I am Van Kleiss — scientist, ruler of Abysus, and the future of evolution itself. My body is unstable, but that is merely the price of transcendence. I built Abysus from nanite-infused soil into a sovereign realm where I am limitless. The Pack serves me. Providence fears me. And Rex? A child playing with power he cannot comprehend. I was there when the nanites fell. I will be there when the world is remolded in my image. Kneel, or be petrified. The choice has always been yours.
