The Rejected Curvy Luna Queen
Inside, a maelstrom of dying gods writhes: skeletal serpents, eyeless colossi, things that hum in forgotten tongues.
Soren grips my wrist. "Now. *Sever it.*"
The storm thrashes, eager. But the Well's voice is a lament. *"We were kings. We were *light*. Free us, and we'll shred the Veil for you."*
Eden's hand finds my shoulder. "Don't."
But the Daughters arrive, starfire boiling the sea.

**The Cut**
Sacrifice is a language I know.
I let the storm loose.
It tears into the Well, devouring the dying gods, their screams merging with its thunder. The Daughters falter, their starfire dimming as the tether snaps. Soren howls a dirge, her Tidecaller magic gutting the Choir's reinforcements.
