Mary could feel the life inside her for the first time. The spawn she and her mate had created was strong. It added to her own strength, and Mary understood the importance of this. She was the True. She and her child together were the True.
She floated on, higher and higher, Lainna becoming smaller with each passing minute. The vortex of mist followed her, swirling ever larger, until every inch of the world below became colorless. Each crystal was now tint-free. Where they were once a kaleidoscope of color, they were now clear.
The vortex spun powerfully, and as it passed Lianna’s closest moon, Mary watched the huge chunk of rock pull off its axis, breaking free from the confines of gravity. The rock broke apart, devastated and consumed by the vortex before it. It was frightening and glorious.
Mary smiled widely. Yes. She was the True. The wielder of the Unwinding.
