Blood moon's curse Chapter 51: Eryndor’s Tale
The shard pulsed with dark energy as Aria placed it into Eryndor's outstretched hand, its black surface gleaming in the twilight. His eyes, once clouded by the curse, cleared, and his ancient gaze returned to its full, piercing sharpness. There was a moment of absolute stillness before he spoke, his voice low and reverberating with an eerie calm."Thank you," he said softly, his fingers closing around the shard. The air around them seemed to shift, a ripple of magic passing through the ruins. "The curse is lifted."Aria felt a weight lifting off her shoulders. For the first time in days, she could breathe deeply, unencumbered by the sense of impending doom that had been constantly hanging over them. Yet, something in Eryndor’s eyes told her that this was only the beginning.Eryndor stepped back, his tall form still radiating the quiet authority that had earned him his position as the guardian of these forsaken plains. He raised his hands, and the world around them seemed to come alive

The winds howled as the group moved through the barren landscape that bordered the Obsidian Plains, each step forward carrying them closer to the Evernight Citadel. A place spoken of in legends, its dark spires piercing the sky, and its ominous shadow stretching across the boundary of the First Realm. The journey was long and fraught with peril, but the urgency in their hearts kept them moving, pushing through the storms and the fatigue that gnawed at them. As they made camp one evening, the crackling of the fire was the only sound that broke the tense silence between them. Lucian was, as usual, distant, his dark eyes fixed on something only he could see in the distance. His lips were tight, his jaw clenched, and Aria couldn’t help but notice the tension in his posture, as though he were holding back something vital. Kael, on the other hand, had taken to staying close to Aria, his presence steady and comforting. They were used to the quiet between them, the camaraderie of shared ba

The Evernight Citadel loomed before them, a towering fortress of black stone that seemed to drink in the faint light of the First Realm’s sunless skies. Shadows curled and danced across its jagged spires, and an unnatural chill settled into the air. Aria couldn’t help but feel the weight of its presence, as though the citadel itself was alive and watching them. The group paused at the base of the wide, ancient steps leading up to its massive gates. They were carved with intricate patterns that seemed to shift and writhe when viewed from the corner of the eye. No one dared to speak, their breaths visible in the icy air. As they climbed, the silence was broken by the sound of a low, resonant voice. “Who dares approach the Evernight Citadel?” The voice came from the gates themselves. A figure began to emerge, not from behind the doors but from within them. It was as though the shadows had taken form, coalescing into a towering being that radiated authority and menace. The Gatekee

The air inside the citadel felt heavier than before, pressing down on them with an almost suffocating weight. Shadows danced along the ancient walls, forming shapes that seemed alive. The group regrouped at the central chamber where their three paths converged. Their faces bore the marks of the trials they had already endured—cuts, bruises, and exhaustion etched into their expressions.“What now?” Kael asked, his voice sharp with frustration.Aria glanced around the chamber. The room was vast, with a ceiling so high it disappeared into darkness. At the center, a pedestal held a glowing orb, pulsating with an unnatural light. Ancient symbols carved into the floor surrounded it.“The trials aren’t over,” Lucian said, his voice cold and clipped. He gestured toward the orb. “This is only the beginning.”“Of course it is,” Kael muttered under his breath, his grip tightening on his sword.Eryndor appeared from the shadows, his form still ethereal but more solid than before. “The Evernight C

The group stepped into the Creator’s Chamber, and an overwhelming stillness enveloped them. Unlike the rest of the citadel, this room pulsed with a faint golden light, illuminating intricately carved walls that told stories of ancient battles, realms, and a power that transcended life itself. At the center stood a massive crystalline pedestal, and within it, a faint glow pulsed—like a heartbeat, steady and unyielding.Aria couldn’t tear her gaze away. The room felt alive, and the closer she moved toward the pedestal, the stronger the pull became, as though an invisible thread connected her to it.“Careful,” Kael warned, stepping closer to her side, his hand hovering near his weapon.Lucian remained silent, standing at the edge of the room, his dark eyes scanning every detail. He seemed uneasy, his posture tense, as though he expected the chamber itself to turn on them.The light in the chamber shifted, coalescing into a radiant figure that floated above the pedestal. The being’s form

The tension was thick as the group gathered around the flickering firelight in the ancient courtyard of the citadel. Each member bore the weight of their own thoughts, their faces illuminated by the ethereal glow of the Heart. Aria sat at the edge of the group, her fingers tracing the delicate chain around her neck, where the Heart pulsed faintly, as if alive.Kael’s voice broke the silence, his tone tight with frustration. “This is madness, Aria. You can’t go through with the ritual. You don’t even know what it will do to you!”Aria looked up, meeting his fiery gaze. “Kael, we’ve been through this. If I don’t do it, the Heart’s corruption will spread. It’s already affecting this realm. We’ve seen what it can do.”Kael rose to his feet, his fists clenched. “There has to be another way. You’re risking everything—your life, your soul. How can you expect me to stand by and watch you throw it all away?”Lucian, who had been leaning against a crumbling pillar, finally spoke, his voice calm

