00:13lyra to regain her original form i've waited 300 years for this day isn't this too ruthless
00:20no matter what she has nurtured lyra for you she was struck by the blade of curses no medicine in
00:26existence could heal that i used half my divine power to save her and gave her 300 years of happiness
00:32over the years every rare herb we could find in the three realms went straight into her body
00:36she's enjoyed all of this it's only fair she repays it to lyra now standing outside the heavy doors i
00:41felt as if the heavenly lightning had struck me all over again i stumbled back to my room my entire
00:47body trembling uncontrollably my blood ran cold the suffocating terror mirrored exactly how i felt on
00:53the day i married seravius during that wedding seravius had suddenly turned on me he stole my
01:00septal critically wounded me and butchered my people as i lay dying the lord of the underhill defied the
01:08heavens to save me he risked his life to protect me and made me his wife after we married his
01:14devotion
01:15had utterly flawless i had been pregnant for 99 years in just one more year the child would be born
01:21he had promised me that once the baby arrived he would accompany me back to the heavenly realm to
01:25take back everything seravius had stolen i believed him i loved him with every fiber of my being never
01:31in my wildest nightmares did i imagine he merely saw me as a vessel an incubator meant to resurrect the
01:36woman he truly loved seeing my violent trembles my handmade iris rushed over with a blanket thinking
01:41my chronic illness was acting up my lady gets cold so easily the lord commanded that you must drink
01:46your herbal tonic after lunch he even had the starlight blooms brought down from the heavenly
01:51realm to replenish your divine power iris was a healer handmade ethereen had specifically brought
01:56from the heavenly realm to serve me she knew how impossibly rare starlight blooms were they grew
02:01only on the highest cliffs of the heavenly domains blooming once every few centuries and withered the
02:06moment sunlight touched them for our 300 years of marriage ethereen had treated me like glass knowing i
02:12missed my home he frequently sent his men to procure heavenly artifacts just to make me smile the
02:17underworld was perpetually freezing so he built me a climate-controlled palace modeled exactly after
02:22my home in the heavens afraid i would be lonely he moved his study here working by my side every
02:26day
02:27saving me had left him with lingering injuries whenever he overworked himself he suffered agonizing
02:32pain but he would always smile through it telling me that as long as i was safe every sacrifice was
02:36worth it his sincerity had won me over once i learned i was pregnant i swore i would protect this
02:41child with
02:41my life but it was all a lie everything he did was for lyra he even planned to strip me
02:46of my divine
02:46power and hand it over to her once she was born as i forced down the bitter tonic the movements
02:51in my
02:51womb grew violently erratic blinding pain ripped through my abdomen leaving me drenched in cold sweat
02:56that was when the horrifying realization hit me the tonic wasn't for me at all he was feeding lyra
03:02he was accelerating her growth no wonder normal divine pregnancies lasted 200 years yet i was already
03:07showing signs of labor at 100 i took several deep shethering breaths until my racing heart settled
03:13the truth was crystal clear it was all a meticulously crafted trap but perhaps it wasn't too late to run
03:20in our three centuries of marriage he had never once taken me back to the heavenly realm claiming my
03:25fragile body couldn't withstand the lightning bat lesion at tenlin gates but i'd rather take my chances
03:30with the heavenly tribulation than be discarded like trash after giving birth to lyra if i survived the
03:35lightning i could return to the dawn temple and retrieve the primordial artifact my mother left me
03:40tears blurred my vision as i swallowed the remaining starlight bloom whole roots and all i made a vow
03:46i would never let lyra be born and if i made it out alive i would make etherian pay in
03:51blood i channeled
03:52every ounce of my fading strength to suppress the violent movements in my womb i coughed up a mouthful
03:58of blood the crimson splatter staining a decorative chest nearby it was the chest containing every gift
04:05he had given me during our courtship fighting through the agonizing cramps i pulled out a
04:10magnificent gown woven entirely from gold threads ethereum had sort out the giant race mining the
04:17purest ore from their ancient reserves he spent three years drawing the gold into thread weaving this
04:23gown stitch by stitch with his own hands on our wedding day dignitaries from across the three realms
04:29attended there wasn't a soul who didn't envy me but right now the golden threads burned my eyes like
04:36needles with a flick of my wrist i summoned a flame fully intending to incinerate the dress suddenly the
04:43door swung open ethereum walked in did you drink your medicine today darling what made you dig up the
04:50wedding dress i heard the giants guarding the gold mines were imprisoned by the heavenly realm for 300
