The Collapse of the Kingdom
A kingdom disappeared in an instant.
One moment, it stood—a city of towering spires and bustling streets, filled with thousands of lives. And then, without a sound, it was gone.
In its place, there was nothing.
Not ruin. Not rubble. Not even the lingering echoes of what once was. Just a vast, shifting void, a wound in reality itself.
Ethan staggered back as the shockwave of unreality blasted across the land, rippling through the sky like shattered glass reforming in impossible patterns. The Rift's power had never felt like this before—so absolute, so final.
Mia gasped, gripping her staff, eyes wide with horror. Orion braced himself, feet digging into the unstable ground, jaw clenched. Selene merely stared ahead, her lips pressed into a thin, unreadable line.
From the void, it emerged.
The Rift's master.
