Arch Unblocked -

Silence.

A century ago, the Seers had declared it a gateway to chaos. So the Kings of old built the Barrier: a seamless wall of black iron that sealed the Arch's passage, reinforced with wards and watched by the Wardens of the Still Path. No one went through. No one came from the other side. The Arch became a monument to obedience. arch unblocked

Because the Arch was blocked.

The iron wall didn't shatter. It folded —neatly, quietly, like a curtain parting. Dust rose. Sunlight poured through the Arch for the first time in a century. Silence

At first, faint. A shiver in the ground at dawn. Then stronger—the iron wall groaned, not from age, but from pressure . Something on the other side was pushing. The runes on the Arch flickered to life, glowing faint blue. No one went through

Just a garden. Wild, overgrown, beautiful. Vines heavy with golden fruit. A path of white gravel leading to a second arch, smaller, nested within the first. And at its foot, a woman in simple gray robes, holding a lantern with a steady flame.
