Deep beneath the Ashwood mountains, there was once a forge that didn’t temper steel—but tempered souls.This was where Brown was born—not of blood, but of purpose. Not as a king… but as a weapon. A name whispered in rebellion camps, in war prisons, in the silence between battles.But today, the silence ended.The door to the forge groaned open, scorched by time.And Brown stepped inside.His armor was broken. His blade cracked.But his eyes?Still burning.Clara followed close behind, her hands trembling—not from fear, but memory.“I thought you’d never come back here,” she whispered.Brown paused. “Neither did I.”He moved toward the altar where his original sword was laid—The Ember Requiem—the weapon forged when he first defied the Empire.It was still there.Untouched.Waiting.Flashback: The Day of CoronationTen years ago…The war was ov

The Battle of Nexus
Brown nodded slowly, feeling her strength flow into him. “Danniel… let’s hear your plan.”Danniel’s eyes glinted, a cold brilliance lighting up the room. “Then pay attention. The survival of more than one realm depends on it.”Danniel Montero adjusted his glasses and spread a series of glowing maps across the table. Each map shimmered with ley lines, energy nodes, and rifts—portals the Wraith Lords could exploit. His voice was calm, precise, each word slicing through the tension.“First,” he began, “we need to stabilize the temporal seams. These rifts are feeding the Wraith Lords’ power. They grow stronger with every second of instability. Brown, your direct assaults are impressive… but here, brute force is a liability.”Brown’s fists clenched, embers flickering faintly across his knuckles. “Then what do you suggest? Sit and wait for them to strike?”Danniel’s eyes never left the maps. “Not wait—control. We use the laws of causality against them. Their existence in this realm is tempo
The Sparks of Loyalty
The atmosphere in the room shifted as Brown and Clara exchanged a knowing glance. Their entrance wasn’t just a formality—they carried an aura of determination that added weight to the already tense chamber.“Danniel,” Brown said firmly, bowing his head slightly, “we stand with you. Whatever games of power these men try to play, they’ll have to go through us first.”Clara stepped forward, her eyes blazing with fire. “You’ve carried this burden alone for too long. The world knows you as the War God, but we know you as the man who never abandoned his people, even when everyone else turned their back. We’re here—not because we have to, but because we choose to.”Danniel's gaze softened, just slightly. Their words stirred something deep in him. For a moment, the chains of loneliness that had wrapped around his heart for years seemed to crack.But the generals weren’t impressed.One of them scoffed loudly. “So what? A few loyal dogs at your side? Do you think that changes the fact that this
The Fractured Pact
The ground tore open with a deafening crack, swallowing the edge of the path in a spray of rock and black fire. Brown barely managed to grab the cart’s frame with one hand, the other clutching the starlight shard.The Shadowcaster descended into the rift like a phantom, cloak billowing, its faceless visage turning toward him. The air around it warped—light dimming, heat bleeding away.“Brown!” Clara’s voice rang out, strained but fierce. She sprinted through the chaos, slicing down a rider who got in her way. Eva was already moving toward him, her hands weaving sigils in the air, her white magic flaring brighter against the gloom.The Shadowcaster lifted a hand. The spectral beasts surged upward again—this time larger, faster, their fangs dripping with shadows that hissed when they touched the ground.Brown tossed the shard to Eva. “Keep it safe!”“You’re insane!” she shouted back.“Been told that before.”Clara skidded into place beside him, back-to-back. “You cover high, I’ll carve
Down the Slope
The meeting room was small, windowless, and dimly lit, the hum of an old ceiling fan the only sound as they filed in. Dann took the head of the table, Brown leaned casually against the far wall, and Clara and Eva ended up sitting directly across from each other, like two opposing queens in a game neither intended to lose.Dann cleared his throat. “We’ve confirmed the convoy carrying the second fragment will cross through the Dusk Pass in two days. Security is heavier than we anticipated—triple guard rotation, aerial scouts, and…” he glanced at Brown, “…they’ve brought in a Shadowcaster.”Clara’s brow furrowed. “A Shadowcaster? That means Varek’s anticipating us.” She leaned forward slightly, her tone crisp. “We’ll need diversionary teams on both flanks, and someone who knows how to counter dark wards.”Eva smirked faintly. “Or someone who can bypass them entirely. Which—” she looked at Dann, not Clara—“I’ve already arranged. You don’t need to split forces.”Clara’s eyes narrowed. “You
About Dave
Brown and Clara arrived at the mansion just as the tension between Jeremy and Dann was thick enough to slice with a blade. The sound of their hurried footsteps echoed in the grand hallway before they appeared at the doorway—Brown, his soldier’s posture rigid, and Clara, her eyes scanning the room like a hawk.“Dave,” Brown’s voice was deep, commanding attention without trying. “What’s going on here?”Jeremy’s smirk twitched, but he didn’t look away from Dave. “Ah, perfect timing,” he said with false cheer. “Looks like the cavalry’s here. Or maybe… the audience.”Clara crossed her arms, unimpressed. “We heard enough from the hallway to know you’re trying to stir trouble again, Jeremy.” Her tone was sharp, protective of Dave.Jeremy chuckled low. “Protective little friends you have here, Dave. Cute.”Brown stepped forward, closing the distance between them with deliberate slowness. “You don’t want to test my patience, Jeremy. I’ve heard the rumors. I know you’ve been poking around place
When the Boy Spoken
The world held its breath.In temples carved into cliff sides, in ruins buried beneath desert sands, in the crystal monasteries of the North — they heard it.A voice.No, not a voice — a commandment.Aetherion, kneeling in the void, trembled as the sound surged from his mouth. It wasn’t in any known tongue, yet all who heard it understood.“Wake.”And far above, reality answered.In the Forbidden NorthA slumbering mountain cracked.Not from earthquake — but from stirring.Beneath its peak, the Thirteenth Gate shuddered. The silver chains that bound it hissed with steam. One broke.An ancient guardian — a creature of living frost and flame — opened its eyes for the first time in ten thousand years."The Voice… has returned.”At the Edge of the Red ForestA woman in white, blindfolded with threads of starlight, dropped her goblet.Blood-red wine spilled over her altar.The High Seer of Ellvyr collapsed, her body twitching in seizure, before rasping a name not heard since the first gods
