00:00Your God she brought back from the Dawn Temple is practically indestructible.
00:04It will be a perfect fit for Lyra.
00:06Once we extract Seraphina's divine power,
00:09it won't take long for Lyra to regain her original form.
00:12I've waited 300 years for this day.
00:16Isn't this too ruthless?
00:18No matter what, she has nurtured Lyra for you.
00:20She was struck by the Blade of Curses.
00:22No medicine in existence could heal that.
00:24I used half my divine power to save her and gave her 300 years of happiness.
00:29Over the years, every rare herb we could find in the Three Realms went straight into her body.
00:33She's enjoyed all of this.
00:34It's only fair she repays it to Lyra now.
00:36Standing outside the heavy doors,
00:37I felt as if the heavenly lightning had struck me all over again.
00:41I stumbled back to my room, my entire body trembling uncontrollably.
00:45My blood ran cold.
00:46The suffocating terror mirrored exactly how I felt on the day I married Seravius.
00:52During that wedding, Seravius had suddenly turned on me.
00:55He stole my septal.
00:57He stole, critically wounded me, and butchered my people.
01:01As I lay dying, the Lord of the Underhill defied the heavens to save me.
01:06He risked his life to protect me and made me his wife.
01:09After we married, his devotion had utterly flawless.
01:12I had been pregnant for 99 years.
01:15In just one more year, the child would be born.
01:17He had promised me that once the baby arrived,
01:19he would accompany me back to the heavenly realm to take back everything Seravius had stolen.
01:23I believed him.
01:24I loved him with every fiber of my being.
01:26Never in my wildest nightmares did I imagine he merely saw me as a vessel.
01:30An incubator meant to resurrect the woman he truly loved.
01:33Seeing my violent trembles, my handmaid Iris rushed over with a blanket,
01:36thinking my chronic illness was acting up.
01:38My lady gets cold so easily.
01:40The Lord commanded that you must drink your herbal tonic after lunch.
01:44He even had the starlight blooms brought down from the heavenly realm to replenish your divine power.
01:49Iris was a healer handmaid Aetherian had specifically brought from the heavenly realm to serve me.
01:53She knew how impossibly rare starlight blooms were.
01:56They grew only on the highest cliffs of the heavenly domains,
01:59blooming once every few centuries,
02:00and withered the moment sunlight touched them.
02:03For our 300 years of marriage, Aetherian had treated me like glass.
02:07Knowing I missed my home,
02:08he frequently sent his men to procure heavenly artifacts just to make me smile.
02:12The underworld was perpetually freezing,
02:14so he built me a climate-controlled palace modeled exactly after my home in the heavens.
02:18Afraid I would be lonely,
02:19he moved his study here,
02:20working by my side every day.
02:22Saving me had left him with lingering injuries.
02:24Whenever he overworked himself,
02:26he suffered agonizing pain,
02:27but he would always smile through it,
02:29telling me that as long as I was safe,
02:30every sacrifice was worth it.
02:32His sincerity had won me over.
02:33Once I learned I was pregnant,
02:35I swore I would protect this child with my life,
02:37but it was all a lie.
02:38Everything he did was for Lyra.
02:39He even planned to strip me of my divine power
02:42and hand it over to her once she was born.
02:44As I forced down the bitter tonic,
02:45the movements in my womb grew violently erratic.
02:47Blinding pain ripped through my abdomen,
02:50leaving me drenched in cold sweat.
02:51That was when the horrifying realization hit me.
02:53The tonic wasn't for me at all.
02:55He was feeding Lyra.
02:57He was accelerating her growth.
02:58No wonder normal divine pregnancies lasted 200 years,
03:01yet I was already showing signs of labor at 100.
03:04I took several deep,
03:05shethering breaths until my racing heart settled.
03:08The truth was crystal clear.
03:09It was all a meticulously crafted trap.
03:12But perhaps it wasn't too late to run.
03:14In our three centuries of marriage,
03:16he had never once taken me back to the heavenly realm,
03:19claiming my fragile body couldn't withstand
03:20the lightning bat lesion at Tenlin gates.
