A thousand years passed.
Peace endured.
The kingdoms founded by Queen Aria and King Kael had become legends whispered across countless worlds.
The Sea of Threads no longer needed guardians.
Every civilization was free to shape its own future.
New stars were born.
New worlds flourished.
Explorers traveled farther than anyone had ever imagined.
One such expedition journeyed beyond the edge of the mapped multiverse.
Their mission was simple.
Discover what lay beyond the Infinite Frontier.
No ship had ever returned from there.
Captain Elian Solis stood on the bridge of the exploration vessel Aurora Dawn.
Its crew represented dozens of civilizations united by curiosity rather than conquest.
As they crossed the final beacon, every navigation system failed.
The stars disappeared.
