The Wolf Realm and the Hybrid Trials
The battlefield was painted in shadow and fire. For almost an hour, steel and fang clashed against claws and the air was thick with smoke, the cries of the wounded, and the iron scent of blood.The werewolves were furred warriors with eyes like molten amberThey moved as one, a wall of muscle and moonlight. Every step shook the ground. Within minutes, the vampires’ feral confidence began to crumble. Outnumbered and suddenly on the defensive, they slipped back into the darkness, vanishing as though swallowed by the night itself.When the last of their red eyes disappeared, Elias lowered his sword, chest heaving. He turned to see who had just talked to him.Helen.She stood just a few paces away, her hair longer than he remembered, moonlight dancing across her white cloak. Her smile was warm, yet her eyes carried a story untold.“Long time,” she said softly.For a heartbeat, Elias could only stare. Then joy flooded him, breaking through every wall he had built around his heart. He strod
shadows before dawn
"What the hell happened?!" the Queen’s voice rose sharply as she entered the throne hall, her face pale with fear.A breathless guard bowed deeply before answering. "Your highness... She was rushing to see the prince when, suddenly, someone dragged her away. It was too fast, I couldn’t see the face clearly.""This must be the work of the vampires," Elias muttered, fists clenched at his sides. His tone was calm, but his eyes blazed with restrained fury. "They have already eliminated everyone in Neiihbrij village."The King stood, pacing slowly, as if the weight of the revelation pressed on his spine. "I’ve heard stories of their attacks, on the borders, in scattered villages beyond the capital. I summoned the Western battalions for reinforcement, but I didn’t think they’d infiltrate the palace itself."Elias stepped forward, his voice steady. "I need a small guard unit. We’ll pursue them. The vampires may be fast, but the sun will rise soon. They’ll need to take shelter. We can still r
Return
Elias wondered how his master kael ,the mysterious man cloaked in an aura of ancient power, had been able to recognize him so easily. The moment their eyes locked, Master Kael's chanting ceased, and the binding force pinning Elias to the cold stone ground vanished. Slowly, painfully, Elias got to his feet.His voice broke through the silence like a thunderclap. “How did you recognize me? And why… Why did you plot to end me? I served faithfully here, I bled, I fought, I survived. Is it so terrible that I chose to walk away? Why?!”Anger surged in his chest like fire licking the walls of his ribs, and it spilled from his voice with unrestrained fury.Master Kael looked at him, not with pity, not with regret, but with a knowing calm that only added fuel to Elias’s rage. The flames from the torches around them cast flickering shadows on his ancient features.“I recognized you because I was the one who put you in that body,” Master Kael said, his voice rich with conviction and secrets. "Yo
Shadows from the past
The faint crackling of fire was the first thing Seraphina heard before her eyelids fluttered open. A sharp pain throbbed at the side of her head, but it was dulled by the warmth that enveloped her body. She was lying on a mat, covered with a tattered woolen blanket that smelled of ash and pine. Her eyes drifted slowly across the room, simple, rugged, and made of timber. Thin beams of light filtered in through the wooden planks, casting lines across the earthen floor.She turned slowly, her limbs stiff and sore. She was lying on a coarse mat, and beside her was Elias. He covered half her body with a blanket.“You’re awake,” he said softly, his voice barely above a whisper, as though afraid to disturb the quiet peace of the morning.Seraphina blinked, still trying to adjust to the hazy golden glow. Across the hut, a little girl, no more than ten, sat silently beside the fire. Her eyes were blank, fixated on the dancing flames. Not a word passed her lips. She looked like a doll carved fr
The awakening
When Helen opened her eyes, she thought she was dead.A pale light washed over her face, gentle and warm, yet strange, and the clouds floated as though they were living, breathing things. All around her, the air hummed with magic. Lush green mountains rolled across the horizon, the trees sparkling faintly like they had dew made of starlight. A waterfall in the distance poured into a clear lake that glowed from within, casting rainbow reflections over everything.“Is this… the afterlife?” she murmured, her voice fragile against the vast silence.A strange sense of peace cloaked her. The pain she remembered, the searing wound on her side… was gone. She pressed her hand gently to her side. Nothing. No pain. Not even a scar. Only the smoothness of her skin and the thudding confusion of her heart.Then, like a flash, a vivid memory struck her like lightning , her grandmother’s face. Her eyes. Her whisper. She had seen her, right before she blacked out. But how? She was supposed to be dead.
Blood and farewell
The underground prison reeked of damp decay, death, and desperation. Mold crept along the stone walls like veins of rot, and the flickering torchlight barely illuminated the despair in the eyes of the prisoners…humans, caged like animals, waiting to be slaughtered to satisfy the vampire king’s hunger.Elais sat against the cold wall, silent, lost in thought. Suddenly, faint footsteps echoed down the corridor, quick and light. A familiar figure appeared from the shadows… Anna, cloaked and hooded, her eyes darting around nervously. In her hand, she clutched a ring of keys.“You came,” Elais said, standing quickly.“I bribed the guards. They’ll be asleep for another hour if we're lucky,” she whispered, unlocking the cell door.She pointed toward a small, hidden passage behind a rusted iron door. “This tunnel leads to the outskirts, just beyond the borders of Valerius’s rule. It’s your only chance.”As Elais prepared to move, his gaze fell on the emaciated prisoners cowering in nearby ce
