The Collapse of Hope
Meanwhile, across the battlefield, Calen Storm pressed forward with unyielding determination. Every step he took was heavy with purpose, even as his body bore fresh wounds inflicted by the relentless strikes of the Dark Elf Army. Cuts and burns marred his flesh, his breath grew uneven, yet he refused to falter. Pain meant nothing compared to the peril that loomed before his people.“Whatever happens, I must defeat them all,” he swore to himself, his voice low yet firm, echoing amidst the chaos. “If not, they will seize the palace of Vynoria, or worse, bring ruin upon every nation of this world!”The thought alone hardened his resolve. His kingdom, his people, and the fragile balance of the continent depended on him standing his ground. He had no luxury of retreat, no time to shield himself. Elara Wynn had already withdrawn from the battlefield to protect their daughter, Avenya, leaving him to shoulder the brunt of the conflict. He could not fail
War of Two Worlds
The battle outside the walls of the Vynoria Palace grew ever more chaotic, though at last reinforcements arrived from other kingdoms. News of the assault upon the Vynoria Palace had quickly spread, and troops from the Kingdom of Drakhtarion, from Eryndall, and allied forces soon joined the warriors of Vynoria, launching a counterattack against the Dark Elf army. They fought savagely, each side burning with ambition to slay the other with every shred of strength they possessed.“You must not falter, Calen Storm! We are all behind you, you cannot lose this war!”Tharstan shouted from the rear, as he saw Calen Storm take several blows from the enemy. He tried to encourage him, for Calen Storm was now the commander of all the forces gathered there. Soldiers of Drakhtarion, Eryndall, and the allied armies stood united under his direction to fight against the Dark Elves.“Of course, Grandfather!”The battle raged on, yet as time passed,
Night Attack
After making sure that Avenya was safe inside the sacred chamber, everyone decided to return to their own kingdoms. Earlier, Calen Storm and Elara Wynn had offered a feast for them, but they declined, since they needed to guard their realms.At last, everyone departed from that place, except for Tharstan. Tharstan and the Drakhtarion soldiers remained by the banks of the Sacred River, accompanying Calen Storm, Elara Wynn, and the Vynoria soldiers.“This must be a very heavy decision for you, but believe me, all of this will soon come to an end. I am truly certain that things will improve in the near future, even though there are obstacles we must overcome first. You are strong and remarkable people, you will surely endure all of this together. And I will always be by your side to help you.”Tharstan patted Calen Storm’s shoulder, giving encouragement to his grandson and to Elara Wynn. In truth, he also did not wish to separate Avenya from her parents, but this decision was the best fo
The Defense of Vynoria
Lately, the atmosphere was filled with unrelenting tension. No one could go about their daily activities in peace, for every mind was weighed down by the constant threats looming over the kingdom.“All the rulers of the neighboring kingdoms will arrive in Vynoria today. They wish to hold a grand council with us, to devise strategies and discuss the problems at hand. They are certain that Vynoria is the safest stronghold for protection, so they want to gather here,”Elara Wynn spoke as she entered the chamber where Calen Storm was keeping vigil beside Avenya. She saw the unwavering care Calen showed his daughter, unwilling to leave her side even for a moment.Hearing his wife’s words, Calen straightened his posture and looked at Elara Wynn. “Are they already on their way here?”“They should arrive very soon. We must prepare ourselves to receive them.”Calen’s eyes fell once more on Avenya, who lay asle
The Dark Weapon of Lord Kael
After causing quite a stir, Lord Kael ordered his troops to take a brief rest.“Why are you asking us to stop, Lord Kael? Shouldn’t we be striking Vynoria as quickly as possible? You have a special goal you must accomplish at once, don’t you?”One of the soldiers posed the question to Lord Kael. They looked eager to continue the assault, urging him to press forward against the kingdom they so despised.But Lord Kael simply shook his head in reply. “Save your spirit for later. For now, rest, because I too am weary.”Hearing the words of their leader, none dared to object. At last, they settled down in a forest by the riverside, a place far removed from the common roads and hidden from wandering travelers.Lord Kael then stood beside a tree, gazing down at his palms. Seconds later, a pitch-black orb formed within his hands.“Now I hold this immense power. Pure darkness, an energy capable of piercing through holy essence. I will prove that righteousness does not always triumph. With this
Shadows In the North
“Stop thinking about things you shouldn’t dwell on anymore. Right now, focus only on the celebration, Father. You must share in their joy!”In Calen Storm’s arms, Avenya continued trying to lift his spirit. She did not want to see him sink once again into despair after the betrayal of his trusted guard. Even though they had shared the spiritual ritual together, Avenya was convinced her father’s calm had been shaken once more by Larry’s treachery.Calen gazed deeply into Avenya’s face. “Yes, my dear. I will always remember every word you say. But today has been such a long day, and I know you must be exhausted. So, why don’t you go to bed now? Later, your mother and I will join you in your room to keep you company until you fall asleep.”“Okay, Father. I also ate so many sweet treats earlier, so I’m really full. Now I want to sleep. Promise me, you both have to be there with me tonight!”Avenya extended her little finger toward Calen and Elara Wynn. Her parents linked theirs with hers,
