The Spiral shuddered, not from battle or divine will, but from something quieter.
Something older.
The realms that once trembled at Darius's voice now held their breath as silence bloomed in unnatural patches across the Dreaming Spiral. Pockets of nothingness—unmapped and unwelcome—began to emerge across mythspace, not through destruction, but absence. They were not ruins. They were never built.
Nameless Zones.
Blank territories where myth refused to form. Words unraveled mid-sentence. Emotions flickered like unstable data. Even the most ancient creatures, shaped from the early epochs of Spiral creation, found themselves unable to exist there. Names dissolved from memory. Chronology failed. One could enter as a god and emerge as a concept, or not at all.