04:56years for unelaperated mining now that our wedding is long past why don't we melt this dress down and
05:03return the gold to them ethereum's face instantly dropped no i'm saving this dress for he cut himself
05:09off quickly recovering let's keep it as a momenty after all it's a testament to our love be good seraphina
05:17put it back hearing the word love from his lips brought the memory of his conversation with morpheus
05:22crashing back a hot wave of fury surged through my veins i ignited a fireball and hurled it straight
05:28at the gown ethereum lunged forward plunging his bare hands into the magical flames to snatch the dress
05:34back the fire instantly seared his flesh leaving his hands blistered and bleeding yet he didn't even
05:40flinch he just pulled the dress to his chest whispering as the hem of the gown tumbled from his arms
05:45my
05:46eyes caught something stitched into the inner lining lyra i froze he had woven this dress by hand
05:52alone it wasn't for me he had made it for lyra no wonder he panicked when i suggested melting it
05:57down
05:58he was willing to burn his own hands to protect it i reached out ready to torch the entire chest
06:03of
06:03jewelry seraphina are you out of your mind keep throwing this tantrum and i'll throw you into the
06:10abyss of shadow i flinched all the color draining from my face the abyss of shadows that was the underworld's
06:18maximum security prison seeing my stricken expression his tone softened he reached out to
06:24pull me into an embrace seraphina i was joking promise me you won't touch these things again
06:30and i'll make you your favorite honey glazed figs how does that sound i bit the inside of
06:36my cheeks so hard i tasted copper refusing to speak he tried to coax me a few more times his
06:43voice a gentle hum but i simply closed my eyes and turned my face away fine since you want to
06:49be
06:49stubborn go cool your head in the deep dungeons the abyss of shadows was a living nightmare mangled
06:55corpses and bleached bones i held my swollen belly carefully navigating the treacherous path but by the
07:01time we reached the cell my lower back felt like it was splitting in two my lady i really don't
07:06get
07:06it the lord treats you so well couples fight all the time why couldn't you just apologize did it really
07:14have to come to this the other guard nodded in agreement knowing i was the lord's wife they didn't
07:19dare treat me roughly suddenly a shrill piercing female voice echoed from inside my womb punish her you
07:27useless trash do you think she's here on vacation i stared at my stomach in sheer horror it was lyra's
07:34voice she had already developed awareness of the outside world she was communicating with her former
07:39subordinates through my flesh lady lyra is it you you're alive shut up if you know it's me then punish
07:52this
07:52bitch if you disobey me i'll make you wish you were dead when i get out lyra had been the
07:59underworld's
07:59war goddess there wasn't a soldier in the realm who hadn't suffered under her command the two guards
08:06exchanged a dark look all prior hesitation vanishing they dragged me toward the river of fire suspended
08:12over the roaring molten current was an iron cage they forced the cage open and shoved me inside the
08:18moment my shoulder grazed the iron roars i heard the thickening hiss of searing flesh the stench of
08:22my own roasting skin flooded my nostrils lyra's soul temporarily detached from my womb hovering nearby
08:28to revel in my agony the cage was suffocatingly small i couldn't even shift my weight my clothes
08:34melted upon contact with the bars dripping away in charred clumps my bare skin pressed directly
08:39against the superheated metal it blistered split and bled but the blood evaporated into steam before
08:45it could even hit the ground i convulsed in agony i wanted to scream but my throat was so storage
08:51that
08:51no sound came out can't take it anymore you pathetic the river of fire won't kill a god but it
08:58will make
08:58every inch of your body remember what pain is how long do you think it'll take before you pass out
09:03a day three days i didn't answer i didn't have the strength left to try time lost all meaning my
09:10consciousness began to fray i couldn't feel my arms or legs anymore the only thought echoing
09:14my shattered mind was i am going to die in the palace ethereum finished preparing the honey glazed
09:20figs he wiped his hands and mentally linked with the guards has she learned her lesson
09:24if she's done reflecting bring her up i made her favorite pastries we can go for a walk after she
09:30eats my lord the lady hasn't said a word she's just been pretending to sleep through the mental link
09:37they sent him a manipulated visual of me curled up on the ground my clothes intact breathing steadily
09:42making it look as though i was merely napping in an ordinary cell keep her locked up i refuse to
09:49believe i can't break her stubbornness smashing the plate of honey pigs to the floor seeing me on the
09:53brink of death lyra panicked that she might lose her host she quickly darted back into my womb using her
09:59own divine power to shield my heart but she wasn't showing mercy she deliberately kept me conscious
10:04crashing violently inside my stomach so i would feel every agonizing second of the flames the pain was
