"It is done. The Phoenix has been reborn," She heard a voice whisper into her head before her eyes flew open.
She sat up abruptly and looked around the room. There were two people present with her in it. She recognised them as Zedicus' and Xeres. The room didn't look familiar. She had no idea where she was. It was already dark outside.
"She did it. She brought you back just as she said she would," Zedicus said. There was a sadness at the back of his voice.
Xeres was smiling but there were tears in it. Alexia got down from the circular podium and saw Malia lying on the ground. She rushed to her. She was still breathing but her mother had gone cold.
"Malia! Malia!" Alexia called.
Malia only smiled at her. "You made it," She said before shutting her eyes for good.
