Chapter 63: Korrin’s Dumb Idea Saves the Day

Korrin was bored.

Which was dangerous.

"I have an idea," he announced.

"No," Thessaly said immediately.

"I haven't said it yet!"

"No," Elyse repeated.

"I think I can turn the void fragments into… music."

Everyone stared.

Naia blinked. "Wait, that's actually kinda cool."

Liss tilted her head.

"If you do it wrong, you might accidentally compose a new god."

Korrin grinned.

"What's life without risk?"

They watched him spend four hours playing memory-infused fragments like instruments.

He accidentally summoned a sentient flute that screamed when blown.

They named it Bob.

Bob became their pet.

And for the first time since the war began—

They laughed until they cried.
