CHAPTER THIRTEEN
THE BATTLE OF TWO WORLDS
The portal between Aetheria and Veyra opened.
Emotional magic poured into Elara's world.
People stopped walking.
They stopped working.
They looked at the sky.
One woman suddenly began crying.
A man laughed.
A child hugged his mother.
For the first time in generations, Veyra felt.
Chaos followed.
But so did life.
People discovered music.
Art.
Love.
Grief.
Hope.
Some were frightened.
Some resisted.
But slowly, they began changing.
The government tried to stop Elara.
They called her dangerous.
But the people had begun remembering.
And once people remembered how to feel, they could no longer be controlled by silence.
Kael stood beside Elara as the city transformed.
"You did it."
She shook her head.
"We did it."
He smiled.
"Where do we live now?"
Elara looked between both worlds.
"Why choose?"
Kael laughed.
"That's my girl."
