The question hung in the air like a blade.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmbswVdxQL
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuqFg2kStX
Cel's breath stopped.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yGzJeV1vo
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCes5WM1D9X
His mind went blank - then exploded.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEPX4IW2ed
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnMINdRvHn
She knew. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o4HgAdS7T
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc98emxuJI8
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. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYnZxLuDHp
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB8En52FGa
Hestia's weapon appeared instantly, intercepting his attack with a sharp ring of steel. Her eyes went wide - not with fear, but shock.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88blnyolcm
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxkzcsvaE1
Then they hardened.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspo1KuR6cd
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMuOFZgHSS
Her longsword redirected his blade with brutal efficiency. She spun away, creating distance, settling into a combat stance.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOG6b2L9Uw
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjJhxKoRJN
Cel pressed forward, each strike powered by the full weight of his divinely enhanced strength. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRFF7scd4K
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnluXGAZ660
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ32esvtG7l
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUBjkdbzhG
She'd never felt this from him before. The true weight behind his attacks.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgWpF4GArs
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0pfjEfKiK
Her crimson eyes blazed with focus as she adjusted her stance, blade rising to meet his next strike.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sVEyoRv1K
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBfIFbd2u1
He came at her like a beast - wild, uncontrolled, full of openings any skilled fighter could exploit.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCUCHn1F0D
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgmuNRNQac
But the sheer power behind each blow made exploitation impossible.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAeA12DMLy
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuallsfziPJ
Hestia deflected a horizontal slash and pivoted, attempting to circle into his blind spot. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i1bG9XCbb
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpUHbghmxS
Cel turned with her instantly. Silent Moon traced patterns meant to overwhelm through pure aggression, each strike flowing into the next without losing pace.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsd07V7UfK
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTC88duwWD
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGg8AQ6UAi
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2key2xXu4
Still, she was losing ground.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ73CXQJ2b4
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnajZCCTf1
Each deflection cost her. Each redirection pushed her closer to the edge of her capabilities. Against anyone else, her skill would have been enough.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nqd0wpeOn
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNlTlsOw2o
But against this - against the full weight of a divinely forged body with nothing held back - it wasn't.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfGCN8Mnqi
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPmKLVdBDt
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7QeH8BxE0
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8QKqc9U4C
Cel's boot lashed out, catching her in the ribs.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvrRoNNBhK
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOUSCXwcPW
The kick sent her sprawling. She crashed into the dirt, gasping, vision blurring.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0odfMVC26O
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGJvcTHMfj
Silent Moon descended in an arc.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5CoSYgnm6
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScMfHTLgtk
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. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33LvA8cuwA
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPA719b7MVC
She spun inside his guard, blade rising toward his exposed side—82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3W9xL9rWKy
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC5uh6VnbO
His hand shot out.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡassA9yD1io
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSt9wcKPBxC
Fingers closed on her wrist, already blooming with frost. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeBWFfy550
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn74bYr6PY
The world shattered.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeXxpqysj8
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJn1M5B9eD
A boy lay broken on ash-covered ground.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK9QPgrWKh
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPXO8JL9fd
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHkZBAOjL6
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sVOvPPbFs
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvaCcl3T9b
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1B35eRrAh
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. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZ03OizlCy
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEek5iOK4oO
Then went still. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNIO71SKrn
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgosvUTV9J
Death came quietly in that desolate place. Without ceremony. Without witness. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rBC3jD2cl
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ez389Bh0L
Just a broken body bleeding into ash. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5Shs8YgJh
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZPiaDHhnI
The vision released them.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XwRc4BA3b
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpJtmqnnYf
Cel staggered backward, hand falling away from Hestia's wrist. His breathing came harsh and rapid, mind reeling from what he'd just witnessed.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvKXSdkZfi
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXedqqfLFYj
‘That… was me.’82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYpWQ6TMSa
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHVqnlhenO
His death in the Ashlands. The moment after the creature had torn him apart. Before the trial. Before resurrection.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh4uACm0T2
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkcJeHynjf
But how—why—82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxFDKFLmGO
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRJxVzQFW2
Hestia stood motionless, eyes wide and uncomprehending. Her blade trembled in her grip. She stared at Cel like she'd never seen him before.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkVecXT2Si
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8S7udoG2V
Then her expression shifted.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkx4K6ttWCE
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7Zi7HxgyV
Horror gave way to something colder. Harder.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEANQCWwtn
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDUWZYrZdA
Her longsword came up, the crimson blade catching moonlight.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEER41qOeUH
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxD0Jhkh8m
"Vile Demon."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69XgUsjyA5
