Second Temple

I left the Flame Plane with new scars...
and a Blessing in my chest.

Daisy stepped us through to a basalt platform above an ocean without shores. The Tide Plane. My Flame dimmed to a coal the moment the cold hit. The destroyed outpost ahead said the Asuric had been here first.

Shira's Flame blood ran half speed. My ribs were still stitched. My forearm burn was still healing.

And somewhere in the reef below, Maren, the Tide Temple's first priestess, was alone, hunted, and running out of time.

I'm a stonemason. My Flame instinct is to push.
The Tide answers nothing that pushes.

To take this Temple back, and lift the next thread of Priala's sealing, I'm going to have to learn a new Blessing in a domain my hands don't fit, then weave fire and water together for the first time in four hundred years.

Good thing I'm patient when the work calls for it.
