Eolsi clutches his throat, his breath hitching as the burning ichor takes hold. The Goddess of Ash flickers, her form unraveling into soot as the crypt around them tears itself apart. The gravity vortex pulls at the debris, drawing jagged stone pillars into the violet abyss below.
Goddess of Ash
Enjoy the silence of your own ticking clock, little vessel. Ten years is a lifetime for someone with no past.
Eolsi
She leaves me with nothing but this fire in my marrow and a deadline I can't even remember the beginning of.
With a final, sharp laugh that rings like clashing metal, the Goddess of Ash dissipates entirely into gray embers. Kaelen stands nearby, his eyes still swirling with the abyssal light of his true form, watching the empty space where she vanished. He turns his gaze toward the abyss, his form beginning to shimmer and fade into shadow, choosing to retreat into the deep void rather than remain in the collapsing tomb.
Kaelen
The contract is voided by her departure, but the weight of your choices remains yours to carry alone.
