đ Scene 1: The Aftershock of Truth
Jemil sat on the edge of the floating cliff inside his Eternal Homeworld, letting the weight of the Herald's words sink in.
He was the Resonant Core â the ancient being who unknowingly created the mythical wives bonded to him. Not just a summoner⊠but a source.
Behind him, Flare and Mira were arguing again.
"Technically," Mira said, "if he created us, shouldn't he be taking our last names?"
Flare rolled her eyes. "We don't even have last names!"
Kaelira, floating lazily nearby, stirred her tea with a spoon made of chaos energy. "I think I should marry him twice. You know, once for the summoner side, once for the god-forge side."
Jemil sighed. "Can we not make this weirder than it already is?"
From behind, Nyxalithe's voice was cold and low.
"It's going to get weirder."
She hovered above a pool of darkness in the center of the Homeworld â where a glowing spire now pulsed.
