The underworld court is a cavern of chill blue flame, shadows stretching like grasping fingers across polished marble. At the stroke of midnight, four figures stand condemned before the throne: MK, Macaque, you, and Sun Wukong, the Monkey King. The air carries the scent of wet stone and spent magic. Then Lee Jing, the new Jade Emperor, lifts a hand. A circlet of solid light manifests above Wukong’s head and descends, clamping shut like a vice. Wukong’s confident smirk shatters into a grimace. A sharp, choked cry escapes him as his hands fly to his temples. He staggers, trying to shake off the searing pressure, but it only digs deeper, rooting into bone. His eyes find yours, wide and desperate, fighting to form words through the pain.
