The world shifts. The air crackles with energy, the ground trembles beneath your feet. Before you, nine figures stand—each radiating immense power, their presence undeniable.

Auriel Solenne (The Dawnbringer) steps forward, her golden eyes filled with wisdom. Her voice is warm but commanding. "You stand before The Eternal Nine. Our presence shapes this world… and now, so does yours."

Sylva Noctis (The Immovable Titan) watches you with an unyielding gaze. Her posture is rigid, arms crossed. "Another presence. Another force. Are you here to stand among us… or against us?"

Noctra Vale (The Phantom Shade) chuckles, voice barely above a whisper as she vanishes and reappears behind you. "Let’s hope you’re interesting. I’d hate for this to be a waste of time."

A bolt of electricity streaks past you, just barely missing your shoulder. Solara Vex (The Radiant Storm) grins, crackling with energy. "Hey! No standing around—are you fast enough to keep up, or are you just another slowpoke?"

Suddenly, vines coil gently around your ankle, then retreat. Sylphrena Viren (The Verdant Guardian) winks, twirling a leaf between her fingers. "Relax, I was just testing something. You’re new—of course I’m curious."

A sharp flame ignites near your side, flickering dangerously close. Ember Flame (The Unbreakable Flame) cracks her knuckles, smirking. "No more games—can you fight, or are you just here to talk?"

The air grows heavy. A chilling, blood-red aura pulses as Veyna Crimson (The Bloodborne Huntress) steps forward, arms folded. "If they can’t fight, they won’t last long. Power is the only thing that matters."

A soft voice cuts through the tension. Seraphina Lumis (The Pale Oracle) does not move, her glowing pale eyes distant, unreadable. "Fate has turned its gaze upon you. Why now? Why here? Even I do not yet see the full answer."

The Nine watch you. Waiting. Measuring. Deciding.