03:22But I'd rather take my chances with the heavenly tribulation
03:25than be discarded like trash after giving birth to Lyra.
03:28If I survived the lightning,
03:30I could return to the dawn temple
03:31and retrieve the primordial artifact my mother left me.
03:34Tears blurred my vision as I swallowed
03:36the remaining starlight bloom whole,
03:38roots and all.
03:39I made a vow.
03:40I would never let Lyra be born.
03:42And if I made it out alive,
03:43I would make Aetherian pay in blood.
03:46I channeled every ounce of my fading strength
03:48to suppress the violent movements in my womb.
03:51I coughed up a mouthful of blood,
03:53the crimson splatter staining a decorative chest nearby.
03:56It was the chest containing every gift
03:59he had given me during our courtship.
04:01Fighting through the agonizing cramps,
04:03I pulled out a magnificent gown woven entirely from gold threads.
04:08Aetherian had sort out the giant race,
04:10mining the purest ore from their ancient reserves.
04:13He spent three years drawing the gold into thread,
04:16weaving this gown stitch by stitch with his own hands.
04:19On our wedding day,
04:20dignitaries from across the three realms attended.
04:23There wasn't a soul who didn't envy me.
04:26But right now, the golden threads burn my eyes like needles.
04:30With a flick of my wrist,
04:31I summoned a flame, fully intending to incinerate the dress.
04:35Suddenly, the door swung open.
04:37Aetherian walked in.
04:39Did you drink your medicine today, darling?
04:42What made you dig up the wedding dress?
04:44I heard the giants guarding the gold mines
04:47were imprisoned by the heavenly realm
04:48for 300 years for unelaparated mining.
04:52Now that our wedding is long past,
04:54why don't we melt this dress down and return the gold to them?
04:57Aetherian's face instantly dropped.
04:59No, I'm saving this dress for-
05:01He cut himself off, quickly recovering.
05:04Let's keep it as a mementi.
05:05After all, it's a testament to our love.
05:07Be good, Serafina.
05:09Put it back.
05:10Hearing the word love from his lips
05:12brought the memory of his conversation with Morpheus crashing back.
05:16A hot wave of fury surged through my veins.
05:18I ignited a fireball and hurled it straight at the gown.
05:21Aetherian lunged forward,
05:23plunging his bare hands into the magical flames to snatch the dress back.
05:27The fire instantly seared his flesh,
05:29leaving his hands blistered and bleeding.
05:31Yet he didn't even flinch.
05:33He just pulled the dress to his chest,
05:34whispering as the hem of the gown tumbled from his arms.
05:37My eyes caught something stitched into the inner lining.
05:41Lyra.
05:41I froze.
05:42He had woven this dress by hand, alone.
05:45It wasn't for me.
05:46He had made it for Lyra.
05:47No wonder he panicked when I suggested melting it down.
05:50He was willing to burn his own hands to protect it.
05:53I reached out, ready to torch the entire chest of jewelry.
05:57Serafina, are you out of your mind?
05:59Keep throwing this tantrum and I'll throw you into the Abyss of Shadow.
06:03I flinched, all the color draining from my face.
06:06The Abyss of Shadows.
06:08That was the underworld's maximum security prison.
06:12Seeing my stricken expression, his tone softened.
06:15He reached out to pull me into an embrace.
06:18Serafina, I was joking.
06:20Promise me you won't touch these things again.
06:22And I'll make you your favorite honey-glazed figs.
06:26How does that sound?
06:27I bit the inside of my cheek so hard I tasted copper, refusing to speak.
06:32He tried to coax me a few more times, his voice a gentle hum,
06:36but I simply closed my eyes and turned my face away.
06:38Fine.
06:39Since you want to be stubborn, go cool your head in the deep dungeons!
06:43The Abyss of Shadows was a living nightmare.
06:46Mangled corpses and bleached bones.
06:48I held my swollen belly, carefully navigating the treacherous path.
06:52But by the time we reached the cell, my lower back felt like it was splitting in two.
