Chapter 126: Creation Realigned

"The Crosspath is flawed." Huge words to say, though small in my mouth. The entirety of the gathering swayed toward me as one. Their despair tingled, acutely apparent, their doubt rippling through them, over me, breaking cold sweat out of my upper lip. My forehead. Running in a trickle down the small of my back. But I couldn't stop now, had to keep going, they had to know all of it. "The evolution of Creation is damaged, and only now, with the return of Chaos and the Mist realm, is Creation realigning itself, the Crosspath forming the shape it needs in order for Creation to become what it was always meant to." I paused before pushing on. "Had my return not come to pass, the prophecy of the Angels would be your Fate. But with the release of Chaos, Creation's true reveal is nigh." Huge exhale as I let that sink in. Because without a doubt, my heart pounding around the edges of terror, I knew this to be true with every fiber of me, and every whisper of mist within.
