A Kiss in the Cold
The wind howled across the frostbitten ridges of the Halberd Glacials, tearing through the snowfield like a beast unleashed. Ice cracked beneath armored boots. Overhead, gray clouds groaned, spitting flurries that danced around two cloaked figures trudging their way across a terrain where warmth had long been a memory."We shouldn't be this far north," Rey muttered, pulling his scarf higher over his mouth. His golden eyes flickered in the fading light, scanning the distant curve of the frozen plain. "This isn't a scouting mission. It's a trap.""Tell me something I don't know," Lyra replied, brushing snow from her shoulders. Her long braid was flecked with frost, but her stance remained sharp, poised like a drawn blade. "But I figured being alone in the middle of nowhere with you might make it interesting."Rey shot her a sideways glance, half-amused, half-wary. "Are you flirting or threatening me again? I can't tell."She smirked. "Maybe both."They paused atop a cliffside that overl
Blood Feud
The cursed artifact pulsed with a heartbeat not its own.Rey felt it before he saw it—a crushing weight of presence, like ancient hatred folded into obsidian stone. The air in the training coliseum thinned, each breath sharp as daggers.Kade Vorn stood center-stage, his armor scorched and dented from a recent battle, smirking like he’d dragged something out of a tomb for the sake of revenge. In his gloved hand rested a jagged, black relic—a blade that reeked of something beyond death. Its edge shimmered with faint red veins pulsing like veins, and as he held it aloft, it let out a low screech, like steel grinding against bone."Where did you get that?" Rey’s voice broke the tension, his fists clenched so tight his knuckles went pale.Kade grinned wider. "You recognize it, don't you, Soren? Or should I call you Drakar now?"A ripple of gasps cut through the crowd.Lyra, standing by the entrance, froze.Zayne stepped forward. "Kade, you don’t know what you’re playing with. That thing—it
The Mark of Betrayal
"You're not supposed to be here."The Archive Guardian's voice still echoed in Rey's bones like a death bell tolling in an empty cathedral. His pulse thundered in his ears as he stumbled out of the crumbling stone gate of the Archive, Elira gripping his hand tightly and Zayne watching their back with frantic eyes.They’d barely made it out before the Vault Door sealed behind them with a groan like a tomb shutting forever. Inside, the whispers of spirits, echoes of dead scholars, and sacred flames had tried to consume him. But what haunted Rey the most was not the shadows—they were expected.It was the burning mark on his chest.He hadn’t told Zayne or Elira. Not yet. Beneath his tunic, scorched across his skin like a cursed brand, the sigil pulsed with slow, angry heat. It wasn’t ink. It wasn’t magic. It was a command. It was alive.A swirling glyph shaped like a dragon’s eye encased in fire, and in the center: the unmistakable crest of the Drakar Clan.The Dragon System spoke to him
The Forbidden Library
The Academy of the Seven Towers stood silent under a bruised purple sky, the last glint of twilight folding itself into the gaping shadows that curled along the tower spires. A storm was whispering on the wind, heavy and electric. But deeper within the academy—beneath its gilded floors, down past forgotten stairwells and broken sigils—another kind of storm was brewing."Are you absolutely sure about this?" Zayne hissed, glancing over his shoulder for the fifth time."Not even a little," Rey answered, his voice low, urgent, and alive with a strange mix of dread and thrill. "But we need answers. If the sword is connected to my mother, if Emberclaw holds memories... then the vault—whatever it is—might hold more."Elira Moonveil floated behind them like a silent ghost, her silver hair glowing faintly in the dark. "The Archive is sealed for a reason. Even the headmasters don't have full clearance. It’s a living place—half temple, half trap. And tonight... it feels awake."The trio had slip
A Blade Named Emberclaw
The blade did not glisten. It pulsed.Like a heartbeat. Like it was breathing. Waiting.Rey stood at the center of the ancient chamber, the relic vault beneath the eastern wing of the Academy. His hand hovered inches above the blade. Emberclaw. That was what the glowing script on the pedestal called it. The letters shimmered in crimson flame, undulating like a living thing.He wasn’t supposed to be here.The path had opened only because the wall near the broken meditation garden had crumbled in last night’s storm. Students weren’t allowed beyond the seventh seal. But Rey’s feet had moved on their own, driven by the Dragon System’s whisper:_"The flame remembers. What you have lost lies beneath. Seek the claw forged in sorrow." _ So here he was.The walls breathed heat, alive with a thousand-year-old fire.And there it lay—a longsword of obsidian-black steel with molten veins running through its blade. Its hilt was bone-white, carved in the likeness of a dragon’s open maw. A single fla
Whispers and Shadows
"What are you hiding, Rey Soren?"The voice echoed in Rey's mind long after the duel ended, long after Kade Vorn had been carried off the field on a stretcher, bones shattered and pride scorched. His name was no longer whispered with disdain, but with suspicion. Fear had replaced curiosity. The Academy of the Seven Towers, a fortress of ambition and ancient secrets, was now watching him with the eyes of predators. He had revealed too much.Far too much.Zayne found him near the outer training yard that night, crouched beneath the lone flame-touched tree that never lost its leaves. Rey sat silent, the moonlight casting jagged shadows across his face."You good, flame-boy?" Zayne asked, tossing him a dried fruit. "I mean, you nearly broke the guy’s spine. Epic, but... scary."Rey caught the fruit, barely looking at it. His fingers trembled."I didn’t mean to lose control."Zayne shrugged, sitting beside him. "We all got something to hide. Yours just glows and throws people across the ar
