The Weight of Power (Kinetic Union, Book 2)
The bond is broken. The world is reborn. But the price of freedom is heavier than they ever imagined.
Aethelgard has changed. The parasitic Law of Conservation has been shattered, replaced by the glow of the Violet Sun. For the first time in history, magic is not stolen-it is shared. But for Lyra and Kaelen, the victory feels like a hollow ache. The lethal magical tether that once forced them together has snapped, leaving them to navigate a world where they are no longer legally bound... but spiritually lost.
Lyra is no longer a Siphon of the frozen wastes; she is a leader in a world that is melting and shifting. Without Kaelen's presence in her mind, the silence is deafening. As new factions rise to claim the surplus of magic, Lyra must decide if she is a queen of peace or a relic of a war that isn't truly over.
Kaelen has traded his gilded cage for the terrifying expanse of the multiverse. Haunted by the echoes of his father's sins, he fears his solar light is becoming a weapon rather than a gift. When Temporal Echoes begin to fracture reality, Kaelen must venture into the fabric of time itself to protect the balance they died to create.
As the Nexus expands and ancient civilizations reach out from the shadows of history, Lyra and Kaelen are forced to face a devastating truth: power, even when used for good, carries a crushing weight. To save the future, they must choose to reconnect-not because a spell demands it, but because their souls require it.
In the breathtaking sequel to The Gravity of Us, the sparks of revolution become the fires of creation. In a universe unwritten, every choice carries the weight of a world.
