Lucan felt the air grow impossibly cold as Bing prepared to unleash another wave of her ice magic, her enormous maw opening wide, the breath inside her lungs shimmering with deadly frost. He knew he couldn't dodge this time—the attack was too vast, too powerful. He needed to act quickly.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand and summoned the Eclipse Veil.
A barrier of pure darkness enveloped him, a swirling dome of shadow that seemed to swallow the light around it. The instant the veil solidified, Bing released her devastating attack. An overwhelming torrent of ice shot forward, crashing into the barrier with a deafening roar. The sheer force of it shook the ground, sending shards of frozen debris flying in all directions.
Hey there!
I wanted to let you in on something—I’ve got two potential endings for the novel:
1. Option One: After the final battle, boom, novel ends. Curtain call, thank you, and good night.
2. Option Two: After the final battle, the story keeps rolling to explore some of the loose threads and hints I've already sprinkled throughout.
I’m not dragging things out or throwing in random plot twists. These are things already hinted at earlier, so it would just be continuing that momentum.
So here’s where you come in—what do you think? Which ending would you prefer? If you go with Option One, we wrap up the novel this month. If you go with Option Two, we’ll have a little more fun, and the novel will probably finish next month.
Let me know!
