Primordial Expanse: I have the Strongest Talent!

In a future where humanity has already conquered the galaxy, a whole new realm of mystery and horrors beyond human comprehension opens up to them, the Primordial Expanse. For as long as he could remember, Alex worked in the mines of an asteroid so desolate it didn't even have a name. But to him, this was home. He knew that his future held nothing for him and he would die a lonely and forgotten death just like everyone else stuck on this godforsaken rock. That was, until one day he wakes up to the realisation that he would die soon, as the Primordial Expanse called for him. This mysterious realm is a place of promise and opportunity for many, but for people from the slums of society like Alex, it was only a curse that almost always guaranteed death. Follow Alex on his journey though the Primordial Expanse as he navigates his way through battles, trials and enemies to carve out a space for himself at the peak of the universe. *** [WSA 2024] This novel is purely a work of fiction, any names, locations and characters are all made up and do not depict or represent the real world.

Don't look

In the centre of the chamber, a stone altar stood, covered in ancient symbols. A flickering torch, half-burnt, lay on the ground nearby, providing the only light.

Alex picked it up, grateful for the illumination.

'An altar of some sorts? Why would The Whisperer be here? What are the examiners planning with this test? What does this have to do with strategy?'

Alex's mind raced with questions as he was just left even more confused, wondering why he was led to this place.

With nothing else to go off of, he could only do the sensible thing and examine the altar at the centre.

But not before checking for any traps, obviously.

Clank!

He dislodged a loose stone from one of the chamber's walls, and tossed it at the altar in the centre, careful not to damage any of the symbols on the sides.

With the lack of any reaction, he still wasn't sure there weren't any traps, but it was better than nothing.
