James sat at his desk, his forehead creased as he read through a series of reports. As Dana had expected, there were signs that numerous shields across almost all testing fields had been silently disabled. Or rather, they had been overcome with such power that they had been entirely erased. “This is too much for a natural occurrence, but also…” James knew that there was likely to be some level of sabotage within the shields, otherwise they would have not experienced such widespread failure. For…-

After James left, Leowynn soon arrived, having followed the traces of the void back to Tsubaki’s room. When she entered, she noted the pile of dust built up in one corner, and looked at it strangely. Obviously, she was able to sense that the void traces ended at the dust pile, and that the creature it had once been was very much dead. “Do I want to know?” She asked, turning to look at Dana and Tsubaki, who were standing nearby. As Tsubaki had previously destroyed all the furnishings in the room,…

Tsubaki listened to Dana’s pleas, hearing her mention the details of the memetic entity that had attached itself to her. Understanding that she should not press for more, she simply gave a firm nod of her head, turning and walking down the hall. As much as she wanted to be there for Dana right now, her presence would more than likely be detrimental to her friend’s survival. Lady Leowynn, your presence is urgently requested within the Void Manipulation Research Center. Tsubaki prayed with all her…

Tsubaki stood alone within a large, metal arena, her eyes closed as she was focusing. By this point, five years had passed since she was assigned to work with James on comprehending the use of the void’s energy. Her tails lit up, one by one, as energy began flowing along her skin. When this energy reached her right hand, it came together and congregated on her index finger. The kitsune woman stretched out her hand, poking against the empty space and leaving behind that energy that had gathered. The…

Closing my eyes, I leaned back in my seat within the Admin Room. With the stage the world was in right now, there was not that much for me to personally handle. Rather, there were numerous projects that I could only wait for completion. Unfortunately, most of these projects rested on the shoulders of the former Keeper, making me feel as if I may be working him a bit too hard. As such, I allowed time to progress rapidly within the world, waiting to see the results of the various changes that had been…

The effect of Aurivy’s announcement could be immediately seen within the world. Dozens of gods chose to use this time to investigate. They wished to see for themselves just what the ‘Divine Realm’ was like, rather than accept it at face value. Within a deep forest, next to a gentle brook, two halflings appeared. These were Thessa and Theon Grid, a pair of sibling gods. Although Theon had not made much of a name for himself outside of Fyor, many people would naturally recognize his sister, as she…

It had taken roughly one week for the invasion to end. However, the results of the attack would undoubtedly be felt for quite a while to come. The concept of being attacked by hostile forces was nothing new to the people of the world, as they had been through it throughout the generations. Naturally, this was the first time that they experienced it personally, but there were still records and stories from their ancestors. And that had been all that it was, stories told of an age long past. Most…

After talking with Terra, and seeing how the others had created this new planet, I only had to wait for about an hour before Ashley returned to the Admin Room. When she did, I saw that she had a somewhat exhausted look on her face, prompting me to ask what she had discovered. “Nothing.” She begrudgingly answered, shaking her head and sitting down on the couch. “At least, nothing helpful.” “Was it all unusable?” I questioned, moving to sit next to her. There had been so much wreckage from…

Within the God-Queen’s palace of Deckan, the incarnations of the gods were observing one another. The connections to their deities had been restored, and thus they were aware that the battle had concluded. For most of them, that meant that they were preparing to leave. However, there was one girl that immediately ran to another room, shoving the door open and lunging at its occupant. Julia blinked in surprise as she was tackled by Aurivy, the girl’s arms shuddering as they wrapped around her. After…

After leaving Dana and Tsubaki with their new missions, I contemplated what I had experienced in this recent invasion. Part of me felt as if I was on the right track with regards to my strategy, where I forced the other party to participate in a special game of my own creation. However, the fact of the matter was that the game was too rushed and unrefined, leaving it such that I wasn’t able to find them with this method before it was too late. In the future, it might become a plausible defensive…
