CRIMSON LIGHT

In another reality, a being named KUK stood before two others, an expression of solemnity across his face. His presence commanded respect, but today, it bore a different weight.

"What? Are you serious, KUK?" one of the beings exclaimed, his voice filled with disbelief.

KUK nodded gravely. "I can't hide this from you two any longer," he said, his tone carrying the finality of his decision. "I'm sorry, but this will be my last storyline. After this, I will dissolve and return to my original home."

The other being, standing silent, looked shocked but didn't speak. KUK turned to him with a softened gaze, addressing him as brother.

"You know this is for the betterment of the multiverse," KUK said, his voice laced with affection and regret. "You've always known. And... my last piece of information for you—come closer."

The brother leaned in, and KUK whispered something in his ear, a message lost to us. The brother's face changed, his eyes widening with surprise before his body faltered. For the first time in millions of Quato years, the being fainted, overwhelmed by what he had heard.

KUK then turned to the second being, revealing a truth about his father and mother, something so profound that it would, in time, lead to the death of the fainted brother—and ultimately, the unraveling of this reality itself.

With his revelations complete, KUK's body began to dissolve into the void, a cosmic wind sweeping over the fabric of existence. As the process began, he smiled, revealing his face for the first time—a face that none had ever seen, radiant with both sadness and peace. His form faded, disappearing entirely into the abyss.

The void settled, but the weight of KUK's final acts lingered, a silent echo that would ripple through the multiverse long after his departure.

Note: This event occurs in the future, after the conclusion of Volume 3 of my novel.
