Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen: Fire Beneath the Abyss
Jason and Aria plunged. No more falling through silence. This was different. The void split apart above them, sealing shut like a wound as they were hurled downward, into fire.But not their fire. Not white. Not silver. This fire was black. It roared like an ocean of screaming voices, each wave a surge of molten despair. It smelled of ash, of rot, of centuries burned and forgotten.Every lick of flame clawed at their skin, tearing, not scorching but unraveling, as if trying to strip their souls bare.Jason clutched Aria tighter, his fire straining to shield them both. But the black inferno chewed at the barrier, swallowing sparks as fast as he made them.“Jason” Aria gasped, her silver light flickering like a candle in storm winds. “This… isn’t just fire.”He felt it too. Every ember carried weight. History. Suffering. Memory. Each flame was a life extinguished, a soul consumed by the abyss and trapped forever in this furnace.The abyss wasn’t only hunger. It was a graveyard. The fire
Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen: The Hunger
Jason fell. No air. No ground. No sense of up or down. Only falling, endless, consuming, infinite.The void swallowed him whole, dragging his body through currents of nothingness, a black tide that pressed against his skin, pierced his bones, clawed at his soul. And in his arms, Aria.Her body trembled with faint silver light, flickering like a star about to die. Her breath shallow, her lips pale, but her hand gripped his chest still, refusing to let go even as the abyss screamed around them.Jason’s fire burned weakly, a fragile white spark against the endless dark. The abyss pressed against it, hungering, devouring, trying to smother it out.And for the first time, Jason realized, this wasn’t just emptiness. It was alive. The darkness whispered as they fell. “You are mine.”“Your fire was born of me.”“Every flame, every spark, every soul, it all returns here.”The words tore through his mind, not spoken but branded. Jason gritted his teeth, shielding Aria with his body, his fire la
Chapter One Hundred and Twelve: Between Fire and Void
Jason opened his eyes to silence. Not the silence of peace. The silence of absence. No fire. No roar. No storm. No shadow. Only void.He sat up slowly, every muscle screaming, his skin cracked with light. Around him stretched an endless expanse of black glass, fractured and sharp, spreading forever in all directions. Above, no sky, no stars. Only darkness, yawning and absolute. And beside him, Aria.She lay still, her chest rising faintly, her body surrounded by faint silver light, flickering like a candle nearly extinguished.Jason’s heart lurched. He crawled to her, his hands trembling as he lifted her head into his lap. “Aria… Aria, wake up.”No answer. Her lips were pale, her breath weak. Jason’s throat tightened. He had brought her into this. She had leapt into his fire for him, risked everything, no, given everything, and now she was fading.“Please,” he whispered, his voice breaking. His forehead pressed to hers, his tears sizzling as they fell. “Don’t leave me. Not now. Not af
Chapter One Hundred and Eleven: Ashes of the Soul
The light faded. Aria opened her eyes, only to find there was no world left. She stood in a wasteland of fire and smoke, ground crumbling beneath her feet into endless black void.Above her, no sky, only a storm of white and gold flames clashing, tearing holes into reality itself. Jason and the shadow.She could barely make out their forms anymore, their bodies nothing but streaks of light locked in violent collision. Every time they struck, the world itself shook, and pieces of it fell away into nothingness.And each time Jason’s fire flared, more of his body vanished, burning away like paper in a furnace. Aria’s heart raced, her chest heaving. She screamed over the roar of flame:“Jason! Stop, you’ll destroy yourself!”But he didn’t stop. He couldn’t hear her anymore. The shadow’s voice thundered, layered with Jason’s own.“You cannot win. You are breaking. You are ash already.”Jason roared in answer, hurling himself forward, striking with all the force of his unraveling fire. Thei
Chapter One Hundred and Ten: The Mirror of Fire
Jason stared at his double. It wasn’t like looking in a mirror. It was worse. The other Jason’s smile was sharp, wrong, his eyes hollow pits of gold flame that stretched endlessly inward, like staring into the heart of a star. And that voice, his own voice, but twisted, resonant, godlike.“Why suffer, when you can rule?”Aria pulled closer to Jason, her fingers clutching his arm. Her nails dug into his burned skin, and he didn’t even flinch.His body was numb now. The fire had eaten his nerves. But her touch grounded him, dragged him back from the abyss for as long as he could hold.“Jason,” she whispered, voice shaking. “It’s not real. Don’t let him, don’t let it take you.”His double tilted its head, golden flames trailing like ribbons. “She lies. This is the truth. Look.”The burning horizon shifted. The world screamed. Cities collapsed in waves of fire. Oceans boiled away until only charred basins remained. Skies cracked open to reveal nothing but lightless void.Everywhere Jason
Chapter One Hundred and Nine: Ashes of Sacrifice
Aria couldn’t breathe. The air was fire, every gasp tearing her lungs raw. Her arms shook as she clawed at the molten ground, dragging herself forward despite the agony screaming through her body.“Jason ” her voice cracked, broken, desperate. “Jason!”Her hands slipped on the glowing stone, skin peeling, blood hissing as it hit the heat. But she didn’t stop. She couldn’t. Somewhere in that ocean of fire, he had to be there. He had to.Her vision blurred, her ember long gone, leaving nothing but raw, human flesh to burn. The gold light above her spiraled, twisting into something vast, monstrous. And then the laughter came.Low, resonant, rolling across the cavern like thunder. “The vessel is ash. The cage broken. I endure.”The First Ember rose from the flames, no longer a god in chains but a storm given shape. Its body was no longer humanoid, wings of molten fire stretched outward, its head a blazing crown, its chest a hollow sun where Jason’s light had burned through.It was bigger
