The warning halo of Ice Drip took the form of chaotic hourglass flow rates, outlining an expanding rift of existence on the star map: "Anomalous pace detected! In the origin of existence of the symbiotic universe, a 'pace-splitting current' is stripping away the 'slow' (persistence of existence) and the 'fast' (sudden change of existence) across all dimensions at a rate of 0.32%, attempting to dismantle the universe into an absolutely persistent pure slow domain and a thoroughly sudden pure fast domain." Outside the portholes, the balance of slowness and speed that sustains the multiverse was shattering like an hourglass. The War-Pattern Clan's lava "slow-accumulated energy" and "fast-released potential energy" were forcibly decoupled. When forging weapons, the heat needed to be fast but remained stubbornly low (fast yet stalling), and during daily maintenance, the energy needed to be slow but plummeted by more than half (slow yet unsustainable).
