    “There’s something wrong with me."

    “There’s nothing wrong with you,” Torchbearer said, a harsh edge to his voice.

    Summary

    I can’t shake the ending of City Walls. That’s why… the cycle begins anew.

     

    Torch thought he had left the past behind—until he meets a new Clancy. The same face, the same name, a cruel echo of everything he once lost. But the harder he tries to protect the boy, the more the shadows of the old Clancy begin to resurface. Caught between corrupting marks, hidden truths, and impossible choices, Torch must decide: can this Clancy be saved, or is he doomed to the same fate?

    Summary

    “I’ve heard your kind were hardly better than feral dogs,” the cultist seethes with something like a wry smile on his cracked and swollen lips, “but I have to admit, you’ve managed to surprise me.”

    His eyes wander over the Torchbearer’s piecemeal armor, his tattered green tunic caked in mud so that the embroidered symbology is barely visible, his bloodied hands that never seem to wash clean these days. But the prisoner’s gaze seems to linger longest on the handle of the battleaxe that the Torchbearer carries on his back.

    Still faintly smiling, he asks, “Have you also come to offer me absolution, or are you my vengeful executioner here to relieve me of my head?”

    “You’re still breathing, aren’t you?”

    Summary

    “And how do I go about asking someone to the dance?” Tyler asks. If his face wasn’t warm before, it definitely was now.

    Mark blinks. He looks stunned for just a split second before his face softens. Tyler thinks for a minute that Mark will make fun of him, but he doesn’t.

    “It doesn’t have to be anything grand, Tyler…I have to say, I did not expect for you of all people to be asking me these type of questions.” Mark laughs as Tyler looks to the floor.

    “I don’t think I realised how much I missed you. The torchbearer that was with me in my head…he guided me and I knew he did care for me but…” Tyler starts, trying to voice it out loud.

    Summary

    Tyler looks up at him then, it’s cold out here, but their proximity to the fire has sweat dripping down Josh’s face. His beanie is off, and his curls are now so long they’re curling above his eyes. Years ago, if Josh’s hair was this length, Tyler would've done something like brush it out of his face. Even with the mix of emotions he’s feeling right now, he fights the urge.

    “I’m not sorry for what I did to get you here. I mean– okay, I am sorry for that, because I know it hurt you, or it’s hurting you right now. But it was necessary. But what I am sorry for is not protecting you like I should've.”
