Chapter 673: The Moment Before Everything Changed
"I must leave now," Selene said finally.
Orion watched her quietly.
"Time has already elapsed," Selene continued softly. "I have done what I came here to do."
"And now," she added, "the rest is up to you and Sophia."
Orion did not answer immediately.
He was tired.
Not simply physically tired, though he certainly was that too, but exhausted in a way that settled deep beneath his skin after speaking to the goddess for this long. Every answer she gave seemed to create three more questions, and every truth uncovered only made the past look worse than before.

Selene's eyes returned to him.
"I will tell you the same thing I told Sophia," she said calmly. "If you need me, you may come to me."
Orion raised a brow faintly.
"That sounds suspiciously generous coming from you."
Selene ignored the comment completely.
