Frozen Nova

The moment Kaleb entered the Runic Gate, everything around him turned pitch-black.

He couldn't see anything, and his other senses felt disoriented as well.

The only thing he could feel was a strong force pulling him somewhere. The pitch-black scenery around him began to change as time passed eerily slowly. Dazzling white points dotted the black scenery around him. Stars emerged all around him, but before Kaleb could focus on the scenery, space twisted and he had to close his eyes.

A bright light at the end of the Runic Gate dazzled him.

For a moment, his sense of time disappeared. Kaleb was not sure how much time had passed, but when he opened his eyes again, he felt great.

Finally, he had arrived in the Origin Expanse! 

"I can catch up to you now, Michael!!" He shouted aloud as a strong gust of frigid air brushed past his face.

He felt like he was about to freeze to death and began to shiver uncontrollably.
