The fault line came down to a single irreconcilable thing: the proceedings had made it impossible to serve the order's stated mission without serving its actual one, and those two missions had turned out to be different enough that serving one was betraying the other. You couldn't unsee what the documentation showed. You couldn't unknow what Saef and Lira had testified.

I didn't want her to sit in the library and idle away until late at night just to accompany me. Now, there was no one in the library except for me and the librarian. I packed my things and prepared to leave. As I stepped out of the library building, the evening breeze brushed against my exposed skin, sending shivers down my spine. In the dim corner, there stood a figure, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. I fumbled along the wall and found the switch for the porch light.

“You are stronger than that, Demika. You are the last of the bloodline of Wicca. Do not let the darkness claim you.” The ancient tome lies before her, its leather-bound cover worn and cracked with age. The Book of Shadows is far larger than she imagined, a massive, imposing presence that seems to hum with a life of its own.

Anna held onto the journal tightly, her mind racing. The book and mirror weren’t just cursed—they were anchors for the shadows.

"Evie, I found something that might explain what we saw in the hallway." She opened the book, flipping through yellowed pages filled with diagrams of shadow creatures, spell components, and dark enchantments. She stopped on a page titled "Umbra Servientes"—Shadow Servants. "This passage here," she whispered, tapping a paragraph, "says that shadows can be summoned and controlled by someone with enough power to bend them to their will. But they aren’t just for show.

She tries resisting, but her new home holds a monster that brings that desire out. And she realizes that her life may be a lie." "What's called, Christine?" I smiled at her question.

She was screaming in the fire ball and I could smell burning flesh and I knew that it was actually hurting her but then she raised her arms up and the shadows appeared from behind her and approached me with significant force and knocked me off my feet and I dropped the fireball. I got back up and the shadows were surrounding me and I couldn't see the witch anywhere and I used the wind element to force the shadows to move.
