Entering Zeus's Dispatch Office, I braced myself for yet another stringent mission briefing. With the gravity of my new assignment clear in my mind, I knew I could not afford any missteps. The lives of countless worlds hung delicately in the balance.
Zeus regarded me with solemn eyes as he handed me a scroll. "Your mission will take you to the Crystal Universe: a world on the brink of annihilation due to the overwhelming influence of Chaos. Your primary objective is to kill a regular civilian, Jean Yellow, for either Gormeric, the Ooze of Destiny, or Shikari, the Divine Decapitator. The secondary objective is to purge the malignant force and retrieve the dangerous artifact, the Chaos Universal Nexus Tear."
Though still tormented by thoughts of Seraphina, Chloe, and Lilith, I steeled my resolve and focused on the task at hand. This was my opportunity to fight against the encroaching Chaos and prevent further loss.
