I walked out of Amara’s hideaway before thinking through a few options. For starters, capturing the Overseer required a few checkmarks on an unseen checklist. Hiding the Overseer and its abduction stood out for starters, as I didn’t want to make an enemy of Elysium again. After detaining the twisted Overseer, finding a place to keep him wasn’t an issue at least. I could just swipe him into my pocket dimension. Disguising that process required several elements. Understanding Schema’s and…-

I finished my cities for the day, closing in on the border of the Great Lakes. The colossal expanses of water could’ve been mistaken for oceans, their dominance of the landscape absolute. I flew over them for a while, having an aerial view of the blue expanses. They took my breath away when the sun shone off their calm waters, and I took longer getting back to Mt. Verner than I needed to. Eh, sometimes a slow drive was worth it. After our familiar mountain base came into view, the differences my…

Obolis closed his warp before peering out at the horizon, the distant clouds drifting. The Emperor gave it a nod, “It would seem your planet is fairing well. It’s quite an attractive place, I must say.” I stared with him, “It is…What are you here for?” “As always, you’re down to business as usual, not that I dislike such a thing. I’ve come here to discuss the deal along with a few future offers for you if you’re interested.” I blinked, “I might not be, but we’ll…

The scarred farmer pointed at the hole in the wall, “Uhm…Can you fix it? You look stout enough.” I scoffed, “When I’m done with this place, fixing this wall will be the least of your worries.” Their faces paled, each of them terrified of what I might do. I spread the Rise of Eden over them once more while raising a fist, “You’ll never be forced to fight an eldritch again.” The villagers trembled despite the aura’s stat raise, some cowering away. I raised my eyebrow at them…

“You’re dismissed. I’m heading out.” He rose his brow under his dark mask, “Where exactly are you off to?” Quintessence suffused my surroundings in an unbridled wave, “I’m going to go do some hands-on expansion real quick.” I smiled, “We need some more cities.” Helios furrowed his brow, “You intend on doing so where, exactly? And what’s the method you’ll use? Perhaps you haven’t considered the law systems each place will need or how to manage the various…

I gave him a slow nod, “There’s one issue that’s still popping out to me.” Plazia lowered his arms, “What would that be?” I pointed at the pile of unconscious people, “Uhm, they can die at any point. Exposure, roaming eldritch, the sun drying them out. Honestly, there’s a lot of ways for them to meet the reaper right now.” Before my words left my mouth, a group of metallic spiders crawled from the barren dirt. Their dark gray exoskeletons sheened red, and the eyes glowed a bright…

I gripped my hands into fists, “Not if I carry the keys to connect those worlds. I’ll have to figure out how Schema’s holding me down and stopping my abilities. At the same time, I’ll need to know how to use primordial magic and well. You’ll be helping me, Plazia. You’ll be my tutor, and we’ll cross these limits Schema imposed on me.” I raised a hand, primordial mana oozing out of my palm. The dense streaks crystallized on the floor like dark blue gems, “And we’ll be doing it…

I split the primordial sphere into two parts, each of them writhing out. My anger turned into skepticism, and my eyes turned to slits. I raised an eyebrow at the orbs, “Huh…The timing for this is convenient for you, isn’t it?” Plazia gestured to the edge of our Schema-less domain, “Try and call for the primordial mana outside of this place. That will verify everything you’ve seen for yourself.” I paced over towards the edge of the wall, finding a spot without cipher sigils. I melted out…

Mana sparked into my palm, and I reached into the dimensional space of the ring. Helios crossed his arms, “It could be dangerous for you to extend into that domain.” I suppressed a grin while murmuring, “I’m a multiverse. This space can’t do anything to me.” Torix’s fire dimmed, “That…That does seem rather intuitive.” Helios sneered, “Excuse me for advising caution then.” Too busy to engage, I searched through the dimensional ring. This always reminded me of looking…

Landing amidst the peaceful chaos, I walked by buildings and cars. I hadn’t looked through my past and old streets in a long time, and the differences staggered me. Vines, weeds, and trees grew out of every nook and cranny of my old hometown. The windows dirtied or decayed, turning into shining shambles. Even the sky overhead cleared up since all the cars left, and it contrasted my memories of this place like night and day. I changed as well. I stood over twice as tall as cars, my feet having expanded…
