Her wrists bore angry welts from the silver chains, and each time she shifted her weight, they reopened with a sting sharp enough to blur her vision.

Each sound was a cruel reminder that the world outside carried on as though she didn’t exist.

They pulse with a steady rhythm, matching the beat of her heart, binding not just her physical form but something far more essential. Her face is peaceful now, almost serene, but I can see the fractures in her aura—hairline cracks where darkness has seeped in and light has leaked out.

Something terrible was going on , somewhere within the Nation, and Marianna could only wonder what. Hurriedly, she dragged her luggage which contained her essentials to the doorstep.
