Seven cradles rock without hands. In each is a small hollow in the water where a child ought to be.

Their voices are caught in a lullaby with no last line. The third key is hidden in that ending. You can finish the song and let the singers go.

Or you can bind them into a black tuning fork. It will make your fire more cruel: one extra damage with every Burn, and one flame now.

Choose your way
