Summary
Jazzele feels the first clink of metal in her chest that night.
At what point was she supposed to have recognized the sudden yawning wrath that came with the sentience of another's waking mind?
Dominants, victims of the crystal's curse. Eight of their name: hated, revered, doomed; one and all the same.
They say the Eikons have no will of their own. Yet in the line of succession, an Eikon might sometimes spawn a second Dominant to try and wrest control from the original. For any which reason—the Eikon no longer agrees with its main host, there’s an anomaly in the process. In all cases, the Eikon itself seeks a more worthy bearer.
In the age of Dominants, Barnabas Tharmr, King of Waloed and Warden of Darkness, meets the coming of the second Odin.
And she would see his rule put to ash.
