The purple window did not appear suddenly.
It unfolded.
Like thin light tearing open the air itself— silent, precise, indifferent to gravity, fear, or the rushing wind screaming past her ears.
Symbols shimmered across its surface, sharp and unfamiliar, glowing with a cold violet hue that did not belong to the real world.
It stayed perfectly still beside her… while everything else kept falling.
Seorin's eyes widened, not fully understanding what she was seeing— only knowing that something had arrived at the exact moment she was about to disappear.
Her breath caught in her throat.
(Wait… I… I'm not… at the ground… not yet…)
The numbers continued.
00:00:03
The city below was no longer distant.
Shapes were becoming clear.
Too clear.
00:00:02
Her heartbeat slammed once— loud enough to drown the wind for a split second.
The purple window flickered.
And then—
A text appeared.
Not slowly.
Not gently.
But all at once.
