The path stretched ahead, and Malgarius felt as if the weight of the entire Ignis Realm was on his shoulders. But, somehow, he also felt as if, for the first time, there was a possibility of a future where they could be together. He glanced at Gwendolyn, taking in her beautiful face, her long blonde hair, and her radiant smile.
He could feel the pull of his attraction toward her, and for the first time, he allowed himself to give in to it, allowing his thoughts to drift freely and openly, imagining the possibility of a future where they could be together and explore the love between them.
And as he did, a new thought formed, a tiny seed of hope and possibility. He had the power to control the Ignis Realm. What if he could control more than just the landscape? What if he could manipulate the very fabric of time and space itself?
His heart skipped a beat. Was it even possible? He didn't know, but he was determined to find out.
