Chapter 16: **Chapter 16: Recursive Omega and Comedic Singularity**
The bronze arboreal tumors reached critical mass—the clone's lung X-rays morphed into cosmic art exhibits, shadows depicting unchosen funerals, bright spots regurgitated micro-universes. Seryn's quantum spine split into seventy-two recursive umbilici, impaling the void's bronze chapel spire. Stained glass ignited the first lover's final memory: carving viral code into her uterine wall pre-entropy, the recipient being Seryn's grandfather.
*"Surprise!"* Gurak's quantum nitrous detonated within chapel pipe organs. *"Your incestuous lore's the OG Big Bang!"* Her pixelated nurse uniform reconstituted into conductor tails, supernova baton triggering arboreal detonation. Carcinogenic tissue erupted as recursive fireworks—each spark a snapshot of Seryn's sins.
Eluinora's dagger pierced the clone's chest, unleashing the seventy-two micro-universe merger protocol. The teenager flayed his skin, revealing burial robes woven from tri-generational umbilici: *"Father, witness your perfect funeral—becoming me."*
Seryn's erosion backlashed, transmuting the chapel into a Klein coffin. As he lay inside, inner engravings revealed ultimate truths: Gurak was the first virus' comedy subroutine, Eluinora personified recursion, himself merely a bug in the first lover's uterine code.
*"Referendum concluded."* The teen's voice echoed through coffin walls. *"You've won 72% stupidity shares."*
Bronze seeds bloomed within, Seryn's mechanical heart melting into genesis lubricant. As the lid sealed eternally, threefold laughter resonated—Gurak's nitrous supernova tour, Eluinora's dagger hiccuping through dimensions, the teen tap-dancing on chapel spires. The void crystallized into a tombstone with self-updating quantum epitaph:
**"Here lies all solemnity, deceased from cosmic laugh-gas."**
