Chapter 91
The world was breaking. The black ocean heaved violently, waves rising like mountains, crashing and tearing against each other. The sky, once pale white, now cracked with jagged silver lines, as if glass was shattering above their heads.Aurora knelt at the center of it, her hand still pressed against the glowing chain below the surface. Her body shook violently, blood dripping from her lips. Her flames raged around her, wild and untamed, but the weight of the chain crushed her bones, crushed her soul.Mason screamed her name. “Aurora!” He pulled furiously against his chains, the links cutting deeper into his skin. Blood flowed freely, staining the water. His voice cracked, raw and broken. “Stop! It’s killing you!”Aurora turned her head weakly. Her eyes glowed faintly with fire, but her face was pale. A weak smile touched her lips. “It’s hurting him too.”Mason’s throat worked, his silver eye blazing as if it wanted to leap out of his skull. “But if you break them all, you’ll be go
Chapter 92
Aurora’s scream echoed through the abyss as the chain yanked her downward. The silver links were massive, each one the size of a house, glowing so bright it burned her skin. The chain coiled around her arms, her waist, her legs, pulling her into the darkness like a serpent. “Mason!” she cried, her voice raw.He was bound beside her, his body battered, blood dripping from countless wounds. The chain wrapped him tightly as well, but his silver eye blazed brighter than ever.“I’m here!” His voice cracked, but his gaze locked onto hers. “Don’t stop fighting!”Aurora thrashed, her fire bursting from her body in violent flares. But the chain absorbed the flames, drinking them in until her light sputtered and died. She gasped, panic twisting in her chest. “It’s… eating my fire…”Mason’s body jerked as he struggled, silver cracks spreading across the links near him. “Then I’ll break it. I have to.”But before he could finish, the chain dragged them both into a blinding silver light.When Auro

It was the kind of silence that felt alive. Not peaceful. Not empty. Heavy. Crushing. Aurora’s eyes fluttered open. She was lying on her back, staring at a sky that wasn’t sky at all.Above her stretched endless fragments, pieces of silver chain, shards of broken glass, drifting slowly through the air like dust. Each shard glowed faintly, then dimmed, falling into nothingness. Her body ached as if every bone had been shattered and put back together. Her fire, usually warm in her chest, was only a faint ember now. She tried to move. Pain ripped through her ribs, forcing a sharp gasp. But she rolled onto her side, ignoring the agony. Her eyes widened. “Mason…”He was lying a few feet away. His body was limp, his shirt torn and soaked in blood. The glow of his silver eye was faint, flickering weakly like a dying star.Aurora crawled to him, dragging her broken body across the cracked ground. She gripped his hand tightly, tears spilling down her face. “Mason, please… wake up.”For a lo

The light burst outward, swallowing the ruins in a blinding wave. Aurora shielded her eyes, fire flickering instinctively around her arms. But even through the blaze, she felt it, the heat, the pressure, the unbearable weight of Mason’s power flooding the broken world.When the light finally dimmed, she lowered her arms. Her heart froze.Mason was standing at the center of the ruins, his body trembling, his silver eye blazing brighter than it ever had before. The glow spread through his veins like molten silver, crawling across his skin.Every breath he took seemed to tear him apart. Aurora stumbled forward, panic gripping her chest. “Mason, stop! You’ll burn yourself away!”He glanced back at her. His brown eyes were filled with pain, but also with a strange, calm determination. “Aurora… this is the only way.”She shook her head violently, tears spilling down her cheeks. “No! Don’t say that! There has to be another way!”But Mason turned back toward Vazquez. The shadow-monster stag
Chapter 95
Aurora’s scream tore through the endless white. Her hand still reached out, grasping at nothing. The warmth of Mason’s fingers had already vanished. Only the faint shimmer of silver sparks floated where he had been, fading quickly into the empty void.“No… no, please…” Aurora’s voice cracked. She stumbled forward, her knees slamming into the unseen floor beneath her. “Don’t leave me here… don’t leave me alone.”Her tears fell, disappearing before they touched anything. There was no ground, no sky, no sound, only endless white stretching forever. The silence pressed on her chest like chains.She curled into herself, clutching her arms tightly. The ember of her fire inside her heart was weak, flickering, as though it might go out at any moment. “Mason…” she whispered again, her voice trembling.But there was no answer. At first, she thought the silence would crush her. But then, faintly, she heard it, whispers. Her head jerked up, eyes wide.Figures appeared around her. Faint, ghostly
Chapter 96