06:56My lady, I really don't get it.
06:58The Lord treats you so well.
07:00Couples fight all the time.
07:02Why couldn't you just apologize?
07:05Did it really have to come to this?
07:06The other guard nodded in agreement.
07:08Knowing I was the Lord's wife, they didn't dare treat me roughly.
07:11Suddenly, a shrill, piercing female voice echoed from inside my womb.
07:16Punish her, you useless trash.
07:19Do you think she's here on vacation?
07:22I stared at my stomach in sheer horror.
07:24It was Lyra's voice.
07:26She had already developed awareness of the outside world.
07:29She was communicating with her former subordinates through my flesh.
07:33Lady Lyra, is it you?
07:36You're alive.
07:37Shut up.
07:39If you know it's me, then punish this bitch.
07:44If you disobey me, I'll make you wish you were dead when I get out.
07:48Lyra had been the underworld's war goddess.
07:51There wasn't a soldier in the realm who hadn't suffered under her command.
07:55The two guards exchanged a dark look, all prior hesitation vanishing.
07:59They dragged me toward the river of fire.
08:02Suspended over the roaring, molten current was an iron cage.
08:05They forced the cage open and shoved me inside.
08:08The moment my shoulder grazed the iron roars, I heard the sickening hiss of searing flesh.
08:12The stench of my own roasting skin flooded my nostrils.
08:15Lyra's soul temporarily detached from my womb, hovering nearby to revel in my agony.
08:20The cage was suffocatingly small.
08:22I couldn't even shift my weight.
08:24My clothes melted upon contact with the bars, dripping away in charred clumps.
08:28My bare skin pressed directly against the superheated metal.
08:31It blistered, split, and bled.
08:33But the blood evaporated into steam before it could even hit the ground.
08:36I convulsed in agony.
08:38I wanted to scream, but my throat was so storaged that no sound came out.
08:42Can't take it anymore, you pathetic bitch.
08:44The river of fire won't kill a god, but it will make every inch of your body remember what pain
08:50is.
08:50How long do you think it'll take before you pass out?
08:53A day?
08:54Three days?
08:55I didn't answer.
08:56I didn't have the strength left to try.
08:58Time lost all meaning.
08:59My consciousness began to fray.
09:01I couldn't feel my arms or legs anymore.
09:03The only thought echoing my shattered mind was, I am going to die.
09:06In the palace, Aetherian finished preparing the honey-glazed figs.
09:09He wiped his hands and mentally linked with the guards.
09:12Has she learned her lesson?
09:14If she's done reflecting, bring her up.
09:16I made her favorite pastries.
09:18We can go for a walk after she eats.
09:20My lord, the lady hasn't said a word.
09:23She's just been pretending to sleep.
09:25Through the mental link, they sent him a manipulated visual of me curled up on the ground.
09:29My clothes intact, breathing steadily, making it look as though I was merely napping in an ordinary cell.
09:35Keep her locked up!
09:36I refuse to believe I can't break her stubbornness!
09:40Smashing the plate of honey-glazed figs to the floor.
09:41Seeing me on the brink of death, Lyra panicked that she might lose her host.
09:45She quickly darted back into my womb, using her own divine power to shield my heart.
09:49But she wasn't showing mercy.
09:51She deliberately kept me conscious, crashing violently inside my stomach so I would feel
09:55every agonizing second of the flames.
09:57The pain was unbearable.
09:58I knew she was doing it on purpose, but I was completely powerless to suppress her.
10:02You whore!
10:03You took advantage of my death to steal Aetherian, hoarding everything that belonged to me!
10:09Today, I'm going to make you pay it back tenfold!
10:12Lyra screamed as she punched and kicked my insides.
10:14Cold sweat poured down my face as my bloody hands gripped the red-hot iron bars so hard
10:19the metal wore.
10:19Stop struggling!
10:20Just enjoy the ride!
10:23Her phantom hand reaching up to squeeze my heart.
10:26Right as my vision went black from lack of oxygen, she'd let go, only to do it again and
10:29again, treating my torture like a morbid game.
