"No." The vision shattered into fragments of silver light. I staggered backward as my heart pounded so hard it hurt. I saw Kael. His face was pale, his armor broken, and The Shadow King raised his blade over him. I couldn't end like that. Not after everything we had survived and not after every promise we'd made."I'm coming," I said quietly. Without thinking twice, I raced across the temple doors. The Moon Trident pulsed in my hand, illuminating the corridor ahead. The underground passage that had seemed endless before now felt shorter, almost as though the Sea Temple itself was urging me onward. The Moon Key laid gently against my chest. Its warmth had become different. The frantic pulsing was gone and it began beating in rhythm with my heart. As though the Second Seal had become part of me. I ascended the stone bridge that stretched across the glowing underground sea. The Tide Keeper was waiti

"Very good, Moon Queen. At last you understand." The Shadow King's voice echoed across the ruined Silver Garden as darkness gathered around his feet."But by the time you get to the Third Seal... It will be already belong to me.""No!" I yelled. I lunged forward, the Moon Trident blazing with silver-blue light. The Shadow King only grinned. With a wave of his hand, a wall of shadows separated us. I drove the trident into the darkness. The silver light pierced through it, but when the shadows dissolved, he was gone. Only the Shadow Knights remained. The battlefield was silent for a heartbeat. Then the creatures charged."Protect the Queen!" Rowan bellowed. Moonfall's warriors met the Shadow Knights head-on. Steel clashed against shadow and the sound echoed through the broken sanctuary. I spun my trident, meeting the first Shadow Knight before it reached Rowan. The blade of moonlig

"The ritual... It's already begun." Cassian's horrified voice echoed through the deserted streets as the pillar of black light pierced the heavens. The Moon Key burned against my chest. I clutched it as I fell to one knee. It felt as if fire had seeped within my skin."Aria!" Kael shouted as he rushed toward my side."I'm fine," I lied through gritted teeth. The pain subsided just enough for me to be able to stand. I looked toward the Sky Temple. The black pillar was not only rising into the sky, it was also spreading. Dark clouds gathered above the city, swallowing the morning sun. The floating crystals around the kingdom dimmed one after the other. The light that had made the city seem so alive slowly vanished. Commander Lyssara never looked away from the man in front of us."Alaric," she said with a trembling voice. "I buried you." The man smiled without warmth."You buried an empty coffin.""You... You let u

"I have been waiting for you for a thousand years." The woman before me stood as though time itself had forgotten her. Though they were not ordinary chains, silver ones wrapped around her ankles, wrists, and waist. Little runes shimmered across each link, pulsing with a rhythm that matched the stars floating above the unending abyss. I swallowed."A Thousand years... How come you're still alive?" She gave a faint smile. "I am not alive in the way you understand. My body perished centuries ago. What remains is my soul, bound to the Third Seal." I gazed at her in wonder."So you've been here... alone?" She turned toward the sea of stars all around us."I have never truly been alone. The memories of every guardian who has protected the Sky Seal remain here." I followed her gaze. The stars gleamed once more. This time, I saw faint figures walking among them. I saw warriors, priests, and Queens. A few smiled quie

I fell. There was no ground beneath me. No sky or stars, just darkness. My stomach twisted as the force of the fall pulled me deeper into the unknown. I reached for the Moon Trident but felt nothing. It had vanished. The Moon Crown still rested on my head, but its light had disappeared. For the first time since coming to the Sky Temple, I was absolutely powerless."Help!" My voice vanished into the darkness. Nothing came back, not even an echo. I tried once more, but there was still nothing. Then something touched my shoulder. I spun around but saw nothing. A cold sensation crawled down my back."Who's there?" A whisper responded."You." I froze. A figure appeared before me. It was me. But not the future version I had seen before. This version looked exhausted. Her clothes were torn and her face was streaked with dirt. One side of her forehead was covered in blood.
