The Scorching Sun floating above the central plaza slowly released a sun-like radiance.
As the light spread, the sky seemed to have its mist dispelled, gradually revealing a peculiar image that was clearly independent of space itself... No, was this really just an image?
Some players with space-related ability systems sensed that something was different about the sky.
