Chapter 3- The Night of Death
A whole century ago, in the world of Terra, which was brimming with modern technology, AI advancement, and a medically enhanced society, several hundreds of gates suddenly arrived all over the world.
Their shapes resembled carved stones from ancient ruins, completely closed yet big enough to reach the height of a three-story building, hovering 50 feet above the ground.
Deserts, oceans, and metropolitan cities—every place had a gate above it.
The distance between the gates was more than five hundred miles, yet their organized patterns made humanity feel both curious and threatened.
Then, science itself started to fail.
The known laws of physics and biology began to shift. It was like something out of a fantasy novel. A strange energy, unknown to Earth, began leaking from every gate, slowly mixing with the planet's natural forces.
It changed the world.
But the effects were slow. For years, nothing major happened.
Then, people who should have died in terrible accidents—electrocution, radiation, fire—started to survive.
Not just survive, but come back... changed.
They had powers.
