Chapter 19

They reached the bank of the lake. Lyla felt the weight of Phala’s body even before that, and she knew Michael had had enough. As soon as they touched land, he flopped down to the sand.

She checked Phala’s pulse to ensure he was still breathing. Then she went over to Michael.

She turned him over so he was lying on his back. She wiped the wet hair away from his face. He looked up at her with his beautiful soft green eyes. She loved to see the twinkle in them whenever he made his smart-ass remarks. But they were a little less full of life at the moment. “I think I have to be off for a sec to fix these broken ribs, or maybe my entire rib cage. Are you okay to stay put for a bit?”

“Take your time, Michael. I’ll—” She sighed. He was out already.

She knew his wounds were critical. He had to totally shut his system down to heal them faster. Still, his Iilos energy wasn't as strong as her Eudaizian energy. She wondered if she could help.

She opened his shirt and winced at what she saw. The side where she had hit him had already formed the black and purple bruises indicative of severe internal damage. He was right—it might be the complete rib cage he needed to fix. She hovered her hands over the wounds.

Father told her he had given Michael Eudaizian energy. This should work like magic, but there were two problems—one, she didn’t have any equipment to draw her blood and inject it into him and, more importantly, two, she didn’t have the special silver blood. Only Silver Blood commanders had that.

She wondered where the energy Michael had drawn from the fire cloud in the temple had gone. Why didn’t it help him at all? She summoned some gentle heat in the air around her and heated up her palms, keeping them over the wounds.

“Sorry, Michael. This will feel just like a heat pack. When we get back to the time where we’re supposed to be, I’ll get the medical pack and give you some ordinary Eudaizian blood. Something is better than nothing.”

She felt a cold rush of air at the back of her neck.

A faint female voice echoed in the air. “Lyla…”

Lyla jumped to her feet and whirled around. She saw nobody. A few feet away from her was a small wedge of forest with a winding path leading back to the village and the castle.

“Who’s that?”

Nobody answered.

“Show yourself.”

“I have nothing to show. I am now a hovering spirit…because of you.”

“Who are you?”

“You didn’t honor your promise in the temple.”

“Kannitha?”

“Don’t you dare speak my name. You killed me.”

“I didn’t kill you. I killed the vessel.”

“What vessel?”

“The body you lived in was the vessel. Your body and your brain were manipulated and turned into a vessel by someone or something from the multiverse. You might not believe me, but I knew it the moment I saw your vision in the temple. It wasn’t magic, Kannitha.
