Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3385

The remnant spirit hovered in place and studied Shiloh for a moment. Then, it drifted closer and circled her several times, muttering words no one could understand.

Andrew did not relax for even a second, and Godslayer remained ready in his hand.

Then, the spirit's form pulsed and expanded with a sudden burst of energy. "I'm free! I'm finally free! The two conditions afflicting this young woman are gone. My lord, thank you. I'm going into the light now!"

With one last elated cry, the spirit's form dissolved and scattered into the air, leaving nothing behind.

Nyx blinked in shock and quickly asked, "Shiloh, how do you feel?"

Shiloh did not seem any different on the surface. She looked at her hands and touched her face, then hesitated.

"I'm not really sure… I…"

Then, her head snapped up, and something shifted behind her eyes. Memories came flooding in one after another. It took nearly ten full minutes before her breathing steadied and the storm behind her eyes finally calmed.

Her face cycled through confusion, shock, and disbelief before settling into something quiet and still.

Nyx leaned toward Andrew and murmured, "Honey, do you notice that? Something about Shiloh just… changed."

Andrew had already noticed. He was watching her eyes, and what he saw in them now was a depth that had not been there before, something worn and ancient, like someone who had lived through far more than her appearance let on.

Then, just as quickly as it surfaced, it was gone.

"Shiloh, are you…"

Before Andrew could even finish, Shiloh was already moving straight toward the Crimson Flame Lord and his two Guardians with long, unhurried strides.

The two Guardians broke into a charge and came at her simultaneously.
