Millions of years passed.
The dust that once filled the sky after the asteroid's fall slowly disappeared, and the last traces of human civilization faded from the surface of Earth.
Nothing remained of the human world but a long silence orbiting the Sun.
But the universe was never limited to a single world.
Far away in deep space, distant from the galaxy where Earth once existed, a quiet star system circled a beautiful blue star.
Within that system lay a different planet.
A world unlike anything humanity had ever known.
It was covered with glowing forests whose leaves shimmered like tiny stars.
Rivers of light flowed across its surface like living veins pulsing with energy.
Above it, the sky moved slowly with shifting colors—blue, violet, and silver—like a cosmic painting that never stopped changing.
The name of this world was…
Lumera.

It was nothing like Earth.
On Lumera, life was not built on struggle or survival of the fittest.
Instead, it existed within a remarkable balance between energy and consciousness.
The forests were not merely plants.
They were living beings that radiated a gentle glow, breathing light the way creatures breathe air.
Even the atmosphere carried faint vibrations of energy—something that could be felt more than seen.
But the greatest secret of this world existed in a single place.
A vast valley surrounded by mountains as clear as crystal.
And in the heart of that valley stood something extraordinary.
A colossal wall of light.
It was not made of stone or metal.
Its surface pulsed with energy, its colors constantly shifting.
Sometimes it turned deep blue.
Sometimes a calm violet.
And sometimes a color that had no name in any language.
The inhabitants of Lumera called it:
The Gate of Passage.
No one knew when it had first appeared.
No one knew who—or what—had created it.
But everyone knew one thing.
Life came from it.
From time to time, the light within the wall would intensify, and a new form would begin to take shape inside it.
Slowly…
very slowly…
a new being would emerge into the world.
And that was how the creatures of Lumera were born.
There was no birth as humans had known it.
No fathers.
No mothers.
Life appeared directly from the wall.
As if the universe itself were giving birth.
But one day…
the Gate of Passage began to glow with an intensity never seen before.
The colors inside it moved rapidly, as though an immense energy were trying to escape.
Then a new shape appeared within the light.
It was not like the others that had emerged before.
It carried something different.
A strange consciousness.
A consciousness that held a distant memory of a blue planet that had vanished millions of years ago.
That being would become the beginning of a new story in the world of Lumera.
But no one yet knew…
that Lumera's long peace was approaching a great test.
Because the wall that gave life…
hid a secret far deeper than any being could imagine
