The morning sun was warm and bright. It shone through the large glass windows of the healing temple.The temple was called the Clinic of the Green Thread. It sat on top of a small hill in the center of the new city. The building was beautiful, but it was not perfect. It was made of brown wood, red clay, and smooth gray stones. Green vines covered the walls. Beautiful lotus flowers grew in clay pots by the front door.Inside the temple, the air smelled like two different worlds.On one side, it smelled like science. It smelled like strong, sharp alcohol, clean white soap, and boiled water. On the other side, it smelled like faith. It smelled like sweet incense, dried herbs, and the warm, electric feeling of magical Qi.Luna sat at a heavy wooden desk in the back room of the clinic.She looked out the window. She saw the sick people waiting in the courtyard. There were mothers holding crying babies. There were old men with coughing lungs. There were farmers with cuts on their hands.L

The carpenter looked at his bandaged leg. Tears of relief fell from his eyes. He smiled a big, messy smile. "Thank you, Headmaster. Thank you, Elian. I can feel my toes. It hurts, but it is a good hurt.""You are welcome," Luna smiled.This was the struggle of her new life. Many people still remembered the Heaven's Cure. They remembered the perfect blue light that took away all pain instantly. Sometimes, people begged Luna to just erase their pain.But Luna refused. She ran the temple with strict rules. She combined the hard, physical work of science with the warm, beautiful energy of magical faith. She taught her students that the body must be respected. Pain was a conversation. Healing was teamwork between the doctor and the patient.Luna washed her single hand in a bowl of warm water.She looked out the window. The bright morning sun was gone. Dark, heavy gray clouds were rolling over the green hills. The wind was picking up. The leaves on the trees shook violently."A storm is com

The man took one final, rattling breath. The iron veins completely covered his throat. His eyes rolled back. His body went completely stiff, heavy, and hard. He did not dissolve into dust. He turned into a solid statue of cold, dead, black iron.He was dead.The clinic was perfectly silent. The patients watched in horror.Luna knelt on the floor. She held the dirty leather pouch in her hand. Her hand was shaking so badly she could barely open the strings.She pulled open the pouch. She tipped it upside down.Two objects fell into her palm.The first object was a broken piece of wood. It was smooth and old. It was the top six inches of a wooden staff. The wood was splintered and cracked, like it had been smashed against something very hard.The second object made Luna let out a loud, broken sob.It was a piece of gray cloth. It was torn from the bottom of a familiar, dark gray coat.The cloth was stained with blood. The blood was not the black poison of the Heaven's Cure. It was not t

The rain was falling hard. It was cold, dark, and heavy. The wind howled through the trees around the Clinic of the Green Thread.Luna pulled her thick travel cloak tightly around her shoulders. She only had one arm, so she had to use her teeth to pull the thick leather strap tight across her chest. Her heavy medical bag hung by her side. It was full of clean bandages, strong alcohol, and sharp silver needles.She walked down the muddy path away from the clinic doors.Behind her, the clinic was warm and safe. The orange light from the oil lanterns spilled out of the broken windows. Inside, Elian was taking care of the patients. The dead iron wolves were nothing but piles of black ash on the floor.Luna did not look back. She kept her eyes on the road ahead.She was going to the East. She was going to the Dead Valleys. She was going to find Rick. The man who had just died in her clinic told her that Rick was bleeding. Rick was trapped in chains by a terrible cult called the Shadow Lo

The boy shook his head. "He is not safe. He is in the dark. He stayed behind so I could run."The boy looked at the glowing green lotus leaf in his hand. Then, he looked back at Luna."My master told me you would take care of me," the boy said. His quiet voice cut through the loud thunder. "My master told me you would teach me how to heal ghosts."Luna stared at the boy.Teach me how to heal ghosts.The cycle was beginning anew.Ten years ago, Rick had found a scared, broken girl with a terrible wound. He had taken her in. He had taught her that pain is a conversation. He had made her his partner. He had taught her how to heal.Now, Rick had found a scared, broken boy with silver eyes. And he had sent the boy to her. Rick wanted her to be the master now."Come inside," Luna cried, standing up quickly. She picked the little boy up with her one strong arm. He was incredibly light. He weighed almost nothing. "We have to get you warm. We have to get you out of this rain."Luna carried the

