Fire Reclaimed
The smell of iron clung to Rey's skin.Juno's confession echoed like thunder in his skull."Kaelen helped them, Rey. Your brother struck first."It should’ve been impossible. It should’ve been a lie. But Juno's mangled body told the truth. His scars spoke of betrayal far deeper than Rey had ever imagined.The fire inside him trembled.He stood at the edge of the prison ruin where they had found Juno, ash swirling around his boots, the night sky thick with clouds. Lyra was beside him, her hand in his, but even her warmth couldn't reach the frost forming in his chest.Aunt Elyra—the sister of Seraphina—stood a few feet away, cloaked in shadows. She had been silent since the rescue, watching. Waiting. Like a hawk unsure of her prey.Zayne stood guard nearby, bruised and weary, but alive. Every breath he took was a gift bought with sacrifice.Juno lay unconscious now, wrapped in healing runes etched by Elira. His body wouldn’t last long, they all knew it. But it didn’t matter. What he’d s
Reunion in Fire
The prison reeked of rusted iron and burned flesh.Rey moved like a phantom between shadows, Emberclaw’s flame muted to a low, flickering pulse in his palm. Zayne’s breath came in slow, controlled puffs behind him, while Aeris glided across the bloodstained floor like an icy wraith, eyes narrowed and Rune Constructs dancing faintly across her fingertips.The Iron Maw Prison had not seen visitors in a decade—not the kind who came to rescue the dead.Yet here they were.“North wing. Third cell from the bottom,” murmured Elira’s voice in Rey’s ear, speaking through the crystal embedded in his collar. Her words were distant—slurred slightly. The Oracle was still recovering from her injuries during the Black Tower fire. But her sight remained sharper than any eye.They reached the cell.A twisted slab of enchanted steel marked with suppressing glyphs loomed in front of them. Rey raised his hand, the flame of Emberclaw licking up his wrist, burning with quiet sorrow.He didn’t need Elira to
The Dragon Rebellion
The night was torn open by firelight.From the shattered edge of the Iron Spire, Rey stood, his chest heaving with the effort of battle. Lyra leaned on him, blood trailing down her arm, eyes flashing with fury and disbelief. Zayne’s clothes were scorched, his fists still glowing with residual flame. Behind them, Aeris limped silently, avoiding their eyes. Her betrayal had nearly broken them, yet she returned. For now, that was enough.The escape from the Iron Spire had not been clean. The guards had swarmed them, triggered by alarms set off when Aeris faked an override to the cell barrier. They fought through spells, arrows, steel. Drax had nearly caught them at the gate, his blade nicking Zayne’s side as they vanished into the sewer tunnels of Velundar.They were fugitives now.The city above roared with activity. Tower bells rang, and skyships hovered like vultures in search of prey.And then they came.It began with a whisper.“Drakar…”From the shadows beyond the sewers, cloaked f
Rescue from the Iron Spire
The winds howled above the Iron Spire like the cries of forgotten gods, swirling with stormlight and fear. The spire—tall, grim, and cruel—rose like a dagger through the heart of Velundar’s eastern cliffs, encased in cursed steel and lit by shadowflames. No prisoner ever walked out of its gate.But Rey Drakar had never been one to obey rules—especially not those written in blood."We go at dusk," Rey muttered, eyes fixed on the map spread across the stone table in the crypt beneath the academy. His finger traced a red line through the mountain tunnel system. "Through the catacombs. The Iron Spire connects to the Empire’s lower dungeons by a forgotten shaft here. That’s how we get in."Zayne cracked his knuckles. "And how do we get out?"Rey looked up, and there was fire in his eyes. "We don’t leave without her."Aeris Dawnvale stood in the shadows, silent. Her white hair shimmered in the torchlight like snow reflecting flame. She'd listened to the plan without interrupting, her mind a
The General's Ultimatum
Rain hammered the glass panes of the war chamber like a warning from the skies themselves. General Veyron Kael stood before the wide arched windows of his private study within the Tower of War, his hands behind his back, fingers laced in cold contemplation. His silver-streaked hair clung damply to his temples. Stormclouds rolled over Velundar like the grinding teeth of gods, casting ominous shadows across the polished obsidian floor."You summoned me, father," Lyra's voice cut through the crackle of thunder, steady but wary.She stood tall in her Academy uniform, blades sheathed at her back, chin raised. But her heart pulsed with unease.Veyron didn’t turn. "I did. Close the door."The latch clicked shut behind her. He turned then, slow and deliberate. The firelight caught the rigid lines of his face, a chiseled mask hardened by decades of war. He looked at her not as a father, but as a general addressing a subordinate."You’ve grown soft," he said flatly.Lyra stiffened. "If you mean
Shadows in Velundar
The moon over Velundar hung like a glass eye—cold, pale, and watching. From the highest balcony of the Celestial Citadel, Empress Solaria Lux stood cloaked in silk woven from starfire, her hands folded like talons on the black marble rail.Below her, the city pulsed with life. Thousands bowed to the weight of her name, the might of her army, and the sacred image of her command. But tonight, her thoughts were not on the present. They drifted far to the east, beyond the Red Wastes and across the scorched bones of the past. To a flame.A boy."You confirmed it?" she said softly.A figure stepped from the shadows. Dressed in ink-black robes stitched with crimson runes, the High Void Scribe knelt at her feet."Yes, Your Radiance. The bloodline stirs. The boy bears the Mark of Flame."Solaria turned slowly. "Rey Soren... or rather, Rayden Drakar."The name curled from her lips like poison. Her golden eyes narrowed."He should have died that night. We purged them. We burned their bones to as
