Kapitel 100: One Hundredth

She felt a cold twist in her stomach.

A pit of dread that seemed to grow more and more with every passing moment.

Like...a black hole of fear and dread.

Merwyn stared down dispassionately at the throne. There was no mirth in his gaze, but neither was there any rage or irritation.
