"Daddy... you've been acting quite mysterious for nearly two weeks now." Aurora said as she stuffed some pastries in her mouth.
They floated together in the vast, silent void between universes.
A wide, circular platform of warm white marble hovered beneath them.
A low table of polished black adamant sat in the center, laden with trays of golden pastries dusted with sugar, bowls of fruits, delicate cups of tea... well Ash was having wine and small plates of honey-glazed cakes.
Around them, the void stretched endlessly—distant universes glowing like distant lanterns... But, directly in front of them hovered a massive projection, much like the one they were watching back at the Vossmere's.
In one corner of the view, Nia moved through a collapsing universe like a living supernova.
Multicolored flames roared around her in a perfect sphere—every galaxy, world, and star that dared.... to even exist vanished into her Devourance without sound or struggle.
