The Sea of Thalassara had settled across the sky like a brilliant cover, and days passed with a deceptive calm that hovered just beyond the reach of certainty.
Peace was there, but it was not generalized!
Not every region knew peace. In the lands of the Ancient Lineages, the air remained thick with unease. Despite the rush of power brought by the evolution into Thalassarians, despite the exuberance and transformation, the fear had not faded. It simply turned inward, into silence and watchful waiting. Because as far as they knew, the enemy- the one they feared most, the Primordial Light of Darkness, was still alive. Still watching. Still preparing.
They couldn't know that he was already gone, his body buried deep between two distant mountains, devoured and sealed away.
But this ignorance drove their caution as they prepared, many Astral Core Ascension beings rising into this Realm every day as occasionally, an Empyrean Star Nexus Transcendent being arose!
