The bronze-framed mirrors oozed Wolf Mother's marrow mucus. Each step Alyssa took triggered 365 reflections of her divergent selves—a wailing infant left, an adult branded with "Mad King" sigils right, a corpse clawing mirror surfaces behind.
"Crone's boudoir exceeds expectations." She bound bleeding silver veins with grey fur, only to see the infant reflection grin with Kane-spaced fangs. Wolf-shaped chandeliers rotated overhead, casting azure shadows that shredded her image.
Kane's cursed wolf-shadow seeped through mirrors reeking of oxidized metal: "Vessel modification 92%—inspection due." His form folded through dimensions—a branded child, slaughtering crouch, blade-polishing elegance—all temporal slices attacking simultaneously.
Alyssa's bone spike shattered the nearest glass, fragments liquefying into mercury invading Wolf Mother's phalange. The maze collapsed into two dimensions, forcing her sideways into mirror crevices. Her flattened reflections diverged—infant-self strangling priest-masked Kane with umbilical cords, adult-self devoured by multiplying sigils.
"Enjoy dimensional play?" Kane's true voice pierced from 4D fissures, his fangs branching seven prongs each hung with her hair strands. Howling echoes created twelve-layered sonic labyrinths. On the seventh wave, all mirrors replayed Laine's lab footage: her embryo regressing in Wolf Mother's blood, umbilical cords grafted to Kane's spine.
Silver veins erupted tetrahedral prisms, tearing reality into Klein bottle structures. Alyssa somersaulted through fourth-dimensional gaps, seizing the phalange behind a mirror—her own infantile caudal bone transformed, etched with "73" in binary.
"Easter egg!" Kane materialized across seven mirror timelines. Alyssa stabbed the phalange into her veins, azure blood forming Möbius rings. Reflections infinitely recursed: each Alyssa hunting Kane's projections, each Kane cannibalizing his variants.
Wolf Mother's skull shattered below. Between dimensional shifts, Alyssa glimpsed mirror-backed glyphs: Laine Subject 73 Mirror Verification Failed. Her reflection pierced the glass, pressing the bloody phalange to her forehead—imprinting Kane's infantile wolf birthmark.
