The world outside still held dangers, and Thorne was a threat that would likely linger, but for now, here, in this sacred place, the Obsidian Bloodline’s power was safe. My own fear of inadequacy had faded, replaced by a quiet determination. The exploration of my heritage had just begun, and I was ready.
