ログインCassian's body rose higher.Silver chains wrapped around his arms and legs, holding him in the air.Cassian!I rushed toward him.A powerful force threw me backward.I crashed onto the temple floor.Arielle!Kaelion caught me before I hit the wall.Cassian's eyes were completely black.The voice that came from his mouth was no longer his.You should have listened.I stared at him.Give him back.The Creator laughed.He is mine now.No.I stood.He is my brother.He belongs to no one.The Creator smiled through Cassian's face.You still don't understand.I have been inside this temple for thousands of years.I created the gods.I created the bloodlines.I created the Lock.And now I have the perfect vessel.Cassian's body began glowing.The silver light became darker.I felt panic rising in my chest.What are you doing to him?Preparing him.For what?The Creator looked at me.For rebirth.Mother stepped forward.Arielle, don't listen to him.The Creator laughed.You think the seal des
The temple shook violently.Dust rained from the ceiling as enormous cracks spread across the golden walls.Cassian stood before me, surrounded by silver light.The Creator's power was flowing through him.But he was still Cassian.My brother.My family.I grabbed his hand.Cassian, look at me.His silver eyes met mine.I'm still here.Good.Don't let him take you.He smiled faintly.He can't.Why?Because I finally understand the difference between power and control.The Creator's voice thundered through the temple.You foolish child.Cassian turned toward the darkness.You made one mistake.The voice went silent.You thought I was your vessel.Cassian raised his hand.But I'm your prison.The entire temple exploded with silver light.A scream echoed through the halls.No!The Creator's voice was no longer distant.It was coming from inside Cassian.His body trembled.Arielle!I grabbed him.Cassian!His knees buckled.Something was trying to force its way out of him.Get away from m
Cassian collapsed into my arms.His body was burning.Cassian!I held him tightly.His eyes opened for a second.Arielle...I'm here.Don't let him take me.My heart shattered.I won't.Cassian's eyes closed again.Mother rushed toward us.Put him down.Why?We need to examine the mark.I carefully lowered him onto the ground.A strange symbol had appeared across his chest.It looked like a crown surrounded by six sharp points.Father stared at it.The Creator's mark.I looked at him.Can it be removed?Father didn't answer.Can it?Mother stepped closer.Not easily.Abyss walked toward Cassian.The Creator has marked him.Then we remove it.Abyss shook his head.If you remove it incorrectly, you will destroy his soul.I stared at Cassian.Then we find the correct way.Kaelion looked toward the horizon.We need answers.Lucian nodded.And somewhere there must be someone who knows how to remove the mark.The old woman stepped forward.There is.Everyone turned toward her.Where?The Tem
The eye in the sky opened wider.The entire world seemed to hold its breath.No one moved.No one spoke.Even Abyss had lowered his head.I looked at him.You know that thing?Abyss nodded.He created me.My heart sank.And the gods?He looked toward the enormous eye.He created them too.Then who is he?Abyss slowly raised his head.The first being.The one who existed before time.The one who created the first magic.The one who created the bloodlines.The one who created the Crown.The Creator.A deep voice shook the heavens.You finally remember.I looked up.Why are you here?The eye narrowed.Because you broke my world.I frowned.Your world?The Creator's voice echoed across the mountains.Everything you see belongs to me.The kingdoms.The magic.The bloodlines.The gods.Abyss.All of it.I raised my sword.Then you shouldn't have created us.Silence.Mother looked at me in shock.The Creator laughed.You have your ancestor's courage.I am not my ancestor.No.You are somethi
Abyss stared at Cassian.For the first time since the monster emerged from the earth, it looked afraid.Cassian slowly raised his hand.The mark on his palm burned brighter.Abyss stepped backward.The ground cracked beneath its feet.The Blood Moon Army stared in disbelief.Father lowered his sword.What is happening?Mother looked at Cassian.The Lock is awakening.Cassian's eyes turned silver.I don't know how to control this.Arielle!I stepped toward him.Look at me.His eyes found mine.The moment our gazes met, the light around him calmed.I don't understand.You don't have to.I held his hand.Just remember who you are.His breathing slowed.The silver light spread from his hand into mine.The symbol on my chest responded.Crimson and silver light intertwined.Abyss screamed.NO!The monster charged.Thousands of eyes opened across its body.Darkness erupted toward us.Father shouted:Shield!The Blood Moon Army raised their weapons.Mother unleashed her magic.Kaelion and Luc
Boom.The heartbeat shook the temple.I couldn't move.The enormous eye beneath us remained open, staring directly at me.Another heartbeat followed.Boom.The walls cracked.Dust fell from the ceiling.Cassian grabbed my hand.Arielle, we need to leave.I shook my head.No.Everyone stared at me.I need to know what that thing is.Mother stepped forward.Arielle, whatever is beneath this temple has been sealed for thousands of years.Then why is it waking now?Nobody answered.The old woman slowly approached the crack.Because you returned.I looked at her.What does that mean?She pointed at the symbol on my chest.The First Queen was never the guardian of the Four Bloodlines.She was the guardian of that creature.I looked down.The symbol was glowing brighter.Why me?Because the seal recognizes you.The ground shook again.Boom.The eye moved.Something enormous shifted beneath the temple.Father raised his sword.Everyone prepare yourselves.A voice came from beneath us.It was
