Thin fractures spread across its surface, each one releasing waves of unstable magic that rippled through the cavern.The ground lurched beneath my feet."No..." I whispered.If the Heart died...The kingdom would die with it.Asterion's roar shook the chamber as he sprang toward Malakar. The great silver wolf crashed into him with enough force to send both of them skidding across the stone floor."Run, my Queen!" Asterion thundered into my mind."I'll hold him back!"Malakar laughed as he pushed the Guardian away with a burst of crimson energy."You still believe you can stop me, old wolf?"Dark flames burst from his sword.Asterion dodged, but the flames scorched his shoulder.

The fate of the kingdom depends on you.I took a slow breath and forced myself to step forward.The Moon Crown resting upon my head glowed softly, filling the tunnel with silver light. As its light spread, the darkness slowly retreated, revealing walls carved with ancient symbols unlike any I had seen before.The growl came again.Low.Powerful.Ancient.It vibrated through the stone beneath my feet."Who's there?" I called, trying to sound bravier than I felt. Silence answered.Then the shadows moved.A massive wolf stepped into the light.I froze. I saw him, he was so different from any wolf I had ever i

The warmth flowing through the Moon Crown remained, but for the first time since placing it upon my head, I felt its power being challenged.The air grew heavier.Breathing became difficult.The blue flames lining the walls turned violet before returning to silver, as though the palace itself was struggling against the darkness invading its halls.Queen Elena stepped beside me, her expression calm despite the danger."Do not let fear control you."I tore my eyes away from Malakar."I'm trying.""No."She gently shook her head."You are surviving. I need you to believe."Before I could answer, Malakar raised his blood-red sword toward the ceiling.A crimso

Tiny streams of silver light spiraled around it like living stars.I instinctively stepped back."I can't..."Queen Elena's gentle smile never wavered."You can.""I don't even know what it is.""It is your birthright."The crown stopped only inches from my face, hovering silently.It felt alive.Not dangerous.Waiting.My trembling fingers curled into fists."I don't know how to be a queen.""You are not being asked to become one."Queen Elena's silver eyes softened."You are only being asked to become yourself."A deafening roar shattered the moment."Enough!"Malakar slammed the tip of his blood-red sword against the stone floor.The entire throne room shook.His golden eyes burned with fury as he glared at the floatin

    Lyra's POVDarkness swallowed me whole.I screamed as I fell through an endless void, the wind whipping my hair across my face. There was no ground beneath me, no sky above me—only an endless sea of black that stretched in every direction.My heart hammered against my ribs."Father!" I cried.No one answered.The silver light that had burst from my body moments earlier had disappeared, leaving me completely alone.Then, just as suddenly as the fall had begun...My feet struck solid ground.I collapsed onto cold stone, the impact forcing the air from my lungs.For several seconds, I could do nothing but gasp.When I finally pushed myself upright, I realized I was no longer in the Forbidden Forest.Towering black pillars surrounded me, disappearing into a ceiling hidden by swirling silver mist.
