With the Originats handling business as they should, a few eyes had started watching them—two in particular focused on Nia's battle.
Seraphiel and Aeloris had already torn through the Eternal Spire, cutting down twenty leaders and lesser progenitors with effortless, devastating precision.
Blades flashed, power rippled through the air, and their enemies fell one after another, unable to mount even the faintest resistance. When Lady Truth and The Eternal Deceiver claimed sixteen, it left ten each for them to finish without breaking a sweat.
Afterward, Seraphiel intended to deal with Absence too, but he was already gone long before they were done.
Nyx had given him a single mission, and once it was completed, he considered his role finished. The table was set for the Tyrannus Clan, and so he withdrew, waiting until he was called upon again.
Her gaze lingered on all the Originats, but especially on Nia.
