In an unknown corner in the depths of the spirit world, where an ocean churned from the brilliant stars and seven moons cast their pale glow upon its black surface, a powerful Transcendent entity slumbered.
This entity, made entirely of a swirling mass of writhing tentacles, one single colossal eye, and a gaping maw vast enough to swallow a city whole, slept in the depths of this dark ocean.
Within the stomach of this otherworldly abomination, a human figure lay unconscious, his body slowly corroded by acid as fleshy tendrils coiled tightly around his limbs and torso.
Adam saw no way to slay this monster and free himself from its stomach. He was but a mere Mana Vortex Magus, while the abomination that had swallowed him was likely a Transcendent being, an entity three realms beyond his reach.
How could he even hope to defeat such a creature?
There was no way.
No way at all.
