The Gate of Ages

The world changed on the day the first Gate appeared. A massive, swirling vortex of energy erupted in the heart of New York City, towering over the skyline. It was unlike anything humanity had ever seen—a shimmering doorway to the unknown, pulsing with a power that seemed to defy the laws of physics. Within days, similar gates began appearing around the globe, from the Amazon rainforest to the Siberian tundra. Scientists were baffled, governments were alarmed, and the military mobilized. These Gates, as they came to be known, allowed only a limited number of people to pass through at any given time, depending on the "level" of the Gate. The world quickly learned that beyond these portals lay realms filled with monsters, creatures straight out of ancient legends and nightmares. The monsters were deadly, their strength and ferocity determined by the disaster level of the Gate they guarded. But those who managed to defeat them found treasures of immense value—items of great power and utility, and most importantly, the Crystals.

Chapter 22: The Council of Unity

In the wake of the fall of Arcanis, Terra Novum's remaining factions convened a historic gathering known as the Council of Unity. This council was an attempt to forge a unified front against the Union's advancing forces and to address the growing threat to the world's stability.

The Council of Unity brought together representatives from various kingdoms, empires, and resistance groups. The goal was to create a cohesive strategy to counter the Union and to address the internal divisions that had plagued the world during the conflict. The council was a platform for diplomacy, negotiation, and alliance-building.

The discussions at the council were fraught with tension and disagreement. The diverse factions had different agendas and priorities, and finding common ground was challenging. However, the shared goal of resisting the Union provided a basis for cooperation.

Key issues discussed at the council included the coordination of military efforts, the allocation of resources, and the establishment of a unified command structure. The council also addressed the need for a political and diplomatic strategy to counter the Union's influence and to rally support from neutral or undecided factions.

The Council of Unity ultimately succeeded in creating a more coordinated and unified response to the Union. The participating factions agreed on a joint military campaign and a series of diplomatic initiatives to undermine the Union's position. The council's decisions marked a new phase in the conflict, with the formation of a more organized and effective resistance.
