Chapter 30 (Parts 12)
The chamber shook with every clash of gold and violet. Alok's chains flared brighter, drawing lines of shimmering power through the storm.
Extera's wings stretched wide, the sigils on them glowing like suns about to collapse.
Their battle echoed through the labyrinth
and far, far beyond.
While this Extera and Alok fight
Some one watch this this All Time
The Unietime Realm (Timeless Realm)
A place without sound or motion.
A realm that did not flow with time but existed outside it.
Stars hung like frozen dust.
Fragments of shattered worlds drifted in still cosmic seas.
A thousand glass orbs floated above a silver dais, each reflecting a different reality living worlds, realms of gods, and battles of mortals.
And within one of those orbs…
burned the light of the Devourer's Dominion.
Several figures stood around it radiant silhouettes wrapped in cloaks of glass and shadow, their eyes pulsing with silver light.
They were the Time Watchers, dwellers of the Doxteon, observers of all living realms.
Watcher I:
"…The balance trembles again. The Devourer awakens and yet, he faces… a human?"
Watcher II: (with a faint scoff)
"A low-born mortal, wielding golden chains against a Wordsal Entity? How absurd."
Watcher III: (leaning closer to the orb)
"No. Look closer. His chains aren't merely resisting they're synchronizing. Do you see the pattern?"
Watcher IV: (coldly)
"Impossible. No human should grasp the rhythm of Wordsal magic. Even in the old cycles, no one "
A faint hum rippled through the chamber.
The orb showing Alok flickered, his golden energy resonating even in the still air of the Timeless Realm.
Watcher I: (slowly)
"…Then who gave him the seed of resonance? Who placed this will in a mortal shell?""…Then who gave him the seed of resonance? Who placed this will in a mortal shell?"
Watcher III: (lowering tone)
"Do not ask that here. The last who questioned it… was erased."
A brief silence timeless, endless.
Watcher II: (gritting teeth)
"Hmph. Whatever his origin, he cannot defeat Extera. The Devourer's heart burns with divine fire. This human's chains will break."
Watcher IV:
"Perhaps. But if he endures even for a moment longer than fate allows it means something old is moving again."
The orbs around them trembled, and faint ripples spread across the silver dais, like echoes of a heartbeat… one that shouldn't exist in a realm without time.
The Devourer's Dominion
Extera's laughter cracked through the air, violet lightning clawing across the walls. "Bold human! You think you can read the Devourer's heart?"
Alok's chains tightened, drawing sparks of gold from the storm. "I don't need to read it. I can feel it."
In the Unietime Realm, the Watchers leaned closer.
Watcher III:
"…He speaks the same way as"
Watcher I: (interrupting, sharply)
"Enough. That name is forbidden."
Watcher IV: (softly, almost reverent)
"Then let us see how this ends. The Devourer devours… and yet this mortal balances. Perhaps fate itself is rewriting before our eyes."
The orb pulsed brighter. In its surface gold and violet light merged two forces neither divine nor mortal, meeting in harmony and conflict.
And far beyond even the Watchers' sight, in a place where forgotten gods slept… something stirred.
