Lin Ye wove the "existence obsession" he had grasped from the Disintegration Node, the "cyclic conflict" he had grasped from the Paradox Code, and the domineering resolve within his own "Attunement" that commanded all paths into the power of the Prototype!
The Prototype's light became a "Sea of Concepts" flowing with infinite possibilities, surging back toward the dark-red tendrils and devouring mist!
Didn't you want to devour? Didn't you want to plunder concepts?
Then I'll give them to you! I'll give you the most complex, contradictory, indigestible "concept bomb" there is-one that might even burst you apart!
The instant the Prototype's power touched the dark-red force, the tendrils and mist greedily coiled around it, devouring its light.

"Order-definition piercing!" Radiant Stilllight burned the last of their essence, defining a "passage"
