HUMMMMMMMMMMMMM—WHOOOOOOSH!
Rising through the golden clouds of the fifth-dimensional boundary atop a river of starlight from a quadrillion porch lanterns below. The [Galactic Flying Courtyard (Flying Courtyard Star-Cruiser)] arrived directly in front of the last stronghold of the Heavenly Script Pavilion in the lower universe: the [Central Abyssal Editorial Citadel (Trinity Tribunal of Fate)]!
Looming across five hundred miles of the dark fifth-dimensional void like a jagged, three-headed mountain of black obsidian, pink jade. Rusted blood-iron, the fused citadel combined the full structural mass of the Tear-Stained Spire (King of Tragedy), the Pink Jade Brothel-Palace (King of Harem-Slavery), and the Central Abyssal Sanctum (King of Doom).
Surrounding the three-towered fortress was a suffocating, ten-thousand-layer spherical shield of pitch-black and crimson text: the [10,000-Layer Grimdark Plot-Armor Barrier]!
Every single layer of that ten-thousand-fold barrier was woven from the cynical, anti-family foundational axioms of the Heavenly Script Pavilion:
- Layer #0001 read: “All warm homes must eventually burn to ash so the protagonist can learn hatred!”
- Layer #2500 read: “Benevolence is weakness; only ruthless slaughter and betrayal can ascend the heavens!”
- Layer #9999 read: “No mortal family is permitted a happy ending while the Script-Kings hold the pen!”
