Ch-133
The memory vault closed behind Nathan with a low, thunderous hum. The echo of the long-dead Sovereign King's warning still rang in his bones: “She wanted eternity. And now she’s made it bleed.”Outside the monastery, the sky was no longer calm. Static shivered across the horizon. Communications faltered. The world beyond was changing, fast.Nathan stepped out into the courtyard, wind clawing at his coat. Harper met him with grim eyes and a satellite tablet in hand.“You need to see this,” she said.The screen lit up.Blackouts, crashes and panic everywhere._________At 4:03 AM GMT, Frankfurt’s power grid failed, triggering a cascade of market closures across the EU. Twelve minutes later, New York’s stock index froze, before blinking red with mass liquidation. In Jakarta, satellites went dark mid-orbit. São Paulo’s metro systems collapsed in sync, stranding millions. Mumbai’s water purification facilities shut down. Tokyo’s central AI hospital coordination unit began dispensing fatal
Ch-132
Volkov’s body had been airlifted to a neutral zone under rebel watch, his mind still fragile but his ring now inert. Nathan had barely spoken since. Marion’s name had returned to the center of every strategy board. But Volkov’s final words wouldn’t leave him: “She was never working alone.” Elsewhere, Miko traced ancient symbols through seismic readings and half-deciphered shrine texts. Threads all pointed to a single forgotten tomb—beneath Mount Aso. If the truth of the rings lay anywhere, it was there. ________ A sulfurous mist clung to the foothills of Mount Aso as the team approached the slope by nightfall. Trees swayed under strange winds. No birds called. No crickets sang. It was as if the mountain itself held its breath. Miko led the way. The readings from the Vision ring had been consistent for days—flickers of ancient language pulsing only when they neared volcanic fault lines. Deep beneath the sleeping fire of Aso was something older than the land that bore it. They

The Ring of Unity was safe… for now, but the vision of Volkov haunted Harper long after Cairo’s skyline vanished behind their retreating convoy. She hadn’t told Nathan everything. Not about how Volkov looked at her. Not about the way he whispered to the wind.Nathan didn’t press. He already knew.The rings were converging.And Volkov was too far gone to leave unchecked.So Nathan followed the resonance trail alone—through ruins east of Lviv, into the mountains, and up toward the skeletal remains of a forgotten fortress that had once housed kings, and now only housed ghosts.The Dominion Ring pulsed on his hand as he crossed its threshold.Volkov was waiting.________The fortress was a carcass of stone, devoured by time and ice. Frost clung to the archways like white rot. Great halls sagged into rubble. And at its center where once banners had flown and soldiers had sworn fealty…someone was standing. Volkov.Or what was left of him.He wore no armor, no insignia. His coat hung in tat
Ch-130
The Syndicate lieutenant’s intel was an entire map of his confessions.There were hidden vaults, strange energy surges, two distinct pulses confirmed by rebel seers and artifact readers.Two rings, and two fronts to manage. Nathan had no time to debate, and stayed behind to stabilize rebel alliances.Volkov, who was already fraying at the seams, had been dispatched east.Harper and Miko went south.______Eastern Ukraine, near Pripyat…The wind howled through shattered concrete shells of the dead city. Volkov stepped over the scorched rebar, his boots crunching bone-dry frost. The radiation here had faded decades ago, but the memory of catastrophe still clung to the ruins like a ghost.Behind him, two Syndicate enforcers checked their perimeter, but Volkov ignored them. He could feel it… there was something deep underground, humming in frequencies only his frayed mind could interpret.The Ring of Null pulsed against his spine like a second heart.He muttered as he moved, twitching fi
Ch-129
The memory of Marvel’s battle clung to Nathan long after he left the vault. The resonance technique haunted him, not just because it worked, but because it required empathy even in battle. Dominion wasn’t just about force, it was about the weight of the decision.Now, as he descended into the rebel base’s lower tunnels, that lesson loomed large.A Syndicate lieutenant had been captured near the outskirts, one of Marion’s field commanders. Not just a bureaucrat. A man who had ordered entire villages disappeared.Interrogation was expected… but Nathan had another method.______The underground cell was little more than concrete, rust, and recycled air. Fluorescent lights flickered like dying fireflies. A single metal chair was bolted to the floor beneath a thin beam of light. The man was seated inside; mid-thirties, lean, blood drying at his temple, didn’t speak. His hands were cuffed, his eyes were cold. Nathan stepped into the room alone… no guards, no restraints, just the ring.“Nam
Ch-128
Zurich had fallen quiet behind them, but Nathan carried its echoes through every corridor of the monastery. Ethan was humiliated. The Syndicate’s grip on biotech had slipped. But Nathan couldn’t shake the cold certainty behind Selene’s warning: they were still hunting the Seventh Ring.And he needed answers from deeper than any scroll could give.That night, Tenzin led him through a carved stone passage in the eastern wing, sealed with warded iron and elder runes that hummed faintly when Nathan approached.The ring on his hand pulsed like a heartbeat.Only blood could open what came next._____The hidden vault was carved under the oldest roots of the monastery, a cavern carved before language had names for light. The chamber shimmered faintly with ring-forged glyphs, etched into obsidian pillars that reached skyward into shadow. Six archways, each inscribed with a different ring’s symbol, surrounded a raised platform in the center.But only one responded to Nathan.Dominion.Tenzin
