Recap – Chapter 69: The Fire We Carry
Haunted by the vision of a flaming crown at Halveron's heart, Kai absorbed a searing memory-flood in the ruins below—images of his past, veiled in betrayal and ancient magic. Escaping with his allies, he ignited power within himself that both terrified and empowered him. Shadows murmured secrets, threatening to consume his mind.
