Capítulo 1792: Story 1792: Inside the Unmaking
Light swallowed them whole—
then vanished.
In its place ca nothing.
Not darkness.
Not void.
Sothing worse.
A place where things that should exist didn’t… and things that shouldn’t exist whispered at the edges of awareness.
Tovin shivered violently. “I can’t see. I can’t—wait—can I feel my own eyebrows? Am I still attached to ?”
“You’re fine,” Marra muttered, though her voice trembled. “I think.”
But Erian wasn’t listening.
Because he felt sothing else.
A tug.
A pull inside his chest.
His golden thread erged from him—glowing faintly—stretched forward like a guide. Marra’s crimson thread did the sa, then Tovin’s shifting colors, then Lun’s fractured silver.
The threads drifted ahead into the swirling void, weaving themselves into a path.
The Loomchild hovered slightly above the ground—if it could even be called ground here. “Inside the Heart, this place reflects not what is… but what could break you.”
Tovin whimpered. “Oh good. A personalized nightmare maze.”
They followed the thread-path.
The world rippled.
Without warning, the environnt solidified—shifting into a vast corridor made from unraveling color. The walls pulsed with mories not their own, each flicker like the echo of a dying tiline.
Marra tensed. “Stay alert. This place is watching us.”
The corridor split into four directions.
Then, one by one, their threads tore away from the group—each yanked down a different tunnel.
Erian lunged. “NO—!”
Too late.
Each of them was pulled into their own trial.
Erian
He stumbled into a world of blinding gold.
Dozens—no, hundreds—of versions of himself stood around him. So scarred. So triumphant. So dying. So monstrous.
A voice echoed:
“You are the boy who tries to save everyone.”
A warped version of him—broken, weary—stepped forward.
“But in every world, you fail soone. Who do you choose to lose?”
Marra
She found herself in a battlefield made of rust-red threads.
Her blades were gone.
She was unard.
Weak.
Helpless.
A voice thundered:
“You fear being powerless. Forgotten. Replaceable.”
Shadows approached—blades drawn—while she had nothing.
“What do you fight with when you have nothing left?”
Tovin
He landed in a swirling storm of chaotic colors, each one sparking unpredictably.
His thread thrashed like a wild animal.
“You are unstable,” the voice mocked.
“Dangerous. A mistake waiting to happen.”
A massive version of his thread split, mutated, lashed outward.
“Prove you are more than an accident.”
Lun
They stood in a silent silver void.
Their thread—already cracked—shattered completely.
Fragnts floated around them like dying stars.
“You carry burdens not yours,” the voice whispered.
“You hide your wounds behind light.”
A shadow rose from behind them—identical in form, but darker, hollowed, incomplete.
“Face what you refuse to acknowledge.”
The Loomchild alone remained in the center chamber, trembling as the Heart’s voice echoed around them:
“ONLY THOSE WHO SURVIVE THE UNMAKING MAY REWEAVE WHAT IS BROKEN.”
They clasped their hands, praying—not to a god, but to possibility.
“Please,” they whispered.
“Hold fast to your threads.”
The Unmaking pulsed—
and the trials began.
