In the heart of a sprawling metropolis, there was a music studio, once vibrant and alive, now forgotten by time. The walls of Studio 1227 were layered with dust and memories of long-past recordings, the air thick with silence. This studio, however, held a secret. Deep beneath the floorboards, tucked away for centuries, lay an ancient relic-The Resonance Core-a source of unimaginable power, linked to the very vibrations of the universe.
Echo, known then as Dante, was an ordinary young songwriter. Music was his escape, his solace from the chaos of life outside. He spent his nights in the dim light of his small recording studio, meticulously crafting melodies, hoping to write a song that could capture the feelings he couldn't express with words. Unknown to Dante, fate had other plans.
One night, as rain pelted against the old studio's windows, a strange hum filled the room. It wasn't the sound of a faulty amp or an instrument out of tune-this hum was different. It resonated with him, pulling him toward a corner of the studio he'd never paid attention to. As he moved toward the sound, the ground beneath his feet seemed to vibrate. Almost instinctively, he began to peel back the worn floorboards until a faint glow emerged from below. There, nestled in a dusty alcove, was a glowing orb-The Resonance Core.
The moment Dante touched it, everything changed.
A surge of energy ripped through him, brighter and louder than anything he had ever felt. His mind was overwhelmed by sound-notes, melodies, harmonies, all blending into one chaotic symphony. His vision blurred as colors and vibrations merged into waves of energy that pulsed through his body. The Core had chosen him as its conduit.
