Ren left Selphira's office with a head full of information he didn't know how to process, thoughts churning without finding resolution.
He no longer just wanted to recover the heart for Luna's peace of mind.
Now he wanted to rip Orion's head off slowly while explaining exactly why he was dying... And Dorian's... And Magnus's. Tear them apart piece by piece while they understood the full consequences of those choices they made years ago that had killed thousands.
That purple core summoning corruption… he was 99.999% certain Selphira was right on the money.
That deliberate betrayal committed while people who trusted Starweaver protection died in their homes.
Hundreds of civilians were killed because one man wanted to ruin his brother's reputation and claim power that didn't belong to him. Because jealousy and ambition mattered more than innocent lives that got crushed beneath their 'noble' games.
