Chapter 42: The Well's Revelation

The whisper in Kael's mind had become a constant presence, its tone shifting between urgency and calm. It was no longer just a voice—it was a guide, a source of knowledge that seemed to grow stronger with each passing day. As the group prepared to track down the next echo, Kael decided to embrace it rather than fight it.

During a quiet moment in the Celestial Nexus, Kael closed his eyes and focused on the whisper. "What are you trying to tell me?" he asked silently.

The whisper responded, its voice clearer than ever. "**The echoes are not just fragments of the Eclipse's power. They are seeds of a greater threat—a being known as the **Voidborn**, a force of pure entropy that seeks to consume all of existence.**"

Kael's eyes snapped open, his heart racing. He quickly gathered the group and shared what he had learned. Lyra's expression was grim. "If the Voidborn is real, then the echoes are just the beginning. We need to find a way to stop it before it awakens."

Eryndor's form shimmered as he spoke. "**The Voidborn is a being of legend, said to exist outside the bounds of reality. If it is awakening, then the multiverse is in grave danger.**"

Aegis's mechanical voice rumbled. "**We must find a way to track it. The Entropy Compass may not be enough.**"

Kael nodded, his resolve hardening. "Then we need to find someone who knows more about the Voidborn. Someone who has faced it before."

The group's journey took them to the **Archives of the Forgotten**, a place said to hold the knowledge of beings who had battled the Voidborn in ages past. The Archives were located in a realm of endless twilight, its sky a swirling mass of purple and gold.

As they entered the Archives, they were confronted by its guardian, a being of pure light. "**You seek knowledge of the Voidborn,**" it said, its voice echoing through the chamber. "**But such knowledge comes at a price.**"

Kael stepped forward, his body glowing with the Well's energy. "We need to stop the Voidborn. Whatever the price, we'll pay it."

The guardian studied him for a moment, its gaze piercing. "**Very well. But know this—the knowledge you seek will change you. It will reveal truths you may not be ready to face.**"
