Ozric’s voice filtered through my ears. “A mirror?” he asked, stopping beside me. I didn’t care to look at him. “Yes, a mirror,” was my blunt reply. From the corner of my eye, I saw his hand run along the information plate, stopping where my name was written. “You gave this too?” Our eyes locked in the reflection. I zoned out again. His reflection in the accursed thing caused me to remember the chimera. But why the chimera? That I couldn’t answer. “It’s for the best. The mirror was beginning to...grow on me.” Understatement of the year.

Like a silhouette cut from night, filled with slow moving light. It regarded us. “You are bonded,” it continued. “But not aligned.” Seren inhaled sharply. “That is a lie.” “No,” it said calmly. “It is a fracture.” The mirrors around us began to reform, rising from the ground like teeth. Each one caught a different angle of us. In one, I stood crowned in blood. In another, Seren knelt alone, silver chains wrapped around her wrists. In another, I saw myself turning away from her.

Without thinking, Noah grabbed the heavy candlestick from the fireplace. He threw him against the mirror with all his strength. A swelling bang. Glass exploded. Liam screamed. Nora started crying. The mirror burst into a thousand pieces. And he cried with Eren. Not before pain. From anger. The light in the house flickered. All the shards on the ground trembled. But in the biggest piece I saw him. Just his eye. Amber colors. He stared at Noah. And whispered: “You chose me again.” Then the mirror image was lost.

In the center stands the mirror. It’s not what Bianca expected. No grand pedestal. No silver frame. Just a tall, narrow slab of obsidian resting between two stone holders. Its surface ripples faintly, like oil over water. The air around it pulses. Bianca takes a slow step back. “You sure you want to do this?” she whispers. “No,” Lumina says again. “But I have to.” She walks forward. Each step feels heavier than the last. The mirror hums softly, as though recognizing her presence. Lumina closes her eyes, steadying herself.

"If you pass the test, I will give you the mirror of mirrors myself. If you fail, you die. Do you understand?" "I understand" "Good" she said, a slow smirk creeping onto her lips.I swallowed hard.Was I ready? I honestly don't know."Close your eyes" Yaran said. I narrowed my eyes. What was she up to? "Do you want the mirror of mirrors or not? You have to cooperate with me" I exhaled slowly and closed my eyes. ********

Its glow touches your skin, its hum stirs your chest, and for a moment, you remember that all of this — the gods, the worlds, the silences, the songs — were never just stories. They were mirrors. They were you. --- The Mirror of the Reader Every story is a mirror. Some reflect what we already know, others reveal what we’re still afraid to see. When you walked with Seren through her rejection, you carried your own quiet wounds with her. When you watched her fight, you saw pieces of your own strength reflected in her fire. And when she forgave, perhaps you forgave something in yourself too. That is the secret of the Blood Moon.

Serane said, “but you won’t like the lesson.” She reached out, fingertips brushing Kaelira’s temple. The world cracked. ⸻ Kaelira’s knees hit stone. Light flooded her vision—fire and moonlight entwined. She was no longer in the citadel but in a vast plain under a bleeding sky. Towers of silver rose and fell like breathing things. At the center stood a mirror of flame, its surface rippling with faces—wolves, witches, men—all shifting into one another. Serane’s voice came from everywhere at once. This is what you are bound to. The flame that remembers all life and devours none. The heart wants to wake, Kaelira, because it misses its own reflection.

As they reached the final chamber, Ayla stopped. At its center stood a single mirror—taller than a man, its frame carved from moonstone. The surface rippled faintly, as if it were breathing. Her heart pounded. “This is it.” Kian stepped closer, his hand on his sword. “Careful. The Mirror doesn’t just show. It binds.” Ayla ignored him. She lifted her hand and touched the glass. The surface rippled beneath her fingertips, cool and alive. For a heartbeat, she saw only her reflection. Then, slowly, another image formed—her face, but different. Darker eyes. A crescent mark glowing on her brow.

From her fingertips, shadows slithered outward. “Step into the mirror, beautiful one, and we will destroy all your troubles forever,” she whispered. “Who…who are you?” My voice cracked. Her grin widened. “The you your mother’s blood has suppressed all these years with the spirit of light. With the spirit of Eliora’s werewolves. I am your other self. The one born of pain. Betrayal. Envy.” My blood turned cold. Recognition stirred. I had heard stories of this relic: The Mirror of Seven Faces. I never knew why it bore that name, until now.