The chamber trembled as Aria stepped into the center of the ancient runic circle, her breath uneven and shallow. The Heart, now glowing with an intensity that painted the room in crimson light, hung suspended before her, pulsating as though it had its own heartbeat. Aurelis’s spectral form hovered nearby, his voice calm but weighted with urgency.“Once you begin, there is no turning back,” Aurelis warned. “The Heart will resist you, test you, and tempt you. Stay focused, or you will lose yourself to it.”Aria nodded, though her hands trembled as she reached out toward the Heart. The cool, unnatural energy radiating from it sent shivers down her spine. Her gaze flickered briefly to Kael and Lucian, who stood on either side of the chamber, their weapons drawn and their faces etched with determination.“We’ve got your back,” Kael said, his voice firm despite the worry in his eyes.Lucian didn’t say a word, but the slight incline of his head spoke volumes. They were ready.Aria drew a dee
Last Updated : 2025-01-25Blood moon's curse Chapter 58: The Aftermath
The air in the Creator’s Chamber was thick with tension as Aria rose to her feet, her fingers still faintly glowing with the crimson light of the Heart. Her breathing was shallow, and her eyes burned with an intensity that hadn’t been there before. Silence hung heavily as the group stared at her, unsure of what to say or do.Lucian was the first to step forward, his gaze soft but wary. “Aria… are you alright?”She nodded, but the movement was hesitant. “I think so,” she murmured, her voice tinged with an unfamiliar edge. “But it feels... different. Like there’s something else inside me now.”Kael frowned, his grip tightening on his sword. “Different how?”“I can hear it,” she admitted, clutching her chest where the Heart’s energy had settled. “It’s like a whisper, a pull... It wants me to use it.”Aurelis, the spirit of the Heart’s creator, watched them with a solemn expression. “That is the burden of the wielder. The Heart’s power is vast, but it is also hungry. It will test you, Ari

