Chapter 357 Second Gap Crisis
Fractura Lux — Zona Tengah
One year after the Formation of the Oath Circle
A cold wind carried shimmering dust from the earth's cracks.
Jeanne stood with Joanna and the Oathbearers before a large rift that had just opened in the center of Fractura Lux. The rift towered high, surrounded by cracked, glittering earth, as if it emanated light from the dark depths within. Inside the rift, dozens of colorful energies swirled, creating a pattern that seemed to dance, captivating eyes while evoking a sense of unease.
This rift was not like the others.
The cracks expanded not only in space.
It pulsed through time.
Waves of energy were likely flowing out, creating anomalies:
Shadows of futures yet to unfold.
Reflections of forgotten pasts.
And nameless creatures — who were not Fractureborn. Around the rift, flickers of starlight moved quickly, reflecting images from Nexus Equilibria, where the balance between worlds and realities was maintained. Each time a wave of magic touched the rift, the entire area trembled, as though influenced by a greater force, creating an atmosphere that melded reality and imagination.
