THE SEALED GATE

POV: Ceres

The Codex would not stop glowing.

Even after Arion’s capture. Even after the pyres were lit in Hollowfen, Xavier’s soldiers sang war songs under flame-drenched skies. Even after she had scrubbed her hands raw, she tried to feel clean.

It kept glowing.

And humming.

Like something beneath the ink was awake.

Ceres sat cross-legged in the Dreamflame Chamber, the Codex spread open before her, its language shifting with each flicker of candlelight. The Flame didn’t

    THE CHOICE OF THE CHILDPOV: Ceres / Xavier / Nya (Vision Realms)The Dreamflame Temple—DuskThe Codex pulsed on the altar like a living wound.Ceres stood in front of it, silent, her hands folded before her. Xavier stood behind her, arms crossed, jaw tense. Kaelenna, Maera, and the remaining Ember Council ringed the flame chamber in wary silence, as if waiting for thunder to follow lightning.The Codex had opened on its own. Again.Its pages no longer held written prophecy.They held reflections.Moving images of fire, past and present—battles, births, the old kings, the vanished queens, and the child walking barefoot through the ruins of a burning world.Ceres whispered, "It's calling her."Maera nodded. "Or she's calling it."Xavier took a step forward. "And what happens if she answers?"Before anyone could respond, the flame altar convulsed—once, then again, bursting into a flare of white-gold fire. The heat did not burn, but it was summoned.Then came the voice.Not loud. Not fri

    THE FATHER’S GHOSTPOV: XavierNight clung to the ruins of Hollowfen like a second skin.Xavier stood alone beneath the scorched arch of the keep’s fallen tower, the distant embers of war still glowing beyond the trees. His blade leaned beside him, half-buried in ash. Around him, the battlefield had fallen silent—but not quiet. The kind of silence that held breath, waited for something unsaid.He hadn’t slept since Ceres stepped through the Sealed Gate. Not properly. Even now, he hadn’t told her what he’d seen, what he kept seeing.He closed his eyes, and there it was again

    MIRROR OF FIREPOV: CeresThe fire was not outside her anymore.It was inside.Since returning from the Sealed Gate, Ceres hadn’t slept. Couldn’t sleep. The Codex no longer glowed. It breathed. The scrolls in the Ember Library flared and curled when she passed. Her skin, bare beneath her ceremonial silk, shimmered faintly in the dark.But it wasn’t power. Not anymore.It was unbinding.Ceres stood in the inner sanctum of the Dreamflame Sanctuary, the flame altar burning steadily be

    The Battle of HollowfenPOV: XavierThe air thickened as they reached the edge of Hollowfen. The fog curled low, dragging itself across the ground like wounded breath. Trees stood like broken sentinels, twisted and clawing at the sky. The ground squelched beneath hooves, and the stench of iron, old magic, and death clung to every breath.Xavier pulled his horse to a slow halt and scanned the horizon. “This place smells of old war.”“It is old war,” said Commander Veyna, riding beside him, her voice muffled slightly behind her helm. “They say the first Fla

    RISE OF THE UNNAMED FLAMEThe Whispering Hollow | Outskirts of FlamewatchThe morning was unremarkable.The dew clung to the moss. The air smelled of pine and petrichor. But something was missing—not visibly, not physically. Just… gone.Ceres stepped into the grove, her breath caught in the stillness. This was where Nya was last seen—kneeling among the ash trees, fingers pressed to the earth, whispering to something no one else could hear.Now, only the imprint of her presence remained. Not footprints. Not heat.Just a feeling i
