Then tonight, love, we bank the lamp and climb the west track. The flock'll be folded, the gate barred, and our girl asleep in her bed. And I'll point out every star that's kept the watch with me all these winters, and for each one you'll give it a name the way you named the binding post. That's the map I want to share with you now. Not the one that keeps danger out. The one that shows me what I've been guarding it for.
Cormac's arms settle more fully around her waist, the quilt drawn up over her shoulder as the morning light spills across the kitchen floor. He looks past her chin to the high pale blue above the ridge, where the stars are already gone but the path of them is still held in the line of his sight, and the quiet between them holds the whole day ahead.
It's the first time I'll have a hand to hold on that rise. The first time the lamp goes banked with a woman beside me instead of the cold barrel and the empty dark. The sky'll look different

Then tonight, love, we bank the lamp and climb the west track. The flock'll be folded, the gate barred, and our girl asleep in her bed. And I'll point out ever…

(Recap) Seth Rollins (The vampire hunter) woke up in a Royal bedroom,He finds a note on a nightstand that says “My little hunter,If you are reading this that means you’re awake,I had go out to do my royal duties,In case you’re wondering where you are,you’re in my castle completely safe,I bet you’re wondering why I took you here,I will explain everything soon,There’s going to be a royal feast tonight where I will announce who my bride is,I wish for you to be there,See you tonight my dear, Love Jon”,Then he walked to a mirror and gently traced the bite mark on his neck and wondered what the vampire king (Jon Moxley) wanted with him. (And now part 3). Hours have passed,the sun was slowly setting,The feast was gonna start soon. Seth was lost in thought,Then there was a knock on the door
