As Rey lay on the ground, her body battered and bruised, Baratheon towered above her, relishing in his moment of triumph. He sneered at her, his voice laced with sadistic satisfaction.

She refused to accept defeat, drawing upon the last reserves of her strength. Her eyes flickered with determination as she looked up at Baratheon, a spark of defiance in her gaze."I will never give up" Rey retorted, her voice filled with unwavering conviction. "We fight not only for ourselves but for the future that awaits us. And we will not be stopped."Baratheon's laughter filled the air, echoing with mocking amusement. "Your words mean nothing. Your pack is weakened, your alpha lies defeated. There is no future for you here."But Rey refused to let despair consume her. She knew that even in the face of overwhelming odds, they had to stand united. As

Lucius walked through the hall of the temple, everywhere seemed fuzzy and he was with a woman, he could not see her face and he wondered if he was alive."The third room lies before us", she said."We can stop this, we can stop all of this", he replied.She nodded and placed the two scrolls together, she had rolled each of them back up and placed the Sun scroll on top the moon stone. There was a clicking sound and the two scrolls merged and formed a key, the woman proceeded towards the centre of the temple."Lucius....", Rey called out.Lucius opened his eyes and he felt excruciating pain pulsar around his body."Are you okay?", Rey asked as she tried to examine his wounds."Where is he?", Lucius asked."He somehow got away", Rey replied.Leina had also made her down with Rey and had caught up to them, she surveyed the surroundings to make sure Baratheon was truly gone."Can you stand?", Leina asked Lucius. "My legs are broken, with the poison in my body it will take a while for me t

"You okay?", Lucius asked Rey."I see something", Rey said. "They left something for us"Rey's memories guided her to a specific area in the Chamber of Earth. As she approached the spot, a peculiar sensation washed over her. It felt as if the past and present were intertwined, blurring the boundaries of time itself. Stumbling slightly, she steadied herself against the wall and reached out her hand, feeling a tiny space.With careful precision, Rey uncovered a small wooden box concealed within the wall. The box emanated a faint energy, resonating with the ancient powers of the temple. Her heart quickened as she realized this was what Elara, the previous guardian of the temple, had left for her.Excitement flowed through Rey's veins as she opened the box, revealing a letter written by Elara. Rey unfolded the delicate parchment and read the words aloud, her voice echoing in the chamber."A letter to myself, my daughter and my sister ", It read.If you are reading this, it means my time a

It was really beautiful and serene."Impressive view", Lucius began.Rey jerked in fright, she had not noticed his presence and Lucius could tell that she was lost in thought. "How long have you been here?", Rey asked."A few seconds", Lucius replied with a gentle smile. "What?, You are making me nervous", Rey said shyly."Well, I am admiring you.....", Lucius replied. "Thanks, but that isn't why you are here. I can tell", Rey relied tentatively. "Well, I have been wondering about your family. The Volks used to be a Royal family in the capital.

Rey found Luna in their shared den, immersed in a book she was reading. Luna looked up as Rey entered, her eyes filled with curiosity."Rey, what's on your mind?" Luna asked, noticing the serious expression on her sister's face.Rey took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts before speaking. "Luna, I had a conversation with Lucius. He's been wondering about our family, about the Volks. And we've discovered something... something that connects us to a secretive order called the Veiled Serpent."Luna's eyes widened. "The Veiled Serpent? What do they have to do with us?"Rey quickly recounted her conversation with Lucius, explaining the attack on their mother and the mention of the Veiled Serpent's involvement. "Lucius believes that the Veiled Serpent may be linked to the darkness that's plaguing our world. We need to uncover the truth."Luna closed the book she had been reading, her face reflecting a mix of determination and worry. "We can't ignore this, Rey. If there's a chance that th

As Deucalion and the other Lycans gathered for their meeting, Baratheon, addressed the group. His encounter with The Crimson pack had not gone the way the Lycans had hoped and now they knew that they were at an unfavourable position."Brothers, we face a significant challenge," Baratheon began, his gaze sweeping across the room. "Lucius, the Alpha, may have discovered our more intricate dealings in the capital. He has been working alongside Rey, Luna, and their allies, and they suspect our involvement with the Veiled Serpents."Whispers and murmurs filled the room as the Lycans exchanged glances, their expressions a mixture of worry and caution.Baratheon continued, his voice stern. "Our presence in the capital has remained hidden for centuries. The exposure of our true nature and our connection to the Veiled Serpents would bring jeopardize all we have worked for.

Lycaon, his form oozing with the shadows that surrounded him, approached Deucalion with an air of sinister satisfaction. "Deucalion, your schemes are inconsequential. I've spent eons in the dark realms, and my powers have grown beyond your feeble comprehension."Deucalion, maintaining a facade of defiance, questioned, "What dark realms have you ventured into, and what did you see in the dark realm?""This world is but only a fraction of existence. There are realms of gods, demons, beasts and all sorts of monsters that defy your imagination. I have seen the truth of it all and I know that this is all a waste of time.", Lycaon replied. "Welcome back, we have eagerly awaited you", Deucalion said.Lycaon chuckled, a sound that echoed through the chamber. "Time, Deucalion, time has been my ally. In the void between realms, I tapped into the very essence of the shadows. The power that courses through me is ancient, unfathomable, and all-encompassing."As the truth of Lycaon's ascent to dar

Meanwhile Rey, Seraphina and Lucius made their way through the Iron Castle as they searched for the prince but to no avail. They went through several guards and still there were no important leads."Something is wrong", Hyperion said."How?, are we missing something?", Rey asked."Most likely, the castle isnr guarded enough. Are you saying that the prince isn't here?", Seraphina asked. "I'm saying that i doubt he was ever here to begin with, they wouldn't even perform the ritual here. The ritual will be done at world's edge", Hyperion said."Are you sure about this?", Seraphina asked. "It is the only place .....World's edge also happens to be the focal point in this realm during the convergence, it is the point where the main portal will appear and based on Legend, it is the only point with enough energy to pull something Into this realm", Hyperion replied. "Where is world's edge?", Rey asked visibly confused."It is an ancient structure. It was where Elara and Lucian sacrificed

"A hunch?'", Argon said. "You making fun of me?""No I really did follow my hunch because the force that awaited my company at the black sea was too small.They also didn't put up a proper resistance and it didn't help that their leader withdrew early from the battlefield. So I figured that the most plausible reason In such a case was that this location will become ground zero for a major conflict so I decided to mount the corpses of the dead and send them after Deucalion. By now Deucalion would have figured out that he got played and he would have realised that your forces are going to be decimated.", Lucius replied. "You are indeed full of surprises, I would never have imagined such an outcome to this battle. You both are truly impressive and have my commendation. ", Argon said."Well, I'm flattered but it is futile to thank me because you are already dead", Lucius said as he drew his sword."I won't go down easily", Argon said.

"So my question to you really is what kind of man are you?", Lucius asked."Well, there is only one way to find out Lucius. When I have to lay it all down then that is when I will have an answer", Magnus laughed. As he charged towards the incoming army, Magnus couldn't help but smile as he remembered his discussion with Lucius.

Magnus's tactics was working well but the disparity in numbers was too great. The first company had a total force of twenty thousand men while Argons army had a force of nearly a hundred thousand. Slowly but steadily Argon's forces relentlessly threw t

Magnus and his company had arrived at the kesk region, it was a relatively poor area with a massive amount of humans and low bloods."What do you think?", Genos asked Magnus."We shall stay here until further notice. Lucius and his company should have already begun engaging the enemy or they would begin anytime soon. We should be ready in case we need to be backup.", Magnus said.
