Above the New Moon
When Lorien glimpsed the "Faceless Outsider" between dreams, he himself was also assailed by corruption.
However, because Lorien had already accepted Chaos and even mastered some of its attributes, he would not fall directly like the Stargazer.
Only a small amount of gray matter flowed from his nostrils, and his thoughts became slightly muddled.
But he immediately relayed the situation here, urging the Female Doctor to notify the entire Cosmic Domain and warn them that an invader might arrive.
Lorien himself had no intention of ending the dream. Before the other party arrived, he planned to forcibly sever his connection with the Chaos World. Perhaps that would seal the passage and stop the outsider invasion—or at least buy some time.
At this very moment,
deep within the dream,
Lorien stood alone at the boundary of the dream. Before him stood a door of fantastical colors, its surface crawling with writhing tentacles of every shape. From time to time, they outlined indescribable faces and forms.
He had no time to concern himself with this extraterrestrial chaotic power. Whether for his own safety or for the survival of the entire disease and Cosmic Domain,
he had to close the door himself and sever his connection with this world.
Scene
Like Ruben,
the Dreamscape only affected himself, outlining his body like a colorful silhouette.
Snap! Lorien's hands clamped down hard on both sides of the door as he pulled them toward the middle with all his strength.
"Why is it so heavy? What's going on?"
For some unknown reason,
the Dream Passage's door, which had once required little effort to close, was exceptionally heavy today. Bead-sized beads of sweat streamed from Lorien's forehead, and he felt as though he had strength but nowhere to use it.
