Chapter 59 The Moonborne Duel

• It wasn’t just a seat of power — it was sentient, now bound to centuries of bloodline echoes, corrupted roots, and Hollow whispers. And it watched as Lucy Hamilton, born of Moonclaw, heir to fire and fang, stepped into the chamber like a judgment summoned by destiny itself.
• Draeven rose from the throne as though peeled from it, his body creaking with the sound of bark and bone. His crown of thorns burned dimly above his head, and his eyes — once wolf, now something else — glowed with molten certainty.
