"The guards in the Royal Court are still under Jade's spell. ", Rey said to Seraphina."What do we do?", Lucius asked, his voice tense.Seraphina took a deep breath, her resolve firm. "We need to free the guards. That's our first step in confronting Jade.""How does this get us any close to finding Jade?", Rey asked. "If we have to confront her, she needs to be close by.""I can feel her magic. She's not far from the capital", Seraphina replied, closing her eyes and concentrating. "She will find us""We can't risk revealing our location, though", Lucius said. "Deucalion might be tracking us""Oh, they most definitely know where we are. They have always known our location", Seraphina said."I can't sense them anywhere close by", Rey added. "They must be hiding their presence to fool us."Seraphina nodded. "That's a smart move on their part. The fact that they have not attacked us until now shows that there is something else at play.""They want us to fight amongst ourselves and become

Rey turned back, a smile playing on her lips. "Not at all. Everything's fine."Lucius looked around, concern etched on his face. "I'm not sure what's wrong, but I know it is my duty to protect the pack and you, so if something is troubling you please tell me"Rey stopped walking, facing Lucius with an inquiring gaze. "We'll deal with whatever comes up as it comes. I'm worried, but I also trust that our pack will face this together.""Everything is happening so fast, most our friends are hurt or still under compulsion. I can't even begin to fathom how we'll save the realm or stop the war" , Lucius said."We have to keep moving forward" Rey said. "If we don't, we won't even have a chance at saving the pack."As they walked into the house, Luna walked up to them and smiled ever so subtly to conceal her worry."Welcome, the two of you need to see this", Luna said.Lucius and Rey quickly exchanged glances and then accompanied Luna to a room where they found a patch of skin with a tattoo of

Weeks had passed and things remained calm, too calm and it made the members of the Crimson Pack anxious. Seraphina had left to rendezvous with Hyperion and Cersei and some of the mages had left with them.Asher had gone on a tracking mission with Alpha Magnus to recover the supposed remains of Black Bourne and no one had heard from them in days but it was expected as the pack had agreed not to break silence by communicating with one another until they returned.So they had no way of knowing if Alpha Magnus and Asher had found their targets or not. What begun as a whiff of anxiety was slowly morphing into worry as time dragged on.Lucius was standing in front of the mirror, tugging at the collar of his shirt with a grimace."Are you okay?" Rey asked."Yes." He replied, turning around to face her. "But I'm nervous.""Why?""We are spread too thin, the fact that the Lycans aren't trying to make a move is even more terrifying. It means they know exactly how much they can get away with." H

Rey and Luna decided it was time to return to Silverwood, as their concerns about the situation with the dark mages and the Lycans grew stronger. They felt that Hyperion wasn't being fully transparent and that Seraphina's safety couldn't be entrusted to him.As they made their way out of the mansion and towards their horses, Luna raised a question about informing Lucius of their plans. Rey hesitated, considering the weight of his existing worries about the dark mages, the Lycans, and the missing Asher and Magnus."He has a lot on his plate right now," Rey replied, her hand on the reins of her horse as they reached the stables. "I'm sure he's concerned about the situation with the dark mages, the Lycans, and especially Asher and Magnus."Luna nodded in understanding, "You're right. He's got enough to handle at the moment. Let's focus on gathering more information and returning to Silverwood safely."With a determined nod, Rey mounted her horse, Luna doing the same. They shared a glance

Rey and Luna remained curious as to what Seraphina meant when she said that Hyperion had a mission and so they decided to confront her."What do you mean by Hyperion has a mission to finish?" Rey asked."There is something you have not told us yet, don't you think that at this point we should know all these things?" Luna asked."Well you should know these things", Seraphina sighed. "Hyperion and I used to be lovers, ages ago""Well that was an unexpected twist, how didn't we notice?"Seraphina shrugged."I guess I was one of those you wouldn't notice until it's pointed out to you." She said, "We were lovers, yes, but it fell to pieces after he joined the Lycans""Hyperion always seemed awfully different from the other Lycans. During our first encounter he could have killed us but he didn't. I always found it odd but it seems I wasn't the only one who noticed this about him", Luna said."What is all this about?", Rey asked. "Who is Hyperion and why was he your lover?, its all so loosel

Alpha Magnus and Asher followed the trail from the descriptions the had, it led to them to a plain that was filled with lush vegetation and no trees.“This is quite the view", Asher said as he walked along and absorbed the scenery.“Well, I’m not sure why we are here but we need to make sure that this isn’t a mistake”, Alpha Magnus replied. “You think that there could be something else, maybe like an ambush??”, Inquired Asher.“Things have been off for the past couple of months, its almost like there is someone that has carefully planned for the events that unfolded", Alpha Magnus replied. “That is the real enemy, one that has made pawns of all of us and still continues to do so"Asher nodded his head as the walked along the grassy plain. They scanned around for any signs of black thorn and/or his wolves."Can you smell that?", Alpha Magnus asked Asher as they walked on."It may be faint but I can smell the remnants of adrenaline and struggle. There was definitely a battle that occur

"How could this have happened?", Rey said to Luna as they both slouched their shoulders in defeat."It doesn't make sense, nothing makes sense", Luna replied. Luna seemed unsure of what to say and how to reply, the events of the past few months had happened so fast and were devastating to the Crimson pack and the realm. It all begun with the mysterious disappearance of Alpha Magnus and Asher, and then what followed were a series of catastrophes."The Capital..., the Alpha king...", Rey said as tears streamed down her cheek."The Capital is lost..., it is all gone", Lucius said as he walked in on them. "The pack is all but defeated and we have no idea how many survivors are left"Rey's heart ached as she stared at the remnants of their once-thriving pack, her eyes still moist from the tears she had shed. Luna wrapped an arm around her Rey in an effort to console her.Lucius, paced back and forth in the room, his brows furrowed with worry. "We need to regroup, find any survivors, and ass

The events of the past week had left deep scars on her Rey and sleep had become a torment she couldn't escape.The anxiety attacks had become more frequent and each time it's effects were more profound.

