🕳️ Heart of the Abyss

“This is where time doesn’t flow, memory loops endlessly, and pain is the only light that remains.”

The Heart of the Abyss is the lowest, most corrupted core within the Nytherion Abyss — a dimensional sinkhole where all forgotten hopes and collapsed realities reside.

The spiraling arena is not designed for ceremony. It is a prison of perception. The labyrinthine towers surrounding it are illusions of escape: stairs that lead nowhere, doors that open to darkness, and geometry that shifts with every blink.

📜 Historical Significance

This was the exact realm where Rei — during his spiritual collapse — was once trapped, tortured, and lost in the spiral of doubt. But rather than perish in despair, he awakened.

His escape did not destroy the Abyss — it redefined it.

From this very place, Rei architected his resistance: the philosophy of Astralis Pinnacle, the rise of Reltronland, and the courage to rewrite his existence.

🧠 Philosophical Interpretation

• The spiral symbolizes the false promise of endless potential that turns into self-deception.
• The staircase reflects effort with no meaning, the loop of burnout.
• The darkness is not evil — it is the absence of defined purpose.

🛡️ Legacy

Though Rei has left this realm, he left a marker of warning and remembrance. This location now stands not as a threat, but as a monument of survival.

“From the deepest fall, I built my highest pillar.”
— Rei Reltroner
