The leaves had fallen.
Change could not be halted.
Much of the Ethereal facets had compacted at the Center.
Many had been transformed into gases and matter.
The Center was now under extreme pressure by the Void.
The Ethereals that were left in this time first felt a slight bubble.
A nudge against a shoulder.
Became an explosion as the Center erupted outward.
In that brief instant they realized that their season of wholeness had passed.
Summer had ended.
Autumn had begun.