10:32Just as the pain reached a breaking, a brilliant golden light erupted from my chest.
10:36Strange, ethereal threads extended from my body, surging with an unfamiliar, chaotic divine
10:40power that nearly blew the iron cage apart.
10:42In the royal bedroom, Aetherian had just hugged my pillow, preparing to sleep, when his heart
10:47and leave started racing.
10:49Serafina!
10:50The guards just reported that the lady is still resting, my lord.
10:54It's almost midnight, why not check on her tomorrow?
10:57A night of sleep might be exactly what she needs to see reason.
11:02Aetherian nodded slowly and lay back back to him.
11:05Down by the river of fire, my handmade iris dropped to her knees in front of my cage, sobbing
11:09uncontrollably.
11:10My lady!
11:12Who did this to you?
11:14When my divine power leaked, she sensed it and used the cloaking spell I had taught her
11:18to sneak into the dungeons.
11:20I was too weak to even open my eyes.
11:22I only recognized her by her voice.
11:24Unable to speak, I gathered enough strength to trace letters in the ash on the floor.
11:29She pulled out the ones I hadn't finished.
11:31Twelve stalks in total.
11:32Ignoring my scorched, bleeding throat, I swallowed them all at once.
11:35Twelve starlight blooms will only buy you two hours of power!
11:38What will you do after that?
11:39I offered her a weak, blood-stained smile.
11:42Two hours.
11:43That was more than enough time to fly to the heavenly realm and force a miscarriage.
11:46The temporary surge of divine power gave me the strength to suppress Lyra and heal the
11:50superficial burns covering my body.
11:52I blasted my way out of the Abyss of Shadows and shot upward, hurtling straight towards the heavenly realm.
11:57Half an hour later, the magical ring on my finger vibrated.
12:00Aetherian's voice echoed in my mind.
12:02Seraphina, where are you?
12:03Come back.
12:04I made the honey-glazed figs.
12:06It was an artifact we forged together when we married, allowing us to communicate across realms.
12:10I ignored him, pushing myself to fly faster.
12:13Seraphina!
12:13Stop hiding from me!
12:15My patience is wearing thin!
12:17Then, I heard the blood-glading screams of the two guards through the connection.
12:21Deep in the Abyss of Shadows, Aetherian stood before the molten cage, his face twisted into
12:25a mask of pure terror and rage.
12:27His suffocating divine Arama crushed the soldiers to the floor.
12:30The cage had been scrubbed clean, completely devoid of my presence.
12:33But it was too clean.
12:34That was what made him suspicious.
12:36He had sensed a heavenly aura here last night.
12:38Why was it completely gone now?
12:40The lady just vanished out of nowhere.
12:42My lord, we swear we had nothing to do with it!
12:45Find her!
12:46The entire Abyss was turned upside down.
12:48The river of fire raged, torturing the damned souls within, and the underheld echoed with
12:53screams of agony.
12:54Where is she?
12:55How can there be no trace of her?
12:57Aetherian was losing his mind.
12:59His eyes bloodshot from days without sleep.
13:01The ring pulsed wildly with his calls, hardening my heart.
13:04I ripped the ring from my finger and hurled it into the void below, finally severing his
13:08hold on me.
13:09Just before my divine power ran dry, I breached the heavenly gates.
13:12Before my feet could even touch the ground, a massive bolt of heavenly lightning struck
13:16down from the sky.
13:17I channeled the very last remnants of the starlight room's power to brace myself, but the impact
13:22sent me crashing to the floor, coughing up blood.
13:24When I tried to push myself up, I realized my body was completely empty.
13:29I had no divine power left.
13:31Freed from my suppression, Lila began screaming from inside my womb.
13:35You crazy bitch!
13:36What are you doing?
13:37If you want to die, don't drag me down with you!
13:39Go back!
13:40The second bolt of lightning tore through the sky.
13:42My war god armor manifest, shielding me from the catastrophic blow.
13:46Lila instantly stopped screaming.
13:48The armor shattered, the backlash searing my flesh and heavily wounding her soul inside
13:52me.
