Entity civilization leadership manifested at the Singapore perimeter with enough dimensional pressure to collapse atmospheric stability across three kilometers, spatial distortion visible to civilians sheltering underground, terrified by an extinction-level threat repeating barely a week after the civil war had already gutted the facility once. Rama coordinated the defensive deployment fast, establishing positions to keep leadership from reaching the interior, where command entity Lv520 lived now, proof that even the collective consciousness could be defied.
The preparations felt hopeless against something that matched the Timeline Arbiter's own dimensional authority, concentrated entirely on overwhelming Coalition forces. It was the convergence crisis again. The Extinction Entity again. Standing between annihilation and defending one entity's right to choose.
Being Timeline 48 apparently meant doing the impossible on a schedule.
