GABRIELS POV,

For the last 2 days, Gabriel has been busy getting to know the city and its people. It is clear to him that there is a big difference between the poor and the rich. Unfortunately, everyone seems to be too scared to talk to him. He will have to talk to Angus tonight and figure out a strategy to learn more about what the people of Dandion actually think. He puts on some decent clothes for the dinner because Lord Midas has a dinner for the nobility of Dandion. Gabriel looks in the mirror and sighs, his eyes seem sad and not vibrant like normal. He really misses Noelle so much that it hurts.

It is hard to concentrate on his task here when all he can think of is his beautiful wife. He wants to know if she is okay and what she is doing right now. If only he could send her a mind message. Just hearing her sweet voice would already make him feel so much better. He takes another look in the mirror and sighs again, it is time to man up and focus. He straightens his pos

When he walks into the Inn, Angus is already there. Gabriel looks around and the whole Inn is filled with people. Angus notices him coming in and nods to someone at the door, who locks it.Angus stands on a table in the middle and scrapes his throat, "Welcome everyone, I called you here because you all represent parts of Dandion. With the disappearances and murders going on I felt it was time to inform you of something. I am here without permission of Lord Midas, and he will not agree with what I am about to tell you. I have been to the Sea Realm a few days ago and saw with my own eyes what Hades has done to it. There is not a building, or a living soul left. The Sea Realm is destroyed. You have been told that you are not in danger of the war with Hades, but this is false information. We are all in danger and the disappea

    WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CAN CONTAIN TRIGGERING AND VIOLENT CONTENTHOLLY’S POV,Holly just said goodbye to Gabriel and heads back inside to discuss plans with Nolan and Zeus. The big table feels empty with just the 3 of them sitting there. They are all silent for a while and lost in their own thoughts. Zeus breaks the silence first, “I have been thinking how to reclaim an advantage now that Hades knows about the dragons. We should use our time to develop new weapons or something. Anyone any ideas?”Holly frowns, “Mmm we have a lot of different ordinary weapons, but they won’t do much good against demons. If there was only some kind of spell to capture light magic so we could make bombs and weapons with the light on them. Then the common soldiers would have a chance against a demon and the sky army can drop the bombs from the air.”Zeus looks at her intrigued, “That is actually a really good idea. I don’t t

  • Sacrificed To Her King   Silence is never good

    HOLLY’S POV,It takes Holly hours to calm down after the bomb that Nolan dropped on her. She knew he would get sick of her at some point but it still came like a shock. She thought she didn’t have a heart left to give him but why does it hurt so much then? She can’t bear the thought of him being with someone else. Which means she must love him so why can’t she just give him the version of herself that he needs. She thinks about it the whole night but the answer is just as unclear in the morning as it was the night before. With a sigh, she gets up from bed and decides to go find Zeus. There is something she has to discuss with him.She finds Zeus studying the glow worms in the caves.“What are you doing?” She asks.Zeus jumps up because he didn’t hear her coming in. “I am trying to figure out a way to transform the light magic from the glow worms into a spell so I can make light weapons.”

    HOLLY’S POV,Holly walks into the meditation cave and looks around unsure. Such serene surroundings are not really her thing. Just hearing waterdrops gives too much space to think and she has learned to cope by keeping herself distracted. She takes a deep breath and tells herself to suck it up because she decided she wants to face her demons so she can’t go back now when already the silence makes her uncomfortable.Zeus is putting lit candles all around the cave and just leaves some space in the middle. He sits down and she sits down facing him. She knows her eyes are full of fear, but she has suppressed these memories for so long. Zeus takes her hands in his and his calm eyes are the only comfort she has at the moment. “So, to begin the meditation all you have to do is focus on the flame of one of the candles and listen to the water drops. I will be there any step of the way, you will hear my voice and I can pull you out if it gets too intense, oka

She feels calm and relieved because the distance between them was dreadful. Nolan softly puts her down and takes her face in his hands. His ember eyes look at her warmly, “Zeus told me what you did. I am so proud of you Holly. How do you feel?”Holly gives him a little smile, “I feel calm, hopeful, and ready to move on towards a better future.”A shimmer of hope sparks in Nolan his face when he hears her words and he replies, “Why did you decide to face your fears after all this time?”Holly softly strokes his face, “I think I realized that I needed it for me but also for us. The thought of losing you was much scarier than the thought of facing my demons. I love you, Nolan. We are meant for each other and you deserved the full version of me, not just the broken p

Zeus already comes back and waves them over, “Well come on! Follow me.”Holly and Nolan quickly get up and walk after Zeus to the meeting room. Zeus is standing at the table staring at some brightly shining objects. Zeus picks up a sword that is shining so bright it is hard to look at.“I finally found the right incantation to transfer the light from the glow worms into the swords. I did the same for spears.”Holly walks towards the last object which is a black ball, “What is that?”Zeus quickly holds her back, “Careful, that is a light bomb. I mixed light magic with gunpowder so when the bomb hits a surface it becomes an e

In the first years after the war, not many people came to Liberum to learn about magic. But with the years of peace growing so did people’s trust and I am happy to say that Liberum is now known as a place of magic and wonders.