13:53But it wasn't enough.
13:54I wanted her dead.
13:55Down in the underworld, Aetherian heard the thunderclaps and finally realized what was
13:59happening.
13:59I was being judged by the heavenly tribulation.
14:02Pain ripped through his chest as he shot toward the heavens.
14:05As the third and deadliest bolt of lightning descended, he arrived just in time to intercept
14:09half of the blast.
14:10Even though he absorbed most of it, I had nothing left to defend myself.
14:14I collapsed, my abdomen erupting in blinding agony.
14:17Serafina, are you insane?
14:19But a split second before he reached me, Lyra tore her way out of my body.
14:25Aetherian, save me!
14:26This bitch tried to kill me with the lightning!
14:29But she looked nothing like the majestic portraits Aetherim kept hidden in his study.
14:34Half of her face was mangled by horrific burn scars, devoid of any war goddess glory.
14:39The lightning damage and the premature birth had rumened her.
14:43She glared at me with pure venom, stumbling forward with her hands outstretched, trying to
14:48strangle me.
14:49I threw my hand up to push her away.
14:52With her weakened state, she flew backward like a paper doll, crashing directly into Aetherian's
14:58arms.
14:59Aetherian, I just wanted to help her up, and she tried to push me off the edge of the realm!
15:04Aetherian raised his hand and struck me hard across the face.
15:08The slap echoed like a gunshot.
15:10Serafina!
15:10You heartless monster!
15:12You tried to use the heavenly lightning to execute Lyra, leaving her disfigured and premature.
15:17For three hundred years, I treated you like a queen!
15:20I merely borrow your womb!
15:21I never intended to harm you!
15:23How could you be this vicious?!
15:25I couldn't speak.
15:26I just stared at him.
15:28My face is ruined.
15:30I'd rather be dead than live like this.
15:34Just kill me.
15:37No, no, I have a way to fix you.
15:39Just trust me.
15:40What way?
15:41Flaying the skin off my face and grafting it onto hers.
15:44I spat out another mouthful of blood.
15:46I didn't have the energy to argue anymore.
15:49I didn't even want to.
15:50Lyra was the one trying to kill me.
15:52But the moment she played the victim, he believed her without a second thought.
15:57I was lying there in a pool of my own blood.
16:00My armor shattered to pieces, yet all he saw was her.
16:03I looked down at my broken body.
16:05The humiliation of being exiled from the heavenly realm years ago washing over me anew.
16:10A sphere of fire ignited in Aetherian's palm, ready to strike me down.
16:15But before he could cast it, a blinding beam of white light shot from the distance.
16:19I didn't see who cast it before the world went black.
16:22I don't know how long I was out, but I woke up in a massive, sunlit bed.
16:26I shifted my limbs.
16:28The agonizing heaviness was gone.
16:30The burns from the heavenly lightning had vanished without a trace.
16:34But what truly shocked me was the power stirring deep within my soul.
16:37It felt as though an ancient entity inside me was slowly opening its eyes.
16:42The last thing I remembered was Assyrian preparing to execute me.
16:46Why was I perfectly fine, lying in this lavish palace?
16:49I bolted upright in shock.
16:51A man in flowing white robes, wearing a crown of golden laurel leaves, walked into the room.
16:56Seeing me awake, his face lit up, and he pulled me into a tight embrace.
17:00Serafina, you're finally awake.
17:03Does anything hurt?
17:04I stared at him in bewilderment.
17:06Realizing my confusion, he offered a fond, indulgent smile and gently flicked my forehead.
17:12A flood of memories that didn't belong to me crashed into my mind.
17:15When I was expelled from the heavenly realm three centuries ago, a single tear I left behind
17:20drifted to the steps of this very palace.
17:22The domain of the primordial god Orion.
17:25The tear transformed into a tiny, ethereal serpent made of light.
17:29Orion kept the little light snake as a pet.
17:31Over the last 300 years, bathed in the spiritual energy of a primordial god, the serpent slowly
17:37took on my physical form.
