By the third day of our march, the frozen black cliffs of the Valley of Sighs were slowly disappearing behind us.

The landscape gradually softened. The barren fields of ice and merciless northern winds gave way to vast forests of ancient pine trees covered in snow.

The army of ten thousand, winding like a serpent along the mountain roads, presented a sight unlike anything the empire had ever witnessed.

    EiraBy the third day of our march, the frozen black cliffs of the Valley of Sighs were slowly disappearing behind us.The landscape gradually softened. The barren fields of ice and merciless northern winds gave way to vast forests of ancient pine trees covered in snow.The army of ten thousand, winding like a serpent along the mountain roads, presented a sight unlike anything the empire had ever witnessed.The soldiers of the Southern Legion, who had once marched in the king's black and gold armor, now walked beside the freed prisoners of the eastern mines and the savage, fur clad warriors of the mountain clans.Distrust still lingered among the ranks.I saw the suspicious glances exchanged around the campfires and heard the hushed arguments, but discipline held.No one dared draw a weapon against another.Not only because of General Vane's strict orders and the authority of Rurik, the clan leader, but also because of the two gigantic shadows moving

    Eira In the thick, sulfurous steam of the volcanic chamber, morning arrived not with light, but with a subtle change in temperature. I lay beneath the heavy fur blankets, every inch of my body weighed down by the exhausting physical and magical trials of the previous days. Yet a deep, unfamiliar peace spread through my bones, a tranquility I had never known before. The runes of the Ancient Focus on my skin, the emerald green and midnight black vines stretching from my collarbone all the way down to my left thigh, no longer burned. They pulsed softly in a quiet rhythm matching my heartbeat, blending with the breathing of the man lying behind me. Zade's chest was pressed against my back. His arm encircled my waist with the strength of an iron grip, yet with infinite care, his hand resting directly on my stomach. I could feel the scorching dragonfire radiating from his skin, a warmth that could have protected me even

    Zade Our kiss tasted of ash, blood, and a scorched sky. When I slowly, reluctantly pulled away from Eira's lips, the world around us was still frozen in the surreal, silent paralysis left behind by the destruction of the Twin Flame. At the entrance to the gorge, molten obsidian hissed and glowed red in the freezing wind, sending columns of black steam toward the gray sky. Where my father, the dreaded King Toric, and his enormous red dragon, Balerion, had stood only minutes earlier, there was nothing left. Just a gaping, glass-scorched crater where the shattered ice barricade had once been. And twenty paces away, another smoking depression that had swallowed Caspian. It was over. Decades of poison, murderous intrigues woven through the palace's dark corridors, the lashes of whips, and the commands enforced through blood magic had all burned to nothing in a single blinding storm of green and black fire. The woman in my arms suddenly trembled. I immediately looked down at her. Eira's

    EiraThe rocky ledge didn't simply tilt beneath our feet. The ancient obsidian wall of the Black Glaciers surrendered to destruction with a deafening scream."Hold on to me!" Zade roared.Before the stone could completely slip from beneath my boots, he wrapped his free arm around my waist and pulled me against him.In the fraction of a second before we fell, Noctis spread both his enormous wings.On his left wing, where I had just fused the shattered bone with my own ether, emerald green runes blazed between the black scales.The dragon didn't fall.He glided downward, sailing through a rain of boulders and shards of ice crashing against the cliff face, descending into the smoke and dust filled depths of the gorge.Zade and I leaped from his back almost simultaneously, barely a few yards before our feet reached the frozen, blood soaked ground.The force of the landing shot through my knees, but the runes of the Ancient Focus immediately absorbed t

    EiraThe storm clouds didn't simply part above our heads. It was as though the sky itself had been torn in two to make way for hell.In the narrow canyon of the Black Glaciers, the air froze in a single second, only to turn immediately into suffocating, sulfurous heat.Behind us, the dull thunder of the ice mountains Kaelen had brought crashing down still echoed through the gorge. The solid barricade had sealed the passage against the infantry of the Southern Legion, but no one looked back.We were all staring upward, toward the three enormous shadows that blotted out the bloodred dawn.Zade's hand tightened around my wrist with such force that the runes burned into my skin immediately flared beneath the pressure.Through our bond, I felt the prince's icy realization rising within him, followed instantly by raw, murderous fury.Beside us, Noctis pressed himself low against the ground.An ominous, earthquake deep growl erupted from the enormous black dragon's throat, making even the ob

    ZadeThe sky didn't simply collapse above us. Thousands upon thousands of tons of frozen magic came crashing down upon the Valley.When Kaelen's ice shield exploded high overhead, the shock wave tore across the battlefield with such brutal force that it drove the air from my lungs.Blinding shards of bluish-gray ice rained from the clouds like a deadly meteor shower, embedding themselves deep in the scorched snow and the armor of fallen soldiers.Instinctively, I stepped in front of Eira, shielding her from the falling debris with my own body and black cloak, while the rune on my right wrist pulsed wildly with burning pain.In the distance, beyond the thick curtain of black smoke, the imperial war horns sounded.Their deep, sickening notes echoed between the obsidian walls of the Black Glaciers.The ground began trembling beneath my boots, not from magic, but from the combined, relentless thunder of thousands of iron-shod hooves and marching boots.My father's main army was advancing.

    Zade Her wrist was thin, almost fragile in my grip, yet the tension radiating from her felt like a drawn bowstring. As I led her deeper into the belly of the palace, the corridors grew narrower and the walls glistened with dampness in the torchlight. Something was wrong. This was not the

    Eira After the door closed behind Zade I was left alone in the steaming silence. The water was hot, almost burning my skin, but I welcomed the pain. I scrubbed myself with the rough sponge until my skin turned red. I wanted to wash everything off. The dust of the streets. The memory of the th

    Eira My wrist throbbed from his grip. He dragged me across the dusty square as if I were livestock being hauled to slaughter, not a human being. I tried to plant my feet. I tried to shove away from him. But the prince was like an immovable wall of stone. With every jerk of his arm I felt the

    Zade The dragon smoke was suffocating, but I had learned long ago how to breathe in it. Leaning against the marble railing of the balcony, I watched the crowd swirling below and felt the urge to burn the whole place to the ground. The smell of cheap perfume and sweat drifted up to me, mixed wit
