Elysium's skies split—two versions hung parallel. Kaden stumbled, seeing Lara in both.
"Lara?" he called, confused.
Lara-1 smiled. "I'm here, Kaden."
Lara-2 frowned. "No, I'm real."
The Weaver spoke: "Choices create branches. Lara's trust split Elysium."
Zeno appeared. "We need balance."
Nyx tossed shadows. "Pick a side?"
Kaden faced the twins. "Which Lara is...?"
Lara-1 and Lara-2 drew swords. "Prove it," they said in unison.
The Weaver laughed. "The test is loyalty."
