Chapter 487: The Fifth Race and The Awakening

'Fifth race?' The term puzzled Vesuvius, the dragon, whose mind then plunged into the depths of his innate draconic knowledge. This reservoir of wisdom wasn't personal; it resembled an immense, searchable sea, akin to the internet, where one must know precisely what to seek.

'Void walkers,' the term emerged within his thoughts, clarifying as streams of pertinent knowledge and memories converged. Initially, it baffled him that such a powerful race had never crossed his path, neither personally nor in myths and legends. Yet, as understanding dawned, the pieces fell into place.

'No wonder there are no legends of them. The very nature of their existence makes them elusive.' Vesuvius realized that these beings dwelt in the void's emptiness, outside known reality, ruling over the elements of void, destruction, and dissipation. All their power was turning around nothingness or making nothingness.
