was the last words we heard as the flames and an enormous flash of light vaporized him to nothing. When it was over, we stood there staring as we slowly lowered our scepters. “The Light will Conquer Darkness,” Rayna whispered. “We still have one more thing to do,” I said softly looking at my Queen. I took her hand and teleported us to the roof of a tall turret of the palace and looked around. The Darkness had enveloped the world so much it was time to bring life back to the world. I looked at my wife, and with my arm around her waist I asked her, “Ready?”

For the tiny soul trusting me to bring it into this world. My steps grow heavier. My vision blurs. The noise of celebration fades until there is only ringing in my ears. Then my strength gives out. The world tilts. And everything goes dark.

********* I had finally stepped into the darkness, this darkness could either engulf me within it or I would transcend beyond holding a lamp of light. ********* -Selene The world I had stepped into was also dark and haunting similar to this room. Stepping inside with little steps, I searched for the switch to the lamp. Even if I can't bring back light to my life atleast I could switch on the lights of this room. Treading and stumbling upon things, hitting my knee numerous times I finally got the way to light. It was a boring colourless room, painted in all dark colours with no paintings or colours. Just blank walls, a bed, a cupboard and a table.

I pressed my hand against the light— And the world shattered. I didn’t scream. I didn’t breathe. I just fell. Fell through the code, through the memories, through the voices calling my name. And then everything went dark.

"Take my hand and free yourself from this torture the darkness has imposed on you. Only you have the power to bring it to light." Charles stood immobile for a moment, contemplating my words. Slowly, he reached out and grasped my hand, his grip firm and determined. "Life has been so dark for so long," he began, his voice filled with a mix of fear and determination. "But maybe, just maybe, with your help, I can find my way back to the light." I nodded my head as a light emerged from my body, casting a warm glow towards Charles. The darkness seemed to retreat, inch by inch, as the light enveloped him. Charles closed his eyes and took a deep breath, a glimmer of hope returning to his weary soul.

I replied quickly. I didn't want to cause any more commotion. I turned around, trying to walk back towards the house. One step. Two steps. My head was throbbing. My vision began to blur. The voices sounded distant. "Are you sure—" The third step felt empty. The floor seemed to disappear from under my feet. And the world went dark. The darkness didn't feel like falling. It was more like being pulled backward. Far away. To a place I had long wanted to forget.

she admitted, her voice trembling. Kade’s gaze was unwavering as he looked at Evelyn. “Then take that step into the light,” he encouraged. “Let go of the darkness that holds you back.” With newfound courage, Evelyn took a tentative step forward, her heart racing. The shadows around her flickered, unsure of themselves in the face of their unity. “I choose to embrace the light!” she declared, stepping fully into the warmth of their bond. As she did, the shadows recoiled, hissing in frustration. “You think you can escape me? You will always be bound by your darkness!” the figure shrieked, its voice echoing with malice.

The soldiers froze at the edge of the light, weapons shaking. The machines did not advance further. They waited. For me. Rain poured harder, drenching everything, washing the world into blurred shapes and streaks. My wrists ached in their restraints. My heart hammered so hard it hurt. I looked at Adrian one last time. At Seraphine. At the crowd. At the machines that had learned too much too fast. Then I made the only choice left to me. I stepped forward. Into the light. And the world held its breath.

Then, with purpose, I tossed it into the trash can. The sharp, hollow clink of metal hitting the bottom echoed through the quiet night. The wind brushed against me, its chill settling over my skin. I looked out over the night view, where even the dimmest stars held a faint trace of light. Then, I turned and stepped back inside, closing the door behind me. In that moment, I felt a stillness I had never known. Everything in the past had finally fallen with the stars into endless darkness. And ahead of me, there lay countless possibilities that I could explore one by one.
