Chapter 106: Little Experiment

In comparison, his own Soul Stream felt barren. A vast, black sea illuminated only by a solitary crimson sun, devoid of movement or life. He’d often wondered why his inner world had taken such a form. Maybe it was connected to his Divine Echo, some unknown aspect he had yet to uncover. Or perhaps the answer lay hidden within his Soul Name.
