Sea of Ruin.
In the depths of the Chaos Starsea, there existed a forbidden land that none below Oracle-grade could touch.
And yet, even Oracle-grade beings could find no true safety here.
A burial ground piled high with countless bones had transformed into an ocean of corpses.
The remains of innumerable Oracle-grade beings lay dormant here, buried through untold ages, through countless eras.
At the end of the Sea of Ruin stood a colossal stone block forged from some nameless substance.
It stretched across a million miles, yet it was not a sealed solid mass.
There was a gate in the stone.
Tap.
Tap. Tap.
Crisp footsteps echoed within.
The sound spread across the entire Sea of Ruin, then rippled outward from that sea of bones, shaking the whole Chaos Starsea.
It was as though an invisible hammer had struck every star.
Tap—!
A skeletal foot stepped out from beyond the gate.
