The sacred healing chamber felt colder today . The packs elders murmured faint prayers in the background , their ancient chants mingling with Graces faint cries of pain . I stood at the doorway , rooted for several moments before I finally stepped inside . The weight of the room threatened to buckle my knees . Grace lay bound to the sacred stone slab . Her frail form shivered beneath her restraints . Her once glowing , angelic features were now shadowed , her skin pale and clammy . Silver streaked her veins , spreading like poison a cruel reminder of the curse holding her captive in this nightmare . 1/3 Chapte 12 Karma I moved closet and with every step , the weakness in her body became more apparent .
