There are fleeting moments that Hypatia cannot glimpse. As much as Saphira’s lightning element may overwhelm her and make her uncomfortable, Hypatia can still see everything she wants to. It is a curse. Like the Shard. The Diadem glints under the tension in the air; the Shard is not active, Hypatia’s Relic rules here. They are calm.
The Queen does not make promises she cannot keep. Otherwise her people would not believe her. But that is for another time, and for Saphira to figure out herself. ”You can stop it. The hunger. The power. Alshain would want that. Pirate would.” What would Pirate think now? His one time lover keeping the Shard in her chest as her daughter was once held captive by it.
Pirate. Come back. Come back.
Hypatia’s mind is an ever constant whisper in the darkness where he used to be.
”The question is: Will you?”
Protect those we love? Who does Saphira love now? The Shard will be all she thinks about soon. Will she become like Elemmire? Will it become her only thought? Will love ever come back into play? Hope? Compassion?
”I will die for it someday. You will too. Watch out for Elemmire.”
The shard makes her sick, and with her napalm smell and marshmallow mind, the Naphtha finds solace alone in her desert home. She’ll see Pirate in the mirages, and pretend she isn’t alone anymore.
