I spoke the last words aloud, my head flying up to meet Jedi’s concerned gaze. His brows had lowered over his eyes as he watched me in silence.

Josian broke the moment. “All of those words are in the original language. The six elements and the last four represent conduit, power, prison, and finally the Seventine. It will draw in their energy and lock them away again.”

I stared down at the paper. “So the only thing stopping us now is that we don’t have the seven half-Walkers?”

Jedi and Josian both nodded.

My father spoke again. “Pretty much, and it’ll be much harder and require a lot more of your blood and power if all seven of them are free. If we can perform this ritual before they’re fully released … well, that’s a much better option.”

Sapha shifted in her chair. For the first time since we’d sat down, she spoke. “I think what you are saying is that, to perform this ritual after all of these … Seventy things … are released, will cost us half-Walkers our lives. All of our power and blood. But if we can do it before their final release, we have a chance to survive, correct?”

It was in that moment I realized how much she truly observed in her quiet little pose. Quiet didn’t mean stupid. Sapha took in every piece of information and, in typical Walker fashion, her brain worked superfast and arranged the pieces in logical order.

Jedi’s lips straightened into a scowl of sorts. “Yes, unfortunately it looks that way. Which is why the original seven were no longer able to hold their Walker forms. They poured much into the prison, and the rest of their energy scattered in the star-system.”

Scattered until it became part of us seven half-Walkers.

Sapha didn’t say anything, but we did lock eyes for a moment, and I saw plenty unsaid in those red depths. This was probably not the conversation we should be having with someone a little unsure about joining our cause. I was about to say something reassuring when a familiar tapping sensation caressed my shielded head.

Brace. I dropped the barrier without hesitation.

Hey, Red.

I let out a relieved sigh, not caring if everyone else in the room thought I was a freak.

What’s happening, Princeps? I did my best to keep my tone light.

Missing you, and kicking the shit out of my faithful subjects to keep myself sane.

I was almost ninety percent sure he was kidding. I let out a few chuckles. He continued speaking.

I’ve found out something interesting about the lalunas. Not only are Tenni and the rest of her little faeries connected, but the fourteen stones are also each connected. If we trap in the majority, the rest will be pulled along.

I smiled; we were all on the same track. Yep, Dad has collected the thirteen stones. We’re holding them here, and Grantham is off determining the exact ritual we need.

Brace paused. I could sense his brain ticking over. What’s your plan then, to contain the thirteen
