Summary:
⚠︎ ⚠︎ ⚠︎
SPOILERS FOR "EMPIRE OF THE DAMNED" (but no spoilers for "Empire of the Dawn")
De Coste took a deep breath before remembering, once again, there was no need for it anymore. He nodded slow and shifted his foot, finally letting Ashdrinker go. ‘Are you certain?’ The coldblood looked sidelong at his oldest friend. He took in the tensed muscles in his jaw and the fire burning in his grey eyes as he stared stubbornly ahead, desperately avoiding his gaze. ‘I can feel it, Gabe,’ he said quietly. ‘Celene can, too.’
The daysdeath has been ended - and along it, the curse of the vampires. No coldblood will live to see the first dawn. But the prophecy that foretold the end to the nightmare might also hide the secret of atonement for the Dead.
Which is something Aaron de Coste's found famille would truly appreciate.
