Troll Camp

The dark shadows of the night were not demons; they were men. But they were not completely the same type of men that Robah, the river troll, and all their species produced. They appeared more apelike. However, they seemed to walk straight but were hairier than normal, with a stocky, vigorous musculature and pronounced brows and jaws. They wore animal skins and wreaths assembled from the competition they hunted, thus forging the misconception of magical inhabitants in the night.

Andrew and Diana watched each other as they were all surrounded, and though the couple knew they could overpower them in a blur, their curiosity was kicking in, so they didn't fight the cave creatures.

As the leader of cave creatures guided them in the dark, Andrew realised why he had not sighted them creeping up on the camp and why they appeared to materialise from the rocks themselves. They had materialised from the rocks. They were cavemen and cave residents. They now led Robah’s group through rif

    "Milord, she isn't just a vampire, I believe?” The old man frowned before adding, “I can smell powerful earthy energy radiating from her." Calvin said, his misted eyes so heavily lidded and weighed down with wrinkled folds that it was almost like talking to someone asleep, yet he was quite alert.Andrew nodded his head. “Oh yes. Cavin, Diana is a seer as well, and by the way, is there any way you can help us with Tomas, the werewolf?"Cavin nodded and gestured towards the open door. "You've been busy, milord, these past few centuries, I believe?""Don't ask Cavin. Don't ask. Believe me, it's not like I was meaning to turn that dog, he…"Diana raised her brow at him and said, "Seriously, Andrew? We're back with that again?" she intruded on his sentences by rolling her eyes at him as if trying to make her point clear."Okay, okay. You win." Andrew smiled and turned his head towards Cavin.Cavin was surprised. How on earth did this mighty lord smile like that towards his sired woman? Tha

    The cave entertainers took their places on the floor. There were dozens of them. They were dressed as fighters with the armour of beasts. Lion heads and manes, vulture-winged frocks, and ghostly weapons Andrew had never seen before. Strange swords, armours, and javelins.They immersed themselves in war exercises that seemed more like a dance of acrobatics than about brute vigour or strength. They ebbed and spurted like a stream of water; their actions were fluid, not aggressive. They moved through the air as if they were fish drifting in the water. Leafing and twirling, they barraged and protected with such accuracy and confidence as to transfer the act of fighting into a ballet of beauty.Cavin could not see the dance, but he could feel it. He knew it well. He confessed to Andrew, “They were trained by you, milord. Their ancestors were trained by you. The original keeper of the soul.”"I did?" Andrew frowned as he watched the warriors."Yes, milord. You said it yourself back in the 13

    The next day, Diana and Andrew asked Cavin if anyone in his tribe could draw her grandfather's face. Unfortunately, no one in the cave people was skilled enough for the task, so Diana suggested finding Elizabeth.While Cavin and his tribe stayed with the cave dwellers, a messenger brought back bad news.On another front, the Wetland established a camp at Cold Mountain, actively pursuing outlaw trolls and Northern fairies. They put a bounty on Robah's families and rogues in the highlands and mountain hideouts.Rumours spread throughout the South, dabbling in dark sorcery and creating terrifying creatures. Death fairies from a past battle were said to have risen and joined the South's armies. The purpose remained unclear, causing whispers of conspiracy in the wetland territory. In the plain regions, life was simpler, but for those not serving the wetland lords, survival was challenging.Survival was not in the hands of the masters for the snow tribe of fairies and witches. They numbered

    Eliminating a dozen gigantic ferals wasn't typically this straightforward. The warriors among the ferals had honed their skills over decades, making them a formidable force even for an organised group. Meanwhile, Tommy and Diana swiftly rushed to Jenna's side, anxiously checking for signs of life. "Is she dead?" Diana urgently inquired."I don't know, I'm not sure," Tommy responded while the remaining cavewarriors, cautious of a potential follow-up attack, released the confined humans.With a sense of awe, Tommy carefully raised Jenna from the snow, only to be captivated by her stunning appearance. Adorned with ravishing raven locks, heart-red lips, and a mature figure beyond her years, Jenna was like a breathtaking sunset. "Jenna, are you awake?"As Jenna looked into Tommy's eyes, she noticed him standing atop the defeated feral's chest, smiling in her direction. However, his smile faded to dismay upon seeing her confused expression. Jenna then became aware of an unusual sensation i

    When Jenna was fully healed, Cavin ordered them to go to the wetland and gather some information regarding the plan of the south. He told them to be back after tomorrow night and no longer a day, and for what reason he didn't share.The two travelled, Jenna on Tommy's wolf as he galloped towards the wetland.The town of Wetland Pack and its peoples did not have definite boundaries; on its eastern frontiers was the old witch village, whose borders could be more accurately described as boundaries between the nearby Waterland Pack. The town of Wetland and its early dynastic leadership were the first werewolf community to define its borders. Moreover, it was ruled by Alpha George and his son.Later that night, the two entered the town.Tommy has been festering all day. Like a pot of water getting ready to boil over and over again. Maybe if he went for a stroll, it would comfort him, Jenna thought. But after an hour of relentless self-rage, he decided to stroll into the town square. The ni

