Chapter 51

The Queen ReturnsThe council chamber had never been this quiet.Lynnek stood at the head of the long table, staring at the map spread before her.Red markings covered the eastern border.Black markings represented Noctis's forces.Too many villages had already been attacked.Too many warriors had fallen.But today, Lynnek wasn't hiding from the map.She was studying it.Miguel stood beside her, watching silently.He had noticed the change in her.The grief was still there.It hadn't disappeared.But she had stopped allowing it to keep her away from the people who needed her."We've been defending every territory they attack," Lynnek finally said.Kael nodded."That's what we've always done.""Then that's our mistake."Everyone looked at her.Lynnek pointed to the map."Noctis chooses where we fight."

The Enemy's Trap The journey to the Blood Moon Temple took two days. By the third morning, the mountains stood before the army like enormous walls of stone. The air had grown colder. Even the wolves seemed unusually quiet. Lynnek rode beside Miguel at the front of the army, her eyes fixed on the narrow passage between the mountains. "Something feels wrong," she said. Miguel nodded. "I feel it too." Aster, riding behind them, suddenly raised his hand. "Stop." The entire army halted. Nyros lifted his head and sniffed the air. "There is no scent." Kael frowned. "No scent of what?" "Anything." Nyros looked toward the mountains. "No birds." "No animals." "No wind." "The mountain is silent." Lynnek's fingers tightened around the reins. "Then we're being watched." Aster's expression hardened. "Yes." --- Without warning, an arrow flew from the cliffs. Miguel deflected it with his sword. "Shield formation!"

The Queen's ChoiceThe mountain shook beneath their feet.Silver cracks continued spreading through the blood circle, breaking the crimson symbols one after another.Noctis stared at Lynnek.For the first time since his return, there was no amusement in his expression."You cannot break that spell."Lynnek raised her sword."Then why are you worried?"The silver light around her grew brighter.Miguel watched her carefully."Lynnek, don't push yourself.""I'm not."She looked at him."I'm using what the Moon gave me."Aster suddenly shouted from behind them."Everyone, move toward the eastern ridge!"Cassian immediately understood."The barrier is weakening!""Not just weakening," Aster replied.

The Final SealThe altar exploded with light.Lynnek threw an arm across her face as a powerful wave of energy swept through the chamber.Miguel grabbed her hand."Lynnek!""I'm here!"Aster struggled to remain standing.The crimson sphere above the altar had transformed.It was no longer red.It was silver.The entire chamber trembled as ancient symbols appeared across the walls.Noctis stood motionless beneath the sphere.For the first time, he looked almost satisfied.Lynnek stared at him."What have you done?"Noctis smiled."Nothing.""I merely showed you the truth."Aster looked around the chamber."The altar isn't giving him power."He suddenly understood."It's testing the Queen."Miguel frowned."Testing her for what?"Aster pointed toward the glowing sphere."For the final seal."---The chamber changed.The stone floor disappeared beneath them.Lynnek suddenly found herself standing in a vast field beneath a clear night sky.There was no Miguel.No Aster.No temple.Only si
