Due to the White Titan’s descent seven thousand years ago, piercing through the very foundations of the gods' presence on Earth, the Age of Gods had steadily declined. Though the gods still dwelled in heaven, they had long since lost the ability to manifest their true forms in the mortal realm.
Yet even diminished, the Age of Gods had not fully ended.

In a room within a quiet courtyard beside Uruk’s royal palace, rays of sunlight spilled through the window panes, highlighting specks of floating dust like glowing embers. Enkidu, seated beside Rovi, stared at him accusingly.

A crimson figure stood before Sora, wearing a heart-shaped ring on his finger. Between his fingertips, he casually held a tiny sphere.
