They drifted into the blackness for another day, then two. Still the sea did not appear.
Aelin was sleeping, a dreamless, heavy slumber, when a strong hand clasped her shoulder. "Look," Rowan whispered, his breath brushing her ear.
She opened her eyes to pale light. Not the ocean, she realized as she sat up, the others rousing, undoubtedly at Rowan's word.
Overhead, clinging to the cavern ceiling as if they were stars trapped beneath the rock, small blue lights glowed.
Glowworms, like those in the lantern Thousands of them, made infinite by the reflection in the black water. Stars above and below.
From the corner of her eye, Aelin glimpsed Elide press a hand to her chest. A sea of stars—that's what the cave had become.
Beauty. There was still beauty in this world.
Stars could still glow, still burn bright, even buried under the earth.
Aelin breathed in the cool cave air, the blue light. Let it flow through her.
Rattle the stars. She'd promised to do that.
The emerald on her marriage band glistened with its own fire.
Beauty remained—and she would fight for it. Needed to fight.
It was a constant thrum in her blood, her bones. Right alongside the power that she shoved down deep and dismissed with each breath. Fight—one last time.
She'd escaped so she might do it. Would think of all those still defying Morath, defying Maeve, while she trained. She wouldn't hesitate. Didn't dare to pause. She'd make this time count. In every way possible.
Aelin could have sworn the living stars overhead sang, a celestial choir that floated through the caves.
A star-song carried along the river current, running beside them, for the last miles to the sea.

Didn't lift a burning hand. She merely lingered by Elide her face like stone.#is Aelin there to protect Elide#recoiling wherever they met the light. — Aelin is this light#was the wind Rowan#what did they want#Aelin said and Elide could have sworn that the gold in the queen's eyes glowed.

"The Hermit stands alone on the top of a mountain. The snow-capped range symbolizes his spiritual mastery, growth, and accomplishment. He has chosen this path of self-discovery and, as a result, has reached a heightened state of awareness."
