She took a step toward Escuro, her purple eyes wide and searching his face in the gloom. “You are insane,” she breathed, though the words lacked their usual venom. “You are a madman. You would walk into a trap just to strike at them? They will unt you to the ends of the earth. They will burn everything you touch.” She reached out, her fingers twitching as if she wanted to grab his collar and sha

Where Ashes and Oaths Collide Chapter 111: Below the Surface
Slowly, Escuridade’s fingers uncurled from her trembling hands. Her shoulders dropped, and she leaned into him, her forehead resting against his arm. “I am not… I am not fine,” she muttered, her voice muffled and stripped of its usual edge. She sounded so small. Exhausted. She closed her eyes, letting the silence of the cleared space wash over her. The adrenaline was receding, leaving behind a bone-deep ache that made her limps feel like lead. For the first time in years, she was not looking over her shoulder. She was just being held. “Do not get used to it,” she muttered. “I will not,” Escuro whispered and gentle stroked her hair. “Look,” he said, looking at the Amaryllis. Escuridade’s gaze drifted toward the ground, and her breath caught. The Amaryllis we no longer just vibrant; they were pulsing. A deep, rhythmic crimson seeped from their petals, staining the dark soil around them like fresh w
Where Ashes and Oaths Collide Chapter 110: Vengeance
The word hit Escuridade like a physical strike. Vengeance. It was not just a concept anymore; it was a fuel. The memory of the fire, the small of burning wood and something more precious, the way the smoke had filled her lungs as she watched her life turn to ask– it all surged forward, coalescing into a single, sharp point of will. Her purple eyes snapped open, and they were no longer wide with fear. They were hard, focused, and burning with a cold, incandescent light. “You are right,” she spat, her voice steadying even as the black energy lashed at her skin. “I am done being small.” She pushed back against the dome, not with the desperation of a victim, but with the calculated force of someone striking a blow. Escuridade reached deeper into her own magic, pulling at the threads of her survival instinct and weaving them into something sharper, something meant to cut. The dome shivered. A hairline fracture, no wider than a needle&rsq
Where Ashes and Oaths Collide Chapter 109: Black Glossy Seal
Escuridade’s purple eyes were wild, darting past him into the trees, searching for the threat she assumed had just appeared. They were in a secluded forest clearing deep within the ancient woodland, where towering trees crowd together so tightly that very little sunlight reaches the forest floor. The tree’s thick trunks were dark with age, while twisting vines and creeping ivy climb the bark, weaving a dense canopy overhead. The limited light filters through the leaves in muted shafts, creating a dim, green-tinted atmospheres that feels isolated from the rest of the world. Every surface is overgrown with tangled vegetation, more and tangled roots. If there were ruins here, it would be impossible to see. The ground was uneven and littered with fallen leaves, broken twigs, and patches of damp earth. Thick shrubs and wild undergrowth surround the clearing, their branches intertwining to form a natural barrier that makes the location difficult to discove
Where Ashes and Oaths Collide Chapter 108: Amaryllis
“A coven,” Escuridade muttered, more to herself than to Escuro. She looked up at him, her purple eyes narrowing. “If your mother was right, and this fountain is an affront to nature, then a coven would not have been a sanctuary. They would have been a target.” She stood up abruptly, the movement causing her tattered robes to rustle loudly in the small room. The sudden shift in energy made the air around her feel heavy, the shadows in the corners of the room stretching toward her as if responding to her agitation. “You said you were not looking for a weapon, but look at us,” she gestured between them, her hands trembling slightly. “You were so angry at the witch hunters,” he said calmly, his voice growing deeper. “At those who burned down your home with your family in it. So passionate…”Escuro remembered the way the looked back then. The forest was thick, the canopy overhead knitting together into a veilin

“Destroy them?” Escuridade whispered, her voice trembling.

You would walk into a trap just to strike at them? They will unt you to the ends of the earth. They will burn everything you touch.” She reached out, her fingers twitching as if she wanted to grab his collar and shake him or perhaps push him away before he dragged her into his madness. “Why would you ask me?” she demanded, her voice rising in pitch. “I have no other choice. I have already spent two years looking for the ruins and now looking for a witch…” her purple eyes searched his, looking for the flicker of a lie, the subtle tell of a man who was actually a knight in disguise.“Two years,” Escuridade muttered, more to herself to him. The sheer
Where Ashes and Oaths Collide Chapter 106: Not a Witch Hunter
“More like desperate,” Escuro said shifting on his feet. “I am no witch hunter. I came hoping to make use of your skills.” The fireball in her hand flickered, the intensity of the light wavering for a split second as her confusion momentarily overrode her anger. Escuridade did not lower the flame, but she did not hurl it either. “Make us of my skills?” she repeated, her voice dropping an octave. The idea was absurd. People did not come to her for help; the concept of a non-hunter seeking her out was so foreign it felt like a trap. She descended one step, her boots making a dull thud on the rotting wood of the staircase. her purple eyes searched his face, looking for the telltale twitch of a lie or the glint of a hidden weapon. “You are talking about magic like it is a tool. Like a hammer or a plow,” she said, her eyes narrowing. “No, I am well aware that magic is more like an art for. A part of yourself,&rdqu

Luz froze mid-turn, his crimson eyes locking onto her form in the midnight blue fabric. The fabric clung to her curves in a way that sent a jolt of heat through him, awakening parts of himself he had though dead long ago. His breath caught in his throat. “I– of course,” he managed, his voice drop

“I don’t mind being consumed either,” Amelia said softly. “You don’t know what you are saying,” Luz whispered harshly, his hands trembling slightly as they frame Amelia’s face. “Being consumed means becoming a monster. Losing everything that makes you human.” The darkness on his chest pulsed viol

Luz’s grip on Amelia’s red hair tightened slightly, both painfully but demanding obedience. The black vein on his neck pulsed furiously as the Darkness within him sensed the victory– this human soul willingly surrendering herself. “You will sleep in my quarters and eat at my table. Every Corrompi

“That is not you fate,” Luz declared firmly, his voice carrying the authority of someone used to giving orders that were obeyed without question. “You are not some chattel to be bartered away to the highest bidder.” He closed the distance between them again in two long strides, his armoured form
