The question hung in the air like a blade.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IWlgLlv2d
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBgjvzDcsG
Cel's breath stopped.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPdZjg8H6M
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZJ4gjKu3Y
His mind went blank - then exploded.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt27Oju0TGN
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdC39tnRIes
She knew. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tRSAcYmcQ
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrcGilc2rc
Silent Moon materialized in his grip before conscious thought caught up. Four phases ignited along the blade as his body moved on pure instinct, cutting toward her throat in a strike meant to kill. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlN1g9pOpb
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzALE9EluaM
Hestia's weapon appeared instantly, intercepting his attack with a sharp ring of steel. Her eyes went wide - not with fear, but shock.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYdYYuTwyg
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnKCLxseSL
Then they hardened.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bHx7CoMgz
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDKmJQvUcX
Her longsword redirected his blade with brutal efficiency. She spun away, creating distance, settling into a combat stance.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUQK2dDujK
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWn4ji4K8v
Cel pressed forward, each strike powered by the full weight of his divinely enhanced strength. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYCJvOET9X
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZPjIxibz4
The impact of their blades meeting sent shockwaves through the training ground. Hestia's arms trembled from the force, her boots skidding backward across packed earth.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU35om5ZG8
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38wjqjWNNT
She'd never felt this from him before. The true weight behind his attacks.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo94nafhM1I
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWF1J3Vpa4
Her crimson eyes blazed with focus as she adjusted her stance, blade rising to meet his next strike.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlR65WNRsr
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94hsv1HB6E
He came at her like a beast - wild, uncontrolled, full of openings any skilled fighter could exploit.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJah6ziu4sh
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrISgtL0hW
But the sheer power behind each blow made exploitation impossible.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK53xoGE4HL
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8MtUKNH6e
Hestia deflected a horizontal slash and pivoted, attempting to circle into his blind spot. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tKDKkERWK
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog73NTS9JG
Cel turned with her instantly. Silent Moon traced patterns meant to overwhelm through pure aggression, each strike flowing into the next without losing pace.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqu3qalDhb
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mPnczGEnJ
Hestia's superior technique kept her alive. She redirected rather than blocked, deflected rather than met his strikes head-on. Her footwork carried her through angles that should have been impossible, blade weaving defensive patterns that turned aside attacks meant to break bone.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4anoix2eH
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxnUIDltoX
Still, she was losing ground.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Pq93H39SR
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnH60bX91h
Each deflection cost her. Each redirection pushed her closer to the edge of her capabilities. Against anyone else, her skill would have been enough.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1jnslylkk
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVgot8lpP2
But against this - against the full weight of a divinely forged body with nothing held back - it wasn't.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdhqJD9R0n
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuDRtAx5RL
A wild overhead strike came down with enough force to split stone. She caught it on her crossguard and the impact drove her to one knee.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZJARkKwBg
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCQmzU9omU
Cel's boot lashed out, catching her in the ribs.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35AlpKplkJ
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqNPTvURV8
The kick sent her sprawling. She crashed into the dirt, gasping, vision blurring.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2cNo0WMIo
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3LsAnUQSK
Silent Moon descended in an arc.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MGsKGn5RV
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3oaVdBiux
Hestia's longsword met it at an angle, barely redirecting the blow past her shoulder. The edge sliced through strands of black hair - several locks drifted to the ground, severed clean. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUwURgKMmH
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxu3jODlbP
She spun inside his guard, blade rising toward his exposed side—106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzP4iaUzHE
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHozcjCb3Fa
His hand shot out.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYC7m6qrO13
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGz8wtmBLm
Fingers closed on her wrist, already blooming with frost. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZRyGGBIhm
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVGw8WsihV
The world shattered.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVrmUhsrc0
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNPRn3AmrA
A boy lay broken on ash-covered ground.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28uU1j3J2t
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOVioUbnnt
Brown hair matted with blood and gray dust. His torso torn open - massive gouges where claws had ripped through flesh and bone. One arm bent at an impossible angle. His face turned skyward, eyes glazed and unseeing.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYN3rn21Rz
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzdbqsuHcD
Blood pooled beneath him in dark streams, soaking into the ash. His chest rose and fell in shallow, desperate gasps that accomplished nothing. Each breath bubbled wet through punctured lungs.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHeR9kz8Iy
