The Twelfth Floor

12th floor

Home of the bijou fairies whose threads reach all the way to Justice Light's trap.

Story so far

When Justice Light's Bijou Trap fell into the portal into The Nothing, it carried thousands of threads connected to the Bijou of the twelfth floor.

Those threads are what made the plan work: as they tightened, four separate planes folded together into a flower pattern and the darkness at the center broke apart. The twelfth floor's fairies were freed by the trap's deactivation.

Role

The origin of the bijou whose threads bind and then tear four planes together.

Relationships

Bijou — Its fairies, tethered by threads to the Bijou Trap.
Bijou Trap — Connected to the floor by thousands of threads.
