Rufus stood silently before the sphere.

The bridge between the two worlds was still open.

People were crossing.

Some carefully.

Some with fear.

Others with curiosity.

But Rufus could no longer focus on them.

He kept thinking about the red eyes.

The voice.

The vision of himself wearing a crown.

And the city that had been destroyed.

Tina stepped closer.

“You said you understood.”

Rufus nodded.

“I thought I did.”

“What changed?”

Rufus looked at the sphere.

“There was another world.”

    The collision between Rufus and the masked man shook the bridge.Fire and darkness exploded outward.Rufus was pushed backward.His feet slid across the glowing path.The masked man did not move.Rufus raised his hand again.The seven powers gathered around him.The masked man smiled.“You still think power will defeat me.”Rufus looked at him.“No.”He tightened his fist.“I've learned that lesson.”The masked man attacked.A black blade formed in his hand.He crossed the distance between them in an instant.Rufus blocked the strike with a golden shield.The impact sent a shockwave across the bridge.Rufus moved to the side.The masked man followed.Rufus struck with fire.The man avoided it.Water followed.Then green energy.Then light.The masked man moved between every attack.He was not simply powerful.He knew Rufus.Every movement Rufus made seemed familiar to him.Rufus realized why.“You've fought me before.”The masked man stopped.“Yes.”“When?”“Before you forgot.”Rufus'

    The bridge of light stretched through the darkness.It was no longer a throne.There was no crown.No ruler.No single person controlling it.The seven powers had formed something completely different.A path.Rufus stood at its beginning and watched it connect the human world to the Infinite Forest.For several seconds, nobody spoke.Then the first traveler smiled.“It worked.”Rufus looked at her.“Is it stable?”“For now.”Vikram walked toward the bridge.“How long is ‘for now’?”The first traveler shook her head.“That depends on what happens next.”Rodri sighed.“That sounds like something we should worry about.”One of the dwarves nodded.“I agree.”Rufus looked at the bridge.“What happens next?”The first traveler pointed toward the far end.“People choose.”Rufus frowned.“They already started choosing.”“Yes.”“But the bridge is still unstable.”“It is unstable because the worlds have not learned how to exist together.”Kael stepped forward.“Then we need to help them.”Mira

    The black throne stood at the end of the chamber.It was larger than the Throne of the Six.Its surface looked like black stone, but darkness moved beneath it as if something was trapped inside.Rufus stared at it.He remembered seeing it before.Not in a dream.Not in a forgotten memory.He had been here.Long ago.The crowned figure stood beside the throne.“You finally returned.”Rufus tightened his fists.“I didn't return for you.”The figure laughed.“You still don't understand.”Tina stepped beside Rufus.“Then explain.”The crowned figure looked at her.“You are not part of this.”Rufus immediately stepped in front of her.“She stays.”The figure smiled.“That is exactly why you were always weak.”Rufus's eyes narrowed.“What did you say?”“You care about others.”The figure looked toward Kael, Mira, Vikram, Clovis, Rodri, the dwarves, Aron, the ancient King, and the others.“You carry their fears.”“You carry their memories.”“You carry their lives.”The figure pointed toward

    Rufus fell.There was no ground beneath him.No sky.No light.Only darkness.He reached for Tina.His fingers touched hers for a moment.Then they separated.“Rufus!”Her voice disappeared above him.He continued falling.The seven powers inside his body reacted immediately.Fire burned.Water moved.Nature spread.Darkness surrounded him.Light flashed.Gold pulled him upward.The seventh power tried to stop the fall.But something was stronger.Rufus looked down.Two enormous white eyes stared back at him.The same voice echoed through the darkness.“You finally remembered.”Rufus stopped falling.He was floating.The white eyes were far below him.Rufus raised his hand.“Who are you?”The voice answered.“You.”Rufus frowned.“That isn't possible.”“It is.”The darkness shifted.A figure began rising toward him.At first Rufus saw only a shadow.Then the shape became clearer.It was a man.He looked exactly like Rufus.But older.Much older.His hair was white.His face carried sc

    The black doorway stood before Rufus.Nothing moved inside it.No light.No sound.Only darkness.Rufus took one step forward.The moment his foot crossed the doorway, the seven powers around him became silent.The fire disappeared.The water became still.The green energy stopped moving.Even the golden light faded.Rufus looked around.He was standing on a road.But there was no sky.No sun.No stars.Above him was endless darkness.The road stretched into the distance, surrounded by broken pieces of stone that floated in the air.Tina stepped through behind him.Her eyes widened.“This place is strange.”Rufus nodded.“It feels familiar.”Clovis entered next.The moment he saw the road, his face changed.Rufus noticed.“You know this place.”Clovis slowly nodded.“I've been here before.”Vikram stepped through.He looked around.“So have I.”Rufus turned.“You remember?”Vikram frowned.“I remember pieces.”The ancient King stepped through last.He looked toward the darkness above.