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe70oi2oLuf
The boy's lips moved soundlessly, forming words no one would hear. His fingers twitched once against the ground, grasping for something that wasn't there. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwrEMYMfHy
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6IvBWyHhF
Then went still. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyIMaQdfx5
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4xOofXKf5
Death came quietly in that desolate place. Without ceremony. Without witness. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkJHvV4NvI
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDK5Z60KsRS
Just a broken body bleeding into ash. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQOhcz0GGU
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37w96T395U
The vision released them.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIBoVbkdxz
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyE0uHiLEY
Cel staggered backward, hand falling away from Hestia's wrist. His breathing came harsh and rapid, mind reeling from what he'd just witnessed.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx3DYyrmKI
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOCQduTcIi
‘That… was me.’106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yKJU9hQ8r
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUykag6qezq
His death in the Ashlands. The moment after the creature had torn him apart. Before the trial. Before resurrection.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLTZASIgti
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxKdd6HzJV
But how—why—106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8LGpmyxGL
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK2y8QcBw8
Hestia stood motionless, eyes wide and uncomprehending. Her blade trembled in her grip. She stared at Cel like she'd never seen him before.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugd5TDiBBY
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaoLNFc1tx
Then her expression shifted.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5bybUxRhd
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZvoIjs1nI
Horror gave way to something colder. Harder.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSENVL16XC
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkfs4MUJIY
Her longsword came up, the crimson blade catching moonlight.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5Dn2mIcJT
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1RrpIlHCt
"Vile Demon."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzKDa41pwA
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxa6IqQZus
The word fell between them like a stone.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkKtbeMOGp
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbjikZIk0o
Cel's grip tightened on Silent Moon. His mind still churned with confusion.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOwXcykEVm
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYM9ufOwWO
But it didn't matter.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKlua7KeA0
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dcnA9tmSc
She knew something. Had seen something.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeudYb6r1y9
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwXHBMGP64
And she had to die for it.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AYWpuO5uo
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3V9N8PdiI
He moved.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXj3MpDnCX
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pGjbWSwvi
Hestia met him without hesitation.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqQJYV7BQh
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBP6afooHd
Her blade moved with lethal precision, each movement flowing seamlessly into the next.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0q9wNo32M
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpsjwZAm5h
Cel barely managed to raise Silent Moon in time.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy7a0GJgBD
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07fZtjiJ8H
Her blade came in low, then high, then from an angle that should have been impossible. A three-strike combination executed in rapid succession. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaUrnisIe1
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUliHr9K8q
Cel deflected the first two through pure instinct. The third slipped past his guard and opened a line across his shoulder.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SR7iZFPif
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt7UGVgITb
Blood welled up, dark against his skin.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitQh1kqWgM
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSi24iMEdr
Hestia pressed forward with renewed aggression, certainty burning cold in her eyes.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4plsnxoHx
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JAUQGPHLI
Cel's blade caught hers in a bind, forcing them face to face for a heartbeat.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3F1zueCvX
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCl9lKVaFd
Then she broke free with a twist that nearly tore Silent Moon from his grip. Her follow-up strike came for his throat—106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbvdy7QvPJ
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuRcV7H61B
Cel threw himself sideways, the blade missing by inches.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lWOEtGYPs
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxGEEwIDBE
They circled each other now, both breathing hard. Blood dripped from Cel's shoulder. Black hair clung to Hestia's neck where his blade had cut it short. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡij0MQoyqFx
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnkHKtnIAk
Neither spoke.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh8lmiT8YM
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpO17POgjfR
Just two people trying to kill each other beneath the indifferent moon.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nMqjlKZsf
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEgg48zQqJ
Cel moved first this time.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokmOZ8JO2F
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxkmDR5aBq
Raw strength met perfect technique in a clash that sent tremors through the training ground.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1aOMpuNZT
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkWoMqrxpR
Hestia's blade wove patterns meant exploit openings. Cel's strikes tried to overwhelm through sheer force.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn49fcwPiyV
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8AFlL5HOM
