If memory served, Levi’s family was also servants here. “Boy, hold up there,” Gabe called out, stopping Levi from going any further. Levi scratched his ear. “Yessir?” “I need to talk to you about those men who came looking for Lady Sarah yesterday.

Kael asked. ​"For... the... Seed," Vesta said. She looked directly at Kael. "They... saw... the 'New Wild.' They... saw... that... the... Earth... is... growing... again. They... don't... want... to... rule... you... Kael Davis. They... want... to... consume... your... vitality... to... jump-start... their... own... dying... biology." ​The First Thread ​Suddenly, the Librarian’s hum changed. It became a sharp, piercing whistle.

Everyone took a seat in my sitting room while we waited for Rosa to finish with dinner prep. Ambrosia took the stage, choosing to stand while she spoke. She explained to everyone the same thing she explained to me, and more. She spoke about her time in Pandora’s Box. She spoke about how the trans-dimensional travel sickness almost killed her when she arrived there, but how strange it was that when she came home she wasn’t sick at all. She spoke about the creatures that existed there, the monsters that she had risked her life night after night avoiding. She spoke of Hilda, and her home there. She spoke of Dominik and Andres, their powers and their weaknesses. She spoke of the landscape, the c

"Not everyone gets this kind of help. You should know how valuable they are." "What is the root called?" Melinda asked looking the charred wood over. "How can they be good for you?" "It is called Heaven's Venom. A type of poison. It can only be grown from the blood of a cultivator hit by powerful lighting. Very good at killing parasites that thrive off of eating synapses." Ren said politely. "The parasites grow and grow till they burst out. Making it difficult to move around beforehand. With the little critters eating away at one's synapses it makes it to difficult to do much of anything."

The letters press into the page like they’re carved instead of written. “The Lyovles are not born. They awaken.” My breath catches. I keep reading. Each word lands like a stone in my chest. “Their blood binds and breaks. Their presence unravels balance. Through them, the old world ends. Only to be saved, when their life is gone.”

He said handing them to me. I collected them and looked up to Adrien. He gave me a reassuring nod and I opened one of the scrolls. The cursive letters of the title caught my eyes first. The Goddess Vessel: Awakening of the Veiled Flame "When the moon weeps in silver tears, Where silence echoes through the years, And five fangs causes her pain, A child shall rise, with fire in her veins, Her soul alight, with shadowed blade, She shall walk paths where many fear,

"It didn't come from my father’s lab. It didn't come from a Thorne-Vane chemist." ​The "First Book" revealed the truth: The ink was a Biological Spore from the Aethel system. It had been sent out in "Survival Pods" millennia ago, drifting through the vacuum until it hit the Earth’s atmosphere.

On the cover was the word, “Bitten” Raven opened the book and felt a surge of power. The pages looked empty at first but a flash of light lit up behind every word as they appeared. This book had been enchanted. “This is from your father’s library. It contains the tale of the child born of the Bitten and the Born.”

So I strongly suggest that if you can't handle it, you skip this one out. Thank you and God bless. This chapter is long, that is because it is a completed version of all events ) (EVE'S POV)

About the threads pulling toward the ship's central section with the specific and patient ferocity of something that had crossed two systems and a dying planet and twenty-three days of deliberate invisibility and was still, still, entirely certain of where it was going. I looked at the stars for one more second. Then I fixed my expression. Picked up my folder. Walked toward the domestic staff section. And somewhere behind the bulkhead ahead of me, in the imperial command center of a flagship that was going to become, over the next weeks, considerably smaller than the galaxy it moved through — the Emperor of the Void Empire sat at his calculations with his violet eyes and his engineered perfe