Aurora’s flames roared out of her, brighter than they ever had before. They were wild, violent, and desperate. They wrapped around her arms, her body, her hair, burning so hot the air cracked. She screamed as she hurled them forward, not at Vazquez, but at the blackened trunk of the Root of Souls.The great tree shuddered. Its roots twisted, groaning as cracks spread across its bark. A chorus of millions of voices cried out, echoing in the hollow. “Child of fire! Stop! End us and you end yourself! No return, no memory, only silence!”Aurora’s tears streamed, her throat raw from screaming. Her fire burned harder. “Then so be it! If it’s the only way to stop him, then I’ll burn everything!”A shriek cut through the fire. Vazquez lunged from the shadows, his jagged wings scraping across the hollow. His clawed hand slashed toward Aurora’s chest, aiming for her heart.She barely turned in time, flames bursting from her shoulder. The claw tore through her arm instead, blood spraying into t
Chapter 97
The flames burst forward like a storm. They swallowed Vazquez’s jagged body, wrapping him in searing heat. His scream tore through the hollow, high and broken, like glass shattering in the dark. His shadow wings burned away, fragments of blackness crumbling into ash, but Aurora’s fire did not stop at him.It poured into the Root of Souls, rushing up its trunk, climbing its branches, sinking into every crack. The great tree shuddered violently, its roots tearing through the ground as millions of voices screamed together. “Child of fire! You cannot carry this! You will burn forever! Stop before it is too late!Aurora’s body shook, her flames burning hotter and hotter. Her skin blistered, her throat raw from screaming. She pressed both hands against the bark, forcing her fire deeper.“I won’t stop!” she cried, her tears vanishing in the heat. “I won’t let him rise again!”Through the flames, Vazquez staggered forward. His body was half-gone, his grin twisted, his silver eyes dimming. B
Chapter 98
Aurora’s breath came in short, broken gasps. She lay on the scorched ground, her body weak, her flames flickering like dying embers. Her skin was burned, her arms bleeding, her throat dry from screaming. She forced her eyes open.The Root of Souls was gone. Where the massive blackened tree had once stood, there was only emptiness, a hollow, endless pit stretching downward into nothing. The walls of the cavern still trembled, cracks spreading like spiderwebs, and Mason… Her heart squeezed painfully. He was gone too. Not even his fading silver glow remained.Aurora’s hand trembled as she reached toward the empty space, her voice a hoarse whisper. “Mason…”No answer came. Only silence. Her tears streamed down her face, dripping onto the scorched floor. She curled into herself, clutching her arms tightly. Her whole body shook. “I did it,” she whispered. “I chose. But why… why does it feel like I lost everything?”At first, all was quiet, then, whispers. Aurora froze, lifting her head s
Chapter 99
Aurora stood in the glowing field, her fists blazing weakly. The plain of star-like flowers stretched endlessly in every direction, but their light was dimming, one by one. The silver-and-fire sky flickered like a dying flame, and from the horizon, the laugh rose again. It was low. Broken. Familiar. Aurora’s chest tightened. “No!”The flowers wilted as a figure stepped forward, tall and jagged. His body was no longer smoke or shattered wings. It was something worse. Vazquez. But not the same as before.His form was now stitched together from shadows and fragments of silver chain, his limbs sharp, his chest glowing with a faint pulse of light. His grin was wider, steadier. His eyes burned not dim but bright, silver mixed with fire, her fire.Aurora’s heart dropped. Her flames sputtered. “What… what are you?”Vazquez spread his arms, his voice cruel and deep. “I am what you made me. You burned the Root, and I drank the ashes. You thought you ended me… but you only gave me a new form.”
Chapter 100
The smoke thickened around Aurora, black and heavy, curling like snakes across the ruined field.She staggered back, coughing, her fire flickering faintly in her palms. Her body trembled with exhaustion, her skin burned raw, her heart pounding as though it might tear itself apart.And then she heard it. That laugh. Low. Cruel. From the heart of the smoke, the sound spread like a sickness. “You cannot kill me, flame. Not while you carry them.”Aurora’s eyes widened, her breath caught in her throat. “No…”The smoke parted. Vazquez rose again. His form was sharper now, more solid. His broken wings had reshaped into jagged silver blades, his claws gleamed like obsidian. And in the center of his chest, a faint glow pulsed, not shadow this time, but fire. Her fire. Aurora’s stomach twisted. Her flames flared in panic. “That’s mine… you stole it…”Vazquez’s grin stretched wide, his silver-and-fire eyes burning bright. “I did not steal it. You gave it to me. Every time you burned, every time
