The morning sun broke through the dark clouds, casting a golden glow over the land as Anita and Jace stood together in the quiet aftermath. The room around them was still and empty, the remnants of the battle fading into the air like dust. Jace’s chest rose and fell steadily, the bead now a part of him once more but no longer a source of pain. His expression, though weary, was one of peace. He was free—truly free. 


Anita stood beside him, her gaze never leaving his face. She had seen the struggle in his eyes, the torment, the doubt, but now she saw something different: strength. His fight had not only been against Narek, but against the very bond that had defined his life for so long. And now, he had won. 


"Are you okay?" Anita’s voice was soft, hesitant. She still couldn’t fully grasp the depth of what Jace had just gone through. It was more than a battle against an enemy—it was a battle for his own identity, for his own soul.
