last update Last Updated: 2025-04-01 17:43:00

The great door loomed before them, pulsing with a golden radiance that seemed to breathe like a living thing. The sheer size of it dwarfed them, stretching high into the misty void above, its surface carved with symbols that shifted as if whispering their secrets.

Elior took a step forward, feeling the weight of the moment settle on his shoulders. The trials had tested them, tearing through their doubts and weaknesses. And yet, this felt like the true threshold—the point of no return.

Rael let out a slow breath. “So… this is it.”

Myrra traced the shifting patterns on the door with her fingers. “The Final Seal lies beyond this,” she murmured. “We break it… and we change the world.”

Bram crossed his arms. “No turning back now, is there?”

Sienna stood slightly apart, her gaze fixed on the symbols. Elior had noticed her silence more and more lately, but now, her stillness unsettled him.

“We need to be ready,” he said. “We don’t know what’s on the other side.”

Sienna finally spoke, her voi

    The moment Sienna unleashed her power, the world erupted into chaos.A wave of golden energy exploded from her palms, crackling like a living storm. Elior barely had time to react before the force slammed into him, sending him skidding backward across the glass-like surface. The impact rattled through his bones, but he gritted his teeth and forced himself upright.Sienna was no longer their ally.She stood beside Erythos now, her form wreathed in shimmering gold, the remnants of the shattered Seal swirling around her like a cloak of divine fury. She was no longer just a strategist, no longer just a wielder of magic, she was something more.A force to be reckoned with.Erythos, standing tall and terrible beside her, lifted his hand. The darkness that bled from his form coiled outward, consuming the light around them. “You were fools to think you could change fate,” he said, his voice reverberating across the void. “Fate belongs to those strong enough to claim it.”Elior tightened his g

    The void was endless.Elior’s breath caught in his throat as he plummeted through the swirling abyss. The battlefield was gone, the ground shattered beneath them, leaving only the vast nothingness of space stretching infinitely in all directions. Stars flickered in the distance, distant pinpricks of light in the consuming dark. Wind, if such a thing existed here, whipped past him, a formless force dragging him downward.Then, with a jarring pull, he stopped.The impact sent a sharp jolt through his body, but there was no ground beneath him, only the illusion of it, a shimmering platform of condensed magic holding him aloft. Around him, the others landed in a similar fashion, some less gracefully than others.Rael let out a sharp grunt as he hit the surface, rolling before pushing himself to his feet. His twin blades remained in his grip, but there was an uncertainty in his eyes, his stance uncharacteristically shaken.Bram hit hard, letting out a pained growl as he struggled to rise.

    The city stretched before them like a forgotten monument to a time long past. Towering spires, cracked and crumbling, reached toward the twilight sky, their surfaces worn smooth by the passage of ages. The streets were paved with obsidian stone, each step echoing unnaturally through the silence. Buildings leaned at odd angles, some suspended mid-collapse, held aloft by unseen forces. Shadows danced where no light shone, shifting as if aware of their presence.Elior took a slow breath, his grip tightening around the hilt of his sword. The city pulsed with power, not the raw, overwhelming might of Erythos, but something older, something watching.Rael exhaled sharply beside him. “Well, this place is cheerful.”Myrra’s gaze swept over the ruins, her fingers brushing the air as if testing for magic. “It’s not just a ruin. Something lingers here.”“Ghosts?” Bram asked, rolling his shoulders. “Wouldn’t surprise me.”“Not ghosts,” Myrra murmured. “Memories.”Elior stepped forward cautiously,

  • The Howling Throne   Chapter 1: A Kingdom in Ashes

    My name is Elior. By the standards of the packs, I’m nobody special. I don’t hail from a powerful bloodline, nor do I carry the weight of a prestigious family name. I’m a lone wolf, unaligned to any pack and free of the endless power struggles that define their lives. At least, that’s what I tell myself.For as long as I can remember, I’ve lived on the edges of their world—watching, listening, learning. I was born into a minor pack, one so small it barely registered in the grand hierarchy of our kind. When our territory was claimed by stronger wolves, I learned the hard way that survival didn’t favor the noble-hearted. Strength ruled, and anyone who couldn’t keep up was left to fade into obscurity.I’ve spent most of my life avoiding the packs’ games, but Alaric changed everything.He was different from the others—an alpha who ruled not with brute strength, but with cunning and vision. Under his reign, the packs had known something resembling peace. And while I stayed far from his cou

