The moment the shared current connected fully to both brothers, the entire world reacted.Eron felt it first, not as pain but as weight.Millions of emotions surged through the network at once, pouring into him harder than ever before. Fear of collapsing cities. Exhaustion from survivors struggling to hold broken communities together. Grief from families already destroyed by the catastrophe, but alongside all of it came something else: trust.Humanity was still holding onto hope, even now. Kael staggered beside him as the same flood hit through the current. The fractures spreading beneath his skin brighten violently before stabilising slightly under the shared connection.The living intelligence inside the extinction weapon pulsed with shifting light.“Joint synchronisation initiating.”The creator stepped back cautiously. “You must stabilise the emotional flow,” it warned. “If the current becomes unbalanced, the system may collapse both of you into the core permanently.”Tavin rubbed

The moment the extinction weapon began shutting down, the heavens changed, not instantly, not cleanly. The collapse had progressed too far for an immediate recovery, but for the first time since the catastrophe began, the world stopped deteriorating every second.Inside the synchronisation core, Eron felt the shift move through the rewritten seal, like a massive breath released after unbearable pressure. The violent energy tearing through the divine realm weakened gradually while the old system structures lost authority one by one.The living intelligence spoke again, but its voice no longer sounded cold. “Correction sequence interrupted"Kael nearly collapsed beside him, but Eron caught him immediately. The strain of rewriting the seal had drained both of them almost beyond their limits, but Kael looked worse. The glowing fractures across his skin still remained, though dimmer now than before.Eron tightened his grip on him. “Stay awake.”Kael gave a weary breath that almost sounded

The heavens were filled with gods; they descended through the fractured sky like falling stars, but there was nothing beautiful about the sight anymore. Their divine forms flickered with instability while cracks of fading light spread across their bodies; some looked wounded, some looked terrified, and others looked furious enough to tear reality apart themselves.Eron felt the pressure of their arrival hit the shared current immediately. Across the world below, humanity sensed it too. Fear spread through the network, not the helpless fear people once felt toward untouchable gods; this fear felt different now, uncertain and defiant.The world had already seen the heavens bleed. That changed everything. Kael stepped slightly forward beside Eron while the rewritten seal pulsed above them, and the surviving god who had confronted them earlier lowered its head briefly.“They came faster than expected.” The god said.Tavin looked upward nervously. “How many gods are left exactly?”The crea

The panic hit the shared current like a tidal wave; Eron nearly lost his balance from the force of it. Thousands of human emotions crashed through the connection all at once. Terror. Rage. Confusion. Desperation.Below the fractured heavens, one of the largest holy cities in the world had erupted into chaos.Kael steadied Eron immediately. “What is happening?”Eron pressed one hand against his chest as he tried to separate the emotions flooding through him.“People are fighting,” he said tightly. “The churches are losing control.”The surviving gods exchanged uneasy looks.One of them spoke quietly. “It begins.”Tavin frowned sharply. “What does that mean?”The god looked towards the world below. “When certainty dies, fear replaces it.”Another violent pulse moved through the current. This time Eron saw fragments: massive crowds gathered in cathedral squares while religious leaders screamed conflicting declarations from broken temple balconies. Some clergy begged people to stay calm.

The voice rising from the world core did not sound human; it did not sound divine either. The sound moved through the fractured foundation beneath reality like ancient stone grinding against itself.“Kael.”The core pulsed violently, massive streams of energy shifted around the endless structure while cracks continued spreading through the foundation of existence itself.Eron stepped closer beside Kael immediately. “You know that voice?”Kael remained still for several seconds, then he answered quietly. “Yes.”The answer unsettled Eron instantly because Kael rarely sounded uncertain anymore; now, something deeper moved beneath his calm expression: recognition and memory.The living ocean of light beneath them surged again. Ancient structures hidden inside the world's core slowly became visible through the instability.Eron stared at them carefully. “What are those?”Kael’s eyes stayed fixed on the distant structures. “The first prisons"Eron frowned slightly. “For what?”Kael hesitate
