When the flames of war were brewing in the 900 million World Layers.
When Iron Fist Barry and Lord Bloodcloak together with almost 100 Lord-class Combatants were facing off against a True Demon at the crack in space.
When the Spirit of the Holy Tree Tethys and the big rooster were in the royal green room, sending the news out to the infinite worlds.
When Triste came and left just as quick.
Gu Qing Shan and Laura were still in Triste's collection world------ which was inside the giant 12-layer cake on the table in the royal green room.
At this time, in Triste's world.
At the foot of the ice mountain.
Gu Qing Shan silently stared at the layer of ice beneath him.
Below the thick ice, you could see blood slowly being mixed into clear blue water.
This was the sign of death.
A lifeform created by the Old Gods had just died.
But it was a living creature, a sentient being.
