Chapter 353

• I wanted to protect them from the whole world but life didn’t work that way. I still hadn’t told anyone about the woman’s threat and as time passed and nothing else happened, I didn’t worry about it anymore.
• It started to feel like I’d imagined the whole thing or maybe even dreamed it up. I wrote it off as paranoia and I felt like I was indestructible. My magic was powerful and now that the enchantment was broken, nothing could touch me.
• That night when I fell asleep, the dreams started. It felt and looked like Helheim, but I knew that it wasn’t the same place. The darkness would give way to soft light as I heard the chanting of witches and I saw them walking through the forest until they reached the clearing.
