Third-person POV
Electra's mind would not settle. Different thoughts circled her mind one after the other, overlapping until none of them felt solid enough to hold, and every answer her grandfather had given her seemed to create new gaps instead of filling the old ones.
The balance between her human and phoenix halves, the fractured sigil, and Seraphina's life being tied to her own. It was too much to carry all at once, and she quickly understood that if she kept digging through every detail, she would only sink deeper into confusion. There were too many moving parts, too many things she did not remember, and too many consequences tied to memories she did not possess.
So she forced herself to step back from it mentally because not everything needed to be solved at once, but one part refused to quiet.
