They stared at the web in front of them with nothing short of terror. Try as They might, They couldn't look away, couldn't stop what was happening because it was the Will of the Creator and no amount of prayers and pleas would change that so They just stood and bore witness. It was all …

Eiod rubbed at his eyes and did a double take unable to believe that there was a presence in the far corner near the windows, tucked away in the deeper shadows of the hall outside the reach of the lantern light. Looked around to see if anyone else had noticed it but they were all …

It tucked itself into the deep shadows that pooled in the corners of the room as the sun set below the horizon and true night began to slowly creep across the Worlds. This was its favorite time of day, when light and darkness hovered on the sword's edge, when they jostled for control before one …

Azriel sighed heavily as he stood up and crossed the hall, following the soft but insistent call that had always drawn him to Rhyshladlyn.

Everything was chaos in her chest. So much so that it was hard to know what to feel first. Elation that it hadn't been her who had been chosen to be the Greywalker Rhyshladlyn made made her head swim. Something almost like jealousy wrapped barbed hands around the throat of confusion that blossomed alongside her …

Just like centuries ago in the audience hall of the palace in Ryphqi City, he moved without thinking about it. Called out Alaïs' name as he threw himself into harm's way to defend her. Moved on instincts honed across centuries of trauma, constant training, and the heightened need for self preservation. Didn't care about the …
