It had been about a month since Zion finished his training with the twin goddesses. During that time, he kept to himself, not engaging with anyone, even Tessa and Aryah.
While his body had physically healed, his mind was still going through a tough time. But it wasn't what you would assume.
While his mind did break after being exposed to a higher level of existence and being forced to fill their shoes, even for a little bit, what really made him feel broken was what he learned about the universe.
His world, his old world, Earth, was just one of trillions of planets that happened to be overrun by monsters.
Zion learned that every world has a will, a heaven and hell, as well as a monster realm that is connected to it. However, not every world has gods to govern it. This meant that if something existed in the world, its Will would try its best to protect it, even if it was to the extreme.
