Chapter 767 Shielding Halo
In the timeless chamber where the air vibrated with the weight of eons, the Council of Forgers convened in silence, their collective presence pondering Captain Ilsa's impassioned plea.
The ethereal light that filled the space seemed to pulse, reflecting the gravity of the discussion that unfolded beyond the perception of the human visitors.
After moments that stretched like lifetimes, the Council's voice filled the chamber once again, resonant and profound, yet carrying a note of finality that doused the spark of hope that had been kindled in Captain Ilsa and her team.
"Captain Ilsa, your plea, while earnest, overlooks the broader tapestry of cosmic balance," the Council intoned. "The technologies we oversee are not mere tools to be wielded in the conflicts of the moment. They were forged in the crucible of creation, bound by protocols that govern the very fabric of existence."