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacARx8hpOO
The word fell between them like a stone.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgwehCoilu
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1ApGg7nDe
Cel's grip tightened on Silent Moon. His mind still churned with confusion.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡot0acByKs9
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsAxxwOXcd
But it didn't matter.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AY39CvsWj
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhYcJI6enU
She knew something. Had seen something.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEJ11x3OMn
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQ2KvK5HWH
And she had to die for it.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jkzC7CWXh
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBIqbVFSAb
He moved.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZor4qs3Hf
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ks8obA4GW
Hestia met him without hesitation.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cIUPLS0ti
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIbk3sunJU
Her blade moved with lethal precision, each movement flowing seamlessly into the next.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPfeZtTlYz
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOX9W6RFuz
Cel barely managed to raise Silent Moon in time.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUKsR9QQ5J
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsGKhZLOKd
Her blade came in low, then high, then from an angle that should have been impossible. A three-strike combination executed in rapid succession. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZQWqpg0Da
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwl0dj2uPY
Cel deflected the first two through pure instinct. The third slipped past his guard and opened a line across his shoulder.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4nxWc7syN
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRo5ijbAGQ
Blood welled up, dark against his skin.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYRC4JyqDX
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroAxQqHVuK
Hestia pressed forward with renewed aggression, certainty burning cold in her eyes.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwunA3SJIJ
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj50d6ubJIm
Cel's blade caught hers in a bind, forcing them face to face for a heartbeat.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKiI0SuirD
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnJBU6g7uT
Then she broke free with a twist that nearly tore Silent Moon from his grip. Her follow-up strike came for his throat—82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnzPiaAXPG
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxIkFWMh8i
Cel threw himself sideways, the blade missing by inches.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ11Tbo5r3
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMO8Hkmj9lj
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. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb682OEJf7v
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyj1oAxuTP
Neither spoke.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQLRZ3H1MD
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1rRbEnvgn
Just two people trying to kill each other beneath the indifferent moon.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTyeSERljC
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XA8OFHyJn
Cel moved first this time.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIjMWGGyeo
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme1jC6bbN3
Raw strength met perfect technique in a clash that sent tremors through the training ground.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn5Sf8547v
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9a51W6aWu
Hestia's blade wove patterns meant exploit openings. Cel's strikes tried to overwhelm through sheer force.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZkLmz2kyL
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifC5ev1Ps0
The gap between them had closed. Not in skill or strength - that remained as vast as ever - but in intent. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4W56fsBrBH
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMAA1urBoV
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrC2R9yKczX
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3XZd8IQhv
Hestia read the feint. Her longsword came up not to deflect but to counter - blade aimed at the exposed flesh of his neck. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdohoDAZrF
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W5VaUGtHf
Silent Moon's edge found fabric at her chest. Her crimson blade touched skin at his throat.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvIOmhditH
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLJ0xS52xT
Lightning struck between them.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10JN5EzhG7
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXuDeVMeH8
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiLgALFjQb
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWOEpwHo2s
Cel hit the earth hard enough to crater it. His bones rattled. His ears rang. Silent Moon skittered away across packed dirt.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDj6VWjPgp
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ525m9PXLE1
Through blurred vision, he saw Hestia sprawled several steps away, her weapon fallen from nerveless fingers.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp05BSC0Y08
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9N6brFGMn
A figure stood in the smoking crater where the lightning had struck.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEO1pbaNLq
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7GroKc0od
Esrin.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78tCndpOTu
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXaQdtjyMe
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATEfz1oNU0
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpa6KEXEyX
"What do you think you're doing?" Esrin's voice cut through the ringing in Cel's ears like a blade. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrQsCpxgxG
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQRcGvJRxR
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. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWkAhUMCJt
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOVm09mIL3
"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." 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDWXMgiTHj
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE59WAJVPGg
The certainty in her tone left no room for doubt. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilP2BWUuIr
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSQ4BoaYfs
Esrin's expression didn't shift. "You're wrong."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDBsaIWsrm
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtiD2APHaT
Hestia's composure cracked slightly.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrUrMnNqxe
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOBJ7KKssV
"I can assure you - he is human."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrKi8ag8pj
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC2pjgeuce
"Lady Esrin, I assure you, my trait—" Hestia began, urgency creeping into her measured tone.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjDppYiyXe
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3e4EG0NCu
"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."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUU2W7qbDu
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpnni9jDCA
Hestia went very still.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZd1SO9hzl
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVVTrILbPk
"Return to your dormitory," Esrin continued. "And reflect on what you did."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIQ6FtSPgl
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDAbpKPaTC
