Chapter 203: The Infiltration Begins
Chapter 203 – The Infiltration Begins
Eric, Shadeva, Ester, and Sari reappeared in the same dark cave Noah had once fallen into.
And as they turned to take in their surroundings, they all felt it—the same impression Noah had described. There were no clear walls, no ground, no ceiling. Only... shadows.

The ground beneath them, the cavern’s ceiling above, the air around—it was all composed of shadowstuff, ever-shifting, ever-pulsating with life. And if you looked closely—truly looked—you’d notice the subtle movement. A slow, imperceptible dance.
It was unnerving.

And in a way... it was.
