My fingers tremble against the cold stone floor, not from fear—but rage. I know this room. The silver sigils carved into the walls, the scent of burnt rosemary… this is the night they came for me. Ten years old. Helpless. Screaming as the flames licked my skin.

But I’m not helpless now.

I raise my hand, and the air shimmers with golden runes. Time stutters. The door creaks open—just like before—but this time, I see the assassin’s eyes. Not a stranger. Lord Dain, smiling as he pours oil around my bed.

He doesn’t notice the glow. Doesn’t hear my breath.

I have seconds. Do I stop him now and risk unraveling everything? Do I let the scene play out and preserve my secret? Or do I burn him first—and become the monster they always said I was?
