I tried to get up once again, but he simply tightened his grip. ''Good thing you came then, isn't it? What did you find?'' He asked, completely ignoring me. ''Let's not discuss it here. The walls have ears'' She said, opening a void portal. Hades stood up, carrying me in a bridal style. He stepped into the portal, and we ended up in what appeared to be another one of his libraries, different from his study. And I was in complete awe.

Then timing. At exactly 9:00 p.m., Violet left the main floor. At 9:10, two guards swapped shifts. At 9:15, the kitchen lights dimmed.

This is not the field. This is Obscura. A lecture hall. No, a chamber beneath it. Circular. Carved stone. A spiral of ancient symbols I now recognize as both Everley and Thornveil lined the walls. A figure flitted across my hazy field of vision, voice dulled by time and memory loss, but I know the cadence. Deliberate. Refined. Female.

" It's beautiful " Veronica whispers and turns to me with teary eyes.

The council chamber buzzed with low, urgent voices as Seraphina, Malthea, and the Brotherhood stood around a glowing map spread across the wooden table. Enchanted runes pulsed, marking multiple locations scattered across Europe and the Middle East. “These are the sites where the Veiled Depths bleed through the surface,” Seraphina explained, her tone severe. “Each one houses ancient relics — anchors of power that could either strengthen us or be twisted by Valeria.” Malthea pointed toward one flashing symbol on the map. “We start here.
