  • Chapter 6The Final Battle She whirled around at the mention of her name, already anticipating who she might find, and there just as expected was Queen Alizara sat atop her throne, a smug yet board expressed laced onto her face, her blue hair trailing behind her as her crown sparkled in the sunlight.
  • Page 3"You got a shiny rock. Not the Ezerulium Crystal." Alizara bellowed out from atop her throne, clearly listening into their conversation. And Eclipse glanced to the crystal in Elana's hands, the one she'd fought to get to, the one they'd brought here. Brought to Alizara... the sting of betrayal cut like a knife, Elana hand been playing her the whole time. She'd brought her here, laid out a perfect trail of breadcrumbs so that they'd get the crystal for Alizara so she could complete her spell.

  • Page 5Elana nodded weakly, as the familiar sting of betrayal sank into her bones. "Why would you do this?" She asked, her voice barely above a whisper, she needed to know, no matter how much the answer would kill her to receive. She needed to know.
  • The Rose GardenThe Queen rose up from her throne, towering above her using her enormous wings, which only added to her magnitude, she was truly terrifying. But Eclipse wasn't ready to let her win, not when lives were on the line if this spell were to go through. She couldn't let Alizara get her necklace.

  • Page 9"She won't be able to help you with this battle I'm afraid, she's already played her role." Alizara had spelled her, that had to be the only option, combined with her manipulation of Elana earlier, this only severed to anger her more. She needed to do something.
  • The Rose GardenAlizara shouted something to her again, but it sounded far away, like she was in a different room altogether, the noise echoed around her mind as she fell into a sea of green, when the emerald light disappeared, she was left in a cool black room. Her necklace was still glowing, brighter this time and she could feel the pull of magic radiating from it, it felt almost as powerful as Cosmic had.

  • Page 13Eclipse pointed the shining blade at Alizara's throat, it glowed with power, enhanced by the Ezerulium Crystal. "It's over." She stated fiercely, her eyes locking with the Queen's, so she understood just how much she meant it. She'd won.
  • The Rose GardenShe shivered, feeling unnaturally cold as she heard a steady rhythm of footsteps from... somewhere. She couldn't focus; her heart was pounding so loudly she could hardly hear anything above it. She tried moving her eyes again, the blinding green light was almost too much for her to take, and she screwed then shut once more. She was tired. So, so tired. She felt sleep tugging at the edges of her soul, and she breathed out heavily before finally giving into the darkness.

  • Chapter 7"Eclipse!" She yelled, desperation clouding her voice as she saw the sparks forming in Alizara's hand, she knew Eclipse hadn't seen them. She couldn't have, and then... the room was enveloped in a blinding red light. She buried her face in her arms to keep from getting blinded, and when she reopened her eyes, the room felt colder, darker and- "Eclipse!" She shouted out, her eyes landing on her immediately, she was curled up on herself lying motionless on the floor. No, no. No!
  • The Rose GardenElana closed her eyes, wondering just what she could do to stop this. She didn't have magic, not like Alizara had and she's seen what she'd done to Eclipse. She was no match for her mother.

  • The Rose GardenShe felt her shoulders slump, as her arms dropped to her sides. It was over. It was finally over. The Ezerulium Crystal lie just out of Alizara's reach, shattered into millions of tiny pieces.

Life in the Jovial Empire looked different after the battle. With Alizara bound to life in the castle dungeon, the palace started to take on a different form. For the first time since Solaris's death, the castle let in light and music and finally opened its doors to the public for the upcoming coronation.

It was a kingdom wide celebration; everyone gathered from throughout to meet the new heir to the throne.

The ballroom was decorated to perfection, the stained-glass windows polished until they sparkled, letting in more light than the throne room had seen in over seven thousand moons, and a symphony echoed through the air.

As the day progressed so did the festivities, the ceremony was cause for celebration, and it wasn't until late that afternoon when everyone gathered to watch the ceremony.

The orchestra played, as the doors swung open, revealing Elana dressed in a truly majestic gown, looking every bit the Queen she was about to become. She walked slowly to the front, a round of applause echoing through the throne room as she did so.
