He poured the seeds, thousands of tiny, obsidian-colored pearls, into the center of the basin. They looked pathetic against the vast, dead concrete. "Sophia... release the Aether," Leo whispered into his comms. A mile above them, in the heart of the Spire, Sophia slammed the final override. The Aether-Core let out a sub-harmonic roar that shook the very bedrock of Neo-Tokyo.
