The Chain of Eternity

The Throne's Awakening

The moment the voice spoke—

The Throne of the Betrayer trembled.

It wasn't a physical tremor.

It was deeper.

The very concept of the throne rippled through existence, sending waves across time and space. The sky above Ethan fractured violently, splitting into jagged shards of light and shadow.

Something inside the throne awakened.

Something that should have never stirred again.

Ethan's golden-shadow flames flared, reacting instinctively. His instincts screamed at him—this was not an enemy he could fight the way he had fought before.

The throne wasn't just a seat of power.

It was a cage.

A prison so absolute that its very presence rewrote the laws of reality.

And it was no longer dormant.

The Throne Rejects Reality

Ethan took a slow step forward—and the world broke around him.

Not an explosion.

Not an attack.
