It holds immense power, but using it comes at a cost.” Hazel approached the crystal, feeling its energy thrumming in the air. “What kind of cost?” Damon’s expression darkened. “The stone requires a sacrifice to awaken its full potential.

Below him, Jax and a team of Gutter-engineers were frantically clearing the last of the debris, their headlamps cutting through the thick, grey mist of the blockade. "The Aether-shunt is hot!" Jax shouted, pointing to a massive copper cable that snaked down from the Spire’s foundation. "But the grid is spiking, Vane! If we plug this in, the Spire’s lower levels are going to brown out!"

His eyes fluttered constantly, as if he was forcing those words out. My eyes were filled with tears as my heart became so heavy, my teeth were clenched together to force back the loud sob about to escape my lips. His eyes fell on mine, and he looked away sharply.

She mentioned you might be difficult to convince; she said to give you what is in the passenger seat back pocket, if you haven't broken it already." "Thank you, Nyxen, for your care," Declan said, letting the sarcasm lace his tone as he reached into the front passenger seat's back pocket, swearing when Nyxen screeched the car to a halt and causing Declan to hit his head before continuing to drive. He found a small, perfectly intact thank you very much Nyxen, bottle there and inspected the label. Just a mix of essential oils: chamomile, lavender, lemon. Lemon? Why? Didn't really matter. Harmle

"Now, tell me everything you know." Brittany took a deep breath, her hand rubbing her sore throat. "You'll need a rare herb called 'Amoris Sol'," she said.
