The moment everyone touches the mirror wall, a brilliant flash of light engulfs them. When their eyes finally open, they find themselves in a strange, serene, and almost divine realm. The ground beneath them is made of pristine white stone, towering ancient pillars surround them, and a soft hum echoes gently through the air.
Nexus (looking around slowly):
"Why is it so quiet here? I feel like… someone's watching us."
Ankit (nervously, trying to be funny):
"I'm telling you, this place is like a haunted temple. Feels like we're in a Karan Johar-style horror movie backdrop."
Harsh (with a helpless expression):
"Bro, I need to pee… and this place is scarier than any toilet I've ever seen."
Suddenly, a loud "THAAM!" shakes the silence. Everyone turns toward a massive gate that begins to open on its own.
From behind the gate emerges a towering divine humanoid bull — powerful yet calm in his aura. His entire form is draped in golden robes, and his eyes radiate fierce brilliance.
Nexus (softly, in awe):
"That's… Nandi Maharaj. The guardian of Lord Shiva's gateway."
Kamal (bowing respectfully):
"Namah Shivaya… We never imagined we'd get to meet you."
Nandi Maharaj (with a deep, resonant voice):
"I've been watching all of you. You have faced your sins… and now, you've entered a realm where every step will be a test."
Ajit (irritated):
"But why are we here in the first place? What do we even need from this place?"
Nandi Maharaj:
"You've been granted one final chance — a chance to truly understand yourselves. Walk the path… wherever your heart takes you. But remember… this world will not tolerate your lies."
A narrow path unfolds ahead, branching into three distinct directions.
Ankit (sarcastically):
"So is this a theme park ride now? 'Choose your own death adventure'?"
420 (smiling lightly):
"Whatever it is… I'm sticking with Nexus. I'm here to stay safe."
Tina:
"I'm going wherever the fun is. Whether the problem gets solved or worse… we'll deal with it!"
Everyone begins splitting into groups, walking their own chosen paths — unaware of what lies ahead.
Narrator (Nexus's inner voice):
"This journey… isn't just about understanding. It's about transformation. From the court of Nandi Maharaj, we now walk forward — in search of our true selves."
