Darkness burst before Sebastian could strike, severing the cursed ground and once again isolating us."Redemption doesn't save the damned," Cassandra said in a chilly, hateful voice.And I knew—he was battling for us—not for atonement as fire and darkness mingled.Not now, not ever—I am not backing down.Amber eyes burning with stubborn fire, Dax's voice was sharp and relentless. Claws extended, blood splashing down his arms, he held his ground without flinching.Dark threads erupted, splintering the earth, striving to tie him, but he struck first, savagely precisely cutting through them."you're bleeding!" I yelled, flames shaking at my fingers, but he stayed still.Sebastian cursed, sword flashing, lethal and exact. "We cannot maintain this line on our own!!"Dax's breath stopped, but he rushed forward, shattering the cursed fighters with claws blazing with unrelenting will.Fire blazing stronger, scorching through black bonds, I rushed with him, driving the twisted troops back.Nev
Cassandra laughed low, dark and hollow. I'm rewriting destiny; I'm not bending it.Dark runes fired, creating old symbols across the land ripped by war, lightning shattering the storm-choked heavens.Dax let out a snarl and narrowed golden eyes. "What are you??"Though lethal, Cassandra's voice softened, almost intimate: "I was chosen... just like her." She pointed towards me, her eyes sharp. But when she battles fate, I welcomed it.Sebastian swore, blade shaking, awareness showing up on his face."The prophecy... it was about us not only." His voice was low and raspy with comprehension.Cassandra gave a sly grin. It never was.I shoved down the cursed mark, fire blazing furiously as black magic surged hotter. "What did you do"?She Hissed, "You're asking the wrong question." "It's not what I did... it's what you're still to become."Ronan appeared, sword drawn, coldly furious eyes blazing. "Enough of puzzles." What is your desired?Cassandra coiled her evil power gently. "To provide
Fire burning, I pushed forward, then Ronan grabbed my arm to restrain me." Let me go!" I cried out, fighting against him."You'll die!" said His voice was angry and urgent. "We all will if you breach formation."Dax battled valiantly, slicing through adversaries with blood stinging claws.Sebastian's sword hit true, holding the left flank; breath was labored but relentless.Fire burning hotter, I blasted through cursed bonds, yet the cursed mark tightened, saps my power."We are surrounded!" Ronan yelled with grey eyes ablaze. Fall back now!Dark tendrils burst before we could gather, splintering the battlefield and driving us even farther apart."You can't win... when the shadows have already claimed you," Cassandra said, her voice twisted and icy and victorious.And I understood—the conflict in the shadows was just starting—as flames and shadows met."We cannot revert... not after what has happened."Dax had a quiet but forceful voice, and his amber eyes gleamed with unspoken will.
My voice was keen yet strained, flames raging pushing the dark monsters back.Dark runes burst before we could gather, splintering the ground and ensnaring us in a web of burning power.From the shadows, a twisted, familiar voice filled with frigid pleasure.You never were supposed to follow this road.And as darkness swept in, I understood—the only road forward was the one unknown.They look to you—lead them.Tension flowing from every line of Dax's battle-worn physique, his voice was harsh and forceful, amber eyes flashing with raw anger, his claws flexing as he moved forward.Though doubt gnawed at the margins of my thoughts, I tightened my fists and flames fluttered gently. "I asked for nothing like this."Neither of them did. His voice changed, but determination never faltered. Either they will follow you or fall without you.Eyes hollowed by loss and conflict, the surviving Crescent Moon fighters looked damaged and tired.Ronan moved forward, his damaged face contorted in a mixt
Scarred and battle-weary, restless with whispered misgivings, the soldiers surged Ronan walked, his scarred face contorted with weary defiance, while Dax moved like fire, amber eyes flashing, protecting from the shadows."They get scared." Sebastian spoke steadily, his palm resting on the hilt of his sword. And dread makes them perilous. "You believe they will turn on me?” My voice was low, strained, but steady.Sebastian's eyes never waver. "Fear becomes blame more quickly than you could possibly know."From behind Ronan's voice snapped: "We're still fighting because of her." His voice dropped sharply and carried bitterness. "Don't act as though the prophecy isn't killing us."Dax moved forward, claws extending, his face sharp. "Enough," said His voice demanded and was dangerous, like thunder. You want to challenge her? fight me first.Tension tore over the camp, fire blazing at my hands across my chest." STAND down." Like made-of- steel, my voice sounded solid and definitive, slic
"We fall either together or fight together."Whispers swirled, mistrust flying from shadowy features flickering in the firelight."How long until the prophecy claims her?” The voice of a renegade emerged, darkly suspicious. "How long till our next sacrifice is due?"Sebastian's icy-blue eye sharpened, palm tightened on his sword. "You are ready for battle? Against the actual adversary.Dark tentacles sprang out, splintering the cursed earth and driving us back before anybody could reply." They have located us." Dax swore; his voice was taut, prepared for fight.Fire blazing, I shot forward, cutting over the whirl of shadows. Though the cursed brand burned fiercely, I resisted falling.As shadow-forged creatures emerged, ruthless and cruel, warriors collided, fire and steel clashed.Sebastian's sword chopped down foes with merciless efficiency, striking true, lethal and exact.Dax's claws tore through amber eyes blazing, fiercely battling with wild ferocity, defending me without thoug
