This is the sequel to "Strength, Power, Control and Let it Go"
To avoid spoilers, do not read ahead.
I will post more in June.
"And now?"
"We wait."
"For a threat that may never come."

"We've brought down kingdoms. I'm sure it's nothing we can't handle."
"I wouldn't be so sure of myself if I were you. There are a few things I am certain of. We'll need everyone for what's coming. Elara was nothing compared to this. Death would have been kinder to Mare and Maven. But by putting them together they will be stronger for it."
"And Alex?"
Jon only grins. "I've been meaning to congratulate you on your new family. But as for the true meaning to your question. Maven and Alex will need each other for years to come. But there is no need to worry. I also see happiness, laughter, and...hope."
His gaze goes distant, not in thought, but in the future.
"Huh, a future of light and dark indeed."
"Well, I hope your right. But I also hope you're wrong."
"I wish the same. Somethings are blurred but others are set in stone. I see heartbreak, death, division and so much pain. A new generation as well as those from the past both uniting and tearing each other apart. But one thing is for sure, the burning crown will reign again."
