THE REVELATION
Queen Lindsey continued, her voice steady as she recounted the events.“After Damon took Ethusa to the palace, Marcelos was heartbroken. He cried for days, consumed by grief. In his heart, he vowed he would not accept what Damon had done; no matter what it took, he would reclaim Ethusa.Marcelos confronted Damon, demanding the return of Ethusa and the dragon gene power. Damon refused. ‘Ethusa belongs by my side, not yours,’ he said coldly. Enraged, Marcelos challenged Damon to a duel in five days, declaring that whosoever won would claim Ethusa and the dragon gene. Damon accepted.I tried to reason with Damon, urging him to return the dragon and its power, but he refused. Likewise, Marcelos’s father attempted to persuade him to step back, but Marcelos would not relent. He was determined; he had to reclaim what was rightfully his, even if it meant defying his father, who ultimately disowned him.The duel took place atop the highest mountain. Marcelos fought with every ounce of strength
THE BURDEN OF TRUTH
Queen Lindsey led Noah slowly toward the ancient stone well. The air was still—too still—like the entire room was holding its breath. Getting there, she said softly to him, “Noah… look inside".Noah leaned over the circular rim. At first, the dark water only showed him a simple reflection—his own face, weary and confused.“I see nothing but my face,” he said as he pulled back and looked at Queen Lindsey, frustration tightening his voice.“Look again,” she insisted, her tone calm but firm.Noah hesitated, then leaned forward once more. This time, the water shimmered—rippling as though touched by invisible hands. His reflection twisted, sharpened… and suddenly his own eyes flashed back at him, glowing bright yellow like molten gold.Noah jerked back from the well so fast his boots scraped the stones. His heartbeat thundered as he shook his head violently.“No—no, this can’t be me,” he said, stepping away in disbelief. “This is another one of your tricks!”“That is you. A truth you must
THE ARRIVAL OF DARKNESS
Ramsay and Noah tore through the room, sending pillows, papers, and small trinkets flying in every direction. The air was thick with tension, crackling with every hurried step and sharp turn. Ramsay lunged at Noah, eyes blazing with a mix of anger and desperation, while Noah twisted and dodged, narrowly avoiding his grasp. The floor groaned under their frantic movement, the scattered objects clattering like a storm around them.“Where did you go with Ryn? You must tell me!” Ramsay demanded, his voice echoing off the walls.“I can’t!” Noah shouted back, twisting, ducking, and narrowly avoiding Ramsay’s grasp. Their footsteps pounded against the floor, a chaotic rhythm of fear and frustration.The door creaked open abruptly, and both froze as a guard stepped inside, his presence commanding attention.“His Excellency summons you both to the dining table,” the guard announced to both, his tone calm but firm.Ramsay’s chest heaved as he straightened. “Okay, we’ll be right there,” he said,
THE MARC REQUEST
The Orges were terrifying creatures. They walked upright like humans, yet everything about them screamed danger. Pointed ears, feral faces, bodies covered in thick, coarse hair, four powerful arms ending in clawed fingers, and teeth as sharp as a lion’s. They towered over humans, and in battle, they are unstoppable: two arms wielding swords, spears, axes, or bows, while the other two tore into enemies with their claws.The Marcs were no less formidable. Not human, they had no visible face, always wearing helmets that covered their heads entirely. They are the riders of the dark phoenixes. Each Marc wielded a single sword, always tied to the side of their phoenix companion, moving in perfect synchrony with the bird.---Inside the house, Zussorender, Noah, Ramsay, Ryn, and Benjamin returned, their faces tense with worry. In the sitting room, silence hung heavily. Zussorender stood, staff in hand, lost in thought. Noah and Ramsay sat, still trying to process what they had seen. Benjam
THE SIEGE AT SHAPE TOWN
Some minutes before dusk, the people of Shape Town gathered at the front of their Lord’s house. Men, women, and children stood close together, clutching bags, bundles, and whatever belongings they could carry. The guards stood among them, alert, hands resting on their weapons. The sky above had begun to darken, clouds thick and heavy, as if the world itself was preparing for what was to come.The doors of the house opened. Benjamin stepped out first, followed by the four others. They moved forward and stopped before the crowd. At once, the people bowed their heads in respect. Benjamin waited, allowing them to rise again before he spoke.Benjamin said, his voice steady but heavy, “I am sure many of you here witnessed the war against Marcelos and his dark armies. You have seen with your own eyes what the Orges are capable of.”A murmur ran through the crowd at the mention of the name. He continued, “The Orges want us to bow before them, to become part of Marcelos’ army, but I said no.”
