His eyes gleamed, and he buried his face between my breasts again, hands caressing my back. βI love you,β he breathed. βMore than life, more than my territory, more than my crown.

I will never stop being grateful to have you in my life, either, Feyre darling. And no matter what lies ahead"--a small, joyous smile at that--"we will face it together. Enjoy every moment of it together.

The weaver went on, βI have to create, or it was all for nothing. I have to create, or I will crumple up with despair and never leave my bed. I have to create because I have no other way of voicing this.β Her hand rested on her heart, and my eyes burned. βIt is hard,β the weaver said, her stare never leaving mine, βand it hurts, but if I were to stop, if I were to let this loom or the spindle go silent β¦β She broke my gaze at last to look to her tapestry. βThen there would be no Hope shining in the Void.

He wanted to bury her in Velaris. Somewhere full of light and warmth, full of kind people. Far away from these mountains.

She hadn't felt anything in months. Had days when she didn't really know where she was or what she'd done. They passed swiftly and yet dripped by. So did the months. She'd blinked, and winter had fallen. Blinked, and her body had turned too thin. As hollow as she felt.

There was a tiny box left on the table by the window- a box the Mor lifted, squinted and the name tag, and said, "Az, this one's for you."
The shadowsinger's brows lifted, but his scarred hand extended to take the present.
Elain turned from where she'd been speaking to Nesta. "Oh, that's from me."
Azriel's face didn't so much as shift at the words. Not even a smile as he opened the present and revealed-
"I had Madja make it for me," Elain explained. Azreil's brows narrowed at the mention of the family's preferred healer. "It's a powder to mix in with any drink."
Silence.
Elain bit her lip and then smiled sheepishly. "It's for the headaches everyone always gives you. Since you rub your temples so often."
Silence again.
Then Azriel tipped his head back and laughted.

Just be patient. It'll sort itself out. It always does.

There was anger, occasionally. Sharp, hot anger that sliced her. But most of the time it was silence. Ringing, droning silence. She hadnβt felt anything in months.

I took it upon myself to add your presents to the communal trove.'
I lifted my brows. 'Everyone gave you their gifts?'
'He's the only one who can be trusted not to snoop,' Mor explained.
I looked toward Azriel.
'Even him,' Amren said.
Azriel gave me a guilty cringe. 'Spymaster, remember?'
'We started doing it two centuries ago,' Mor went on. 'After Rhys caught Amren literally shaking a box to figure out what was inside.'
Amren clicked her tongue as I laughed. 'What they didn't see was Cassian down here ten minutes earlier, sniffing each box.'
Cassian threw her a lazy smile. 'I wasn't the one who got caught.'
I turned to Rhys. 'And somehow you're the most trustworthy one?'
Rhys looked outright offended. 'I am a High Lord, Feyre darling. Unwavering honour is built into my bones.'
Mor and I snorted.
