The Five That Bind

Thank you for reading Episode 2. Here, Samuel finally steps away from hiding among mortals and begins forming the alliance he already knows he needs. His humor with Daniel shows he hasn’t forgotten where he’s lived… but meeting Tristan proves he hasn’t forgotten what the universe expects from him either. Samuel isn’t trying to prove anything — he’s simply gathering the power required to face the sisters who believe they’ve already won. And if Episode 2 revealed anything, it’s this: Samuel is confident. Samuel is in control. And the Void doesn’t recruit — it chooses.
