History remembers the impossible.
Kai triggers the device fully.
The activation is the specific completion of something that has been building since before the ruins — the device at the scale of its full capability, the Direwolf blood rune connection to the ley-lines running at the maximum the runes were built to carry, the divine resonance from the months of Eros's proximity running at the frequency the resonance was built to carry, and the mortal mortality — the specific energy of a finite life at the complete investment of its capacity in a specific direction at the specific moment — running at the only scale it can run at when it's running fully.
Complete.
The divine channels collapse.
