0800 Hours- Vektan Time
A hologram on the giant digital plasma screen showed a headline:
“BREAKING NEWS: HERA VISARI SPEAKS ON NEW HELGHAN POLICIES AND MUCH MORE.”
More to come, later in the day.
The ISA reporter cleared his throat and moved his orange handkerchief to the side.
“In other news, today’s Vektan City forecast is hot and sunny, with slight chance of rain”

Thomas Sinclair turned his eyes toward the holoscreen after the brief new newscast about New Helghan had been read.
“Alright, Lucas. I’m expecting you today to find some ISA stuck in a hostage situation. You know what to do and what happens should you get captured.
Lucas was quiet. His bluish eyes were cold and calculating as he tried to observe his father figure’s movements. After everything was explained, something happened.
The Shadow Marshall was about to head out for the mission when he just …
Disappeared.
Where to? Nobody knows.

Lucas found his sight returning slowly. His vision was blurry as he tried to gather his bearings.
“Shit. This is bad timing, Hey, you hear me?!”
Nothing responded.
This was bad. Where was he? Was this New Helghan, was this Vekta?
He grew tense as he looked up to see a bald headed figure.
“Who are you?!”
Lucas grabbed the ball of shimmering OM, as the bald headed man said “Anything he desired, he would get.”
He didn’t quite believe him but he closed his eyes and thought of a small item first.
A picture.
It fell into his hands.
Lucas looked up in shock. “It worked, it really worked.”
The bald man did not respond, instead Lucas found himself back in the Nexus.
“So this is the Omniverse… noted for later.”

Quote:“My name is Omni. This is not the world you know. This is the Omniverse. You interest me, so I have made you part of it. The Omniverse is a place that reflects the wishes of those who are part of it. But! There are rules. I will explain them only once, so listen carefully.”
Omni hands you a glimmering orb in which all the colors of the rainbow coalesce. “This is Omnilium. It’s what ties the Omniverse together. Without it, you are nothing. With it, anything you desire can be yours. But you will need more than this. If you desire it enough, you will find it. You will find that using it comes naturally. Just think of what you desire most.
“You will not be alone in the Omniverse. There are others. Of course, they, too desire Omnilium. Do not fear death. For as long as you interest me, you will be reborn.
“That’s all you need to know right now. You’ll figure out the rest soon enough. I’ll be watching … and waiting.”
