Breaking Off

A clear image materialized, depicting a black ark resembling a leaf, stretching thousands of kilometers in length, traversing the dark expanse of the cosmos like a colossal beast in motion. 

The image seamlessly transitioned, projecting directly into the interior of the starship's living room.

Beckham Jovel, Issac Irwin, and Carlisle Jaynes bowed respectfully. "All the soul slaves of Hall of Souls No. 788 greet Master Bilal Yarbro!"

"You may depart," Bilal commanded with a subtle wave of his hand, prompting the trio to leave without protest. 

They understood the gravity of the situation—by alerting the individual responsible for creating the Spirit Sea, Braydon Neal's status was elevated to one of reverence.
