Forge Emperor Niso waved his hands with a gesture of absolute authority, and the two of them instantly disappeared from the beach environment.
When they reappeared, they found themselves inside grand structure...walking through hall lined with white and gold marble that opened into massive room equipped with advanced technological apparatus that blended seamlessly with more mystical implements.
The room contained numerous radiant blank screens currently in standby mode, with Early Creatures and Living Emotives moving purposefully about as they prepared equipment and verified operational parameters.
At this moment, eight other entities possessing similar stature to Forge Emperor Niso had already arrived, each accompanied by single Early Creature measuring few Sextillions in Complexity and Purity.
All candidates stood in orderly formation before an Early Creature wearing pristine white laboratory coat whose body pulsed with unmistakable Civilizational Authority of Concept!
