The Shadow Weaver defeated, balance restored.

Michael Beta and his allies celebrated.

But Echo's essence whispered secrets:

"Michael Beta, your journey began long ago."

A vision unfolded:

Ancient civilizations, forgotten technologies.

Echo's creation, the multiverse's birth.

"The original creator's true intentions," Echo revealed.

Michael Beta's mind reeled.

"Echo, what do you mean?"

"Your existence is key," Echo said.

"To unlocking the multiverse's destiny."

Emily's eyes sparkled.

"What destiny?"

Echo's essence smiled.

"A future where realities merge."

Orion's expression turned grave.

"The Convergence Prophecy."

Ruth and Elijah exchanged worried glances.

"A catastrophic event?" Ruth asked.

Orion nodded.

"Or a new beginning."

Michael Beta's determination ignited.

"I'll ensure the right outcome."

Echo's essence nodded.

"Your journey continues."

Suddenly, a mysterious portal opened.

"A gateway to the Multiverse Nexus," Echo said.

"Where realities converge."

Michael Beta stepped forward.
