Capítulo 64: Guardian of the Veil

The Abyssal Nexus stood closer than ever, its iridescent pulses washing the ocean's dark expanse in mesmerizing waves of color. The structure exuded an aura that felt simultaneously inviting and threatening, like a riddle waiting to ensnare its solver. Daniel and Mira hovered in the oppressive water, their bodies tensed with a mix of anticipation and unease.

For Daniel, the pull of the Nexus was no longer just a whisper in the back of his mind—it was a relentless demand, insistent and all-consuming.

"We're nearing the eye of the storm," Mira murmured, breaking the heavy silence. Her voice carried a tension that even she couldn't hide.

Daniel's fins flicked restlessly. "Do you feel it too? Like the Nexus is... searching us?"

Mira nodded, her eyes scanning their surroundings. "The Nexus isn't just alive—it's aware. And whatever it's looking for, it won't hesitate to test us again."