The gap between them had closed. Not in skill or strength - that remained as vast as ever - but in intent. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmB7EffN9L
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykHC315yFe
Cel feinted left, then thrusted Silent Moon toward her heart with everything he had. The strike was meant to punch through ribs, to pierce lung and ventricle.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyOkarwWzl
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7UMrEZSQW
Hestia read the feint. Her longsword came up not to deflect but to counter - blade aimed at the exposed flesh of his neck. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfDBVvzflH
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ztdYeLhH0
Silent Moon's edge found fabric at her chest. Her crimson blade touched skin at his throat.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63BYgeR3GR
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy26uX6Vbi
Lightning struck between them.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSapONyNIQ3
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB0P1hKaPA
The bolt hit the ground with deafening thunder, pure white light searing across Cel's vision. The shockwave threw both of them backward like dolls.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvlcJRMl7O
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr4YdSzw4B
Cel hit the earth hard enough to crater it. His bones rattled. His ears rang. Silent Moon skittered away across packed dirt.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldJfgj7R8a
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHlsAcPRb5
Through blurred vision, he saw Hestia sprawled several steps away, her weapon fallen from nerveless fingers.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqx9XVCn1V
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBLzoZj6Qi
A figure stood in the smoking crater where the lightning had struck.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMF2ocOZ3E
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgQ5RLbHP0
Esrin.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvII8d4oFX
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFX4qt8HHBX
Her ash-white hair stirred in wind that came from nowhere. Ruby eyes blazed with cold fury. Her glaive's blade drove into the earth between them, the weapon's length crackling with residual energy.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSVsYYf3dB
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0v3oKv0kR
"What do you think you're doing?" Esrin's voice cut through the ringing in Cel's ears like a blade. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09s2f3OjXg
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSKWxFbdGb
Neither of them answered immediately. Cel pushed himself to his feet, ribs protesting. Hestia rose more slowly, her crimson eyes never leaving Esrin's face. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBm8fPBal7
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZserroMAv
"Lady Esrin." Hestia's voice came formal, controlled despite the violence moments before. "Forgive the disturbance. I discovered something during our sparring - this student is not what he appears. He's a demon." 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hmDrgZ5To
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDfi5zvyx6
The certainty in her tone left no room for doubt. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oqfCkRYE3
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdExTGluise
Esrin's expression didn't shift. "You're wrong."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbrNbBv2L9
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pK2CteIUp
Hestia's composure cracked slightly.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi9sGt6iFJ
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZO8GhFtTl
"I can assure you - he is human."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJujjI1llPm
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4A5F9r66NJ
"Lady Esrin, I assure you, my trait—" Hestia began, urgency creeping into her measured tone.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAz0u6USfQ
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxnXAkZ8vY
"I don't care what your trait showed you." Esrin's voice carried absolute authority. "What I care about is that you just attempted to kill a fellow student based on an assumption."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM53LxOXQNE
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiXjJqY1gK
Hestia went very still.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1KgXE2J0N
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQbggSWLO5
"Return to your dormitory," Esrin continued. "And reflect on what you did."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaZ5VmsSNm
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv68AVqJNjA
For a long moment, Hestia didn't move. Her crimson eyes remained fixed on Cel, searching for something - truth, deception, confirmation of her fears. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBTPg2tvKL
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTAd8xGWjk
Then she dismissed her artifact into darkness and gave Esrin a deep, formal bow. "As you command, Lady Esrin." 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCyfMQ9D31
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZONjorWDLY
Without another word, she turned and walked away, her steps steady despite the violence that had just occurred. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNcYQqYte3
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDd704Lv5B
Cel watched her go, chest tight with emotions he couldn't name. Relief. Confusion. Residual fear.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMYYb6orx6
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9PiMp4Kly
When she disappeared around a corner, Esrin's attention shifted to him fully.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJzeQiANE9
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuPd20fEVu
The weight of her gaze made him want to step backward.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxKbr3irWg
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qKrjJZm6I
"As for you…"106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nU7DJLLeg
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdHiM7VTNT
Cel's throat worked. "I—"106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6BTcglOBT
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhhH1NMUi3
"Your task was to observe. To protect the other students if necessary." Her ruby eyes narrowed. "Not to fight them."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeM1RlO9tE
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkmNN2Xry6
"It just happened," Cel said. The excuse sounded weak even to his own ears. "I didn't mean—"106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKB3wJlRLo
