บท 5943: The Violet Refuge

The empty expanse around the consciousness of Ves began to change into a completely different setting.

The void of deep space came into existence. Stars dotted the skies, though not ones that looked familiar.

The illusion, for Ves recognized that he was not observing a location that existed in reality, presented a sea of stars that did not possess the red nebulas that defined the Red Ocean, nor the ubiquitous golden glow of Messier 87.

Instead, a spherical boundary that glowed in a subtle shade of violet caged in this expanse of space.

Ves had a powerful sense that the space beyond this violet boundary might look completely different from a vast expanse of space.

What mattered was the space inside this violet energy bubble. It was not empty. Instead, it was filled with several large space stations and starships.