Twisted laughter rang from Cassandra, emerald-green eyes shining with merciless success."You think sacrifice alters fate?" she screamed, black magic charging. You were always going to tumble.Fire blazed, evil magic broke, and the cursed earth shook, separating widely as Ronan disappeared into the flames."Protect them... no matter the cost," he said last, echoing over the flaming air.And I understood—some sacrifices never intended to be forgotten—as darkness consumed the battlefield.One cannot escape fate.Like a curse carved into my soul, Cassandra's words rang icy and victorious. Fire burning through my veins, the cursed brand burned hotter, its unrelenting draw intensifying with every breath.Dax held my arm, amber eyes burning with need and will. Stay with me, Zaia; resist it!As Sebastian approached, his icy-blue eyes steady yet troubled, his sword shone, carved marks faintly shimmering. "The prophecy hasn't claimed you yet but it's close."I closed my hands and felt fire sha
"She is on her way." Dax snarled, amber eye fixed on the oncoming black powers. " Prepare.""We run this time not here." Even as power shot wildly through my veins, my voice sounded calm, sharp. The Blood Moon is not just a sign, however. Sebastian's voice fell, marked with caution. "Her full power will be unlocked with this."Then we apply it first. Dax's claws blazed, fire and rage coursed through him. "Before her does."Fire burning hotter, I pushed shadows away, reversing the attraction of the cursed mark. "I'm not letting her decide how this ends."Emerging twisted and victorious, emerald-green eyes flashing with terrible power was Cassandra. "You ought to have ran while still able."Dax surged forward, claws ablaze, hitting powerfully, driving her back. Sebastian cut between adversaries created from shadows, like a storm, sword flashing.The Blood Moon is not stoppable. Cassandra snorted, power flickering across her body. "It was always meant to rise".Flames erupted, fire and
The earth shattered, black magic scorching, power bending into hideous creatures born of hatred and revenge.Defensive line, then! Dax screamed, savagely battling with primordial savagery through foes.Sebastian hit quickly, sword blazing, mercilessly reducing cursed powers.The cursed mark blazed hotter suddenly, fire and darkness entwining to release a long- buried ability."This is what you were meant to be," the icy, relentless voice of The Goddess said. "The flame neither controllable nor extinguished."I shot forward, fire blazing hotter, searing over the black bound dragging us back."I decide what I become." My voice came sharp and rebellious. Not destiny... not you.The earth shook, fire and fate tangling into a burning frenzy.Cassandra snarled, emerald-green eyes shining. You will burn away. " Even yours, all flames die."Not this one; I burned hotter, fire ablaze with great intensity. "This fire never dies."The battleground flared hotter, shadows winding down deeper as co
And I realized as fire burnt brighter shadows twisted deeper and doom closed in that it was.Rising implied going against fate itself."Time is running out."The voice of the Goddess bellowed, ancient and relentless, piercing the cursed air like fate's last sentence across the burning heavens.Heart hammering with furious determination, I closed my fists and fired blazingly at my fingers.Amber eyes blazing, claws contracted, body taut, ready to protect to the very last, Dax walked next to me. Let us then wrap up this.Sebastian's sword shone, engraved letters brilliant, icy-blue eye fixated on the black horizon. We were born for this time.I raised my chin, flames blazingly visible. We write our destiny—that of death attempting.The earth shook, black markings lighting, splintering the cursed territory, power shooting fiercely.Sebastian cursed, knife poised, eyes alert, the seal cracking. "We have running time running short."A brilliant flash shot suddenly, whirling darkness and fi
The earth burst suddenly, black tentacles dragging upward bound beasts in twisted chains."Get free! “I yelled, fire raging, searing over the horrible bond keeping us back.Fire blazing hotter drove the evil powers to withdraw temporarily as flames collided with shadows.A deep, threatening growl tore through the shattered quiet.From the shadows came the Alpha Slayer Veyra, scarred, twisted, and ruthless one we most dreaded."Did you believe you could flee me? “Her voice was icy, piercing as steel, emerald-green eyes ablaze with terrible wrath.Dax bared his teeth, amber eyes fixed on her, poised for killing or dying attempting.As Veyra attacked, claws opened, teeth bared, the earth shook and splinters tore underfoot.Sebastian pounced, sword shining, deadly precisely intercepting her initial stroke.I started, fire blazing ferociously searing over the terrible bonds keeping the group together."This finishes right now."Dax screamed, claws fighting hers, their powers meeting in a le
