The Bastion: Corel’s Broken Heart

[p]The Bastion is more than just a base.[/p][p]It’s the last stronghold on Shard Corel, a fractured world teetering between decay and defiance.[/p][p]Its connection to House Kelevra is undeniable, but its true origins and purpose are clouded in silence, buried in the wreckage of history.[/p][p]What the Bastion really is and what it means to the Kelevra legacy, is something you’ll uncover piece by piece.[/p][p]What was once a beacon of order is now your only refuge.[/p][p][/p][h2]⚙️ Sanctuary, System, and Strain[/h2][p]At first glance, the Bastion feels safe.[/p][p]It hums with machinery, laced with the Ætheric signature of Vellum, the trapped intelligence that powers its core. You’ll return here after missions, but nothing in the Bastion is idle. Every upgrade, every unlocked chamber, is hard-won through exploration and sacrifice.[/p]
  • [p]Restore systems by rerouting Æther from corrupted zones.[/p]
  • [p]Solve elemental puzzles that bridge Corel’s Shadow Realities.[/p]
  • [p]Upgrade your character, abilities, and the very state of the world.[/p]
[p]The Bastion evolves with your choices.[/p][p]Every mission shapes what it becomes and what it remembers.
[/p][p][/p][h2]🧭 A Launchpad into Sources[/h2][p]This is where your reality fractures—literally.[/p][p]From the Bastion, you’ll access four distinct regions of Corel, each holding three vital Sources. Your journey through these regions won’t follow a straight path. You’ll traverse collapsed Realities and corrupted domains, spaces where logic breaks down and nothing stays consistent for long.[/p][p]Progression isn’t linear here.[/p][p]You’ll need to reconnect all sources to restore the Bastion’s core functions and to survive what comes next.[/p][p]It’s not just about where you go. It’s about what you bring back.
[/p][p][/p][h2]🛑 What the Bastion Represents[/h2][p]Power. Memory. Resistance.[/p][p]The Bastion stands as a reflection of what Corel used to be and a fragile hope for what it could become again. It anchors the last threads of stability in a world unraveling, a relic of order in the midst of collapse.[/p][p]In Fading Echo, this is more than a hub.[/p][p]It’s a mystery.[/p][p]A place shaped by the past, waiting to be uncovered, tested, and possibly transformed.[/p][p]Whether the Bastion endures or becomes just another echo, depends on what you choose to bring back.
