The ocean screamed. Each wave that rose and fell was not just water but the cries of countless souls, their voices shrieking as fire and shadow collided above.

The surface boiled where Aurora’s flames touched it, then froze to black ice where Vazquez’s shadow spread.

Aurora stood on the trembling sea, her body wrapped in fire, her chest heaving. Every breath burned, every heartbeat thundered like war drums.

Mason hung further away, chained, sinking inch by inch toward the abyss. His voice cracked as he shouted, “Aurora! Don’t, don’t lose yourself!”

Aurora’s eyes never left Vazquez. Her voice was sharp, raw, filled with rage. “If I burn away, I’ll burn you with me.”

Vazquez’s grin stretched unnaturally wide, his silver eyes glowing like two cruel suns. His monstrous wings of shattered glass cut the sky open with each beat.

His voice rolled like thunder. “Burn, then. The more you fight, the brighter your despair.”

He lunged. His clawed hand ripped through the air, shadow trailing like

    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

    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

    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

    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 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
