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
Bloodlines Reignite
The arena was alive.Thousands packed the marble amphitheater that crowned the Tower of Wyrms. Lit torches burned like halos above the crowd, their flames swaying with anticipation. A holy duel. A rite of legacy. A celebration of power. Rey stood alone on the obsidian platform, hands clenched, breath steady, heart hammering in his ears.He was never meant to be here. This duel wasn’t supposed to happen.And yet, here he stood.His opponent, Varic Talon, was the Academy’s most decorated prodigy in elemental form combat. A third-year. Twice chosen by the Empress’ personal envoy for demonstration duels. He wore gilded armor and arrogance like perfume."Rey Solthorn," Varic sneered. "Street trash from the Lower Ring. I’ll make this quick."Rey didn’t answer. The silence carried more weight than any insult.At the judges’ stand, Master Juno shifted uncomfortably."He shouldn’t be out there," Elira whispered beside him. "Not yet. Not when we don’t understand how deep the blood runs."Juno's
The General’s Daughter
The wind screamed across the obsidian cliffs of Frosthold Ridge, biting into exposed skin like icy teeth. Snow spiraled from the mountains, swallowing the trail behind them. Rey adjusted the cloak around Lyra’s shoulders as they crouched behind a frozen outcrop, the enemy patrol fading into the misty ravine below.“You alright?” he whispered.Lyra nodded, but her face was pale. “I’m fine,” she lied.He could see the gash on her arm—the one she refused to let him tend to. Stubborn. Proud. But bleeding all the same.“We need to find shelter,” he said, not waiting for agreement.A few hundred meters up the ridge, they found it: a shallow cave framed by jagged stone and thick snowdrifts. The inside was narrow, cold, and reeked of damp earth, but it was safe. Rey ignited a small flame between his palms to warm the air. The fire didn’t roar—it pulsed gently, flickering in tune with his heartbeat.He looked up.Lyra was staring at the flame. But she wasn’t afraid anymore.“Your power,” she m
The Spy in the Tower
"He's here. The boy with fire in his blood. The relic will do the rest."The voice was a whisper—sharp, oily, and venom-slick. It slipped through the hidden tunnels beneath the Tower like a rat chasing blood.High above, Rey Soren had no idea he was being hunted.The Academy buzzed with midterm aftermath. Whispers of Rey's Dragon Rage flooded the halls like wildfire—half awe, half fear.Rey didn’t care.He hadn’t slept since the Trial. His hands still trembled. Not from pain. From the memory of Kade’s crushed ribs. Of the heat roaring out of him like a dam breaking. Of the way everyone had stared afterward like he wasn’t a person anymore.Like he was a bomb.Zayne tried to keep things light. “Come on, Flameboy,” he grinned, slapping Rey’s back as they crossed the Training Yard. “I heard they’re calling you ‘The Inferno Prince’ now. Got a nice ring to it, yeah?”Rey cracked a tired smile. “Only if you say it with a crown on your head.”“I can make one from stale bread if that helps.”T
