Galimgim is taken aback by The Curator's swift act of disapproval (Handheld Demise), and while completely absorbed in a grand denial, a swell of magic glows immensely from the paintbrush as it reaches a nexus of transformative power. Galimgim was unintentionally exiled to a realm known as the Astral Corridors, a neglected realm with an endless array of dreams from any timeline and reality on full display. Setting anger aside, he realizes his power has vaulted to that of a demigod, fully able to observe and interact with other dreams as if changing a TV channel or switching out video game cartridges. This dream-surfing becomes a habitual source of mischief. Even his form continues to warp through this ascension; his left hand now morphed into fully realized purple tentacles while his right hand melds with the paintbrush as if it were a symbiote mech-armor weapon.
The Curator is oblivious of this development as she sensed no bearing of where her banishing spell sent him. His essence is no longer detectable in this timeline. Meanwhile, he plunges into Cara Neir's reality seeking new sights and thrills, swiftly gaining a companion in an android named YLB (from Cara Neir's Phantasmal album).
With the help of YLB, the phasing of souls into dream-generated video games becomes the next step in the Gonemage misadventure.
