Chloe | Letter 12 — I have never felt something so… powerful.
My heart swells at the enormous determination on Valen’s face.
My boy.
I knew he would come, but I didn’t.
I don’t think the bond is with me but rather the twins. I think they must have summoned my Valen. The gods be thanked.
I have never felt something so… powerful. And I… I am powerful.
Could this not have happened a century ago? When I was slightly less old. Shut it. You have experience, old man. Use it!
I never doubt myself. And I shan’t begin now.
I may have to show them what I can do. That would change…everything.
— Dr V
Quiet as a mouse.
The twins shouldn’t have to go through this. Why, after everything I went through, am I allowing the same thing to happen to these two?
Not now, Chloe
The spell is failing. Too many of them pound on it. Viktor’s face tells the story.
They are everywhere, and the stench is unbearable.
My heart swells at the enormous determination on Valen’s face. Yes… one day… we will have children.
I fear we have one choice.
We run!
— C