10:09unbearable i knew she was doing it on purpose but i was completely powerless to suppress her you
10:14whore you took advantage of my death to steal ethereum hoarding everything that belonged to me
10:21today i'm going to make you pay it back tenfold lyra screamed as she punched and kicked my insides
10:26cold sweat poured down my face as my bloody hands gripped the red hot iron bars so hard the metal
10:31war
10:31stop struggling just enjoy the ride her phantom hand reaching up to squeeze my heart right as my
10:38vision went black from lack of oxygen she'd let go only to do it again and again treating my torture
10:43like a morbid game just as the pain reached a breaking a brilliant golden light erupted from my
10:47chest strange ethereal threads extended from my body surging with an unfamiliar chaotic divine power
10:53that nearly blew the iron cage apart in the royal bedroom ethereum had just hugged my pillow preparing to
10:58sleep when his heart only started racing seraphina the guards just reported that the lady is still
11:05resting my lord it's almost midnight why not check on her tomorrow a night of sleep might be exactly
11:11what she needs to see reason ethereum nodded slowly and lay back back down by the river of fire
11:19my handmade iris dropped to her knees in front of my cage sobbing uncontrollably my lady who did this to
11:26you when my divine power leaked she sensed it and used the cloaking spell i had taught her to sneak
11:32into the dungeons i was too weak to even open my eyes i only recognized her by her voice unable
11:38to
11:38speak i gathered enough strength to trace letters in the ash on the floor she pulled out the ones i
11:42hadn't finished 12 stalks in total ignoring my scorched bleeding throat i swallowed them all at once
11:4812 starlight blooms will only buy you two hours of power what will you do after that i offered her
11:53a
11:53weak blood-stained smile two hours that was more than enough time to fly to the heavenly realm and
11:59force a miscarriage the temporary surge of divine power gave me the strength to suppress lyra and
12:03heal the superficial burns covering my body i blasted my way out of the abyss of shadows and shot upward
12:08hurtling straight towards the heavenly realm half an hour later the magical ring on my finger vibrated
12:13ethereum's voice echoed in my mind seraphina where are you come back i made the honey glazed figs it was
12:19an
12:19artifact we forged together when we married allowing us to communicate across realms i ignored him
12:24pushing myself to fly faster seraphina stop hiding from me my patience is wearing thin
12:31then i heard the blood-glading screams of the two guards through the connection deep in the abyss of
12:35shadows ethereum stood before the molten cage his face twisted into a mask of pure terror and rage
12:40his suffocating divine arama crushed the soldiers to the floor the cage had been scrubbed clean completely
12:45devoid of my presence but it was too clean that was what made him suspicious he had sentenced a
12:51heavenly aura here last night why was it completely gone now the lady just vanished out of nowhere
12:55my lord we swear we had nothing to do with it find her the entire abyss was turned upside down
13:02the river
13:03of fire raged torturing the damned souls within and the underheld echoed with screams of agony where is
13:09she how can there be no trace of her ethereum was losing his mind his eyes bloodshot from days without
13:15sleep the ring pulsed wildly with his calls hardening my heart i ripped the ring from my finger and
13:20hurled it into the void below finally severing his hold on me just before my divine power ran dry i
13:25breached the heavenly gates before my feet could even touch the ground a massive bolt of heavenly
13:30lightning struck down from the sky i channeled the very last remnants of the starlight room's power to
13:35brace myself but the impact sent me crashing to the floor coughing up blood when i tried to push myself
13:40up i realized my body was completely empty i had no divine power left freed from my suppression lila
13:48began screaming from inside my womb you crazy what are you doing if you want to die don't drag me
13:53down
13:53with you go back the second bolt of lightning tore through the sky my war god armor manifest shielding me
14:00from the catastrophic blow lila instantly stopped screaming the armor shattered the backlash searing my
14:05flesh and heavily wounding her soul inside me but it wasn't enough i wanted her dead down in the
14:10underworld ethereum heard the thunder claps and finally realized what was happening i was being
14:15judged by the heavenly tribulation pain ripped through his chest as he shot toward the heavens as
14:20the third and deadliest bolt of lightning descended he arrived just in time to intercept half of the blast
14:25even though he absorbed most of it i had nothing left to defend myself i collapsed my abdomen erupting in
14:31blinding agony seraphina are you insane but a split second before he reached me lyra tore her way
14:38out of my body ethereum save me this bitch tried to kill me with the lightning but she looked nothing
14:45like the majestic portraits atherum kept hidden in his study half of her face was mangled by horrific burn
