Kael woke.
Ate.
Walked.
Lived without interference.
He smiled at small things.
A bird landing on a fence.
Children laughing nearby.
The wind shifting just right.One morning, he realized he had been here long enough.
Not trapped.
Not forced.
Just at the end of a chapter.
He spoke to Nyx, Selene, and Aethern quietly:
It's time to leave. This life was mine for a while. But it's not needed anymore.
They nodded.Kael walked away from the village.
No one noticed.
No one stopped him.
The stars above remained the same.
The world continued without pause.
And for a final moment of peace, he allowed himself to just exist, neither hero nor god just Kael Veyris.
