The void healed slow, like a wound closing after a brutal fight.
Light crept back—first faint stars, then golden sunrise bleeding across reforming skies. Shattered islands merged into solid land, oceans crashing new, forests sprouting green defiant. The Eternal Arena's ruins faded into history, leaving a fresh world—no gods watching, no devourer lurking. Just freedom... and the weight of the fallen.

First circle: The Core Rebels.
Haru raised fist, voice steady but emotional. "We started this mess together. We finish rebuilding together."

The Mirage Traders.

He and Clara stayed center—neutral hub.
Haru smiled small. "No more seeds forced fight. We choose alliances."
Clara healed a joining fighter. "World's ours—godless, devourer-free."
Survivors cheered soft—roars, winds, shadows, ices, dreams mixing legendary harmony.
New dawn rose—sun mythic gold, no divine strings.