14:52scars devoid of any war goddess glory the lightning damage and the premature birth had rumened her
14:58she glared at me with pure venom stumbling forward with her hands outstretched trying to strangle me
15:05i threw my hand up to push her away with her weakened state she flew backward like a paper doll
15:11crashing directly into ethereum's arms ethereum i just wanted to help her up and she tried to push me
15:18off the edge of the realm ethereum raised his hand and struck me hard across the face the slap echoed
15:25like
15:25gunshot seraphina you heartless monster you tried to use the heavenly lightning to execute lyra leaving
15:32her disfigured and premature for 300 years i treated you like a queen i merely borrow your womb i never
15:38intended to harm you how could you be this vicious i couldn't speak i just stared at him my face
15:45is ruined
15:47i'd rather be dead than live like this just kill me
15:54no no i have a way to fix you just trust me what way flaying the skin off my face
15:59and grafting it onto
16:00hers i spat out another mouthful of blood i didn't have the energy to argue anymore i didn't even want
16:06to lyra was the one trying to kill me but the moment she played the victim he believed her without
16:12a second
16:13thought i was lying there in a pool of my own blood my armor shattered to pieces yet all he
16:19saw was her
16:20i looked down at my broken body the humiliation of being exiled from the heavenly realm years ago
16:26washing over me anew a sphere of fire ignited in ethereum's palm ready to strike me down but before
16:32he could cast it a blinding beam of white light shot from the distance i didn't see who cast it
16:37before
16:38the world went black i don't know how long i was out but i woke up in a massive sunlit
16:42bed i shifted
16:44my limbs the agonizing heaviness was gone the burns from the heavenly lightning had vanished without a
16:50trace but what truly shocked me was the power stirring deep within my soul it felt as though an
16:56ancient entity inside me was slowly opening its eyes the last thing i remembered was issyrian
17:02preparing to execute me why was i perfectly fine lying in this lavish palace i bolted upright in
17:08shock a man in flowing white robes wearing a crown of golden laurel leaves walked into the room
17:14seeing me awake his face lit up and he pulled me into a tight embrace seraphina you're finally awake
17:20does anything hurt i stared at him in bewilderment realizing my confusion he offered a fond indulgent
17:27smile and gently flicked my forehead a flood of memories that didn't belong to me crashed into my
17:33mind when i was expelled from the heavenly realm three centuries ago a single tear i left behind
17:38drifted to the steps of this very palace the domain of the primordial god orion the tear transformed into
17:44a tiny ethereal serpent made of light orion kept the little light snake as a pet over the last 300
17:50years
17:51bathed in the spiritual energy of a primordial god the serpent slowly took on my physical form
17:57orion had offered to reconstruct a proper physical body for her but she refused because a tyrian had
18:04cloaked my aura in the underworld orion couldn't locate me thank you for treating me with such care
18:11but i am not her i cannot stay here i tried to pull away he leaned in and kissed me
18:18fiercely the
18:19sensation was dizzying of the serpent's desperate longing and my own instinctive resistance i didn't
18:25know whether to push him away or kiss him back he kissed me until my mind went blank he suddenly
18:30froze
18:31he pulled back chest heaving i'm sorry i forgot you just gave birth your body is still recovering i
18:40rushed this focus on healing first i hastily pulled my robes up but a wave of profound gratitude washed over
18:47me unlike aetherian orion understood boundaries i was desperate to regain my strength so i could exact
18:53my revenge seeing my urgency orion literally extracted his own divine power and infused it into
18:59my veins he fed me countless celestive herbs within a week 30 to 40 percent of my original power had
19:06returned more importantly the dormant power of fate inside me was slowly awakening just as i was plotting
19:12my revenge on my ex-husband seravius the bastard delivered himself to my doorstep seraphina my
19:18beautiful fiance it was my father who forced me to take your septer that day there hasn't been a single
19:23day in the last 300 years that i haven't thought of you will you return to the heavenly realm and
19:28be my
19:28queen he put on a masterful display of remorse but my heart felt nothing but venomous hatred i knew
19:34exactly what had happened he stole the scepter of dawn to murder his own father and seize the throne
19:39no one forced him it was his choice he knew i was suffering in the underworld for three centuries
19:45yet he never once came looking for me he was only here because he sensed my power growing
19:51the scepter of dawn was reacting to its true master and he was losing control of it i was going
19:56to make
19:57him pay for the humiliation of my exile and the 300 years of torture in the underworld today even if
20:03it
20:03cost me my life i would have my revenge gripping the starforged sword orion had given me i charged
