The Umbra's shadows twisted reality. Kaden saw echoes—past and future selves.
Lara vanished…into a memory.
Arin turned to stone.
Nyx chased shadows, laughing.
Zeno faced…his past self.
Kaden stood frozen. "What do you want?"
The Umbra's voice whispered. "Play…or lose."
Kaden smiled. "We play…together."
He drew his thread—unravelled the shadows.
Lara reappeared. Arin moved.
Nyx grinned. "Nice."
Zeno nodded…darkly.
The Umbra retreated. "Next…level."
