The semi-transparent creature, with a giant humanoid silhouette, observed his one thousand chosen ones from different parts of the universe.
As this omnipotent and omniscient existence watched them, they all cleared their minds of thoughts to hear what he had to say.
The celestial being said, beginning an explanation to the group of a thousand competitors. "The Red Expanse is a dimension where the laws you're used to don't work according to logic. Here you can't manipulate space, fly, get stronger or gain new powers or abilities.
This doesn't mean that your thousand years will pass without you absorbing opportunities. All the advances and improvements you gain here will remain sealed inside your bodies until you leave. They will be revealed as soon as you return to the worlds you came from.
A thousand years here is equivalent to about 100 years on the worlds you came from, so be prepared to encounter enemies and allies stronger than those you left behind.