  • The Howling Throne    Chapter 2: Fangs of Ambition

    The forest welcomed me like an old friend as I slipped through its shadows, the scent of pine and damp earth filling my senses. The cool night air was a relief after the suffocating tension of Silverfang Keep. But even here, under the canopy of ancient trees, the weight of what I’d witnessed refused to lift.Alaric’s death wasn’t just a loss—it was the beginning of a storm. Without him, the delicate balance between the packs would collapse.I couldn’t let that happen.The moon hung high in the sky as I made my way to the one place I knew I’d find answers: the Den of Whispers.It wasn’t an official name, of course. The Den was more myth than fact, a place where information flowed freely for those who knew how to listen. It was said that every secret in the packs’ lands eventually found its way there, carried by rogues, exiles, and ambitious young wolves seeking to rise above their stations.For someone like me, who had no pack to call his own, the Den was both a refuge and a danger.By

    The cabin was small and unassuming, nestled deep within the forest. It wasn’t much, but it was safe—a sanctuary that Sienna and I had used in the past when we needed to disappear from prying eyes. Sienna led me inside, her grip firm but careful. I slumped into a chair near the hearth, the scent of ash and aged wood filling my senses as she lit the fire. “You’re lucky I found you,” she said, her tone clipped as she rummaged through a nearby cabinet. “Another minute, and they would’ve torn you apart.” “Luck had nothing to do with it,” I muttered, wincing as I adjusted my arm. The bite wound on my shoulder throbbed, and my body ached from the skirmish. “What were you even doing out there?” Sienna glanced at me, her silver hair catching the firelight. “I could ask you the same question, Elior. But since you look half-dead, I’ll save the interrogation for later.” She pulled out a small vial of herbal salve and a roll of bandages, then crouched in front of me. Her touch was gentle

    Chapter 4: The Shadowed PathsThe air in the neutral lands was heavier, filled with a stillness that carried the whispers of old betrayals. The forest seemed darker here, the trees towering like silent sentinels guarding secrets better left undisturbed. Sienna walked ahead, her movements confident but cautious, her silver hair catching faint traces of moonlight.I followed, the ache in my shoulder a dull reminder of how close I’d come to death. The salve Sienna had applied had worked its magic, numbing the worst of the pain, but the tension between us was another matter entirely.“This place feels... wrong,” I muttered, breaking the silence as we approached the edges of the ruined council chambers.“It should,” she replied curtly, scanning the path ahead. “The Archives are steeped in blood. The council thought they were untouchable—until the day they weren’t.”I could hear the bitterness in her tone, but I didn’t press. Sienna had lived through more battles and betrayals than most. If

    The road to the Shadowlands was fraught with dangers. Every step closer felt like diving deeper into the unknown, where the air grew heavier and the shadows seemed to stretch endlessly. Sienna and I moved swiftly, keeping our pace brisk but cautious. The map was our lifeline now, the cryptic markings our only guide to the Crown. We had barely covered half the distance when the faint scent of smoke reached my nose. I halted, holding up a hand to stop Sienna. “You smell that?” I asked. She nodded, her senses as sharp as mine. “Someone’s nearby.” We crept forward, staying low and hidden within the thick brush. As we rounded a bend, the source of the smoke became clear—a small campfire flickering amidst the trees. Two figures sat near the fire, their voices low but distinct. One was a burly man with a thick beard and a scar running down the side of his face. The other was a lean woman with fiery red hair and a mischievous glint in her eyes. ---Sienna nudged me, her voice bare

