Chapter 130 – The Infinite Dawn
---
The dawn was broken.
Not the kind that marks the beginning of a day, but the kind that signaled the death of something larger, something more fundamental. Erevan stood in the remnants of the Godscript, his fingers trembling from the sheer weight of what he had just done. The Tower, once an eternal monument of control, had crumbled. The rules that had shaped reality itself were gone, and with them, the guiding hand that had steered the fates of countless lives.
The air was thick with the remnants of power. Shattered fragments of the Godscript hung like motes of dust, swirling aimlessly in the silence. Reality itself seemed to be holding its breath, as if it too were uncertain of what to become in the absence of its creators.
And Erevan?
He was not sure, either.
For the first time since he had ignited the First Flame, since the whispers of rebellion had first burned in his heart, he was alone. The Godscript was gone, the Tower's unyielding grip now nothing more than a shattered memory. But what did it all mean?
Without the Tower, without the scripts and the chains that bound the multiverse together, what was left?
Was this freedom?

Erevan walked through the void, his every step carrying the weight of countless decisions, of actions that had rewritten the course of history. The air seemed to shift around him, as if the very space he occupied was still unstable, unsure of its own existence.
His eyes scanned the empty horizon, searching for something, anything. The multiverse had been a tapestry, vibrant and endless, woven from the threads of infinite realities. Now, those threads were loose, drifting aimlessly in the cosmic winds. The fabric of creation itself had been torn apart, and Erevan had been the one to rip it.
He had destroyed the Godscript, the very foundation of existence. But what now?

"Do you truly believe you can just undo everything?"
A voice, sharp and cold, sliced through the silence.
Erevan's eyes snapped to the source of the voice, his body tensing instinctively. There, standing in the midst of the chaos, was a figure. Clad in shadows, their form barely visible, but their presence undeniable. The Reclaimer.
Her eyes glowed with an ancient, almost sorrowful intensity. She had come to stop him before, but now… now she stood before him like a force of nature, bound by laws older than the Tower itself.
"You've broken it," she said softly, her voice a mix of awe and condemnation. "The Godscript, the foundation of all things… it's gone. Do you understand what you've done?"
Erevan stood tall, despite the weight of her words. "I understand perfectly."
Her gaze deepened, searching him. "Then you understand what comes next?"
Erevan stepped forward, his voice steady but heavy with the knowledge of the road ahead. "I've broken the rules. And now, I will build something new. Something that isn't bound by the Tower, by the Godscript, by the lies of those who would control us all."
The Reclaimer took a step back, her form flickering like a dying flame. "You think you can rebuild it? You think you can write a new script? The Godscript wasn't just a set of laws. It was the fabric of existence. You can't replace that. No one can."
"I'm not replacing it," Erevan said, his words sharp with conviction. "I'm forging something new. The old world is dead. And with it, the chains that bound us. I'll build a world where we are no longer slaves to fate. A world where we make our own destinies."
The Reclaimer's eyes softened, but her expression remained one of sorrow. "You cannot rewrite the past, Erevan. No matter how much you burn away, there will always be echoes of what was. There will always be consequences. And some of them… they will follow you."
Erevan's jaw tightened, his gaze unwavering. "I'll bear whatever consequences come. As long as I can see the future we deserve."
A long silence passed between them, thick with unspoken words, with the weight of what had been lost and what had yet to come.
Finally, the Reclaimer spoke again, her voice barely a whisper. "You are not the only one who believes in freedom, Erevan. But there are others who will not accept your world. There are those who will fight for the old order, for the Tower, for the Godscript. And they will not rest until they see you undone."
Erevan's eyes darkened, a flicker of fire lighting behind his gaze. "Let them come. I'll burn their lies as well."
The Reclaimer nodded slowly, her form beginning to dissipate into the void. "The fight is far from over, Erevan. But remember this—there are no simple victories. No easy paths. You've broken the Godscript. But you've also broken the world. And the world will not forgive you easily."
With those final words, the Reclaimer vanished, leaving Erevan alone once more.

Erevan stood in the silence, his heart racing as the weight of the universe pressed down on him. The Godscript was gone. The Tower was no more. But the world? It was in chaos.
The multiverse, once neatly ordered and confined by the unyielding laws of the Godscript, was now a blank slate. The rules that had governed reality were gone, and in their place, there was only uncertainty.
And yet…
For the first time, Erevan felt free.

Author's Note:
The Godscript has been shattered, and Erevan is faced with a world that is both a blank canvas and an unraveling chaos. The journey to rebuild—or perhaps to burn it all down—is far from over.
What will Erevan do in this new, untethered reality? And what consequences will follow his bold actions?