Rey's mind was trapped in a relentless cycle of images from the last few weeks. The burning buildings, the screams of the pack members, and the relentless onslaught of the Lycans haunted her every night.

The duo mysteriously vanished, the pack was heavily affected by this twist of events."I knew that this was a trap"

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

"You need to stop Jade. We can't keep doing this. Please", Seraphina said to Jade."Please?Isn't it a bit too late for that? This is such a wrong time for this and here you are in my way again like old times. You relish these opportunities don't you?", Jade taunted. She was was so visibly taken over by the darkness that it distorted her face."I never stood in your way", Seraphina calmly replied. "YesYou can't stand in my way. I have always been more powerful than you and you can't do anything about that. You can't stop me!!!!!I am stronger than you and I will kill you", Jade said."When did we come to this?We used to be a whole", Seraphina said as she brought out her pendant. "Deep down we never stopped being a whole"Jade looked at the Pendant and she paused, she remembered Jade, in a momentary lapse of the darkness that consumed her, looked at the pendant that Seraphina held aloft. The memories of their shared past, of a time when their father, Herod, had given them identical

Rey and Deucalion battled on and Rey struggled on but Rey found herself loosing the duel. Deucalion used his chains to keep her away and she struggled to get in."You are no challenge to me, little one", Deucalion said. "You are way in above your head and you came alone""What do you think imthe fate of a lone wolf is?That omega that moves alone, what do you think it's fate is", Deucalion asked."That would be accurate, but haven't you heard? I am no no omega. I am an Alpha and one thing about an Alpha is that he always has his pack", Rey said as Luna charged in with a deop kick on Deucalion, he staggered back as he grunted in pain as Hyperion and Seraphina rushed in too. "I am not alone", Rey said."You??An Alpha??, what sorcery is this?", Deucalion asked.Deucalion, seething with anger, turned his gaze toward Hyperion, his former ally. "Hyperion, you dare betray me? A coward's move," he sneered, chains crackling as he prepared for another assault. "Or maybe this has always been

"What do you mean by I am the leader now?", Rey asked."It is all about you, you are the key to all of this and you have become the alpha. You have become the true reason that we have a fighting chance and you have made tjing such different for us. You have been the difference between the two sides", Lucius said.Rey tried protesting further as she looked around but she saw that everyone seemed to approve. "I can't lead, I am not a leader""But you have been subconsciously doing it, you have been leading for a long time now without realising it", Seraphina said."I don't know", Rey replied."Just accept it, we don't have much time for uncertainties. I will need you to trust me", Lucius said."I trust you", Rey replied. Although she was still visibly confused and didn't quite accept."Then you shall lead us into battlefield", Seraphina said.Rey nodded and looked at the map, she decided to trust Seraphina's words. She decided to let go of everything. All her worries and all her doubts

Jade looked at the Prince who had finally woken up from his sleep."Your highness, you are awake.Just in time for the grand finale. You are gonna be part of the climax to a two thousand year old story. Isn't that fantastic?", Jade said as she laughed.The prince looked around as he tried to process where he was. His vision was still a bit blurry and his head spun like he had a hangover."Don't worry about it, you have no idea where you are because enough have never been here. As a matter of fact, you are very far from home. You are where it all ends and today shall mark the beginning of the end for the world as you know it", Jade said in a corny voice."Jade...Stop monologuing to the prince", Deucalion said. "What is the status report Argon and his forces?""They have been thoroughly defeated and Argon is dead", Jade said non challantly."What did you just say?",Hyperion said as he tried to understand what Jade was saying. "Argon was killed in battle?.That is impossible", Hyperion r

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. "You may be part Lycan but you will need more than t

"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. He had always thought that Lucius was the mad and suicidal one and he never imagined himself making such a decision but now that he was In the moment, he didn't seem to mind. He felt an unusual feeling of Satisfaction. The two armies collided and the battle was intense, but the advance of Argon's forces was greatly slowed down by the presence of all the traps and trenches that the first company had laued down. 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. "But something feels off""Most of the inhabitants in these regions have fled", Genos said. "No...Something else is wrong but I can't place my hands on it. Keep the company alert.", Magnus said. Magnus patrolled the area with Genos who was confused as to why Magnus was so worked up."What exactly are you looking for?", Genos asked curiously."This place...Everything about is wrong. What is west of this place?", Magnus asked."The Sleep mountains", Genos replied as he looked at the map. "It is extremely rocky and difficult to navigate""And the East?", Magnus asked again as he listened intently. "The Cas
