2025-06-07 08:24:00The ferry’s engines thrummed beneath their feet as the Oslo skyline glinted across the steel-gray waters. Ethan Cross stood at the prow of the clandestine vessel, the bitter wind whipping ash and spray into his face. Behind him, the rest of the squad—Isla, Ari, Noah, Caulder, and Dr. Nyla Voss—sat braced against the rail, checking gear and finalizing assignments.
“Last chance to back out,” Ethan called over the din. “Once we slip through the fjord’s narrows, Voss’s fortress will be ahead. No second chances.”
Ari cracked her knuckles. “You know I’m in until my gloves turn red.”
Noah grinned. “Wouldn’t miss this for the world.”
Caulder offered a curt nod. “Let’s get this done.”
Nyla’s eyes gleamed with grim purpose. “Remember, once we’re inside, every second counts.”

Chapter 145 – The Hidden Sybil
Chrono: +9 Days Since Null CovenantLocation: Primarch Council Chamber – Citadel ApexThe Council Chamber glittered with mosaic glyphs cascading across translucent floors and ceilings. Primarchs stood in silent ritual circle, their forms shifting subtly—warping fractal light flickering in response to the Null Covenant’s activation.Seraphina entered with Elias, Orlan, and Mira. At their side hovered two guardians newly awakened—Ava-echoed and Kaito-echoed—now integrated into Nullspace-human symmetry.The air thrummed with tension.At the front of the council sat the lead Primarch, voice like distant bells.“Guardians and substituted entities, you have held the Nullseed’s covenant. You preserved divergence with purpose.”They inclined their head.“However, we have received intelligence… disturbing.”A ripple scattered across the chamber.
Chapter 144 – The Fractured Nexus
Chrono: +2 Days Since Nullspace ContainmentLocation: Citadel – Nexus Control AtriumThe Atrium’s vault lights pulsed softly in cobalt blue, reflecting off the crystalline shards embedded in Seraphina’s containment cradle. Each shard glowed dimly—four points of Nullspace held at bay by her own mind. The Memory Vault’s hum was steady, but outside its forcefield the Nexus Control Atrium throbbed with uneasy energy.Elias stood at the console, reviewing core telemetry. His jaw was tense. “Containment is stable. But look at these resonance spikes.”He pointed to a floating holomap: around Seraphina’s cradle, four translucent ripples radiated outward, intersecting at the Nexus Core itself.“If those converge…” he trailed off.Mira stepped closer, pale. “It’ll breach the vault. And then Nullspace will pour into every timeline anchor.”Behind t
Chapter 143 – Nullspace Ascension
Chrono: +7 Days Since Codex FractureLocation: Sublevel Epsilon – Gateway to NullspaceThe air in Sublevel Epsilon vibrated with reverse echoes—sound waves looping backwards, footsteps heard before made. The Citadel had carved a new corridor to Nullspace: a realm neither here nor there, a region of quantum possibility yet ordered by no earthly physics.Seraphina, Elias, Orlan, and Mira stepped through a tensile membrane of shimmering glyphs, escorted by two Primarch guardians whose forms bent through multiple frames at once—symbols of time’s infinite states.Ahead, the gateway to Nullspace pulsed blue-white. Time there flickered: a soft pink clockface ticked upside-down above it, as if reminding them that inside, memory would be the only map.They crossed the threshold—and gravity unraveled. Colors bled from edges. Air rippled like the surface of water. The Primarchs vanished; here, only humans could anch
Chapter 142 – Fractures in the Anchor Grid
Chrono: +6 Days Since the Primarch CovenantLocation: Citadel Command Deck – Level SigmaThe air crackled with static as the shard recovered from Gamma vault was slotted into the Anchor Grid array. Glyphs scrolled across the translucent interface, updating in real time as Codex fragments recalibrated against the master Codex map. The Pulse Tower at the heart of the Citadel glowed with synchronized light—until it suddenly flickered.Not just flickered—glitched.Orlan leaned over the display. “That’s not a lag. That’s a second fracture.”Seraphina’s head snapped up. “Where?”He pointed to a blinking crimson glyph.Node: Theta Prime.Status: UNSTABLEAnchor Alignment: DETERIORATINGCause: INTERNAL BREACH – UNKNOWN.Elias moved in. “Theta Prime was cleared a week ago. We ran redundancy tests. It was solid.”&ldquo
Chapter 141 – The First Trial of the Codex
Chrono: +5 days since the Primarch CovenantLocation: Citadel Archive, Sublevel GammaThe Citadel Archive Corridor hummed underfoot in constant flux, as if its very substance still babbled with old timelines. Seraphina led the team—Elias, Orlan, and two Codex operatives—through geometry that refused to stay steady: doors rising into the floor, walls reflecting empty corridors, signage looping backwards.They carried with them a crystalline beacon keyed to a Codex anchor node. It glowed blue, pulsing once per second with recursive certainty.Behind them, two Primarch guardians drifted—ethereal forms radiating calm.At the door to the Gamma Archive vault, Seraphina paused.“Flux readings are spiking,” she whispered. “That’s why we’re here.”Elias nodded. “Let’s do it.”She inserted the beacon into the reader.The vault door snapped open&m
Chapter 140 – The Arrival of the Primarchs
The world after the rift seal was no longer the same—and that was exactly the problem.Though skies were calm and the Paradox Engine still glowed faintly beneath Orpheus, a tremor ran through time itself. Echoes of collapsed loops drifted in the air like static. To the untrained eye, it appeared intact. But beneath the surface… everything vibrated with imbalance.Seraphina leaned over the Chrono-Anchor console, tracing fractal lines of recently stabilized timelines across the system display. Most showed green, a few flickered yellow, a handful—tiny shards—pulsed red.“We’re at ninety-two point three percent synchronization,” she informed Elias quietly. “Not as perfect as we hoped, but stable. For now.”Elias nodded, still drenched in aftershock. “I synchronized us. But there are gaps.” He pointed to the red shards. “These are timeline fragments I couldn’t anchor during insertio
