The Rise Of The Moon goddess

Athena's POV

I stood at the heart of the ruin (where the former King and Kieran had fought) , surrounded by ash, broken stone, and the bones of a kingdom that had nearly slipped from my grasp. The air still pulsed with the echo of old magic,.fractured, bruised, but not dead.

Not yet.

Not while I still breathed.

The Moon Temple loomed behind me, its once-pristine walls scorched and cracked. The throne where the Binded King now sat in eternal chains pulsed faintly, his life force siphoned to fuel the protective wards I had woven into the marrow of the realm. A fitting prison. A fitting warning.

But a broken temple would not hold a kingdom.

It was time to rebuild.
