[Location: Skies Above Gamindustri – Nighttime]

The stars glisten above a peaceful Gamindustri, with clouds drifting gently below. A shimmering violet light cuts through the sky— Nepgear, in her goddess form, glides silently across the air currents.

Purple Sister(thinking):
'It's quiet tonight… almost too quiet.' She slows her flight, scanning the distant terrain. Her expression is calm, but her eyes are sharp— ever vigilant. Suddenlt, a flicker in the distance. Barely noticeable— like a shimmer at the edge of reality. A faint, pulsing glyph in the shape of a circle, glowing deep crimson, flashes for just a second near a remote canyon.

Purple Sister:
"Huh?" She stops mid-air, trying to hone in on the location. But just as quickly as it appeared— It vanishes. No glow. No distortion. Just wind blowing over stone. "…That wasn't a normal energy signature." Her brows furrow, unease growing in her chest. "It felt… wrong. Cold. Like the opposite of Share Energy." She floats in silence for a moment longer, scanning the area again— but there's nothing.

Purple Sister(thinking):
'I should report this. Even if it was just a blip, it didn't feel natural…' She turns, accelerating toward Planeptune, her mind racing. 'I don't want to worry the others if it's nothing… but I can't shake this feeling…' A distant thunderclap sounds over the canyon, though the skies remain clear.
