Bet against eternity (epilogue of the prologue, part 2, END)

For the people appearing from all over the universe on this planet, the situation had to be quite eerie. Even though for the most part, they didn't have even a shred of an idea of what was going on, under the influence of the magic that infused every particle on this planet, they could only sit down directly on the grass and wait for me to free them from this compulsion.

Doing something like that posed no challenge to me, even though most of those people were rather good at using magic themselves. From the witches, through mages, cultivators, wizards and spellcasters, all kinds of quirky personalities continued to appear one by one on the vast plain that I designed for the starting location.

Only when the last of the scheduled heroes finally arrived, did I break the silence.

"Welcome, everyone."