    NOELLE'S POV,It is a few hours later and bells are ringing through the city to announce the beginning of the funerals for all the lost lives. At first, we wanted to make a burning woodpile for every single body but then we decided it would be more meaningful to send everyone off on small plateaus at the lake that leads to the sea in Dandion. Everyone worked together the last couple of hours to make floating plateaus for all the bodies.I leave the castle to go to the lake with Gabriel. Everywhere I go people look at me with big eyes and they either bow or clap for me. I quickly gained the image of the heroine that saved the world in the hours that have passed. Tales of how I destroyed the army with magic spread and they even sound unbelievable to me while I know that I did it. I walk to the front of the lake where Luna, Holly, Julias, and Nolan are already waiting. The sun is shining and the only thing I hear is

Gabriel takes me in his arms and holds me tight, “I am so happy you are okay,” he says relieved.We all look down at Hades who is still fighting to get rid of the glowing roots. “What should we do with him?” I ask the rest.Holly looks at Hades full of hate, “You should give him a vision of something terrible and let him die thinking about that.”Gabriel coldly replies, “I have no problem with that.”Faith sounds determined when she says, “No. We can’t just kill him because he will find a way to come back. To be rid of him for good I must heal him and his evil.”We are all quiet when she walks to him and sits down at his head. For the first time I see fear in Hades his eyes and he screams, “No, No, No, not her! Just kill me."Faith put

    NOELLE POV,I feel nothing when I explode the dark humans and demons in the tunnel with purple light. I walk outside the tunnel and notice the inner wall being breached. Purple light radiates off my whole body and I levitate myself above the castle. I must look like a bright purple star and people drop their weapons to look at me. I open up my mind to all creatures of the Under Realm and give them visions that they are being chased by their worst fear. The trick works effectively on the dark humans, and they all start running out of the inner part of the city screaming.My voice echoes through the city when I command my people and the dragons to hide inside buildings. I hold up my arms and call out to all the water in the city to obey me. Water starts to rise up from sewers and the small rivers. It all flows back to me and forms a big wall of water up into the sky. I put my hands forward and let a tsunami carry out the demons, stone giants, and fire creatures with full for

    NOELLE’S POV,Gabriel immediately takes charge and gives an encouraging speech to the people. They all seem to realize that it is better to go down fighting for a better world than living in Hell. Everyone has a determined look in their eyes and seems to calmly be waiting for the doors to breach. I decide to take the small moment of peace to go look for Thorn. I find him looking much better and luckily Faith tells me she will be able to repair his wing, but he just needs rest.“I don’t need rest; I need to fight with you mistress!” Thorn says in my mind with a stubborn voice. I walk to him and give him a kiss on his snout, “You have protected me fiercely I couldn’t be prouder. Now I need you to take it easy so we can maybe live to fight another day.”Thorn follows me with grumpy eyes when I walk away but he obeys my command. I walk towards Luna who is talking with Zeus. Zeus seems very riled up making big movements with his ar

    NOELLE’S POV,As soon as we fly over the wall it feels like I wound up in a storm. Fire and weapons fly around me. I see light and explosions everywhere and it is immediately complete chaos. I can feel the impact of every blow that lands on Thorns armor. I look around to find Hades but all I can see are demons, dark humans, and creatures of Hell. Hades must have put up some illusion so he and the 4 horsemen can stay out of sight and let the rest of the army do most of the fighting.I bite my lip in frustration because there goes my plan B to take out the most powerful play-ers to end the fight. I let Thorn burn demons and dark humans in the field with dragon fire, but I notice it gets heavier for him by the minute. I don’t know how much damage the armor can hold. Angels are dropping light bombs and fighting flying creatures in the air. I see many of the Under Realm army being blown up but every hole we make seems to be filled up with new soldiers just as

    NOELLE’S POV,I hear Gabriel call my name somewhere in a distant place of my mind, but I can’t take my eyes off Hades. I stare at him and then I realize what is wrong, Donna is standing next to him, and she is also smiling at me. Shivers go through my body, and I want to scream to Ga-briel that something is wrong, but I can’t speak. The amulet around my neck starts to get warm and levitates me up in the air. It feels like something is trying to pull my insides out of me. I start screaming from pain and I can see purple light flowing out of me into Hades. I keep screaming until the pain stops and the last of the light flows out of me. I fall back into the ground hard and my body shakes from the impact.For some reason no one from Dandion seems to know what is going on because all around me is darkness. The only thing I can see is Hades and Donna smiling at me. Hades makes a tiny flame of purple fire in his hands and starts laughing.&ldquo

  • Sacrificed To Her King   So it begins

    NOELLE’S POV,Everyone around me is looking pale and serious as the army comes closer and closer. The grounds seem to shake from all the marching soldiers and the war drums echo in my ears. They stop marching about 50 meters from the wall. The war drums become louder and they all start to shout battle screams in a language I don’t understand. Luna nods at a soldier on the wall and he walks towards a massive horn stationed on the wall. The horn blows a strong and vibrant call through the whole city. I can see everyone take their positions and with de-termined faces, they seem to say that they are ready for whatever comes at them.Then the war drums become silent and the front row of dark humans and soldiers starts run-ning to the wall. I can now see Donna standing a few rows behind Hades. As soon as the sol-diers walk into the magical shield barrier they explode into light. Everyone on the wall cheers because the spells actually worked. I hear running foot

He is running to-wards me but as soon as he sees me, he stops. We just stare at each other for a moment and then he runs towards me and swoops me in his arms. I can’t even begin to describe how good it feels to have his arms around me and smell his scent. He sits down on the floor holding me and I can hear his heart beating really fast. I take his face in my hands and put my fore-head against his, tears of joy travel down my cheeks. I look into his beautiful blue eyes and sigh with happiness. He softly strokes my cheek brushing the tears away and puts his lips on mine. I lean into his embrace and enjoy the sensation of his lips on mine again. I wish this moment would last forever.I look into his eyes again and I hear him say in my head, “I have missed you so muc
