The Nexus Beyond

The quiet hum of the night lingered as the system watched over Liria's sleeping form. But its thoughts were far from tranquil. The encounter in the void had left it rattled, more so than it cared to admit.

The Dark Sovereign.

A name that even the most powerful entities feared to speak aloud. And now, somehow, she had reached into this realm—into its realm—and brushed against the fragile thread that tethered Liria's life to its own existence.

The system's form flickered, uncertainty clouding its usually sharp mind. This wasn't something it could ignore. It needed answers. It needed reinforcements.

It needed the Nexus.

With a final glance at Liria, ensuring she remained undisturbed, the system's form shimmered, dissolving into a stream of light that vanished into the unseen dimensions beyond the mortal plane.

The transition was instantaneous.
