She was catching her breath. She also saw that the sky kingdom. Will soon collapsed. “Your highness! Your highness”, shouted Adam.

Chapter Thirteen: Sister of Ash The sky had turned a deep, smoky gray, as though the heavens themselves mourned what was awakening beneath the soil. Seren stood at the edge of the crater, surrounded by the wreckage of her birthright and the screams of the cursed tree that once marked Black Hollow’s sacred heart.

The metal door creaked open and Asher crawled in covered in sweat as his body trembled.

Ashley walked to the middle of the pinnacle and the moon goddess descent approached her, walking around her with an emotionless face as she tossed the burning fire around her head before wearing the thorn crown on her neck.
