Synopsis

The chapter delves into the origins of the game, explaining it's a cosmic entity that feeds on worlds by turning them into game maps, while inhabitants become monsters. It's revealed that 'players' are units that developed enough power to break the game's balance, and the characters learn they can fight back by essentially 'eating the game' using its own powers to restore their world. The chapter concludes with a call to action, giving the remaining citizens a choice: fight or remain as part of the game.