    The mansion of Alpha George lay in the middle, just downriver from the boundary of Whiteland. They had passed the village without stopping to avoid being recognized by his patrol. Even though their escape with the troll had been days earlier, and though Tommy had grown out his hair and beard with the help of Jenna to avoid being recognised as the heir of Whiteland, Alpha George would certainly recognise him. The Alpha would certainly remember his original intent to rescue his father and sister and would certainly not be merciful, especially when his father was still in prison. In the end, the two decided to go back home and report to Cavin the good news.The old man told Jenna to disguise a group of warriors as human hunters and present them as having killed a fugitive from the Whiteland. They covered dead ferals with Whiteland's scent and brought them to the town. The next day, Tommy and his group arrived at the Wetland River wharf, reporting the abduction following a bureaucratic pr

    Two hours later, Alpha Jefferson's breathing came in gasping, and his body was so painful that even coughing became torture. He was a hundred-year-old werewolf and an Alpha, yet he had never experienced this kind of anguish before. It was uncommon; he was not recovering from the unbearable blows and tortures from the new guard. And right now, his hatred towards the Wetland pack was unmistakable and as clear as the sun, like acid burns from deep within.But nothing hurts more than seeing the love of his life tortured and then drained in front of him. Alpha Jefferson's resentment roared through his mind. While the pain was beyond any nightmare he had before, it was more than madness and an uproar in his soul. Seeing his daughter's unconscious eyes with dry tears on them, he couldn't do anything to ease her pain; he was hopeless and tied up, yet he was immobilised by fury and retaliation.And again, he was tied in with silver handcuffs. The number one foe of werewolves, specially coated

    That evening, Alpha Jefferson was released from his cell with two human guards snatching his arms, and he didn't utter a single word. He noticed that they were, in fact, in a cavern covered with an alloy of silver. The walls and floors were all covered with their bane. No possible rescue would come sooner, and he knew that their pack link didn't work, nor could he give Eve her exact location. Her ability lay dormant, nor was he healing. Somehow, he became hopeless in this hell.Five minutes later, the high guard, Wenally, quickly made her way up the stairs to the prisoner's cell. Outside the door, an armed guard stood, looking anxious. They were afraid of her. Most of these new men were humans with no apparent training or experience fighting supernatural beings. The only reason they were chosen to guard was because of their military background. When they saw her approach, they became even more anxious. “Open the door.” She glared at them. The guards scampered around and bowed their he

    " I… I've come to realize that things aren't quite as black and white as I've been portraying them to be. I don't need to give up something to become someone else. I'm hoping to gain something more. But as long as you were with me. I don't care anymore, Andrew. My grandpappy can wait. In fact, the tenth century can wait. Right?” She looked at him with a sheepish expression.It took him no time to respond affirmatively. His hands glided down her back to her shoulders as they reached his chamber, then he went down her neck back again. "Yes, my love." The corners of his mouth split into a sensuous smile. "Your grandfather can wait." His words kissed the side of her face. “However, I believe you could push yourself even further. You are powerful Diana. Never hold back yourself. Do whatever is necessary to survive.”“Why? Do you want me to be like you?” She exhaled as his hand became entangled in the buttons on the front of her gown. Slowly giving her goosebumps.“You are really similar to

    Diana's heart began to beat again, her lungs began to fill with air, and she took a deep, gasping breath. Slowly, the chill began to melt away from her body, dissipating in the face of the raging river coursing through her, ratcheting up her seer magic a notch. The amazing bliss she felt from his single drop of blood fueled her mind and made her want for more, and she felt like she was drunk on lust. Diana could see everything so clearly now, and at that moment, she wished she could have Andrew with her. Now! Right here, right now!And so she stepped closer, coming to a complete stop in front of Andrew. Then she pushed herself to her toes and grabbed the back of his neck, pulling him against her for a long, passionate kiss. In that kiss was the sweetness of passion, a million loving thoughts condensed into a moment. In that kiss were the promise of years and the sweetness of waiting for real love.She then drew back just as fast as she had come. Diana was aware that people were starin

    Blanca's cheeks were flushed. "I'll be delighted to comply with my lord's wishes." She kissed his cheek once more as she grinned. It had been a long journey, a long adventure, and she had given up hope that she would ever see Dimitri's smile once more...The ladies with the wine approached them, and Blanca whispered to Dimitri, "This area looks like a battle zone, and I can't wait to taste you again." He halted when Elfar groggily waved the ladies over to them. "How is he going to get it ready for a celebration by tonight?" "He was drunk as hell." Blanca wondered as she waved her hand to Elfar, who reciprocated by waving his hands in their direction."The stubbornness of Elfar should never be underestimated. He was more than just a mere wolf. He is my sire demon for a reason.""I get what you're saying. He's just as stubborn as you are!" Blanca spoke with a little smile on her lips as she gave him a sly look. "Don't be concerned. There's no danger of that, my love. My stubbornness wil

