Chapter 10 — The Man Behind the Throne
Elder Mordain attacked Harold before anyone could recover from the revelation. The old man raised one hand, and the black throne answered.A violent pulse erupted from the ancient seat. Harold felt the force strike him squarely in the chest, throwing him backwards through the air. He crashed into the remains of a fallen tree, and pain exploded across his back as broken branches scattered around him.Nyros shouted inside his mind. Get up!”Harold forced himself onto one knee. Across the battlefield, Selena had already drawn a rune-covered blade.Aria's golden eyes narrowed with fury, while the Royal Seekers spread into a defensive formation around the throne. Commander Darius looked from Mordain to the ancient seat with open disbelief.“You were working for the Sovereign Throne?”Mordain smiled. The expression no longer belonged to the frightened elder Harold had known his entire life. It belonged to someone who had been waiting.“Working for it?” Mordain repeated. “No, Commander. You s
Chapter 9 — The Mountain That Walked
The Third Sovereign arrived by destroying the only path out of the forest. Harold had barely turned toward the northern mountains when the ground beneath his feet lurched violently.A crack split through the battlefield, racing between shattered trees and corpses before widening into a ravine so deep that darkness swallowed the falling debris. Selena Virel shouted first.“Everyone, move away from the fault!”Her command came a heartbeat too late. The mountain moved. For one terrible moment, Harold could not understand what he was seeing.The northern ridge had always been part of the landscape, a dark line of stone rising beyond the forest. Then the ridge bent. Stone shifted. Entire cliffs folded inward.A shape slowly rose from beneath layers of earth, snow, and ancient trees. The mountain had not been a mountain. It had been sleeping. Harold stumbled backwards as a colossal hand emerged from the mountainside.Each finger was larger than the largest house in the Ethel Tribe, and ancie
Chapter 8 — The Hunters of the Throne
The first attack came from the sky. Not from the Sky Tyrant.Not from the awakened Catastrophes.But from humans. A pillar of golden light descended from the clouds with enough force to split the mountain ridge beyond the forest. The explosion illuminated the storm-dark landscape, and the resulting shockwave flattened hundreds of trees in an instant. Harold was thrown backwards.The transformed execution beast dug its claws into the earth to remain standing. Aria's eyes widened. Even the Sky Tyrant immediately turned toward the source of the attack. Something was coming. Something powerful. The realisation settled heavily over the battlefield. Only moments had passed since the Sky Tyrant revealed that the remaining Catastrophes were awakening, yet another force had already arrived. Harold felt a growing sense of unease.The world suddenly seemed much larger than he had imagined. His entire life had been spent within the boundaries of the Ethel Tribe. The forest had been his world. The t
Chapter 7 — The Eye Above the Storm
The sky attacked first. The colossal crimson eye that had opened within the darkness suddenly narrowed, and every monster in the swarm screamed simultaneously. The sound was unlike anything Harold had ever heard.Thousands of creatures cried out in terror at the same moment, creating a horrifying chorus that rolled across the mountains and forests like a living wave. Birds dropped dead from the sky. Nearby trees bent violently under an invisible pressure. Even the rain seemed to hesitate before continuing its descent.Then the monsters started falling. Harold stared upward in disbelief. Hundreds of winged creatures plummeted from the sky as though their strings had been cut. Massive drakes, razor-wing hawks, storm vultures, and creatures he could not even name dropped helplessly through the clouds. None of them was injured. None of them was dead.They were simply unconscious. The crimson eye had looked at them. That alone had been enough. Harold felt a knot tighten inside his stomach.
Chapter 6 — The First Catastrophe
The corrupted hunters attacked before Harold could demand answers. One moment, the forest stood suspended in a fragile state of shock after Elder Mordain revealed Nyros' identity. The next three Blight-touched creatures lunged through the rain with enough speed to blur their distorted forms. Their bodies no longer resembled humans.Black scales had erupted through flesh. Their limbs bent at unnatural angles. Their eyes glowed with a sickly silver light that contained neither reason nor mercy. Whatever humanity they once possessed had already been consumed. Harold reacted instinctively. The black sword flashed upward. A claw scraped against the blade. Dark energy exploded outward.The creature's arm disintegrated instantly. However, instead of retreating, the corrupted hunter continued attacking. It moved with horrifying disregard for pain, throwing itself forward despite the damage." Behind you!" the transformed execution beast roared. Harold spun. Another corrupted creature emerged
Chapter 5 — The Bloodline That Should Not Exist
The first spear flew toward Harold's heart less than three seconds after the monster called him the Lost Heir. The attack came not from a panicked hunter, but from Elder Mordain himself. Despite the blood staining his robes and the injuries covering his body, the elder moved with desperate determination. Years of authority, pride, and fear had finally collapsed into a single objective.Harold had to die. The spear of condensed spiritual energy cut through the storm like a bolt of red lightning. Harold barely registered the attack. His mind was still struggling to process the declaration that had shaken the battlefield. The Lost Heir. The words echoed relentlessly inside his thoughts. What did they mean? Why had the monster knelt before him?Why had Nyros suddenly become so cautious? Most importantly...Why did Elder Mordain look terrified? The answer arrived before Harold could finish the thought. The transformed execution beast moved. A colossal claw intercepted the crimson spear befo
