Betrayed soul’s vengeance
"Alex, the curse, the Seeker, the sacrifices—all of it intersects."
I looked at my notebook and scribbled quickly: "Occult clues, ancient sacrifice, Seeker warning, price of power." My hand trembled as I wrote each word out.
Then I kept quiet, in the quietness of which I spoke aloud, "I would like vengeance, but I shouldn't be stained. I will use this black magic as a tool and never as a master."
I rose to my feet and made for the small window. "I will question more servants tomorrow. I will collect more strands of this detestable web. I will speak again to Rosa, to Marco, to anyone who can give me a crumb of the truth."
