The last one… was Elara. Mira stepped forward, and the reflection moved with her. “You’re not me,” she said. The Elara-mirror smirked. “No. I’m what’s left of who you tried to bury.” Mira clenched her fists. “I buried her for a reason.” “She’s not gone,” the reflection said. “You absorbed her. You wear her bones.” Suddenly, the mirror cracked—from the inside. Black static spilled out. And Mira woke up screaming. Carl was at her side in seconds. “What is it?”

My vision flickered and spots of black clouded my sight, but I did not know why. It could not be grief, could it? That would be too humiliating. 'Lana Branch, you really misjudged him, didn't you?'

And she looked at the others a little hesitantly. “We’ve been watching the warehouse. We took photos.” Leah said. And Aria took out her phone and showed me a woman that was in the warehouse. I had to zoom in on the photo before I looked up at them confused. “What the fuck?” I asked. “I’ve seen photos of your mother Meadow. And she doesn’t look like she’s aged a day since she ‘died’.” Aria said. I dropped the phone and I started to hyperventilate when Lucas was suddenly standing beside me and he helped me sit down, trying to calm me down.

"Don't move, I'll go see." For some reason, Candice suddenly remembered the feeling of someone watching her from behind in the afternoon. She subconsciously wanted to ask Alex not to go, but before Alex reached the door, the entire laboratory suddenly went dark. Candice's night blindness struck instantly, and her vision became black. The tension in her heart spread instantly, and she stood still, afraid to move. Then, the next second, a beam of light lit up not far away. Alex held up his phone and walked towards her. "It’s probably a power outage."

Ana (voice thick): “Eight treasures down, thirty-nine still sleeping. Tonight we wake the ninth.” She leads us past the church, up a frozen path to an ancient hay barn that smells of cedar and centuries. Inside stands the Winterglass Mirror: tall, black ice veined with silver, humming like a hive. It doesn’t show our reflections. It shows futures we’re terrified of. - Me on a throne of frozen blood, crown complete, eyes empty. - Remy kneeling, broken, dagger at his own throat. - Seras burning everything she loves because she couldn’t stop it.

My synapses fired with a violence that made my vision white, the hollow spaces in my soul being filled with the messy, beautiful chaos of a life I had almost forgotten. The black node shrieked: a high-pitched and metallic shriek that echoed through the hall as the light began to burn away the rot. The black smoke that made up the node’s core was violently sucked inward, imploding until the obsidian monolith shattered into a thousand pieces of harmless dust.

The hot water provided a physical release, relaxing his tense muscles, but his mind remained a cauldron of seething anger. Steam enveloped the bathroom, a visual representation of the heated emotions coursing through Asher. In a fit of rage, he directed his anger towards a decorative mirror on the wall, pounding it again and again. The bathroom echoed with the sounds of shattered glass, a stark contrast to the calm facade Asher usually presented.

the old lady said while eyes were closed. All were astounded when the next moment, the real event was shown. First in the sequence of events shown was Lady Lilian giving Monroe Levitsky two small black bottles with black lid, exactly the same as the one found in my bedroom. Next shown was Matt Monroe sneeking to my room and putting the bottle on my belongings. The townspeople and the king especially, looked very shocked of what they have seen. They all knew that the legendary mirror of the past never lies. It only shows the truth and nothing but the truth.

In its center, resting on a cradle of obsidian root, was an object none of them expected to see. A mirror. But not reflective. It was matte. Shadowed. It absorbed light instead of returning it. Jessica approached it, breath hitching. “It’s the Uncoded Mirror.” Torin crossed his arms. “The one Helix tried to replicate.
