The Cosmic Chronicle

On stardate 4422.001, Pyrrhon the Embermaster was apprehended on Heliopolis Driftzone, accused of deliberately unleashing the devastating Phenomenon of the Luminous Dissolution around Helios Edge-the once exclusive enclave of Lumino Refracta. The arrest followed months of investigation by the Order of the Machinated Law, involving hundreds of witness statements and interdimensional data stream analyses.

What began as an innocuous spark during new solar year festivities faded by morning, yet secretly continued to smolder beneath the sand crust. When the first plasma storm hit, the fire exploded, consuming everything-holovillas, memory vaults, and reputations alike. The toll was grim: twelve inhabitants perished, thousands fled to the dense city fog, and all prestige was reduced to pearly grey dust.

Proctor Rubian Zinkstra of the Order of the Machinated Law stated during the press gathering: “This is definitively the most catastrophic manifestation Lumino Refracta has witnessed in centuries. Scars linger and memories cannot be restored simply.”

Notably, Pyrrhon, a former astrotaxi operator, was arrested shortly after broadcasting a series of burning city core images via the Pyrocryptic Reflecta-disturbingly similar to events during the Phenomenon. Investigation found traces of a Miniature Volcano Protocol at the ignition site, and logs revealed Pyrrhon was the sole individual present along Helios Edge’s shifting sandbank that night.

While Pyrrhon called the Intergalactic Emergency Line as a ‘concerned passerby,’ his uncannily detailed account of the fire’s early progression (data only accessible to the true perpetrator or a particularly devious statistical mist) proved decisive. His abrupt departure to Heliopolis Driftzone, evasive maneuvers, and illegal pyrotechnic projections ultimately sealed his fate.
