Bloodscript: Survival Game of the Reborn
The lowered gondola’s threshold flared with ghost‑light, stretching out across the boardwalk like invisible feelers.
A HUD‑style overlay blinked into my vision for a split second:
\[PAIRING: INITIATED.\]
Small motes of light zipped from the wheel’s hub, streaking toward us.
One struck Corvin in the chest, then veered to hit me square between the eyes.
Text flashed for me alone:
\[LINK: CORVIN THORNE + WILLA ROANE.\]
\[COMPATIBILITY: HIGH.\]
Heat pricked the back of my neck.
Before I could process that, two more motes split off—one pinging against Jax’s sternum, the other tagging the older woman, Tamsin.
