Eclipse of Fate ✨

Into the Void

A heavy silence settled between them.

Nyx clenched his fists, his body trembling. "That thing... It took everything."

Lucien exhaled, glancing at his empty hand. The weight of Solis, the blade he had wielded his entire life, was gone.

And yet-

He looked at Nyx. "You're still standing."

Nyx frowned. "What?"

Lucien crossed his arms. "You said it yourself. The shadow was your power. It took Tenebris, but not you."

Nyx's eyes widened. He flexed his fingers, and to his shock-his dark energy was still there.

The shadow may have been torn from him, but the power... the abyss was still in his veins.

Nyx chuckled, shaking his head. "Guess I'm not so useless after all."

Lucien smirked. "Took you long enough to figure that out."

A silence fell between them, but this time, it wasn't tense. It was... familiar.

Lucien turned toward the broken horizon. "You remember when we were kids?"

Nyx scoffed. "That's a dumb question."

Lucien chuckled. "We always fought back then too. But it was different. We had something to protect."

Nyx's smirk faded. "And now?"

Lucien's eyes darkened. "Now, we have something to end."

Nyx exhaled, rolling his shoulders. "Guess there's no running from this."

Lucien nodded. "We have to go into the void. Find that thing. End it."

Nyx cracked his knuckles. "And take back what's ours."

They both turned toward the abyss-a swirling mass of endless darkness, the entrance to a place beyond mortal understanding.

For the first time in years...

They were fighting together.

And in the void, waiting for them, was a being unlike anything they had ever faced before.

The Master of Energies.
