Chapter 131

Go to Elara's Point of View:

Somewhere between worlds—beyond life, beyond death—where Elara stayed for a moment, light surrounding her. Endless. Infinite. But unlike the harsh brilliance of battle or the sterile white of fear, this light was warm. Gentle. Safe. It wrapped around her like a soft blanket on a winter night, soothing the ache in her soul.

Time felt slow, like it didn’t exist at all.
