The darkness did not disappear.It swallowed everything.Lena's hand was still wrapped around mine, but I could no longer see her. I could barely feel her. Even the sound of her breathing seemed to have been pulled away from me.Then the voice returned.You were never born.I closed my eyes.“Then what am I?”You were awakened.The words settled into me with a strange familiarity.Not because I believed them.Because somewhere deep inside, I had heard them before.A memory surfaced.A room.White walls.Silver light.A glass chamber standing in the center.And someone screaming my name.I opened my eyes.The corridor was gone.Lena was gone.I was standing inside the room from my memory.My room.Except it wasn't a memory anymore.It was happening around me.A glass chamber stood several feet away.Something was inside it.A baby.I stopped breathing.The baby opened her eyes.They were mine.“No.”The voice behind me whispered,“Yes.”I turned.The faceless being stood there.“What i

The sanctuary lights went out.For one terrifying second, there was nothing.No light.No movement.Only the sound of thousands of voices whispering my name from beyond the walls.Amara.Again.And again.And again.My body went cold.Elyon reached for my hand.“Don't listen to them.”“They're outside,” Lena whispered.Marcus stood near the entrance, his face unusually tense.“No,” he said.“They aren't outside.”Everyone turned toward him.Marcus looked at me.“They're everywhere.”A faint red glow appeared beneath my skin.The marksBlack.Silver.Gold.White.Red.All five began pulsing at once.Then another light appeared.Blue.My breath caught.There had never been a blue mark.“What is that?”Marcus stared at my hand.“I don't know.”My grandfather laughed bitterly.“You don't know?”Marcus looked at him.“You've been studying this longer than anyone.”“I studied the wrong thing.”The blue light spread across my palm.The sanctuary walls began filling with images.People.Hundr

The world beneath us opened.Not cracked.Not collapsed.Opened.As if the ground had never been solid at all.A vast darkness stretched beneath the sanctuary, swallowing the stone floor and everything beyond it. The first world disappeared behind a wall of red light, and for several seconds, none of us could hear anything except the sound of our own breathing.Then the voice came again.Yes.My body went still.Mother.The word had escaped my lips before I could stop it.I didn't know why I'd said it.I didn't know who I was talking about.Yet some ancient part of me knew.The First Witness was crying.My father looked terrified.Evelyn had one hand over her mouth.Even Marcus had stepped backward.Only my grandfather remained completely still.I turned toward him.“You know her.”He didn't answer.“You know who that is.”His jaw tightened.“Amara, don't listen to the voice.”“Why?”“Because it knows exactly what you want to hear.”I stared at him.“You're afraid.”“No.”“You are.”H

I couldn't move.The darkness beyond the doorway seemed to breathe.Slowly.Quietly.Almost like something enormous was sleeping on the other side.Then Ethan's voice came again.“Amara?”My heart twisted.Evelyn tightened her grip around my arm.“Don't answer.”“But that's Ethan.”“No.”“How do you know?”“Because Ethan would never call you like that.”I looked at her.“What do you mean?”Her eyes remained fixed on the darkness.“He always calls you Ama.”The voice came again.“Amara…”My stomach dropped.She was right.Ethan had never called me Amara when it was just us.Never.A cold realization settled over me.Whatever was behind that door didn't know everything.It only knew what it had learned from our memories.The voice changed.“Lena?”A pause.Then Lena's voice answered from somewhere in the darkness.“Amara, please.”Ethan's voice followed.“Help us.”Then my father's.“Don't listen to them.”Then Evelyn's.“Come to me.”Then my own.“Trust me.”The voices overlapped until

The two strangers stood beyond the sanctuary doors.They didn't move.They didn't need to.Something about their presence made the entire room feel smaller.The woman looked at me as if she had been waiting for this exact moment since before I had a name.The man beside her wore the same expression.Recognition.Not surprise.Not fear.Recognition.I stepped forward.“Who are you?”The woman smiled.“You already asked that.”“I've never seen you before.”“You have.”“Not in this life.”Her smile disappeared.“Not in any life you remember.”The words sent a chill through me.Behind me, Ethan whispered my name.“Ama…”I didn't look back.My eyes stayed on the strangers.“What did you mean when you said you gave me a body?”The woman stepped into the sanctuary.Every mark on the floor reacted to her.The seven symbols glowed brighter.My silver mark burned against my chest.She stopped.“You were never born the way you think you were.”I frowned.“I was born.”“Yes.”“My mother gave birt