You believe you could substitute him? “Emerging twisted and victorious, Cassandra had emerald-green eyes blazing. "Your future belongs to me... and so does the past."Cassandra's voice soared, icy and lethal, darkness surged, power erupting, splintering the ruins." Legs aren't earned; they're taken."And I realized as fire blazed brighter shadows twisted deeper and destiny tightened its grip.Everything's heritage came from the Alpha."If rescuing you results in losing everything... therefore so be it.Her voice shook, strong yet broken, full of rebellious love. Tall and damaged but relentless, my mother stood with fire in her eyes.Not at all. You are incapable of doing this. Heart pumping with desperation, I rushed forth, fire flashing brightly at my fingers.Dax's claws flexed, amber eyes blazing, body stiff, ready to attack. "We will find another route."Sebastian cursed, sword shining, engraved images blazing with lethal intent. We are pressed for time. It is hers. She made the
The room shook, black letters shining, old magic churning under the consecrated earth.Elder Lyara growled, emerald-green eyes icy, too far gone. "Your disobedience calls for everything to be threatened."It's your lies that threaten us." I raised my chin, fire burning hotter. "We still stand even with you."The air thickened suddenly, power flickering wrapping us in black tentacles."You were never the saviour," Malric's voice twisted, old and brutal. You were the weapon created for our fight.Memories exploded—lost relationships, bloodstained pacts, a destiny locked in shadows."You... used us." My voice quipped, anger scorching the binding pull of the cursed brand.Dax screamed, breaking free, dashing across the black confines, amber glance ablaze with wrath.Sebastian cursed, sword blazing, slashing over the cursed symbols, you deceived us all.Lyara snarled, black magic flickering, emerald-green glance shining with success always planned to end this way.Flames burst out, fire an
"Watch me," my voice screamed strong and relentless. I was intended to rise, not to be rescued.Silver-crimson flames burst, reversing the cursed runes and driving the shadows back.Cassandra sneered, power wavering but lethal, simply postponing the inevitable. "This isn't over."Dax rushed, amber eyes sharp, making a last, terrible attack.Sebastian followed, breaching the remaining defenses with deadly accuracy using blade cutting.The cursed heavens broke, the battleground burnt brighter, shadows splintered, fire and destiny collided.The voice of the Goddess became chilly and victorious."You have risen but you are still bound."And I realized—as fire blazed hotter—power surged, and destiny spun down more deeply.Ascending was only the start.You believe I have no idea what you have done?''Sebastian's voice was harsh, icy-blue, his sword still discolored from the previous fight.Dax moved between us, amber eyes blazing, claws extending with protective might. "Be back off, Sebasti
Dax advanced, amber eyes sharp, claws flexing, protective and uncompromising. "She is more than her blood."I tightened my hands, flames flickering, heart thumping with stubborn will. "I choose who I become."The cursed mark blazed hotter, fire exploding as shadows twisted in the distance, offering only disaster.The wolves gathered, battle-weary but fiercely loyal, scarred features revealing past enmity."Why ought we to obey her? The voice of a renegade snapped, damaged features twisted with uncertainty. She is cursed, marked by destiny.Scarred but determined Ronan moved ahead. "We follow because she fights for us."Tension boiled, trust brittle, fate weighing on every one of us.The ground shook suddenly, black symbols blazing to fracture the wretched planet underneath.Shadows twisted to create lethal forms; claws gleamed; fangs bared."They have discovered us!"Dax screamed, claws ablaze, rage burning. " defensive line—now!"''Sebastian pulled his sword, engraved in brilliant, ic
The morning blazed more brilliantly, fire and light bursting over the terrible heavens for the first time.Sebastian sheathed his sword, icy-blue stare constant. "We have a chance if we fight clever."Dax came forward, amber eyes fixed on me, sharp and protective. "We are not stopping right now.""No." My voice rang firm and clean. "We get up."The earth shook suddenly, black magic igniting splinters underneath.The cursed heavens darkened, a faint, lethal hum pulsing across the atmosphere.Sebastian's voice became sharp, knife ready. "We still have work ahead of us."And I realized as fire blazed hotter hope sprung to life and destiny spun closer.The daybreak was a fresh fight just about to start, not a cure-all solution."You should face your actual nature now."The voice of the Goddess rang, cold and relentless, over the emptiness of fire and darkness.Heart pumping with fear and rebellion, I stumbled back and felt fire flickering faintly at my fingers.Dax rushed forward, amber e
I pushed forth, heart thumping with clear intent, flames flickering weakly at my fingers. "They are depending on us."Scarred but driven, the surviving wolves roused, hope blazing across their tired features.The pack gathered, wounds gushing, but fire still blazing in their souls.Ronan emerged with stern, scarred fists tightly closed and a harsh voice. We have lost much too much.But not everything, Dax snarled, amber eyes sharp, guarding me fiercely. Still, we still have each other.Sebastian's voice sharpened, strategic yet tense: "The pack cannot survive another attack." "We need a stronghold right now."I moved ahead, flames lighting more brilliantly. "then we locate one."Hope burned even though it was flickering, a little flame surrounded by gloom.The wolves stirred, distrust still there, previous betrayals acute as old wounds resurfaced.You expect us to follow her?The voice of a renegade broke, a scarred face contorted with uncertainty. "She has cursed."Dax opened his teet
