Bastian didn’t know where he was. A greenish light emanated all around him, casting a murky din over the ankle-deep water he stood in. He looked around, hearing naught but his own breath in his ears. Where had he been? What had he been doing?

Braddock, he thought.

“Bastian,” said a voice, soft and ethereal. A flash made him squint, the light shaping into a woman.

“Who are you?”

She padded forward, feet striding atop the shallow water, stopping before him. Bastian blinked. He had never seen her equal, indescribable in face and form, as though she was made of smoke and caught in a stiff breeze. She reached out, laying a finger on his forehead, and a strong gale kicked up around him.

“They all call me Midnight,” she said, “though that was never my name. This Braddock is dead?”

This Braddock? “What does that—”

“I need a soul to survive, Bastian, and yours will do. I’ve bonded with you. You and I, we are one now.”

“I don’t understand,” he said. She was fading. “I don’t understand! Who are you?”

“Go now,” Midnight said, no more than a whisper. “Be well, Prince Braddock. Claim your new place.”
