♫Let It Burn—Generdyn, Ruth Simard♫
ECLIPSE
Violet was not allowed to enter the banquet room of course. When the princess realized that her sister's fate was the same thing that awaited her, she slumped her shoulders in resignation while Kael had guards escort her away.
Meanwhile, Violet's last words stayed with Eclipse who was ushered into what was a rather silent room.
Shadow Star.
The words repeated itself like a sacrificial chant in her head as she walked the long steps to where Malric waited in the middle of the room with everyone's attention solely on him.
And because his eyes were on her like she was the center of his universe, all eyes consequently fell on her.
Something about the loud hush in the room made it seem like she was walking into a raptured conversation. Like strained words had been exchanged, the shadows left behind for her to behold.
"Your Majesty." She curtsied when she reached him.
His eyes swept to her.
Golden. Scorching. Obliterating.
