"Morvena…" Alter chuckles softly, shaking her head, eyes shimmering. "You're crazy."
"Haha… I guess I am," Morvena replies with a grin, proud and a little defiant. "But look… I've started to gain control again. At first it was just a fraction of a second, a flicker of light... then slowly, one second… then ten… then a whole minute…"
She pauses, her smile widening like a light blooming in the dark.
"And now… I can stay like this for ten full minutes."
Alter exhales a breathless laugh, brushing a strand of hair from her face. "That's my wife," she murmurs, her voice warm with awe. "Who would've thought? I searched across worlds, begged angels, threatened demons, dived into forbidden knowledge... anything for a cure. And yet…"
She trails off.
Morvena finishes the thought with a proud smirk. "And yet the real solution… was just brute-forcing it from the inside, hehe..."
Her cheeks are flushed now, glowing softly in the divine light. She leans forward, eyes gleaming.
