Floor 13 unlocked.
But the moment the first boot touched it, the system flared.
[System Alert: "Unknown Echoes Detected"][Floor 13 has been altered by external influence.][Conditions Changed: Random Event Insertion Enabled]
The map melted.
The layout changed.
The floor became… modular. A labyrinth of shifting sound, light, memory.
And in the center, not a boss.
But a mirror.
Not magical. Not special.
Just a mirror.
And it showed Ling Shu not as he was...
But as he might become.
In the reflection:
A man of flame and judgment
With a golden staff
Surrounded not by summons… but by followers
The caption read:

Ling Shu turned to his team.
They were quiet. Watching.
He placed his hand on the mirror.
And didn't look away.
