🔄 Expanded Recap of Chapter 57 – Lyra's Choice
Last time, the fragile balance between mortality and divinity shattered as Lyra stood between Kai and death.
In the silent aftermath of Mira's failed assassination attempt, Kai's bond with Lyra deepened. Her blade defended his body, but her faith defended his soul. The moment Mira hesitated—choosing mercy over obedience—Kai saw that even the most loyal can fracture. And in that fracture, destiny bled.
But the truest confrontation happened beyond the veil of flesh.
Pulled into the Void, Kai encountered Kai'Zuran—the god sealed within his blood. No longer just a legend or a voice in the dark, Kai'Zuran appeared as a mirror of Kai's potential future: a being of terrible grace, forged in war and crowned in betrayal.
