I’M ALL YOURS

Chapter 33: Chapter 33: The One Who Wakes



[Scene: Soulforge Vault – Days Later]

FX: Deep hum of ancient machines still echoing in the earth. All around, silence has reclaimed the ruins. Until… a heartbeat returns. 🖤🕰️

[Visual: Vault chamber. Most systems have failed. All but one stasis pod — the one with the name: "MORDAVIEL – VESSEL 00."]

A soft pulse flickers across the pod's glass.

Once.

Twice.

Then: his eyes open.

[FX: Electric SNAP — containment seals break. The fluid drains. The chamber exhales.]

He doesn't move yet. Just breathes.

Then—he speaks.

[Mordaviel (voice deep, steady)]:

"…She survived."

🌫️ Scene: Memory Ghost — Mordaviel's Mindscape

[Visual: He stands in a dark chamber, alone. In front of him: screens flicker showing memories.]

Elara disobeying orders

Echo breaking herself

Riven walking away from his pod

[Mordaviel (softly)]:

"She changed the end."

Mordaviel (thinking):

"They forged me for control."

"They forged her for loyalty."

"But loyalty slipped… and control was left sleeping."

[Screen shifts — showing young Mordain smiling, then twisted by time, until he becomes the Hollow King.]

Mordaviel (thinking):

"He broke. I didn't. But I was made to follow."

[Scene: Vault Exterior – Dust falls from the ceiling as the pod unlocks fully.]

[FX: CRACK— The glass splits, opening like petals.]

He steps out barefoot. His white hair falls past his shoulders. His skin is unmarked. Untouched by the world.

He is a king in silence.

But not yet human.

[A console activates near him — final protocol message loading.]

"Subject 00: Mordaviel. Last known link: Project Ariyenna. Reboot blocked. Soullink severed."

"New designation: UNCHAINED."

[Mordaviel touches the screen. Watches Riven walk away on playback.]

Mordaviel (whispers):

"You walked away from me… before we even met."

"And yet… I remember your voice."

[He kneels. Not in pain. In reflection.]

[Mordaviel]:

"I am the vessel that waited. I am the chain that never snapped."

He places a hand on the floor.

From his palm, black roots spread. Slowly. Silently. Into the ruins. Into the earth.

"If I cannot be loved, I will be remembered."

[FX: Deep, low rumble beneath the mountains.]

Something ancient responds to his awakening.

[Scene Shift: Frostline Cliffs – Same Time]

FX: Riven (Elara) stops walking. Her breath catches. Her soulblade pulses once — low, like a warning.

[Kaelith turns.]

"You feel that?"

[Riven (quietly)]:

"He's awake."

[Visual: The fire she named herself by flickers violently.]
