“We will face whatever darkness is coming… together.” But she didn’t relax. Because she didn’t believe it. Because she could feel something I couldn’t. Hours later, long after she finally slipped into a restless sleep, I sat on the balcony staring out at the treetops when the wind shifted, violently, unnaturally.

Impossible to ignore. “One light cannot hold all darkness.” My heart stopped. “If she tries, she will shatter.”

She wrote me back and said it would be closer to 10 that she would get there, so I just needed to be patient for another 20 minutes.

“You love stars?” She is startled. She looks at me for a second before looking back up. “Ah, yes.” She says softly, then looks at me. “They remind me that even in the darkest places, light can survive.” “But what if the darkness is stronger?” She smiles, and for some reason, my heart skips a beat.

The scene stayed for a while, just Sunny crying, apologizing for the love she deserved in the first place, and Linus doing the same. The exiled wanted to end the stream of memories, the memories that stayed deep inside the soul of Joaqin who’s Sunny in the past, but he simply can’t put himself to stop. He still wanted to see her

Her voice deepens. “If we speak the same truth, then only time can answer. Yet what hearts fail to see is this—what time are we in?” She faces the shadows. “The light came after the darkness… but is this still the darkness, or is this the light? In all things…” Her voice crescendos, echoing against the walls of the shrine. “Time! Time!”

Darkness descended upon Amani, its comforting embrace ready to consume her. It was a darkness she had grown all too familiar with, a relentless force that sought to drag her into its depths, away from the torment of a world she had come to despise. But amidst the bleakness, a figure emerged once again, a woman whose presence emanated a strength and courage that Amani could only dream of possessing. As their eyes locked, a magnetic connection formed, drawing Amani into the depths of the woman's fiery gaze. It was as if she was being enveloped by the very essence of this enigmatic soul.

"Gavin,we need to rest we have enough this day we walk as if it is infinite" I softly inquired,his face perplexed by what I had said I know him.

The four followed—storm, fire, shadow, light. She turned back one last time, Red Moon blazing behind her. Her lips curved. Her voice cut through the night: “I was never meant to choose.” Silence. Power. Truth. She lifted her chin. “I was meant to claim all of them.” The world erupted. Howls. Cheers. Laughter. Life. Blackthorne bowed. The dead slept. The living rose.

In that fleeting moment, the darkness within her shone brightly, a stark reminder of the depths she was willing to sink to in her pursuit of vengeance and power. Freya’s footsteps echoed through the desolate woods as she followed her instincts, the flickering shadows casting an eerie glow on her determined face.