Blood moon's curse Chapter 74: The Final Reckoning
The air was thick with tension as Aria, Lucian, and the rest of their group moved deeper into the cursed lands. The dark magic was almost suffocating now, clinging to their skin like an invisible shroud. The ground trembled beneath their feet, and the shadows twisted unnaturally, whispering secrets only the damned could understand.Lucian led the way, his senses sharper than ever. He could feel it—the heart of the curse was close. The entity that had plagued his bloodline for centuries was waiting for him. The others sensed it too. Even Dorian, who had always masked his emotions with a smirk and a sarcastic remark, was silent. Eldrin’s hands twitched near his daggers, and Evangeline muttered a quiet spell under her breath, her magic pulsing around her like a protective veil.And then, they saw it.A temple, ancient and crumbling, stood in the middle of a desolate clearing. Its pillars were covered in glowing red runes, pulsing in rhythm with an unseen heartbeat. At the temple’s center
Blood moon's curse Chapter 73
The morning light crept through the trees, casting a soft glow on the forest floor. Aria awoke to the sound of birds chirping, but her mind was still heavy with the events of the previous night. The weight of their journey pressed on her, and the uncertainty of what lay ahead loomed in her thoughts like an ominous cloud. But there was also a sense of purpose now—a resolve that had formed within her the moment she’d spoken those words to Lucian.She glanced around, noting that everyone was already up. Dorian was sharpening his sword, Eldrin was tending to their supplies, and Evangeline was quietly meditating, her eyes closed, her focus entirely inward. Lucian stood by the edge of the clearing, looking out into the woods, his posture tense as always, but there was something softer about him this morning.Aria stood and walked toward him, her footsteps barely making a sound on the soft earth. He turned when he heard her approach, his expression unreadable.“Morning,” Aria said quietly, h
Blood moon's curse Chapter 72: Secrets Unveiled
The sun dipped low in the sky, casting long shadows across the forest as Aria and the others made their way through the dense woods. The eerie calm that had settled in the wake of the explosion still lingered, and despite the outward silence, every member of the group could feel the weight of impending danger pressing in on them.Aria walked slightly ahead, her mind racing with the events that had unfolded in the past hours. Lucian’s power, the destruction of the stone structure, the overwhelming force they had barely escaped from… it all felt like the beginning of something much larger, something neither of them could fully comprehend. But the question lingered—why did it feel so personal?“Do you think it’s over?” Aria’s voice broke through the quiet, directed toward Lucian, who walked beside her, his eyes scanning the path ahead.Lucian’s lips were pressed into a tight line, his jaw tense. “No,” he replied shortly, his voice colder than usual. “That was only a warning. Whatever is
Blood moon's curse Chapter 71: Unseen Threads
The moon hung low in the sky, a silver sliver amidst the darkened canvas of the night. The aftermath of battle was heavy, like a thick fog settling over the land. But even amidst the quiet, there was an undercurrent of tension—something looming just beyond the horizon.Aria stood at the edge of the camp, her hand resting lightly on the hilt of her sword. She wasn’t sure if she was waiting for something to appear or simply lost in thought, but her eyes were sharp, scanning the distance. Lucian was nearby, overseeing the preparations for their departure, but he had given her space. He understood her need for solitude, for clarity.She sighed, pushing her hair back from her face, the wind catching it and whipping it around her shoulders. The battle had been brutal, but it wasn’t over."Lucian," she called, her voice steady but tinged with an unspoken question.He looked up, his eyes locking with hers instantly, as though he had been waiting for her to speak. "What is it?"Aria hesitated.
Blood moon's curse Chapter 70
Aria stared at Lucian, the weight of his words pressing down on her. A god—an ancient, sleeping god—was inside of him. And if he lost control…She shook off the thought. Not now. Not when he was here, standing before her, watching her like she was the only thing tethering him to this world.A small, wry smile tugged at her lips. “So, let me get this straight,” she said, tilting her head. “You’re an ancient vampire, cursed by a god, stronger than anything I’ve ever seen… and you’re still brooding about it?”Lucian blinked, then let out a surprised laugh. “Brooding?”“Yes,” she said, crossing her arms. “All this doom and gloom. ‘Oh no, Aria, I might lose control. I might destroy everything.’” She dropped her voice into a dramatic imitation of his deep tone. “It’s a bit much, don’t you think?”Lucian raised a brow. “I just told you I have the power of an eldritch god inside me, and your response is to mock me?”Aria grinned. “What else am I supposed to do? Cry? Run? I’d rather tease you.
Blood moon's curse Chapter 69
The silence between them was thick, pressing down like an unseen force. The ruins of the battlefield stretched around them, but the real war was happening in the space between Lucian and Aria.Aria’s pulse thrummed in her ears. Not just a vampire. Those words echoed in her mind, refusing to settle. She took a cautious step closer, watching Lucian as if he might shatter.“Then what are you?” she asked, her voice quiet but unwavering.Lucian exhaled slowly, running a hand through his hair. The silver glow in his eyes hadn’t faded completely, a lingering reminder of whatever had surfaced within him.“I don’t know how to explain it,” he admitted. “Not in a way that won’t make you run.”Aria’s brow furrowed. “Lucian, I just watched you tear through Vayne like he was made of paper. I’ve seen you fight before, but that? That was different. That was something else.”His jaw tightened, his eyes flickering to the darkened corners of the ruins, as if expecting something—or someone—to emerge. “It
Blood moon's curse Chapter 68
The night was thick with the scent of blood and smoke. The battle had raged on longer than expected, and Aria’s strength was waning. Her fingers trembled against the cold stone of the ruined castle walls as she struggled to stay on her feet. Adrian was nowhere in sight. The last thing she had seen before she collapsed was a flash of silver and the wicked grin of their enemy. Then—darkness.A sharp pain tore through her ribs as she gasped awake, her surroundings unfamiliar. Chains rattled against the cold stone floor, and the sharp scent of iron filled her lungs. A prison. But not just any prison—this was his domain. The one place she never thought she’d end up.The torches lining the damp walls flickered with an eerie glow, casting long shadows across the room. She was bound, her wrists shackled above her head, her body aching from wounds she didn’t remember receiving. The air was suffocating, thick with the scent of dark magic. Aria gritted her teeth. She wouldn’t go down like this.
Blood moon's curse Chapter 67: A Blade in the Dark
The war drums thundered in the distance.The air was thick with the scent of metal, the promise of blood hanging between the trees as Aria and her army prepared for battle. The hunters were closing in—Selene had reported their march would reach the stronghold’s borders by sundown.But before the sun could set, the world shifted beneath Aria’s feet.It happened fast. Too fast.One moment, she was issuing orders to the sentinels stationed at the gate, her mind focused on war strategies and defensive positions. The next, a sharp, searing pain pierced her side.She gasped, stumbling forward as warmth bloomed beneath her ribs. A dagger.She barely had time to register the attack before a second strike followed, slashing across her arm. Pain exploded through her senses, her vision blurring as she fell to one knee.Shouts erupted around her, but her attacker moved faster than the guards could react. A strong arm wrapped around her neck, yanking her backward into the shadows.Her body screame
Blood moon's curse Chapter 66: The Gathering Storm
The wind howled through the tunnels of the stronghold, an eerie whisper that sent a chill down Aria’s spine. She stood at the war table once more, staring at the glowing script Aurelis had revealed. Evangeline knows your weakness. The Heart is calling to her. She is coming for you. The words burned in her mind, a warning wrapped in inevitability. They had spent weeks preparing, fighting, and running, but now there was no more time. Evangeline was making her final move. The door creaked open behind her. Lucian entered first, his crimson eyes scanning the dimly lit chamber before settling on her. Kael followed a moment later, his expression unreadable. Selene, Dorian, and Aurelis trailed in after them, their faces marked with the same grim understanding. “The scouts have returned,” Selene said. “It’s worse than we thought.” Aria turned to her, bracing herself. “How bad?” Selene set a parchment down on the table, unrolling it to reveal hastily drawn battle formations. “Evangel
