Dragonfall

They locked my healer behind a wall that killed his bond.
I sent a storm, broke down the door, and started a war.

Sable’s execution was set for sunrise. We had hours. Four riders, one Dragonsoul, and a mother who spent seven years memorizing every weakness in the fortress that held us. By dawn, we’d rescued our healer, delivered seventeen pages of evidence to the tribunal, and begun clearing a path through two centuries of compressed grief toward the one place the dead could finally be heard.

The mountain was fracturing. The anchor—compressed sorrow at the deepest point of the Gorge—was twisting the dead into wraiths faster than I could purify them. Thorne’s soldiers were closing from above. Capital reinforcements were marching from the east. And the compound holding my four bonds together was cracking under the strain.

Sable—freed from his cell with bruises on his face and compound glowing on his hands, who walked straight into the grief-sediment sphere and carved a two-hundred-foot path with nothing but keeper paste and an Elderwyrm’s borrowed strength.
Bastian—who sat before the tribunal and burned five generations of his family’s legacy to ash, then held a corridor against an army with wind and lightning while the mountain shook.
Leander—whose right hand was going numb, whose phantom-fire was climbing toward his throat, and who built the legal framework that cracked a two-century conspiracy wide open.
Orion—who held the wraiths back in the dark with nothing but gravity so I could walk through, knowing the math didn’t add up and refusing to leave anyway.

To reach the Hall of Bones, I had to dissolve. Release my name. My body. My self. Let four Elderwyrm bonds pull me apart and speak every name the mountain had been holding for two hundred years.

The dead weren’t waiting to be freed.

They were waiting to be witnessed.

I spoke every name. I carried every death. And when I came back, the junction that held my four bonds together was gone.

But my bonds held. My riders held. And the mountain was finally doing what it was built to do.
