Something is off.
A deep voice echoed from beyond the gate.
"Approach, challenger. Step into the domain of fate."
Aiden stepped forward.
And the moment his foot touched the thresholdโ
โ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐โ!
The world disappeared.
Trial of the Fifth GateโThe Trial of Fate
Aiden blinked.
He was no longer on the Divine Ladder.
He stood in a place that defied reality.
Floating islands, suspended in endless darkness. Shattered ruins drifting in a sky with no stars, no sun.
And at the center of it allโ
A throne.
A massive, ancient throne carved from celestial stone, hovering in midair. Golden threads of fate spun around it, weaving intricate patterns of destiny.
And seated upon itโ
A man draped in white robes, his face obscured by a hood.
In his hands, he held a golden book.
Aiden instantly knew who this was.
The Fifth Gate KeeperโThe Arbiter of Fate
