This chapter introduces Vael'Tharos, the primordial consciousness of gravity itself-an eternal, unmoving force that predates gods and civilizations. He does not conquer through wrath, but through inevitability, shaping mountains, oceans, and empires with fractional increases of unseen pressure. Watching the rise of cores, kings, and divine limits with detached curiosity, he reveals that all power exists within his field. Yet one anomaly unsettles the stillness-Drogan, who, upon brushing the Third Core, pushes back against the weight. For the first time in ages, gravity leans closer, not in anger, but in interest.
