To Lord Hollow, necromancy is not a dark art-it is merely physics that hasn't been properly categorized yet. An ancient Aeonian entity composed of iron armor and swirling smoke, Hollow arrives at the Astronomy Institute to find the fortress crumbling under the weight of a dimensional tear.
The First Archmage, Clarisse von Habsburg-a being of living diamond-is losing ground against the "Singularity." To her, it is a magical anomaly; to Hollow, it is a breach in the hull of reality. The "Demigods" are knocking, bringing geometric horrors and concepts like the "Null" to unmake existence.
Hollow offers a solution: ruthless efficiency. Using calcified students and fossilized bones, he builds an army of constructs to hold the line. But the true threat lies deep beneath the Institute. The mountain is not just rock and stone-it is a dormant ancient ship, and Hollow is its long-lost Warden.
To save the world, he must merge with the machine, awaken the ship's weapons, and prepare to launch an entire mountain into the heart of the void.
