Talon was now in a room that was dimly lit with high-security, Talon found himself confined in an unsettling atmosphere. The room was small, with cold, gray concrete walls that seem to absorb any trace of light.

At the center of the room, a metallic chair stood isolated on a raised platform. Thick, sturdy chains descend from the ceiling, suspending Talon's hands above the chair, leaving him vulnerable and exposed.

Attached to the chair were various electrical devices, designed for interrogation purposes. Thin, metallic probes extended outward, with crackling electricity as they delivered painful shocks.

They were wires along the floor, that connected chains to the device control panel.

Then a black uniform a man stood as he pressed a remote control that was on his hands as it activated the shocks that Talon received.

Behind the interrogation chamber, a row of scientists were around a large computer monitor, as they analyzed the readings displayed on the screen.

  • Battle for Supremacy

    Talon stared at the figure in front of him. His body still felt unstable, like pieces of him were adjusting to being real again. The Echo stood calmly, its robe shifting between light and shadow, but its presence wasn’t overwhelming, it simply existed, like a constant fact. Talon’s voice was low. “You said there’s a way to bring everyone back. Tell me.” The Echo nodded once. “There is. But you can’t do it the way you are now. Your seal is unlocked, yes, but it’s incomplete. You have one half. Maelion holds the other.” Talon clenched his fists. He already suspected that; the moment Maelion snapped, he felt something tear inside his chest. “So what do I do?” The Echo lifted its hand, and five symbols appeared in the air simple shapes, glowing faintly. “These are requirements. Without all of them, reversing the Fracture is impossible.” Talon stepped closer, focus sharp. “Explain each one.” "Recover the Temporal Keystone" The first symbol was a circle with a vertical line through it

  • Happening

    A thin grey light seeped into the shelter, touching the cracked walls and the dusty ground. The air was cold, still, untouched by the sun. Talon’s temporal body brightened gradually, like a lamp warming into shape. Talon adjusted the thin band on his wrist. The watch hummed softly, its screen pulsing with dim blue light. The Echo’s earlier words still rang in his mind as the sand shifted around his feet. The watch was more than a tool. It was a stabilizer. A lifeline. Above him, the sky shimmered with that strange pale glow unique to this early age of the world, too young, too raw. Talon lifted his wrist, the watch flickering again. ‹TEMPORAL CORE LINK: ACTIVE› Kah’rin stood at the entrance, arms folded, staring into the vast pale horizon as if measuring the world’s pulse. “We leave now,” he said, not looking back.

    The Current bent ahead of him twisting, narrowing, then suddenly widening like a river about to spill into open land. Talon braced himself as the flow thickened under his feet. The air around him changed temperature, warming fast. Sand-colored light overtook the path.A pull stronger than before jerked him forward. The Temporal Current released him.Talon stumbled as his boots sank into loose earth. Heat struck him immediately. He steadied himself, blinking hard against a sun that felt too close, too bright.Before him stretched an endless desert. The sand was pale gold, almost white in some places, and wind swept across it in long, steady currents that carried dust like thin smoke. Far in the distance, jagged rocks rose like broken teeth. No structures. No roads. No sign of civilization, just a harsh, untouched world.His temporal body flickered at the edges as it adjusted to the environment. A faint vibration hummed through him.‹TEMPORAL CONSTRUCT INTEGRATION: 89%›‹WARNING: STABIL