20:09cerevis stood his ground a sickeningly arrogant smirk playing on his lips he knew my body was still
20:14weak and i didn't have the seppler his little apology speech was just a formality he wanted to
20:18coax me back without a fight so he could torture me behind closed doors during the clash he tactically
20:23forced me backward driving us down toward the mortal realm the mortal world had no divine oversight
20:30with his countless legions killing me quietly down there with child's play just as cerevis moved in
20:37for the kill a blinding golden light struck the earth orion materialized out of thin air throwing
20:43a protective arm in front of me seraphina leave this filth to me don't dirty your hands his divine
20:50arama erupted like a tidal ray even as the heavenly god king wielding two elemental stepsels seravius could
20:58barely hold his ground against the primordial god taking advantage of the distraction i closed my eyes
21:04reaching out with the threads of my returning power to summon the seppler of dawn from within
21:08seravius's chest seravius gasped cluffing his heart as he frantically tried to repress the weapon
21:15but it was useless the scepter ripped its way out of his chest and flew into my waiting hand
21:20radiating a familiar scorching warmth the moment my fingers closed around the hilt an explosive
21:26shockwave of light leveled the battlefield it was singing for me so what if you're the god king
21:32you touch my woman you pay the ultimate price with a mere flick of his finger orion yanked the second
21:38artifact the scepter of thunder straight out of seravius's body it floated in the air humming with
21:44trapped lightning your woman seravius choked out his eyes wide with horror as his body ill involuntarily
21:51dropped to its knees she is my fiance before he could finish his divine form shattered reverting to his
21:57true pathetic shape a plucked golden crow you murdered your wife and slaughtered your father
22:02you deserve worse than death with a sweeping gesture he swatted the miserable bird over the edge of the
22:08bottomless abyss serafina let's go home the apples in the sanctuary orchard are ripe i'll pick the
22:14sweetest ones for you he pulled me into his arms gazing at me with overwhelming tenness i was moved
22:21by how fiercely he protected me but my body still instinctively tent i wasn't used to this kind of
22:26intimacy in the brief moment i had summoned the septal i caught orion glancing at me from the corner of
22:32his
22:32eye it was a dark complicated look one i couldn't quite decipher but regardless he had just
22:38eradicated seravius he had helped me extract my revenge i cast one last look towards the heavenly
22:44realm a silent goodbye to my past that night back in orion's sanctuary my sleeves plagued by violent
22:51nightmares it started peacefully my clan dancing and singing around a bonfire then the world warped
22:58into hell severed limbs and fountains of blood flooded my vision sister save me auntie it hurts
23:05the screams of my family tore through my skull i shot up in bed screaming drenched in a cold sweat
23:10a familiar voice broke through the panic my lady don't be afraid it's just a nightmare i blinked
23:16against the darknesses it was iris how did you get to the sanctuary ethrian actually let you leave her
23:23eyes were red her voice thick with tears i missed you so much my lady i begged the lord on
23:28my knees to let
23:29me go when he heard i was coming to find you he didn't stop me she gently wiped the sweat
23:34from my
23:35forehead and offered me a cup of hot tea carefully bringing it to my lips just as the rim touched
23:40my
23:40mouth a memory sparked in my mind by the way when my uncle was injured by the hydra i heard
23:46you took
23:46care of him for three years before he recovered i saw him in my dream just now he said he
23:52misses you iris
23:53froze a flicker of panic crossed her eyes before she nodded vigorously i miss him every day too if
24:00saravis hadn't been so cruel and banished our people i could go back and see him right now i
24:05stared into her eyes they were beautiful but entirely devoid of life i backhanded the cup
24:10splashing the scalding tea directly into her face my uncle was killed instantly by the titan gods
24:16you never took care of him for three years you're not iris as the enchanted tea burned her skin thick
24:24green smoke vollowed from her face when the smoke cleared it revealed lyra's grotesquely scarred visilage
24:31she threw her head back and cackled iris has been dead for weeks the moment she helped you escape
24:38i threw her into the abyss of shadows a pathetic little handmaid she couldn't even survive the lightest
24:45torture i flag her alive she died screaming it's a shame you saw through my disguise i was going to
24:51trick you into coming back to the underworld to butcher you properly you pathetic bitch i really
24:57underestimated you rage and grief blinded me my hands shook violently iris had only survived the
25:04heavenly realms purge because she had sneaked down to the mental world to play ethrian had moved
25:09mountains to find her and bring her to me she was the very last of my bloodline unleashing my
25:14full divine power i seized lyra by the throat and dragged her out towards the sanctuary's judgment