    The stone steps stretched endlessly before them, winding upward through the ruins in a spiral that seemed impossible in its vastness. The air was thinner here, charged with an unnatural energy that made the hairs on the back of Elior’s neck stand on end.As they climbed, the ruins around them seemed to shift, warping with each step. The sky above was no longer the deep blue of night, nor the pale glow of dawn, it was something else entirely, a swirling expanse of stars and golden light.“This place feels... wrong,” Rael muttered, glancing around. “Like it’s not part of our world.”“That’s because it isn’t,” Myrra said. She touched one of the stone walls, watching as her fingers passed through it like mist before solidifying again. “We’re somewhere in between.”“Between what?” Bram asked.Sienna, who had been silent for most of their ascent, finally spoke. “Between what was and what will be.”Elior glanced at her, noticing the way she kept her gaze fixed ahead, determined but distant.

    The air was thick with tension as Elior and his companions stood before the three doors. Each was adorned with shifting symbols, their patterns writhing like living things. The Architect loomed before them, their presence both commanding and ethereal, as if they existed beyond the confines of time itself.“The Trials of the Worthy will test more than your strength,” the Architect intoned, their voice reverberating in the vast emptiness. “They will weigh your purpose, your conviction, and the burdens you carry. Choose wisely, for only those who pass may proceed.”Rael ran a hand through his hair, his jaw set. “And what happens if we fail?”The Architect’s celestial mask tilted slightly. “You will not leave.”A heavy silence fell upon the group.Elior took a steady breath, staring at the doors. “There are three. Does that mean we each face them alone?”“No,” the Architect answered. “Each door presents a different trial. You may choose to enter as a group or face them separately, but kno

    The sun hung low in the sky as Elior and his companions made their way through the craggy hills leading toward the Celestial Ruins. The wind carried the scent of earth and distant rain, a stark contrast to the eerie stillness they knew awaited them beyond the horizon. They had been traveling for hours, their boots kicking up dust as they walked along the uneven path.Rael exhaled sharply. "I still don’t understand why the First King left such cryptic messages. If he wanted us to find the ruins, why not just say so?"Myrra, adjusting the strap of her satchel, glanced at him. "Maybe he wanted to make sure only the right people could reach it.""Or maybe he just enjoyed watching people struggle," Bram muttered. He wiped sweat from his brow. "Either way, I’d rather have a proper map than riddles."Sienna, who had been walking slightly ahead, came to a stop near a cluster of trees. "We need to gather supplies before we go any farther. There’s no telling what we’ll face inside the ruins, an

    Elior awoke with a gasp, the taste of lightning on his tongue. His chest ached, his head spun, and for a moment, he couldn’t tell if he was still standing in that vast luminous space or if he had been thrown somewhere else entirely. The ground beneath him was solid, but cracked, ashen dust rose around him as he pushed himself upright.He wasn’t alone.Rael lay sprawled a few feet away, groaning as he sat up, rubbing his temples. Myrra’s fingers twitched, her breath shallow as she stirred. Sienna was the last to move, her dark hair spilling over her face as she slowly lifted her head.Elior’s heart pounded. They were back.But something was wrong.The city of Dawnfarc stretched out before them, but it was empty, silent. The streets that had once been teeming with life were barren. The air was thick with dust, and the sky…Elior’s breath caught.The sky was broken.One half blazed red, a sun frozen at the edge of dusk. The other was swallowed by darkness, the moon looming too large, sur

    Light surged around Elior as he stepped forward, his senses overwhelmed by the sheer force of it. It wasn’t painful, nor was it warm or cold, it was simply there, wrapping around him, filling every space, stretching infinitely in all directions. The void had vanished, replaced by something greater, something older.His footsteps echoed on unseen ground, each step resonating through the vast expanse. Ahead of him, the First King waited, unmoving, his presence as unwavering as the stars themselves.“You have taken the first step,” the king said, his voice a deep hum within the luminous space. “But you have yet to understand the path you walk.”Elior squared his shoulders, determination hardening his stance. “Then tell me.”The First King’s gaze was unreadable, his expression carved from centuries of knowledge and sacrifice. “To rule is to bear the weight of all things. To shape the world is to accept its burdens, its flaws, its endless contradictions. What you seek is not a throne, not
