The next moment, a smile broke across ???'s lips as he stared into the boundless nothingness surrounding him, the void itself seemingly reacting in subtle ripples to that rare expression.
"Why are you smiling?" Romulus asked, genuinely curious as to what could possibly amuse ??? at such a moment.
??? remained silent briefly before answering, "I believe that for the first time since I created you and your siblings, for the first time since endlessness itself began stretching before me, I am… excited," he stated in a calm, almost contemplative tone.
Romulus sat stunned for a fleeting moment before a faint smile curved his own lips, for he understood precisely where ??? was coming from. ??? would likely devote his attention to investigating this entity known as LORDTEE, pursuing the mystery with the same intensity he once reserved for crafting existence itself.