For a long moment, Hestia didn't move. Her crimson eyes remained fixed on Cel, searching for something - truth, deception, confirmation of her fears. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbLWoaAPHM
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAStD0kBJhB
Then she dismissed her artifact into darkness and gave Esrin a deep, formal bow. "As you command, Lady Esrin." 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnTkQsEuQH
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza0uffUphc
Without another word, she turned and walked away, her steps steady despite the violence that had just occurred. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4dZ21rOJe
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZlkkO3X8p
Cel watched her go, chest tight with emotions he couldn't name. Relief. Confusion. Residual fear.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYnv5DDzPZ
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwk06CR4I8
When she disappeared around a corner, Esrin's attention shifted to him fully.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5c5tSKRW2F
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YiE8RV9wm
The weight of her gaze made him want to step backward.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaFkkWWcFQ
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrPKag0jY0
"As for you…"82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjkIeTFyjJ
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7SzxTQ8Qz
Cel's throat worked. "I—"82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gP8ioDMtZ
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThhrMsogq6
"Your task was to observe. To protect the other students if necessary." Her ruby eyes narrowed. "Not to fight them."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyLOsaMxP2
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9u3t7r3QU
"It just happened," Cel said. The excuse sounded weak even to his own ears. "I didn't mean—"82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzcfWTRdoV
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40aYarqfI1
"You didn't mean to attack her with lethal intent?" Esrin's tone could have frozen water. "Because that's what I witnessed."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A5YrsbI9z
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwgcipjlGE
Cel's hands curled into fists at his sides. He forced them to relax.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTG4WprzFY
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABGfdtbfjD
"I'm sorry." The words came quiet. Genuine. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9RPeQwCDb
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZldeeiOQ2
"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?" 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4FkdHfITT
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwazahDzEym
Cel's breath caught. "Yes." 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FzJ75D6TX
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpAntsTUON
Esrin studied him for a long moment, expression unreadable.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyrXjGGXml
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoHDiec7yx
Then she sighed - a sound so subtle he almost missed it. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lixgeKfAX
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjb76Q2eWza
Cel’s gaze drifted toward where Hestia had disappeared.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6VgSPtw7y
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJmAiGk7hw
"What did she mean?" he asked. "About demons. What are they?" 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmQUcMHNRm
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71w973HsQp
Esrin opened her mouth to answer— 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7urYXRGTgm
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkx8LcF6w1
Then her head snapped sideways. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCkIWm8HIN
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2h2s45dTE
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30LkhpXt5T
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EHUS0kFzW
"What—"82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eg8EJXcAy
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PGt2YtxlZ
A bell tolled.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIMZg4gfyN
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyF9MnW5n1G
Deep. Resonant. The sound rolled across the Academy grounds from somewhere in the city.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7t1ZuMnXrG
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3PGpwuhD9
Once. Twice. Three times.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFactgqJdT
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX67crbVg9J
Cel's brow furrowed. "What is that?"82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhna4vfslL
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdg7D59EPL
"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."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuHEpDNTzw
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE24exJsh6J
"What opportun—" 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r9dtF70KY
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62t03nJ3S7
Then the world lurched.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Grkybaqos
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrH1kZJWFt
Wind screamed past his ears. The training ground was gone - replaced by open sky stretching in every direction. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAYeMVu29O
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdqoAuMGm7
Esrin held him like a cat - one hand gripping his collar, his entire body dangling uselessly in her grasp.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G3unNnWQv
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLEE3USaEY
Terror flooded through him in cold waves.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QtWyLKhI4
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3USBXNql7
'Too high too high too high—'82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtdl4jnioE
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bfOrD5Zk5
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.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsWqSnc6Kk
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbejxhmdyOb
Esrin ignored him completely. Her ruby eyes scanned the landscape ahead with clinical precision, tracking something he couldn't see.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgBYnOivTH
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKsZ3z37mQ
"There."82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm4hLHu4E5
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡse9C1tY4Db
She banked sharply. Cel's body swung out from the momentum, gravity trying its best to claim him. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iR5pOXas7
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIb7wubjVg
He was going to die. Going to fall. Going to— 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHTaNbwL6Q
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2flPdiNvM
Impact. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXqDEh0s8A
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGKkA242B8
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. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQKQYXtObP
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAuYbEYkj3
Solid ground. Beautiful, wonderful, stable ground. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YNnyt37NI
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNLl0jLcLk
Slowly - so slowly - his breathing steadied. His vision stopped swimming. He pushed himself upright on shaking arms. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSXzNXBpyK
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4B75bkGXQ8
And froze. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJetDOGIuzF
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTcWPZS22A
Reality had split open ahead of him - a wound hanging in the air above empty ground. 82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE8M7e7RWV
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsmRzFA8yF
A rift.82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfMG1F3vBV
