The world calls to us, and our animals answer. “When will I get to experience it?” I couldn’t wait until I could shift. Nix chuffed her agreement but stayed silent. We shift when our bodies can handle it. The bigger or stronger the animal, the later we shift. Your father wasn’t ready when he came of age. We shifted after he mastered his magic and his body.

Plus, when everyone around us was shifting, we were pretty much on lock down to make sure we wouldn’t. Since it’s not a birthday thing, Father thought we might shift past the inhibitor.”

"Maybe," she breathes deeply, "I should give her what she wants." I can't take much more. My beast is fully invested, but we're standing in an alleyway where anyone could walk past. "Fight it, Marinah, we're not ready to give away your secrets." She closes her eyes and takes deep, even breaths. Holding back the change in the beginning is one of the hardest things to do.

As the iron hit the invisible line of the barrier, it didn't bounce; it vanished. "It’s a 'Phase-Shift.' Anything that crosses without a Council key is shunted into a sub-layer of reality. You don't die, Rhea. You just cease to exist in this world."

“But it wasn’t what I thought it was. I was just imagining it, and I almost killed my brother because of my inability to determine what’s real and not. What’s wrong with me?” Nothing. “You know what my mom said right before she…” I couldn’t finish that thought. I abandoned that idea. “She said I wasn’t a Foreseer. And that we weren’t actually imprinted, and it was all a trick.” That time, Nathan growled, but I ignored it. “And I don’t know if she’s right or not. My reality seems to be all mixed up right now, and there is no way for me to know what's real and what isn’t. What am I supposed to do?”

Then, just before it struck, something extraordinary happened. Reality... shifted. Not just around me, but through me. In that moment, I could see everything – every possible outcome, every thread of fate weaving together to form the cosmic tapestry. And I understood what I had to do. "Everyone, to me!" I commanded, my voice carrying power that surprised even myself. As our allies gathered, I began to weave a shield of pure reality – not just magic, but the very stuff of existence itself. The Void struck my barrier and recoiled, its entropy meeting something it couldn't simply unmake. But maintaining the shield was costing me.

Like any sudden motion might fracture whatever thin layer of reality they were standing on. “Don’t speak,” he said. But the words didn’t reach her ears. They appeared instead. Directly in her mind. Seren stumbled back. No. No, that wasn’t possible. Kairos took another step, and with it, the room *shifted*. The wooden walls of the lodge blurred—not dissolving, but rewriting themselves. The grain of the wood rearranged like letters being retyped. The doorway behind him stretched taller, narrower, then unstable, like it couldn’t decide what dimension it belonged to.

Tamara’s eyes widen in great astonishment while looking at Shahara who stood up and looked at the shelves while talking to her. She already know how to shift at the age of five?! It was incredible! – She remarkably thought. “Shifting can be triggered by various things like anger, too much pain, uneasiness, even too much joy, or loneliness.
