Against instinct and ancient law, she joined his party, drawn not by prophecy but by trust. Battles were fought, victories were earned, and somewhere between shared bloodshed and quiet nights beneath open skies, Vaelora placed her faith — and eventually her heart — in him. It was a devotion given once, and without reserve.

What happened next depends on who you ask. Some say Himmel betrayed her. Others whisper that the party was torn apart by a decision t