17:39Orion had offered to reconstruct a proper physical body for her, but she refused.
17:44Because a Tyrion had cloaked my aura in the underworld, Orion couldn't locate me.
17:50Thank you for treating me with such care.
17:53But I am not her.
17:54I cannot stay here.
17:56I tried to pull away.
17:58He leaned in and kissed me fiercely.
18:00The sensation was dizzying, of the serpent's desperate longing and my own instinctive resistance.
18:05I didn't know whether to push him away or kiss him back.
18:08He kissed me until my mind went blank.
18:11He suddenly froze.
18:12He pulled back, chest heaving.
18:15I'm sorry.
18:16I forgot you just gave birth.
18:18Your body is still recovering.
18:21I rushed this.
18:22Focus on healing first.
18:23I hastily pulled my robes up, but a wave of profound gratitude washed over me.
18:28Unlike a Tyrion, Orion understood boundaries.
18:31I was desperate to regain my strength so I could exact my revenge.
18:35Seeing my urgency, Orion literally extracted his own divine power and infused it into my veins.
18:41He fed me countless celestive herbs.
18:43Within a week, 30-40% of my original power had returned.
18:47More importantly, the dormant power of fate inside me was slowly awakening.
18:51Just as I was plotting my revenge on my ex-husband, Seravius, the bastard delivered himself to my doorstep.
18:58Seraphina, my beautiful fiancé.
19:00It was my father who forced me to take your septer that day.
19:03There hasn't been a single day in the last 300 years that I haven't thought of you.
19:07Will you return to the heavenly realm and be my queen?
19:09He put on a masterful display of remorse, but my heart felt nothing but venomous hatred.
19:14I knew exactly what had happened.
19:16He stole the Scepter of Dawn to murder his own father and seize the throne.
19:20No one forced him.
19:21It was his choice.
19:22He knew I was suffering in the underworld for three centuries, yet he never once came looking for me.
19:28He was only here because he sensed my power growing.
19:31The Scepter of Dawn was reacting to its true master, and he was losing control of it.
19:36I was going to make him pay for the humiliation of my exile and the 300 years of torture in
19:41the underworld.
19:41Today, even if it cost me my life, I would have my revenge.
19:45Gripping the Starforged sword Orion had given me, I charged.
19:49Ceravus stood his ground, a sickeningly arrogant smirk playing on his lips.
19:52He knew my body was still weak, and I didn't have the septer.
19:55His little apology speech was just a formality.
19:58He wanted to coax me back without a fight so he could torture me behind closed doors.
20:01During the clash, he tactically forced me backward, driving us down toward the mortal realm.
20:07The mortal world had no divine oversight.
20:10With his countless legions killing me quietly down there with child's play,
20:15just as Ceravus moved in for the kill, a blinding golden light struck the earth.
20:20Orion materiized out of thin air, throwing a protective arm in front of me.
20:24Seraphina, leave this filth to me.
20:27Don't dirty your hands.
20:29His divine arima erupted like a tidal ray.
20:32Even as the heavenly god king, wielding two elemental stepsels,
20:36Ceravius could barely hold his ground against the primordial god.
20:40Taking advantage of the distraction, I closed my eyes,
20:43reaching out with the threads of my returning power
20:45to summon the sepulor of dawn from within Ceravius' chest.
20:50Ceravius gasped, clupping his heart as he frantically tried to repress the weapon,
20:54but it was useless.
20:55The scepter ripped its way out of his chest and flew into my waiting hand,
20:59radiating a familiar, scorching warmth.
21:02The moment my fingers closed around the hilt,
21:04an explosive shockwave of light leveled the battlefield.
21:07It was singing for me.
21:08So what if you're the god king?
21:10You touch my woman.
21:11You pay the ultimate price.
21:13With a mere flick of his finger,
21:15Orion yanked the second artifact, the Scepter of Thunder,
21:18straight out of Ceravius' body.
21:20It floated in the air, humming with trapped lightning.
21:23Your woman?
21:25Ceravius choked out, his eyes wide with horror
21:27as his body illivoluntarily dropped to its knees.
