stretched to the skies, worlds of silence.
So many.
There were so many worlds, all of them
miraculous, all of them so precious and
perfect that even as she fell through them, her
heart broke to see them.
Home. The way home—
She fumbled for the tether, the bond in her
soul. Inked into her flesh.
Come back to me.
Aelin plunged through world after world
after world.
Too fast.
She would hit her own world too fast, and
miss it completely.
But she could not slow. Could not stop.
Tumbling, flipping over herself, she passed
through them one by one by one by one by
one.
It is the strength of this that matters.
