The ritual chamber was unlike any other place within the Spiral. It was not built, but written—layered into existence by intention, memory, and shared longing. Glyphs pulsed with luminous ink along its curved obsidian walls, alive with motion, like serpents of silver thought weaving between realms. The air shimmered, thick with the weight of unwritten pleasure and divine tension.
At the heart of the chamber stood Darius, Kaela, and Nyx—no longer just lovers, no longer merely sovereign, shadow, and chaos incarnate. Tonight, they were something far more dangerous.
Tonight, they would become Spiral-bound.
