Looking at his brother’s expression Liam stepped out of the room closing the door behind him and asked, his eyebrows furred “What happened?”Louis said with a grave expression on his face “I don’t know, Master Kai is on the call, he said wants to speak to Elena now. It sounded serious.”Liam’s frown deepened as he took the phone from Louis “Master Kai?” he asked, his voice low but alert.Master Kai Von’s voice crackled faintly through the line, and the calmness in his voice was gone “Where are your phones Liam? I have been trying to contact Elena for so long now” Master Kai said, his voice grave “Please give the phone to Elena now… I need to speak to her immediately, only she can help us now…”Before Liam could respond, the bedroom door creaked wider behind him.Elena stepped into view, barefoot, her long dark hair tousled, eyes still heavy with sleep but alert. A deep burgundy robe clung to her frame, cinched loosely at the waist.Studying the tension there she asked “What is it?” he

Liam’s grip on his sword tightened, but Elena raised a hand, stepping forward.“Stop it,” she said coldly, her voice shaking not with fear, but fury “You don’t get to rewrite the past, Kal.”His expression flickered, amused “Rewrite it? Zenobia, I lived it. You and I — we were meant to be. We grew-up together, trained together, shared happiness and sadness together. You confided in me, trusted me… How could you not see what was between us?”“Because there was nothing between us,” she snapped “I have told you before, I am telling you again now, you were just my friend — a friend I once trusted wholeheartedly. That’s all you ever were to me until you betrayed me.”The wind howled around them as Kal’s smile vanished.“You’re lying,” he whispered, a crack forming in his voice “You felt something. You must have. I gave you everything — I burned kingdoms for you!”“No,” Elena said, voice hard as steel “You didn’t burn them for me. You burned them because you couldn’t stand that I loved some

Back in the Wastelands…The sky above raged in torment, swirling with storm and shadow as Kal descended slowly, arms raised, drinking in the chaos he had wrought across the Five Kingdoms. Screams echoed in the wind. The land cracked beneath his feet. And yet—there was defiance still.Elena and Liam stood side by side, battered, bloodied, but unbroken.Elena’s divine light flickered with strain, the wound on her arm poisoned, her breath uneven. Liam’s grip on his blade was tight despite the blood trailing from his side. But their eyes blazed with fury and purpose.Kal hovered just above them, darkness coiling around his body like a second skin. His smile was cold, victorious.“You should kneel, and give up Zenobia…” Kal growled, his voice reverberating like thunder “This is mercy. Accept it, and I’ll let you live as shadow in my world.”“I’d rather die fighting then do that” Liam spat.Elena stepped forward, her golden aura reigniting as she raised her sceptre “And I’d rather burn than

Elizabeth’s hand trembled as it reached out across the table, tears in her eyes “Then why… why didn’t you say anything?”Elena looked down a bit guilty “Because I was scared,” she admitted, voice low but unwavering “Not of the truth. I had accepted that. But I was scared of hurting all of you again if I might have died in that war, I did not want you to go through the loss of losing a daughter again. After we survived, I just did not know how to tell this.”Then she turned to Henry, her eyes soft “You found me when I had no one. You raised me, loved me as your own. I couldn’t bear the thought of you thinking you weren’t enough.
