The Garden of Eternity was enveloped in a silence that resembled a melody. It resonated among the branches of the trees, filling the air with a harmony that had never existed before. The leaves of the trees shimmered with a soft golden light, and the streams of time, flowing between the branches, became smooth and calm, like rivers that had found their course.
At the center of the Garden, where the portal once stood, there was now a small lake. Its surface reflected the stars, the sky, and the endless streams of time. The lake pulsed with light, like a heart upon which the balance of all realities now depended.
On the shore of the lake stood a figure. It was Emiren, the new Creator of the Garden. His clothing was simple, but golden threads woven through the fabric emitted a soft glow. His face was calm, and his eyes gazed at the horizons with a wisdom he had not possessed before.
“This world has become different,” he said softly to himself, looking at the branches of the Tree of Time.
The Restoration of Balance
The new branches sprouting from the Tree of Time were extraordinary. Each was connected to a separate world that had once existed but now received a second chance at restoration. In some of the branches, familiar moments could be seen—cities that had been destroyed by chaos were now being rebuilt, and people were finding peace.
Emiren approached one of the branches. Its light reminded him of Aliana. Her sacrifice would forever remain a part of the Garden, and every stream of time that now returned to balance was a testament to her courage.
He touched the branch, and a new world unfolded before his eyes. It was a quiet valley surrounded by mountains, where clear streams flowed, and people lived in peace.
“Time begins to heal its wounds,” Emiren said, allowing the branch to grow further.
The Garden as a Living Being
The Garden of Eternity was no longer just a place—it was a living being. Every part of it felt time, responded to changes, and even Emiren sensed that his very essence had become inseparable from this harmony.
He approached the lake, at the center of which stood the Tree of Choice—a new symbol of the Garden. Its branches stretched upward, as if reaching for the light of new realities. In the bark of the tree were engraved moments of time: the first battle, his meeting with Aliana, her sacrifice, and the moment when balance was restored.
Emiren placed his hand on the bark of the tree and felt a faint pulse—it was the life of the Garden, which now depended on him.
“Every branch is a new beginning,” he whispered. “But I see that for some, the path is not yet complete.”
New Creators
Suddenly, he heard a voice. It was a melody, similar to the one Aliana had once sung. It seemed to come from the very essence of the Garden.
“You cannot remain here alone,” said the voice, filled with gentleness.
Emiren looked up and saw figures emerging from the depths of the Garden. These were people who had once lived in the worlds connected to the Garden. They were now chosen to become new Creators, those who would help maintain the balance of time.
“I thought my destiny was to stay here alone forever,” Emiren said, looking at them.
One of the figures, a young woman with shining eyes, stepped closer.
“We are always here to help,” she said. “The Garden cannot exist without many hands to sustain it.”
Emiren smiled. His heart, which had long been burdened with loss, finally found peace.
The Dawn of a New Time
The Garden began to fill with life. New streams of time and new realities unfolded in harmony. Emiren, along with the new Creators, carefully watched to ensure that each branch found its path.
On one of the trees hung Aliana’s medallion, glowing with a warm golden light. It served as a reminder that sacrifice and love always leave their mark on time.
And though time in the Garden flowed continuously, Emiren knew that every dawn here was the beginning of something new.
The Garden of Eternity became a true home for all worlds, and its story was only just beginning.
