Kael moved through the silent hallway, his tall frame casting long shadows beneath the flickering dorm lights. No one saw him. No one needed to. He had instinctively cloaked his presence—his aura no longer radiated. As if he never awakened. As if he were still just another powerless student.
He reached his room, slid the door shut, and locked it. Then he sat cross-legged on the bed. The Law Domain hummed inside him, quiet but absolute. He exhaled slowly, closed his eyes, and focused inward.
With a thought, his consciousness sank.
He opened his eyes again, but this time, he was no longer in his room.
He stood within a vast marble chamber—his Inner Core. The space stretched endlessly, glowing with a faint golden mist. In the center stood a colossal scale suspended in the air, each side perfectly balanced. A sword floated behind it, spinning slowly, tip downward. Books hovered around the room, chained yet open, pages turning on their own. High above, golden chains crossed the air like constellations.
Kael walked toward the scale, and as he did, information began to pour into him.
Domain of Law: A Conceptual Authority Over Rules, Balance, and Judgment.
With this Aspect, Kael could impose laws on reality—rules that must be obeyed within his Domain. The stronger his Domain became, the wider the area he could influence. He could declare truths that could not be denied: "No one shall lie," "No one shall use magic," "No one shall move without judgment." If they broke these laws, consequences followed—chains of judgment, swords of truth, or a collapse of the violator's own abilities.
But the power came at a cost.
To strengthen the Domain, Kael had to understand the nature of law in all things: cosmic law, natural law, social law, divine law. The deeper his understanding, the more refined and powerful his Domain would become.
Paths of Power:
— Truth: Detect lies, pierce illusions, reveal hidden motives.
— Judgment: Weigh actions, punish evil, redeem the worthy.
— Binding: Restrict movement, seal abilities, control flow of energy.
— Commandments: Set universal rules within his Domain.
Kael knelt before the scale. He placed a hand on it.
It responded. The sword behind it ignited in gold flame. One of the books unchained itself and floated to him.
Kael smiles.Lets see whats going on.