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvderGuswWC
"You didn't mean to attack her with lethal intent?" Esrin's tone could have frozen water. "Because that's what I witnessed."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIZEIr5YrR
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlFLcyKdt7
Cel's hands curled into fists at his sides. He forced them to relax.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYr4etUqNr
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuoEIcz5BJ
"I'm sorry." The words came quiet. Genuine. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27u1Bh8wUY
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4UttYmoRS
"We voted to recruit you. That doesn't mean you're immune to consequences." Her voice dropped, carrying absolute certainty. "Step out of line again, and we won't bother voting. Are we clear?" 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyoiQW3dWQ
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QmyxxWp4p
Cel's breath caught. "Yes." 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcX75HCArt
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxAzMLAEtA
Esrin studied him for a long moment, expression unreadable.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKy0l2ugxn
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqlISTt0AH
Then she sighed - a sound so subtle he almost missed it. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86KogM6ege
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iXIpj0zcv
Cel’s gaze drifted toward where Hestia had disappeared.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWNmk70QNC
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCssQu73w7k
"What did she mean?" he asked. "About demons. What are they?" 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsqjY8n3HM
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRSLTzIrwE
Esrin opened her mouth to answer— 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlCcy8RCRq
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5YfhCDO6Q
Then her head snapped sideways. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMUB5Vcr9b
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKrxw9Q1iP
The movement was so sudden, so complete, that Cel's breath caught. Every line of her body had gone tense, focused on something he couldn't perceive.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4mHAYUuFY
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uSVFYg0mY
"What—"106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCdwVVz3VT
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfPnvWLrWV
A bell tolled.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxzK61wQzA
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVhNrqwn1J
Deep. Resonant. The sound rolled across the Academy grounds from somewhere in the city.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE5f0brFnL
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfidNfAnUC
Once. Twice. Three times.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdKQRYQarj
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfMytTlxiQ
Cel's brow furrowed. "What is that?"106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWxZ5JBOW1
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2HCRom10q
"A good opportunity." White wings erupted from her back in an explosion of light and feathers. Her hand closed on the back of his collar. "You're coming with me."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72abBkoVno
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBEUtnsFfj
"What opportun—" 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmtCtRd8Bv
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUxyjlnnWU
Then the world lurched.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpC07OLeZUI
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiTBlusCwI
Wind screamed past his ears. The training ground was gone - replaced by open sky stretching in every direction. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfPwSpW4vd
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ891ZYrZ6FJ
Esrin held him like a cat - one hand gripping his collar, his entire body dangling uselessly in her grasp.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4PNXLI6WE
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhqIqRoCp5
Terror flooded through him in cold waves.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQk5FFTu3b
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiPlA3t9zR
'Too high too high too high—'106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixS1mdq2eO
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnq38Em9a28
His hands scrabbled for purchase against her arm, finding nothing. Below, the Academy had already shrunk to toy-size. The capital sprawled out in every direction, lights twinkling like distant stars.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjrJPsJBt0
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5NnxEQ78l
Esrin ignored him completely. Her ruby eyes scanned the landscape ahead with clinical precision, tracking something he couldn't see.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ltbrTbXLN
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgkK8Z2inX
"There."106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN70MkIfzdE
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9wBOCZDzr
She banked sharply. Cel's body swung out from the momentum, gravity trying its best to claim him. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Vwd3xhRh0
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6vCKwA3GG
He was going to die. Going to fall. Going to— 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFOTokwLCr
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWacT0wxCmz
Impact. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBsepXuo0L
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0E1zpkswbW
Cel hit the ground, legs giving out immediately. He sprawled face-first across dirt, chest heaving, heart trying to hammer its way through his ribs. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfQFYEDC9n
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa571i5QhaR
Solid ground. Beautiful, wonderful, stable ground. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfS98ANSOm
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNzUOatyho
Slowly - so slowly - his breathing steadied. His vision stopped swimming. He pushed himself upright on shaking arms. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6hfNDgHoX
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQT5KpQMUFN
And froze. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGU2bfp7kaR
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1hfjuDnOy
Reality had split open ahead of him - a wound hanging in the air above empty ground. 106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4bvAVtsrH
106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww1Vgztopi
A rift.106Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8lS6qATRj
