The forces of the Imperium of Time finally reached the dominion of Calypso. There, a Dark Tree immediately unfurled its monstrous roots, manifesting the world's energy and channeling it into their bodies. The ArchDeities felt the surge of power, yet their faces remained somber. None of them celebrated.
