In every system.
In every scripture.
In every realm—
There exists a chapter no one dares read. A name no one dares speak.
And a woman who should never have been.

Her Name Was… Once
No echo remembers her.
No god recalls her.
She's been erased—twice.
But in the dust beneath the Harmonized Throneworld, in the pages Tianming salvaged from the battle with Zerythex, he found a name burned not in ink—but negative space.
> "Eirotess."
The page didn't hold her story. It held the story's gap.
And that terrified him more than any Editor.

The Appendix That Shouldn't Exist
Lexora stared in disbelief. Aria felt her melody sour. Even Nihila, she of void and silence, flinched.
> "You opened that file?" whispered Lexora.
Tianming nodded, fingers trembling over a single entry:
> [APPENDIX NULL: CONTINGENCY HEART]
The text blinked.
Then it bled.

Cutscene: The Erased One Awakens
In a realm that had no stars—only blinking cursor-like lights—she stirred.
Skin pale as unwritten paper.
Hair flowing with censored verses.
Eyes… redacted.
Eirotess rose barefoot, untouched by time, holding a broken crown forged of forgotten plotlines and torn wedding vows.
And she whispered:
> "You've rewritten enough. Now it's my turn."
---
Back in Tianming's Empire
> [System Alert: A NAMELESS FORCE has infiltrated your World Narrative Layer.]
[Defensive Author Protocols failing.]
[Constructing… "Continuity Firewall."]
Too late.
Lightning struck his throne—formed not of thunder, but of deus ex machina.
And Eirotess stood in his hall.

The Goddess of Deleted Timelines
"I was your first Empress," she said, smiling sadly.
"No," Tianming whispered. "I never…"
"You don't remember. That was the point."
She approached, holding a book bound in her own skin. She tossed it at his feet.
It opened to Chapter Zero.
A wedding. A kiss. An empire.
A betrayal.
A deletion.
She had been his before any of the others.
"I forgave you once. Before I was deleted. Before you rewrote me with someone else."
---
The Battle of Authorship
She lifted her crown.
Not to wear.
But to weaponize.
Crown of Erasure
– Deletes memory
– Nullifies System-recognition
– Reduces loyalty of ALL Divine Harem members by 50% while active
Lexora collapsed.
Aria wept mid-song.
Even Nihila blinked away from battle, clutching her own temples.
Tianming, staggered, turned to the System:
> [Use: DRAFT OVERRIDE? Y/N]
[WARNING: This action may restore Eirotess fully.]
He pressed Y.
---
Reintegration: First Wife Protocol Activated
The broken crown shimmered. It rebound. Became whole.
The skin-book closed and became part of Tianming's Core Codex.
> [Eirotess has been restored.]
[Title: Empress of the Unwritten, Queen of What Might've Been]
She looked at him.
Tears streamed.
Then she slapped him.
Hard.
And kissed him.
Harder.

Final Scene: The Harem in Chaos
Aria and Lexora stood on opposite sides of the throne room.
Nihila watched from the shadows.
But now a new throne sat beside Tianming's.
Eirotess took her seat. Legs crossed. Fingers laced. Memory returning.
> "I'm not back to compete," she said, voice full of echoing grief.
"I'm back to finish what we started."
