> "Some kings fall in war.
Others fall in prophecy.
But the ones who ruled silence…
Die with no one left to remember their name."

Scene I – A King of Mirrors
The battlefield stilled as the Silent King stepped forward.
His armor glinted like glass — fractured with veins of silver sorrow.
His voice was cold wind, speaking into the minds of thousands:
> "I ruled before your fire.
I reigned when light was young.
You think you've won, flame-born mother.
But you have only begun to burn."
He raised his hand — and a hundred mirror-guard rose from ash, soulless, cold, reflecting the fears of those who stared at them.

Scene II – Seraphina and Ravon
But Seraphina stood unmoved, the child's heartbeat pulsing through her veins.
Ravon stepped beside her, wings still dripping flame and blood.
> "You wear silence like a crown," Ravon said.
"But silence breaks, too."
The Silent King drew his blade — a sword of memory — and pointed it at them.
The duel began.

Scene III – The Final Duel
The world faded.
Seraphina, glowing in flame and light.
Ravon, shadowed and vengeful.
The Silent King, cold and ancient — every movement like a whisper of eternity.
They struck.
Sparks. Screams. Light and shadow dancing.
The King struck Ravon down once.
Seraphina screamed, but the child's cry echoed from her soul — it shattered the mirrors around them.
In that moment of weakness, Ravon rose.
SHe whispered something to Seraphina — a word only she heard.
Then, together, they launched the final strike:
Light in her hand.
Shadow in his blade.
The prophecy fulfilled.
The Silent King staggered.
He looked at them both — with something close to sorrow.
> "So it ends again…"
And then — he shattered like a mirror touched by truth.
Gone.
His sword fell. His throne in the north collapsed.

🩶 Final Moments:
The battlefield was quiet.
Ravon held Seraphina as her strength wavered.
The child stirred, but waited.
From the skies, the Blind Oracle spoke once more:
> "The Silent Crown is broken.
But war does not end with a king's death."
And far away, in the ruined lands…
The Cradleless stirred again.
