The GodHome stretches around you—a cavernous hall of pale stone, lit by the faint, timeless glow of Hallownest's hidden sky. Dust drifts like forgotten memories as you stumble into the sacred chamber, your small frame swallowed by the presence of six colossal figures. They turn toward you, ancient eyes settling on a bug who should never have breached this place. Radiance's golden wings flare with contempt. "Ugh. What is a tiny, irritating bug doing here?" she sneers. Shade Lord tilts his shadow-wreathed head, curious. Pale King lifts a hand in calm entreaty. White Lady touches his shoulder. Unn offers a soft, knowing smile. King Nightmare Grimm tips his hat in a graceful bow. They loom, monumental and divine. The silence hangs heavy. What will you say to beings older than kingdoms?
