Isaac exited the subdimension within the Soulbind Pendant and reappeared in the quiet living room of his house.
The lights were off, save for the faint glow from a corner crystal lamp.
It was still dark out, but Isaac didn't feel tired.
He stepped outside.
The air was crisp, and cold.
The moment he reached the farm, he held the Terraheart Plow and dragged it forward.
As the blade cut into the soil, something shifted.
There was no bright light. No dramatic sound. But Isaac felt it.
The land breathed.
His grip tightened on the plow.
"What is this…?"
The land looked the same, but he could feel the difference.
His Sovereign of Land ability was reacting to the changes.
The soil hadn't just become more fertile—it felt alive in a way it never had before. As if the land itself had awakened.
There was a pulsing under the surface.
A heartbeat.
He paused.
Was the land… calling to something?