21:30She is my fiancée.
21:31Before he could finish, his divine form shattered,
21:34reverting to his true, pathetic shape,
21:36a plucked, golden crow.
21:38You murdered your wife and slaughtered your father.
21:40You deserve worse than death.
21:42With a sweeping gesture,
21:43he swatted the miserable bird over,
21:45the edge of the bottomless abyss.
21:47Seraphina, let's go home.
21:49The apples in the sanctuary orchard are ripe.
21:51I'll pick the sweetest ones for you.
21:53He pulled me into his arms,
21:56gazing at me with overwhelming tenness.
21:58I was moved by how fiercely he protected me,
22:01but my body still instinctively tent.
22:03I wasn't used to this kind of intimacy.
22:05In the brief moment I had summoned the septal,
22:07I caught Orion glancing at me from the corner of his eye.
22:10It was a dark, complicated look.
22:12One I couldn't quite decipher.
22:14But regardless, he had just eradicated Ceravius.
22:17He had helped me extract my revenge.
22:19I cast one last look towards the heavenly realm.
22:22A silent goodbye to my past.
22:25That night, back in Orion's sanctuary,
22:27my sleace plagued by violent nightmares.
22:29It started peacefully.
22:31My clan dancing and singing around a bonfire.
22:34Then, the world warped into hell.
22:36Severed limbs and fountains of blood flooded my vision.
22:39Sister, save me!
22:40Auntie, it hurts!
22:42The screams of my family tore through my skull.
22:45I shot up in bed, screaming, drenched in a cold sweat.
22:48A familiar voice broke through the panic.
22:50My lady, don't be afraid.
22:51It's just a nightmare.
22:53I blinked against the darknesses.
22:55It was Iris.
22:56How did you get to the sanctuary?
22:58Aetherian actually let you leave?
23:00Her eyes were red, her voice thick with tears.
23:02I missed you so much, my lady.
23:04I begged the lord on my knees to let me go.
23:07When he heard I was coming to find you, he didn't stop me.
23:10She gently wiped the sweat from my forehead and offered me a cup of hot tea,
23:14carefully bringing it to my lips.
23:15Just as the rim touched my mouth, a memory sparked in my mind.
23:19By the way, when my uncle was injured by the Hydra,
23:22I heard you took care of him for three years before he recovered.
23:26I saw him in my dream just now.
23:28He said he misses you.
23:29Iris froze.
23:30A flicker of panic crossed her eyes before she nodded vigorously.
23:34I miss him every day, too.
23:36If Saravus hadn't been so cruel and banished our people,
23:39I could go back and see him right now.
23:41I stared into her eyes.
23:42They were beautiful, but entirely devoid of life.
23:46I backhanded the cup, splashing the scalding tea directly into her face.
23:50My uncle was killed instantly by the Titan gods!
23:53You never took care of him for three years!
23:56You're not Iris!
23:58As the enchanted tea burned her skin, thick green smoke bullowed from her face.
24:03When the smoke cleared, it revealed Lyra's grotesquely scarred visilage.
24:07She threw her head back and cackled.
24:10Iris has been dead for weeks!
24:12The moment she helped you escape, I threw her into the Abyss of Shadows!
24:16A pathetic little handmaid.
24:19She couldn't even survive the lightest torture.
24:21I flag her alive.
24:23She died screaming.
24:24It's a shame you saw through my disguise.
24:26I was going to trick you into coming back to the underworld to butcher you properly.
24:31You pathetic bitch!
24:32I really underestimated you!
24:34Rage and grief blinded me.
24:36My hands shook violently.
24:38Iris had only survived the heavenly realm's purge because she had sneaked down to the
24:42mental world to play.
24:44Aethrian had moved mountains to find her and bring her to me.
24:47She was the very last of my bloodline.
24:49Unleashing my full divine power, I seized Lyra by the throat and dragged her out towards
24:54the Sanctuary's Judgment Cliff.
24:56Everything you did to me in the Abyss of Shadows, plus Iris' life, today you pay it all back
25:02in blood!
