In Their Own Story
The void hums with anticipation as the beat drops. Two streaks of light ignite in the darkness—one crimson, one azure—anchored to hands that do not exist but move with intent. A block materializes from the rhythm, an arrow pointing toward the left blade. The saber swings through the air, a holographic trail lingering for a fraction of a second before fading into nothingness. The block shatters into particles, syncing perfectly with the bass line.
