All Chapters of THE LUNA’S ASCENSION: Chapter 101 - Chapter 105

I took a deep breath, letting the chill of the night air wash over me as I watched the stars stretch across the dark sky. The words I’d heard by the river lingered, stirring something restless within me, but I told myself it was only the remnants of the long journey we’d just endured. After all, we’d won. The prophecy was fulfilled, and Silverclaw was free to rebuild without the shadow of destiny looming over us. But that small voice in the back of my mind wouldn’t be silenced, whispering that there was still more to come.Strange things had begun happening in Silverclaw. Small things, barely noticeable—until you paid attention. The forest had grown eerily quiet at night, with fewer animals stirring. Flickers of movement had started appearing at the edges of town, shadows darting between trees but never stepping into the light. People dismissed it as paranoia after so much recent turmoil, but I felt a growing unease. A sixth sense, a warning that something dark was lying just beyond o

The Guardian’s warning echoed in my mind long after they’d disappeared into the shadows of the forest. Someone close to me—a connection I trusted—was linked to the darkness itself. The thought sent a chill through me, unraveling every certainty I’d clung to. I’d spent the night wrestling with these doubts, the weight of betrayal heavy on my chest, when a distant sound pulled me from my restless thoughts.Low, rhythmic chanting drifted through the air, growing louder with each passing moment.

The air around it crackled with an energy that felt ancient, powerful, and

The wind had picked up, swirling around us as if whispering secrets I wasn’t yet ready to hear. The revelation from the encrypted messages left us all on edge. It felt as though every move we’d made had been somehow foreseen by the Keepers of the Balance, our actions almost preordained. After our ominous discovery, Elena, Mason, and I gathered to pour over every piece of information we had, hoping to glean something we might’ve overlooked. But the more we dug, the clearer it became that we were missing something vital. A hidden piece of history, a key that could turn this game of power in our favor.That was when Elena spoke the word, almost too softly, as if invoking it was enough to summon it to life. "The Obsidian Tear."A silence fell over us. The Obsidian Tear—a relic from the ancient world, rumored to be an artifact of profound power and dark magic. Legends held that it was forged in the heart of a dying star and that only those of pure strength and courage could wield its infl
