Capítulo 309: Gifts

The familiar object before her caused a shudder through her body. She remembered the horror and excitement she felt when she had first been presented one of these items. A mysterious woman with dark hair told her the crystal would change her life, all she had to do was touch it.

Verona remembered what the first crystal had shown her all those years ago. She saw a world bathed in fire with corpses strewn about haphazardly. The source of the destruction seemed to be an ever-present flame that burned brilliant gold. Though in its wake, it left destruction, something about the world it left behind felt… pure.

The fire consumed all, leaving behind a blank slate on which a new world could be built. Something about this struck a chord deep within her. As someone who had been oppressed due to her birth circumstances, witnessing the world being consumed felt like a form of vindication for all her struggles.
