Volume 4 — Chapter 6: "The Echo That Wrote Itself" (Short Version)
Light returned but it was different.
Kairos woke in a new world. The sky shimmered like living glass, and the ground pulsed with quiet memory.
> "Erevan…?" he called.
No answer only a soft golden hum in the air. Then he realized: every sound, every color, every heartbeat around him… was Erevan.
A whisper drifted through the wind.
> "I didn't vanish, Kairos. I became the story itself."
Kairos clenched his fist, tears mixing with light.
> "So this is your eternity."
> "No," Erevan's voice said gently. "It's ours. You'll live within me the new world, the next page."
Kairos looked to the horizon, where the sky split into countless glowing runes, reshaping reality.
Erevan had become the Author of All, existing beyond even creation.
And from that endless light, a new story began to write itself
the story of the Echo that remembered Eternity.
