章 1843: Disease

A week before the highly anticipated expedition, Emery set aside some private time to converse with his friend. "Chumo, I need to show you something."

"What is it?"

With a deliberate and measured gesture, Emery conjured a portal. However, this was no ordinary portal; it was the Khaos Gate, a gateway that opened into the newly formed garden-like sanctuary. Amidst the flourishing plant creatures in the serene space, a massive tentacled entity, Cthulhu, stood at the end of the cave-like room. The sight of the colossal creature left Chumo in a state of shock.

Cthulhu, the enigmatic guardian of Khaos, offered a rather ominous greeting.

<Who is this you brought to see me this time? He's too skinny for a snack.>

Emery quickly sought to clarify, "No, no, Cthulhu. This is my friend, and I wish for you to consider him as one of the Khaos Seeds."
