges, their twin-star eyes gleaming, their blades pulsing with rift-energy, their hymns aligned with the Herald’s. Erynn, tall and defiant, steps forward, her starborn aura blazing, her voice a challenge. “Aelys, give us Kalia’s relic—it’s the Herald’s key!” Kalia’s orb sparks, her aura flaring, her voice fierce. “Never!” I step between them, my blade raised, my hymn mortal

The Obsidian Belt was not a place for the living; it was a cosmic junkyard of jagged, iron-rich asteroids and the frozen ghosts of ancient tectonic shifts. The Ghost-Runner drifted through the debris like a shadow, its engines cold, its hull clicking as the metal contracted in the absolute zero of the Deep Belt. Inside, the emergency lighting was a dim, rhythmic amber, casting long, flickering shadows across the faces of the three children huddled in the narrow cargo berth.

​The sight beyond the Respiration’s viewport was no longer a galaxy; it was a Manuscript in Motion. The Galactic Core had been completely submerged in a literal ocean of pitch-black, viscous ink—an abyss that didn't reflect light but seemed to suck the very hope out of the vacuum. Standing upon this oily, undulating surface were the thousands of Eric Parsleys, their figures varying from transparent ghosts to solid, ink-drenched titans.

Beastfolk were on the lower end of society's hierarchy. If Nathaniel's beastfolk side was revealed to the public, his company would be in danger. This was great news! I was delighted, and tears of joy streamed down my astral form's cheeks. Now I finally had dirt on him! Let's see him trying to snipe my projects now! The serpent's tail slowly coiled around me. Its chilly sensation was the polar opposite of Nathaniel's warmth. A song of ice and fire.

Shit, his hard-on strained against his pants desperate for some attention and it took all of his willpower to step aside and let ger through "Yeah thanks!" she said walking past them just long enough for them to breathe in her floral scent,which from Darren's hooded look drove him just as mad as it did him, fuck! lunch was becoming a seemingly bad idea and it hadn't even begun yet, it'd be a miracle if they did fuckin pull this off. †† Erick Rowan He seemed to forget uncomfortable portalling could be especially when the portals were made by those silly clumsy trolls. He'd found himself almost retching from discomfort and couldn't be more thankful when his feet found solid earth again

I said, sprinting from the cavern. I reached my room, pausing just outside the curtain to catch my breath. I went in, stepping over Burney and past Lills, who was wrapped in Dave's arms. I crawled into bed and lay down, wrapping myself to my chin in the blankets. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, slipping my ring from my finger. The world behind my eyelids lit up, and I was standing again, a ghost in a world of shimmering beauty. I looked down at my sleeping companions and smiled. Lillith lay there as perfect as ever, her every feature as clear and solid as it was in the waking world.

There are even more tunnels leading elsewhere. The area is so large that a few hundred people should be able to commute here in no time.

I can feel the sensation of worms on my skin getting more intense, nothing I can't bear. "Soren, you finally decided to pay me a visit." Ishtar teased me. I gave a low chuckle and got serious. "Did Ghost really drain himself to create some neutral energy?" I asked the wizard. "Yes, I'm impressed with him. At no point did Ghost want to be anything other than helpful." Ishtar spoke and walked over to one of the shelves and picked up a crystal vial, inside which was a bluish liquid mixed with silver dots as if it were trapped in the moonlight.