"What is that?" Elian asked in a panic. He wiped the boy's mouth with a cloth, but the cloth instantly turned stiff and hard, coated in the silver dust.Luna looked closely at the boy's chest.Underneath the thin, dirty gray shirt, she saw something glowing. She gently pulled the shirt open.Right over Silas's heart, there was a mark on his skin. It was a perfect, glowing green circle. Inside the circle, a small green lotus flower was drawn.It was a magical seal. It was a lock made of pure Earth Qi.But the green seal was cracking. Tiny lines of metallic silver were pushing through the green light. The silver poison was trying to break out of the magical cage."Oh, Rick," Luna whispered. Tears filled her eyes. She finally understood everything.She understood the core struggle. She understood the terrible, beautiful choice Rick had made.Rick did not just heal Silas from the Iron Rot. The Iron Rot inside this boy had mutated. It had turned into something new, something even worse. It

Blood did not flow from the tiny cut. Instead, a thick, heavy, sparkling silver paste began to ooze out of the wound. It looked like liquid mercury."It is so heavy," Luna whispered in shock. She used a clean white cloth to quickly wipe the silver paste away. As soon as the paste hit the cloth, it hardened into solid metal dust."Keep pushing, Elian!" Luna commanded. "You have to push the green light down, forcing the silver poison up and out of the cut!""It is fighting me!" Elian groaned. Sweat poured down his face. "The silver poison is cold! It is trying to freeze my magic!"Luna worked with incredible speed. With her one hand, she wiped the silver paste away, cleaned the cut with pure water, and used a long silver needle to keep the vein open. Her fingers moved like lightning. It was a beautiful, desperate dance of science.Across the table, Elian provided the faith. He poured his young, messy, passionate life energy into the boy's chest. He fought the cold silver poison with the

The sun sank low over the Salt Lake. It painted the sky in shades of deep purple, burnt orange, and soft pink.The lake was not deep. It was just a thin layer of crystal-clear water sitting on top of a massive bed of pure white salt. It looked like the biggest mirror in the world. When you looked down at your feet, you saw the sky looking right back up at you.Five years had passed since the Dawn of Renewal. Five years since the Ghost Doctor turned into pure light and healed the world.Elian stood at the edge of the water. He was not a scared teenage student anymore. He was twenty years old. He was tall, and his shoulders were broad. He wore a long, dark green coat, just like his master used to wear. He held a smooth wooden staff in his right hand.Elian was the Head Healer of the city now. Luna had left to find Rick in the East, and she had trusted Elian to protect the people.Standing next to Elian was Silas.Silas was thirteen years old. He was the boy who had arrived in the free

Elian watched his people. His heart filled with intense, burning pride. He was so glad he was a doctor. He was so glad he could help them carry their heavy memories. But then, the quiet night changed.The sweet smell of lotus flowers vanished. A sharp, bitter smell hit Elian’s nose. It smelled like cold iron and burning plastic. It was a smell that did not belong in the natural world.Silas stood up quickly. He grabbed Elian’s coat."Master Elian," Silas whispered. His voice was shaking with sudden fear. "Look at the water."Elian looked out at the center of the giant lake. The water was no longer perfectly still. It was shivering. Tiny ripples spread across the surface.And the lotuses were changing.In the very center of the lake, a patch of glowing green flowers began to dim. The bright, warm green light turned a sickly, pale gray. Then, the gray turned pitch black.The petals of the black lotuses shriveled up like dead leaves. With a soft hiss, the black flowers dissolved into dar

Elian’s blood boiled with intense, fiery anger. This man was trying to recreate Yuren's terrible disease. He was turning beautiful, sacred memories into a drug that erased the soul."I will not let you take their scars away," Elian said fiercely. "Healing is remembering!""Healing is forgetting!" Malakor screamed back.Malakor slammed his hand onto a large red button on his brass machine.The machine roared.The vacuum tube did not just suck in the flowers anymore. The machine suddenly blasted a wave of freezing, dark gray energy out across the water.Elian raised his staff to block the energy, but it was too fast. The gray wave hit Elian in the chest. Elian flew backward. He slid across the water and crashed hard onto the white salt.He tried to stand up, but his arms would not move. He looked down at his hands. His fingers were turning pale gray. He could not feel them. He could not feel the cold water. He could not feel the hard salt.The gray energy was called Null Qi. It did not
