Chapter 22: Echoes of Home
With the heartbeat of the Veil restored, a newfound sense of tranquility spread through the multiverse. Hiroto, now more attuned to the Veil's mysteries, began to feel a familiar tug, a gentle pull that resonated with his very essence. It was a call from his original world, a whisper of his beginnings that he had longed for since his journey began.
Lumina, understanding Hiroto's deep longing, revealed a hidden facet of the Veil—a pathway that could lead him back to his home. However, this path was ephemeral, existing only in moments of perfect harmony within the Veil.
Hiroto faced a poignant choice: return to the life he once knew or continue his duties as a Veilwalker, safeguarding the balance of the multiverse. With heavy heart and enlightened spirit, Hiroto chose to remain, his sense of responsibility outweighing his personal desires. His decision marked a new chapter in his life, one where he embraced his role not just as a traveler but as a guardian of the cosmic balance, forever connected to the echoes of his home.
