At the center of the Quantum Mist's narrative constellation, the quantum replica of the Narrative Seed suddenly began to collapse. The Symbiotic Psalms of millions of universes converged toward the singularity, forming an infinitely dense vortex of narrative energy. Lyra's Mechanical Heart trembled violently, and the multi-universe symbiotic emblems between its gears projected the dying narratives of various universes—in the Music Universe, a transposing singer was composing a final impromptu piece; in the Painting Universe, a fracture painter was pouring solder nodule slag into mirror cracks; while in the Mirror Universe, another Lyra was using a weld-point sketch to ignite a dodecahedral codex symbolizing order.
"Narrative entropy has broken through the critical threshold." Fracture-like narrative energy patterns appeared on Ice Drip's mirror shell. Its "cross-dimensional spectrum analysis" module showed that the Narrative Entropy Value ($S_?$) of the multiverse had reached 1.97 J/Hz·K, approaching the singularity collapse threshold. "The narrative waves of all universes are converging toward the primitive welding point of Civilization No. 139, where a narrative singularity is forming." Lyra's consciousness traversed the vortex, "seeing" that the core of the singularity was a quantum holographic projection of Mother's Notes. Every page was simultaneously writing millions of endings; the coffee stains on the edges of the pages turned into black holes devouring narratives, a…
