"deus sum"
Tetra has no heart. Lumina is shallow. Quin can't smile. Everything seems to piss Pi off.
Yeah, kinda hard to believe that these four were supposed to protect the world from an ancient evil, huh?
But when the very demon they were suppos...
One heck of along as and action-packed chapter. This includes both Chip Zeal and the beginning of Lycanthropy so that probably explains it. Longest chapter so far at almost 9000 words so it's gonna be a long read, brace yourselves.
Also more eye trauma. Again. Probably the worst in the entire book so at least the worst of it will be gone

"GO UP!"
Lumina, realising that the bubbling hot lava which they already lost Prochorus to was rising, barely had any reaction to Tetra's suggestion. In her mind, they were already dead. Why bother any more? All of this happened so suddenly, so her body was by no means prepared for the fight-or-flight response that had frankly dominated her bloodstream. Seeing as nobody was listening to them, Tetra went around shaking the shoulders of their siblings shrieking in their faces. "GUYS, WE NEED TO GO UP, WE NEED TO FIND A WAY UP THE VOLCANO!"
"WHAT? ARE YOU CRAZY?" Pi screamed back. "CLIMB THE VOLCANO? WHAT? WE CAN'T FLY! HOW DO WE KNOW THIS IS GONNA WORK?"
"WHAT, YOU'D RATHER DIE HERE?"
Silence, Pi and Tetra stared at each other for a few tense seconds, like they were about to fight each other again but instead of all hell breaking loose, Pi just made an exasperated and stubborn "tsk" sound as she reluctantly agreed. After a weird look from Lumina, the triangle stared at them in disbelief.
