He would have shoved her straight to the ground if Peter Stonewell hadn't spoken.“Is she with your Blackwood family?”Tyler paused mid-motion, and one of his uncles answered quickly. “No. That's the useless child we took in fifteen years ago. If we had known she wo

The group held their formation for several moments, weapons raised as the freezing wind continued pushing snow across the open wilderness.Nothing appeared.Rowan remained at the front with her sword ready, her attention fixed on the empty expanse ahead. Whatever she had sensed was apparently still close enough to keep her on guard.Then something changed.The tension in her stance gradually eased, and she lowered the tip of her sword with a strange expression.“Where did it go?”The women exchanged confused looks.Iris had stepped onto a broad sheet of exposed ice while the others remained ankle-deep in the surrounding snow. She turned towards Rowan and asked, “Senior Sister, is everything alright?”None of the women noticed the thin crack spreading across the ice behind her.Elijah did.The line appeared near Iris’s heel and travelled rapidly beneath the frozen surface.He

Elijah was briefly caught off guard by the question, but he recovered almost immediately.“Am I?”It was the same answer he had given Iris back in the Heart-Corrupting Forest when she asked whether he was a healer.The seriousness on her face made this question far stranger.Iris continued looking at him for a moment without explaining what had prompted the question. Eventually, she turned away with a complicated expression and began following her sisters through the snow.Elijah moved after her.They had not gone far when Iris wrapped both arms more tightly around herself and hesitantly asked, “Do you think Mother will be alright?”Elijah almost answered without thinking.A Grandmaster was not someone who could be taken down easily, even by another Grandmaster. The words were already on the edge of his tongue when he remembered what Iris had asked him only moments ago.Explaining what he knew

Meanwhile, back in East Sorevia, far from Brooklyn Heights...For the first few minutes, Elijah Langston and the women of the Zenith Sisterhood could do little more than stand where they were and stare across the frozen wilderness surrounding them.No one seemed capable of making sense of what they were seeing.Several of the younger disciples were visibly shivering, their teeth chattering as they hugged their arms closer to their bodies.Even Elijah was beginning to feel it.One of the junior disciples eventually broke the silence. “Senior Sister Rowan… where are we?”Every eye turned towards Rowan.She opened her mouth to answer, but another look across the endless fields of ice and distant glacial mountains left her with nothing to say.Galecrest was not a snow island.When Rowan finally looked back towards the group, her gaze passed across the other disciples before settling on Elijah and Iris.

The old man placed his empty glass back on the table.“I have a business to inspect in an hour.”George raised his head. “I’m not afraid. The Good Doctor already trusted me with the truth about his identity. Whatever is happening, I can handle knowing about it.”Old Mr. Carrington paused before a bitter smile gradually appeared on his face.“Children always speak boldly about the monster beneath the bed, at least until the day they finally stand face-to-face with whatever was truly hiding there.”George stared at him, completely unable to make sense of the warning.The old man turned towards the door but stopped once more. “There are people and forces in this world far bigger than Brooklyn Heights, George. You have a family, don’t you?”George’s expression became more guarded.“Do you really want to drag them into dangers they were never meant to know existed?”The question wiped away some of the stubbo

Inside a private lounge at West Crest Restaurant in the West District, billionaire George Foster sat across a small table from Old Mr. Carrington, who quietly drank a glass of liquor while listening to one side of a phone conversation.“…which must be made possible. Decide on something before the day runs out,” George said firmly into the phone. “We have to bring Ms. DiLaurentis back for another interview, or we take the interview to her if that’s what it comes to.”He listened for several seconds before his expression tightened.“The Boss might not be around right now, but that doesn’t mean we disappoint him. Are we suddenly incapable of carrying out an instruction because he isn’t standing over our shoulders?”Another response came from the other end, prompting George to shake his head.“The Boss’s trip is private, and even I don’t know where he went. What I do know is that he gave us objectives before leaving, and those objectives must

Lisa fell silent, but Margaret continued without giving her a chance to respond.“It is my job as Serena’s mother to worry about her health, not yours. If I say my daughter is healthy, then she is healthy. Your job is to keep her focused on her work and stop filling her head with nonsense.”Lisa looked back towards the Audi, where Serena still sat with her head lowered.“I understand.”“Good. I’m hanging up.”“Wait.”Margaret paused impatiently.Lisa hesitated for a moment before asking the question that had been sitting in her mind.“Does any of this have something to do with Julius? Ms. DiLaurentis still doesn’t seem to remember anything about him after the accident,” Lisa continued. “She doesn’t remember him at all.”“You mind your damn business!” Margaret exploded so loudly that Lisa had to pull the phone slightly away from her ear.“My daughter doesn’t remember that trash, and that is the
