CHAPTER 82

The bathroom was quiet.

Steam curled from the tiled floor and fogged up the wide mirror. Elias sat on the edge of the tub, hands limp at his sides, blood drying in thin patterns on his arms and chest. It was their blood — the emissaries. The fools who came with holy daggers and warnings and left in pieces.

His eyes were glassy as he stood, stripped off his ruined clothes, and stepped into the shower. Water blasted over him, red spiraling down the drain. He tilted his head back.

He couldn’t feel it. Not the warmth. Not the sting of soap. Not even the aftermath of what he’d done.

The pressure built first behind his eyes — a throbbing pain, dull and low.

Then it bloomed sharp and fast across his skull.

He hissed, gripping the edge of the wall as his knees buckled.

“Shit—”

The pain seared through him like fire licking his brain. Then it cracked open.

Suddenly, the water was gone.

He stood on marble, vast and golden, under a sky the color of dusk. Pillars rose around him in perf

  • Lucian's Undoing    CHAPTER 150

    EPILOGUE Twenty years changed the world.The war was now a memory spoken only in quiet rooms, in old songs, in the mouths of historians who still couldn’t quite understand how one god, one man, had rewritten fate.Elias—Valarieth—watched the world grow.Not as its ruler.Not as its judge.But as its guardian.As himself.The Hall of Ascendancy had been rebuilt—but not in marble and gold. Elias tore down the old pillars, the symbols of corruption and control.What stood now was simple:A wide open courtyard.A sky untouched by lies.A gathering place for all realms.Children of every species played there—winged, fanged, magic-touched, mortal-born.Elias stood at the top of the courtyard steps watching them, cloak fluttering in the soft afternoon breeze.He heard footsteps behind him.“You’re brooding,” Lucian said.Elias didn’t turn. “I’m observing. There’s a difference.”Lucian laughed. “Brooding with extra steps.”Elias finally looked over his shoulder, eyebrow raised. “Did you come

  • Lucian's Undoing    CHAPTER 149

    The void trembled.Elias stood before the throne of bones, the air around him heavy with death. The glyphs across his skin blazed with radiant fury, casting golden light across the shattered cliff. Behind him, the stars bled.Nihareth rose from the throne with a serene kind of madness, his voice echoing like a fractured hymn. “You came alone. How poetic. And predictable.”“I didn’t,” Elias whispered.The light behind him split open with a deafening crack—a beam of starlight collapsing into the form of Lucian, sword drawn, eyes burning.“Found you,” Lucian growled, stepping beside Elias. “Could’ve left a trail that didn’t reek of melodrama.”Another pulse of magic slammed down from above.Dorian landed in a storm of dark feathers, flames curling around his fists. “Oh, we’re absolutely in hell now.”“Kai?” Elias turned slightly.“I’m here!” Kai called, racing up the ridge, his coat already smoking with unstable glyphlight.A final burst of wind and leaves signaled Kairis’s arrival, Amar

  • Lucian's Undoing    CHAPTER 148

    CHAPTER 148The skies turned red by morning.Elias stood at the cliff's edge, overlooking a sea of ash. Smoke curled in the horizon. The scent of blood clung to the air.He didn’t speak for a long time.Behind him, Lucian stepped out.“They’re back,” he said quietly. “Kairis sent scouts to check the ruins. There’s nothing left.”Elias didn’t move. “Which village?”Lucian didn’t answer immediately.Then, with guilt in his voice: “The one near the eastern pass. The one you stayed in during your exile.”Elias’s hands clenched at his sides.“The one with the shrine?”Lucian nodded.“They took me in when I was no one,” Elias said, voice cold. “When the gods called me unworthy. When you turned your back.”Lucian flinched but didn’t interrupt.“I gave them a barrier. It should’ve held for a hundred years.”“It did,” Lucian said. “Until Nihareth sent the corrupted.”Elias finally turned.His eyes were hard, burning with a barely restrained fire.“Corrupted?”Lucian nodded grimly. “Souls of fa

  • Lucian's Undoing    CHAPTER 147

    CHAPTER 147The Hall had fallen silent again.. The judgment was complete.But Elias was gone.He had walked out without a word, through the towering gates of the Hall, down the winding marble paths, past the kneeling celestials and the stunned scholars. No one stopped him.He walked until the marble ended and the wild sky began—until he reached the old Garden of Stars.It was overgrown now. Wild.Vines wrapped around broken statues. The pool at the center reflected constellations long dead. And above it all, the sky bled faint gold as if remembering something it could never fully recall.Elias stood there, still glowing faintly. But the glyphs across his skin flickered, unstable. Sharp. Like something inside him was cracking.He sat down slowly by the water. Head bowed.And for the first time in centuries, he wept.Not because he was weak.But because he remembered everything.“I failed them.”His whisper was quiet. Not for anyone else. Just for the sky. For the ghosts.“I failed mys

  • Lucian's Undoing    CHAPTER 146

    CHAPTER 146The air cracked.Elias staggered back, a sharp cry ripping from his throat. The glyphs etched across his skin pulsed violently—white, then gold, then violet. His eyes rolled back as his body seized.Celestials gasped.Some collapsed in reverence. Others shielded their faces.Cassiel didn’t move.Erelah whispered, “It’s happening…”Raziel took a cautious step back. “No one touch him.”Elias’s body hit the marble floor hard—but only for a second. Then he floated. Hovered. Glyphs peeled off his skin like molten fire and circled the air. The floor cracked beneath him.Then—He rose.His eyes opened, blazing with layered light—threefold. His voice echoed, not in one tongue, but three: the language of gods, the hidden tongue of the Celestial Thrones, and the first language of creation itself.He pointed, hand trembling not from weakness—but from restraint.“Cassiel—Betrayer of Kin.”Cassiel’s mask cracked. His eyes widened, lips parting slightly—but he said nothing.The voice ro

  • Lucian's Undoing    CHAPTER 145

    CHAPTER 145The Hall of Ascendancy shimmered like a mirage in the sky.Built from celestial stone, veined with stardust and prayer, it rose high above the world—untouched by time, war, or decay. Towers gleamed with radiant light. Massive doors carved with the names of every god long fallen opened as Elias approached.And beyond them—thousands.Celestials. Ancients. Highborns. Seraphim. Shadows reborn in light. All of them kneeling as one, heads bowed, wings folded in reverence.“Valarieth,” they whispered. “The Flame Returned.”Elias walked in silence, each step echoing like a thunderclap through the hallowed chamber. His golden robes flowed behind him, a storm of glyphs trailing like fire through the air. His eyes—no longer mortal—glowed bright enough to rival the sun overhead.Lucian wasn’t beside him.And he hadn't spoken a word since the last battle.Amaria stood at the base of the altar.She wore full ceremonial armor now, her crown of stars dimmer than usual, her face carved fro
