Sariah turned from the image and began preparing to leave her realm. Not through rift or rupture—but through will. Through the places she once walked as flesh and blood.

If the Council wanted to reach into the past, then she would be there to meet it.

And this time, they would not be the ones holding the blade.

The thought echoed within her as she stepped through the veil, not like a ghost, but as something older—something still tethered to a human memory of shape, though no longer bound by it. Sariah no longer needed doorways to pass between realms. Her path was woven through time, her feet anchored in thought and memory. She descended not into a place, but into a consequence.

The corridor she entered was narrow, buried beneath the foundations of the Council’s northern stronghold. The world above it had changed a dozen times over, but the chamber below had remained untouched—preserved like a sacred secret, or a wound no one dared reopen. Here, history wasn’t taught. It was locked in

  • The Blood Bound Legacy   Chapter 209: The Weight of What She Left Behind

    Dain hadn’t moved in several minutes.The silk bundle sat no more than a foot from his hand, as though it had always been there. He hadn't seen it arrive. Hadn't heard it placed. It was simply… present, quiet, and ominous in its stillness. The silk shimmered faintly in the candlelight—deep violet threaded with silver, the kind of fabric he hadn’t seen since he was a child listening to stories of relic-bearers and rituals long abandoned.He stared at it like it might lunge.A part of him didn’t want to touch it. Not out of fear—he’d fought monsters made of worse—but because some deeply buried instinct in him knew: once he opened it, he would never again return to the version of himself that sat there, uncertain and unbound. This was a gate. Just not the kind you walked through.It opened you.And it was from her.That realization hit the hardest.He reached out finally, fingers brushing the silk. The cloth was soft but firm, wrapped with intentional precision—tucked corners, no fraying

  • The Blood Bound Legacy   Chapter 208: The Memory of Fire

    The light came first, not as a flash, but as a slow pulse, like a heartbeat returning after a long absence.He felt it beneath his ribs before he opened his eyes. A subtle thrum, deep and ancient, moving through muscle and marrow. It didn’t hurt. Not yet. It just was. A truth he hadn’t needed to face for what felt like lifetimes.He couldn’t remember when they’d put him under.Only the voices.The urgency in Marell’s tone, the cold disappointment in Sariah’s eyes, the sound of the Vein screaming beneath the floor as if it knew what was about to be lost.“Contain him,” someone had said. “Before he chooses her over us.”And he had.Chosen her, that is.He remembered now—bit by bit—as the crystal shell surrounding his body fractured. The containment field gave one last pulse of resistance, then yielded, its purpose fulfilled. He sucked in a sharp breath, and with it came the crushing weight of now.He sat up slowly, muscles aching from unnatural stillness. The air was stale, untouched by

  • The Blood Bound Legacy   Chapter 206: The Name She Buried

    Sariah stood still in the center of her chamber, though calling it a “chamber” no longer felt accurate. The place was not made of walls anymore. It breathed now, shifting, folding in upon itself, reflecting every ripple in the current of the Vein like wind stirring a still lake.She felt it before she heard it. Not a sound. Not a word. Just a decision. The Council had moved. Not against her. Not directly.But toward someone they had locked away in thought and memory, someone she hadn’t dared let herself think about in years. They had whispered a name behind closed walls, and the Vein had carried that whisper straight to her core. Not because it wanted her to stop them. Not because it favored her. But because it knew the weight that name still held within her.Her fingers curled into fists as her breath stilled. “You wouldn’t,” she murmured, though even as she said it, she knew that of course they would.Of course, Marell would.He had always known where her heart broke. And he had nev

  • The Blood Bound Legacy    Chapter 205: The Breach No Longer Ignored

    The chamber was colder than usual.Not physically, the stone walls were kept at a neutral temperature by ancient sigils carved in the mortar centuries ago. But the atmosphere had changed. The kind of chill that settles when something larger than the room itself has arrived, unseen but undeniable.High Councilor Marell stood at the head of the table, palms resting flat against the blackwood surface. His fingers twitched once, barely noticeable, as he stared at the floating sigil rotating slowly above the center of the table. A vein-line pulse flickered through it, erratic and sharp.“That’s the third breach this week,” muttered Councilor Elda, the youngest voice in the room but perhaps the one with the most urgency. Her dark eyes followed the flicker, then shot toward Marell. “We can’t pretend this is just bleed-off anymore.”“It’s not,” said Councilor Vyre. His voice was rough, aged from more than time, and he didn’t look up from the spread of parchment in front of him. “It’s targeted

  • The Blood Bound Legacy   Chapter 204: The Echo That Wasn't His

    The first thing he felt was heat—not from the hearth, which had burned low hours ago, but from beneath the floor itself. A soft warmth, pulsing like breath, spread through the soles of his boots and into his legs. Dain remained crouched near the corner where the knocking had stopped, unsure if he had drifted off or if the world had simply shifted around him while he blinked.The moment he exhaled, the room dissolved.Not violently. Not with fire or noise. It simply... changed.The wooden walls gave way to stone, smooth, gray, and damp, lit by a flickering torchlight that danced on surfaces he had never seen before. The musty air of the tavern room was replaced by something ancient and cold, laced with the smell of smoke and moss and something faintly sweet, like pressed herbs left too long in the dark.He didn’t panic.Somewhere deep inside, a part of him accepted the change as if he’d walked through this memory before. Maybe he had. Maybe it had always been waiting for him.The corri
