Salcan's POV

I had waited for the General since the first light of dawn, just like he requested, and still, that wretch didn't grace me with his presence. The moment the sun took its position in the sky, I realised that I had been made to stand idle like some abandoned rogue. It wasn't disrespectful.

My Gammas stood beside me, stiff and obedient, none daring to ask why we were heading back to the Moonblessed lands.

“I should never have listened to that fool,” I murmured, my voice low with conte

    Lira's POVI came here because the moon goddess told me that I need to understand the full extent of my power, I said firmly, my voice trembling slightly, but carrying the weight of my resolve. I didn’t know what the figure before me would do, or what role they had in all of this, but I knew that I had not arrived here by accident. Every step I had taken, every loss I had endured, had led me to this very moment. I need to save my people. I need to save everyone. That’s what I had constantly heard echoing in my mind, but the how of it had always been shrouded in uncertainty. I had tried before, I had worked so hard, and yet, I had lost so much along the way.Tears began rolling down my cheeks as I spoke, the pain of my journey pressing heavily against my chest. If you can feel it, my legs have been damaged, I said, my voice breaking. Divine has taken away my ability to walk. She has taken my strength, my freedom, and so much more than just my physical mobility. I don’t understand why D

    Alia's POV The moment my father spoke, the words about Divine controlling him, he immediately went unconscious again. My heart skipped, and fear gripped me so tightly it felt like my chest was going to explode. Why was she trying to take him? Why was she trying to control his body? The questions spun in my mind faster than I could think.“You, you!” I stammered, pointing at two of my father’s men. “Get the machines. Make sure his heart keeps beating. Make sure nothing comes between his heart and those machines. If anything happens, I will be really, really pissed at you!”I was speaking so fast I barely understood my own words. Impulsively, I barked orders and tried to push back the panic rising in me. I had no one to guide me. Lyra wasn’t here. No one was around to tell me that it would be okay, that I could handle this, that my father could be saved. My support system was gone, and I felt completely alone.I stepped out of the chamber and began pacing back and forth. To and fro, to

    Lira's POV Are you certain of what you saw? Damian asked, his voice calm but probing. Yes, I’m sure. I saw it clearly, I said, my voice low and steady, though my mind still swirled with confusion. But I don’t know why it is the first thing that your master is trying to show me. I lifted my head slowly towards Carlos, searching for some explanation in his eyes. Neither do I, he admitted, his brow furrowed slightly. But if my master is trying to show you that, it means that it is significant. It is significant in understanding exactly what she wants you to do, or what you’re going to achieve through her. I suggest you continue to try to reach forward. At least now you’re getting answers to your questions, just like I told you. He gave me a small, encouraging smile. I turned my head towards Damian, my eyes meeting his. I want to go in again, I said, my voice firm despite the ache in my body, irrespective of the pain. She is giving me a reason to continue reaching, to go further. A

    Lira's POV As I placed my hand on the skeleton of Carlos's master, a sharp, immediate pain shot through my legs and hands. It was intense, a burning, twisting sensation that made me want to pull away immediately. At one point, I couldn’t feel my hands at all. My legs felt like they didn’t belong to me, and it was almost impossible to stay connected. But I forced myself to push a little further. I tried to drift, like I always would during a spiritual connection, but it wasn’t working. The pain grew unbearable. I yanked my hand away and pressed both hands against my chest, trying to steady my racing heart. “What’s wrong?” Damien asked, kneeling beside me, concern etched into his face. “I can’t,” I gasped. “It’s too painful. I’m… I’m feeling a lot of pain.” Carlos’ voice broke through the tension, calm and almost dismissive. “Oh, well, that’s just how it feels at the beginning.” Damien’s head shot up, and he gave Carlos an angry, hard look. “You didn’t explain any of this to us! I

    Lira's POV My mind was still spinning as I tried to process exactly what Carlos was telling us. It didn’t make immediate sense. He was saying that we had to connect with his master spiritually before we actually met her. That felt strange. Normally, spiritual connections were more... direct, at least the way I had done them before. But Carlos seemed certain, and there was no arguing with the way he spoke. “So are you saying that we—” I paused, trying to choose my words carefully, “as opposed to seeing her first, need to connect with your master spiritually?” I asked. “Yes, exactly,” Carlos replied, calm and certain. “She is ancient. I wouldn’t even call her our ‘ancient sorceress.’ She is the one who has kept this place alive for centuries. She is the one who has worked for a long time to create a peaceful place such as this. And it is very important that you meet her because she must explain everything herself. Nothing will make sense if you only hear about it secondhand.” I

    Divine's POV No, no! I screamed. Everything was falling apart. The perfectly crafted plan that I had spent so long preparing, every detail calculated, every contingency accounted for—it wasn’t working. Nothing was working. I could not reach Lord Marco. Every attempt I made to slide into his mind, to push my way past his defenses, was met with resistance. He was fighting me, hard. The more I tried, the more I felt my control slipping. I knew the moment I gained control over his body, everything else would follow. I could get closer to Aaliyah, finally reach into her mind, take hold of her essence, and only then would I have the path open to Lyra’s body. But that pathway was crumbling right before me. My years of preparation, my accumulation of dark power, it all seemed to unravel in an instant. The dark magic I had always relied on, the force that had allowed me to bend wills and claim bodies, was backfiring. Instead of giving me strength, it tore at me, draining me, showing me the
