What is space?
It is a concept defined by humans, abstract beyond compare, and even with the technological level of the former Federation, it couldn't be completely understood.
However, in this alternate world, the combination of magic power and mental perception allowed Lynn to see the existence of space in an intuitive way.
Rows of close and orderly lines spread everywhere, like a tightly closed grid interweaving, connecting with each other—not in a static state of solidification but exhibiting a kind of active distortion!
String theory? Lynn thought subconsciously, only to quickly realize that the scene he was seeing did not correspond entirely with string theory.
Or perhaps space was presenting itself to his perception in a way he could understand!
This sense of distortion was the most severe around Aurora, with left and right inverted, space in disarray—that was why Aurora's use of the electromagnetic railgun ended up backfiring on Harrov and Vittorio.
