Shadow’s Veil – Part 4
Vaelin hit the ground hard. His breath punched from his lungs as he tumbled through the darkness, his body rolling across something smooth and cold. He came to a stop on his back, staring up at a sky that wasn’t a sky at all—just an endless void swirling with fragmented light, twisting like liquid glass.

The Shard and the Dream. AI-Generated.
The first time Clea Trask set foot in Rivervale, she had no intention of ever returning. It was a city like no other—a place where the river twisted in strange loops, where time seemed to slip and stretch in impossible ways. She’d heard the rumors of the Glass Tower, of course. Everyone had. But it was just a myth, a story told to warn the curious, to keep the unwary from wandering too close.

She had no choice but to follow the whispers of the glass shard that still burned in her pocket.
