บท 500: Interlude

Somewhere in the vast Mirror Universe was a gigantic planet wandering lonely in an ocean of endless emptiness. Because of its size and the sheer absence of any point of comparison, one might have thought that this planet was moving slowly or perhaps not moving at all, but it was in fact frighteningly fast.

This planet was B842, from System ZZ831.

In high orbit around this planet, well above the altitude where most of the Floating Islands and Thelma were, a huge ring-shaped spaceship was drifting around without any protection or escort. But this was not recklessness.

In addition to the abundance of hyper-advanced heavy weapons that lined the warship, on board were the Oracle Overseer Oros and a few hundred Oracle Guardians. Next to these powerhouses, the huge ship was no different than a wooden shack and served simply as a base of operations.
