I don’t—
“You.”
The God’s voice slices through the stillness.
I spin back to face him.
His ancient eyes burn into mine — and for the first time, something like fury twists his weathered features.
“You dared to bring themhere?”
The words thunder through my bones. Through the bonds. Through everything I am.
Behind me, Torric’s fire flares. Aspen’s frost crackles. Finn’s chaos sparks wild and desperate.
The God takes a step toward me.
Reality bends.
I don’t step back.
I plant my feet. Spread my wings. Let the power still coursing through my veins rise to meet him.
I don’t know what’s coming.
I don’t know if I can survive it.
But I’m done running.
I lift my chin.
And I face the God of Chaos.
