Their mission had brought them to Sorceror's World, which led to their first lead -- a strange artifact that, if completed, would allow them to find how the Spectre had been imprisoned the first time. After the golden device had been activated and revealed this, they all suddenly found themselves teleported in teams of two to new locations.

Strange, weird, and magical new locations.

That... doesn't look very safe. Still, she bows respectfully and straightens up. "Thank you, very much, for you advice and direction. We'll be going now."

She glances in the direction of the shimmering, shooting star void and nods to herself. "We should go, Paladin..."

Pidge nods at Miku, turns back to give a quick wave to the people who helped them, and then starts off in that direction.

It's difficult to tell what exactly they're walking into, but Pidge finds herself enthralled by the way the space warps and glimmers in a way that dark matter usually does not.

"It's really beautiful out here. I mean, for being so desolate."

All of a sudden the ground is gone and they're somehow walking among the stars as they fall out of the sky around them, even though there's no ground.

The end of the universe should be the stars simply turning into black holes and maybe they are. Maybe, in a more grounded version of reality, the universe is simply cooling down, as entropy causes it to creep into heat death.

But this universe is ruled just as much by magic as it is by science, and so, even as the stars turn into black holes and dissipate, they also cascade around, falling from nowhere into nothing.

Also magical: the strange crystalline palace that they suddenly see in the distance. Reality is compressed here. All of time and space caved in at a single point. This palace is all that's left of the entire universe.
