Rohan recognized a symbol within the cosmic mandala - a stylized lotus flower, a representation of Dwara Yuga, the age of righteousness. A surge of adrenaline coursed through him. "The answer lies in the transitions," he exclaimed, his voice filled with newfound certainty. "The puzzles tested our knowledge of each Yuga, but the final one asks us to understand the bridges between them, the moments of change."Anya, her eyes lighting up with comprehension, began furiously typing on her keyboard. She wrote a complex code, weaving together references to historical events that marked the end of one Yuga and the beginning of the next. As she finished, the mandala shimmered, the vibrant colors intensifying for a moment before fading to reveal a single, pulsating point of light."The access point," Maya breathed, her voice filled with awe.With a shared look of determination, they turned to Rohan. The VR headset, the key to their virtual infiltration, lay on the table. This time, however, the weight of responsibility felt different. They had cracked the backdoor, solved the puzzles, and now, Rohan was about to step through the digital threshold into the heart of Project Yugantar."Be careful," Veer cautioned, placing a hand on Rohan's shoulder. "We don't know what awaits you in there. Stay focused, and if anything feels wrong, don't hesitate to pull out."Rohan nodded, taking a deep breath. He knew the risks, the potential dangers that lurked within the digital unknown. But the weight of their mission, the potential to avert a catastrophe, propelled him forward.He donned the VR headset, the familiar weight a grounding presence. As Anya initiated the connection, a kaleidoscope of colors and code flooded his vision. Then, with a rush, the digital world solidified around him.He found himself standing in a vast, sterile chamber, devoid of any windows or natural light. Rows upon rows of blinking servers hummed ominously, their rhythmic whirring the only sound that broke the silence. In the center of the chamber, a colossal machine pulsed with an otherworldly glow – a swirling vortex of energy that seemed to defy the laws of physics.Rohan cautiously approached the machine, its power radiating a tangible heat. As he drew closer, a holographic display flickered to life, revealing a man with a stern expression and piercing blue eyes."Welcome, Dharmrakshak," the man's voice boomed, echoing through the chamber. "You have come a long way."Rohan's heart hammered against his ribs. This was no ordinary recording; it felt like the man was present within the chamber, observing him. "Who are you?" he stammered, his voice barely a whisper."I am the architect," the man replied, "the creator of VYOM and the guardian of the Yugas."A wave of confusion washed over Rohan. The architect? Guardian of the Yugas? It all seemed so outlandish, yet the man's presence here, within the heart of Project Yugantar, lent credence to his words."The malfunctions, the glitches in VYOM," Rohan pressed, his voice gaining strength. "What are they?"The architect's expression remained stoic. "A consequence," he said. "A necessary consequence to mend a tear in the fabric of reality."Rohan's mind reeled. A tear in reality? Was that what the voice in Kali Yuga was referring to? "What tear? What do you mean?"The architect sighed, a sound that crackled like static electricity. "The boundaries between the Yugas are weakening. The veil that separates them is fraying at the edges. My creation, VYOM, is a bridge, a conduit between these eras. But its existence has inadvertently created a vulnerability."Understanding dawned on Rohan. The glitches, the strange occurrences within VYOM - they weren't malfunctions; they were symptoms of a deeper problem, a tear in the very fabric of time itself. DevaCorp, through Project Yugantar, had created a bridge between the Yugas, but they hadn't anticipated the consequences."How do we fix it?" Rohan asked, a desperate urgency creeping into his voice. "How do we stop the Yugas from collapsing?"The architect's gaze seemed to bore into Rohan's soul. "The answer lies within yourself, Dharmrakshak," he said. "You have the knowledge, the potential. But the path is fraught with danger."The holographic image flickered and began to fade. "Remember, Dharmrakshak," the architect's voice echoed for a final time, "the fate of the Yugas rests in your hands."With a final hiss, the holographic display shut down, plunging the chamber back into an eerie silence