    Nirvana, on the other hand, smirked and murmured, "I happen to know that you are killing all of the offspring you have spawned through your wicked younger years," Nirvana said with a smirk and a "tsked."Camellana looked at Danny with a guilty expression on her face.Nirvana went on to say, "After all, you are not the only one that has spies." It turned out to be true. Nirvana had covertly dispatched spies across the hamlets in order to gather information about Camellana's plan.Continuing to dig, Nirvana said, "You are gathering military resources for yourselves to take with you, leaving Redberg Village as a shell of its former self, with its great walls as its sole defense. And I'm not sure what the assembly of the knights had expected you to perform, but I'm sure it's something big, something monumentally important. Despite Sulu's self-assurance and bluster, your very situation was dire. Andrew Norton was led here by my spy, and you are well aware that I am probably the only person i

    Diana made a shaky motion with her head. Several strands of filth dropped from her hair and landed on the dirt floor. Diana then continued to recount all that had occurred earlier, while the others sat there and sobbed as she spoke. The others were so enraged at the traitors that it was understandable that they were infuriated. Even Anna had been questioned about what had transpired, and she proceeded to tell them about her confrontation with Sulu as well, which elicited a gasp from the audience.The elderly lady was deafeningly silent. Diana recognized that she was just as excellent at concealing her feelings as Lucinda was. In addition to being a charismatic leader, she would also be an excellent commander of their troops, as Anna would be.The following morning, Diana, Danny Nirvana, and Elfar, who had recovered from his wounds, arrived in the Redberg Village, which was close to Camellana's villa. As a result, Knight Leo chose to stay for another day at the witches' new cavern, firs

    Elfar had the distinct impression that the ground itself was enraged at them. Massive mountains of loosened rock were falling into the cavern, and the rapid shift of such a large amount of mass was causing the entire area to become unstable. A louder, sharper disturbance could be heard just above their heads, and when Elfar peered up, he noticed fissures appearing in the concrete and stone roof of the tunnel. It was a terrifying sight. Within seconds, the fissures had grown in length and width. Clods of earth spilled out of them, strewing the train rails with their ashes."Run!" Elfar let out a yell. He snatched Anna and Leo's arms once more. "The tunnel is about to collapse! Is it possible for Nirvana to create some gateways, perhaps portals, to allow us all out?" Elfar was the one who inquired."I'm not sure if it's even possible to do so. Lucinda had made certain that her spell was strong enough to prevent anyone from entering or exiting the cavern without her permission. It's not t

    Leo and Anna seemed to smile at their successful accomplishment.When they returned to Diana, they saw that she was barely holding her own against Sulu, but Nirvana was on her side as well.But Anna rushes to the other witches who were still battling with the two elders, and the three of them are found dead in the ravine, practically sizzling with the lava, as the enormous beast slowly drops its black tail into the ravine and falls. Along with the witches, of course. Then Anna threw herself at the elders and engaged in combat with the four friends. While Tommy engaged in combat with the four huge goblins that had fallen from the above-ground pit. And Leo rushed to Diana's side to assist her.Although she was backed up against the ravine that encircled Sulu's dais, Diana came close to falling, until the snake plunged into the lava under her feet. Nirvana was well aware that Diana was on the verge of being pushed over the ledge and into the abyss of molten lava below her feet. She didn'

    Tommy added, "Oh well, D. I had planned on eating snake BBQ for dinner this evening, but it's not even feasible with that shadow hanging over me. Doesn't it look like a green screen that was used in future movies, D?""Yes, it's some kind of animated fuck of crap! In addition to a pot of giant worm soup. So put an end to your stomach aches and put your wolf fangs on, Tom."Then both of them halted their mind foolish conversation then Sulu's boomed around the niche of the chamber."Your commander Cornelius is a weakling," Sulu howled. "...Cornelius was a softie, but Nirvana here, on the other hand, was astute in assisting me, as were the two other chiefs." The two elders of the Dark Native's coven appeared out of nowhere, causing the witches to gasp in surprise. It took them completely by shock. It's no surprise why Sulu was successful in apprehending Lucinda. "Traitor!" Anna muttered under their collective breath while the rest of the witches stared at the two older leaders with contem

    But Sulu is a master at exploiting the relatively weak aspects and outsmarting his stronger opponents. Yet he was livid, and his hands trembled. His fury had such a potent effect on him that if he had stayed that way in front of a human, it would have blinded them. Nevertheless, Diana was not a human. Vampire Seer, the Fated One. She wouldn't be phased with this jerk. She thought to herself.Sulu, on the other hand, flashed a menacing smile and lifted his hands in the air as if invoking his magical abilities. "Arise, my brethren!" he said emphatically.Then unexpectedly, the huge shadow and black barrier started to wiggle and move. To slither towards them. It was not a column that had fallen. It had come to life. And it was now poised to swoop down on Diana's entourage.Meanwhile, Knight Leo vampire knights and Aya's witches were frantically fighting with the Goblin who was waiting at the entrance to the Gathering Hall.