HELP FROM ETHUSA
Benjamin, Zussorender, Noah, Ramsay, Ryn, and the guards fought with everything they had, but there was no way they could win against the overwhelming numbers of the Orges. The creatures struck from all sides—two arms wielding weapons with lethal precision, the other two raking and clawing, tearing into anyone in reach. Still, the Orges pressed forward, relentless, indifferent to the losses around them.The battle raged into midnight. One by one, the guards fell, leaving only Benjamin, Zussorender, Noah, Ramsay, and Ryn. Their bodies were slick with blood, muscles screaming in exhaustion, every breath heavy and labored. Surrounded, wounded, and exhausted, they refused to surrender.Seeing their weakened state, the Marc descended from its phoenix and drew its sword. The Orges parted before it, clearing a path. Zussorender braced on his staff, trembling from fatigue, while Ryn and Benjamin continued to glare at the Orges, unwilling to give an inch.Then, without warning, Noah surged for
SECRETS OLDER THAN KINGS
It took Zussorender, Noah, and Ramsay five long days to reach Axrax. The journey was heavy with silence, the weight of what they had seen and fought pressing on their hearts with every step forward. .When at last the towering walls of Axrax rose before them, they did not pause to rest. They went straight to the palace, straight to the heart of the kingdom.The great palace hall stood vast and imposing, its pillars stretching high into the shadows above. When the Supreme Head Guard announced the arrival of the two royal princes and the wizard, surprise rippled through the hall.King Raynold, seated upon his throne, stiffened. The great doors opened, and Zussorender, Noah, and Ramsay entered. They walked forward in unison and stopped before the throne. Without hesitation, all three bowed deeply, showing the respect owed to the King of Axrax.“This is a surprise visit. I hope nothing is wrong, Zussorender?” King Raynold said, his voice calm but edged with concern as his eyes rested on Z
HIDDEN LEGACY
The King could not believe what he had just heard. King Raynold stared at Zussorender, disbelief heavy in his eyes. He said slowly, “I don’t quite understand you".“I detected that the royal prince carries the dragon gene. I sensed it when he used his power during training with me and with his brother", Zussorender replied.King Raynold rose sharply from his throne, shock washing over his face. He stepped down and walked toward Zussorender, each step uneasy. Stopping in front of him, he said, “This cannot be possible. How could he possess the dragon gene?”.Zussorender answered, “I believe he was born with it. King Damon was the only one known to possess the dragon gene. You are of his bloodline, and so is Prince Noah. It must have been passed down to him.”Raynold frowned deeply, saying, “If it was passed through generations, then why is there no record of anyone wielding the dragon gene or its power before Noah?”.“That is because it remained dormant. Hidden. Unmanifested. But in Noa
THE MIND CRYSTAL HEIST
3 MONTHS LATERThree months had passed, and in that time Noah and Ramsay had crossed a threshold few ever reached. What once felt wild and unstable within them had become calm, obedient—power answering to will alone. With bare hands and focused minds, they could summon and shape magic as naturally as breathing. At last, they could truly call themselves wizards.King Raynold watched them with pride. So did Zussorender and the royal princes. There was no doubt anymore—the training had succeeded. Yet Zussorender was not finished.He summoned the two royal princes to the palace training ground for what he called one final lesson.The wide stone field was quiet when Noah and Ramsay arrived. They stepped forward together and bowed deeply before their master. Zussorender returned the bow, his expression calm, unreadable.Zussorender said slowly, “I know you both possess extraordinary skill in swordsmanship. So I will not insult you by challenging you with blades. You have also mastered magic
WINGS OF A BROKEN OATH
King James, Princess Tracy, the head guard, and the rest of the palace guards arrived at the sacred hall, only to find a line of mercenaries blocking the entrance. King James’s eyes burned with anger at the audacity of the intruders.“Kill them!” he bellowed, his voice echoing through the marble corridors.The guards immediately drew their swords, rushing forward in unison. Steel clashed against steel, the metallic ringing of combat filling the air. Sparks flew as the palace guards expertly cut through the mercenaries’ ranks, their disciplined formations overpowering the intruders.Princess Tracy, standing a step behind the front line, nocked her arrows with lethal precision. Her bowstring sang as she let the first arrow fly, striking a mercenary attempting to flee and sound the alarm. Another mercenary lunged toward the hall’s inner doors—Tracy’s arrow pierced him before he could move a step. One by one, the mercenaries fell, either by sword or by Tracy’s precise shots, until none re
