Echoes of Divinity

As they appeared in a world unlike anything Avery had ever seen, the mastermind turned to her, his eyes sparkling with an inhuman brightness. 

 

" Welcome, Avery Chen," he replied," to the place where gods are made." 

 

Avery took a deep breath, bracing herself for whatever happened next. She had made her choice. There was no going back now. 

 

The fate of Blackthorn, and perhaps the entire globe, was now in her hands. 

 

Avery blinked, her eyes matching the ethereal brilliance that seemed to emanate from every face. The area around her defied description, with swirling shades of light and shadow that changed with each passing second. 

 

"What's this place?" She breathed, her voice barely higher than a tale. 

 

The architect's lips curled into an enigmatic smile."This is the Nexus, my dear." "The intersection of realities, where the fabric of reality is woven and unmade."
