Shattered soul
Sage stood in front of the mirror, solemnly staring at herself. Her emerald eyes were dull and slowly glowed into the fiery form.
Her mind was overflowing.
On the one hand, she had Cyrus, who was in his dark state and would kill her without hesitation on his birthday. She was willing to go to any length to convince him that he loved her, despite the fact that he had recently confused her. Giving her passionate kisses she would never forget, kisses that always felt like the first time he had ever crashed his lips on hers.
She couldn't understand him, despite her best efforts.
On the other hand, she had statkus mages who wanted her fire core for obvious reasons.
She also needed to track down Credia mages and discover what Katherine had been up to during their time apart.
Sage sighed deeply, unable to think any longer. She was lonely and felt bad for Darren, whom she couldn't trust.
