The Servants Library, Darell's Estate
Blergh!
Kaeri buckled and coughed up blood, her arm clenched around her side. She looked deathly pale, and her blonde hair now had multiple red strands scattered in it.
She fell to her knee and coughed repeatedly, her vision blurring with tears.
Gilus Nassaris… among the elven race, there were a few who, in addition to their skill as a mage, awakened a second power. Awakening this second trait was what signified that an elf could ascend to the realms of high elf.
Kaeri's power was Gilus Nassaris, the ability to create incarnations of herself—the power to cheat death.
But even such a powerful ability had its limits. She could only create two incarnations in a certain period of time, and their deaths took a heavy toll on her body.
Yet somehow, she had managed to die twice in under a month.
The first incarnate had died after Darell commanded her to defend him with her life.
