Waiting For Someone
Malachar reached the Black River just before dawn when the sky was still dark and a thin mist floated across the water like a living shroud that refused to lift. He stopped at the edge of the river and stared across the wide expanse, searching for any sign of the mountains that should have been visible on the other side, yet the fog hid everything beyond a few meters. He knew Lily had crossed this river because the undead messenger had told him so before he continued his lonely journey through the mountains without rest. Now that he stood before the water, one clear problem blocked his path, and it was not something he could simply destroy with force. There was no bridge anywhere in sight, only the endless stretch of black water that moved slowly and carried a deep, sleeping power beneath its surface.Malachar looked carefully to the left and then to the right, searching for any alternative crossing or hidden path that might allow him to continue without delay. Nothing appeared on e
Too Late
Kane stepped through the Gate of Balance and immediately felt something change. The heavy pressure that had surrounded him on the White Road disappeared, replaced by cold mountain air that filled his lungs. For a moment, he simply stood there, realizing he had finally returned.Mira stepped through behind him and looked around in confusion. The strange white mist was gone, along with the ancient road and the two statues guarding the gate. Only a rocky path stretched before them, surrounded by dark mountains and tall trees swaying beneath the evening sky.Kane looked down at his hands, then toward the road ahead. Everything looked normal, but something felt wrong. The world seemed quieter than he remembered, and the air carried a strange feeling that made his stomach tighten.Mira noticed his expression. "What is it?" she asked. Kane slowly shook his head. "I don't know. Something is different." He looked toward the sky and noticed the position of the sun. His face suddenly changed whe
The Cure
Elias burst through the sanctuary gates with the giant warriors close behind him. Sweat covered every face, and their breathing was heavy after the long journey. The Moonroot Crystal glowed softly inside his cloak, while everyone waiting in the courtyard immediately rushed toward them with hope filling their hearts. Seraphine stood so quickly that the chair behind her fell onto the floor. Lily remained asleep in her arms as she hurried across the courtyard. The moment she reached Elias, her eyes searched his face before looking at the bundle wrapped carefully beneath his cloak without speaking. Elias slowly opened his cloak and revealed the Moonroot Crystal resting inside both hands. Silver light spread across the courtyard, making every carved stone around them shine softly beneath its gentle glow. "We found it," Elias said quietly. "We brought it back before moonrise." Relief washed over Seraphine's face so suddenly that tears filled her eyes. She wanted to thank him, but the wor
Way to the Moonlit Hollow
Elias carefully folded the old map and slipped it inside his cloak. He looked at Seraphine one last time before turning toward the sanctuary gate. "I will bring the Moonroot Crystal back," he said quietly. "No matter what stands in the way."Seraphine held Lily closer, forcing herself to nod even though fear filled her heart. "Come back safely," she whispered. "All of you." Elias gave a small smile before turning away. He knew if he looked back again, leaving would become much harder.The giant chieftain raised his heavy axe onto his shoulder and looked at five of his strongest warriors. "You heard the healer," he said firmly. "We have little time. Stay close, watch each other's backs, and do not underestimate anything waiting inside the Moonlit Hollow."Without another word, the small group left the sanctuary behind. The quiet sounds of flowing water slowly disappeared as they entered the ancient forest. Tall white trees surrounded them, their branches blocking most of the evening su
The Price Of The Cure
The boat finally reached the other side of the Black River just before sunset. The moment Seraphine stepped onto the shore with Lily in her arms, she felt something change. The cold weight that had followed them across the river was gone, but a different feeling settled inside her heart. She could not explain it, yet she knew they had entered a place unlike anywhere they had ever seen. Elias climbed onto the shore behind her while the giant warriors helped secure the boat. The ferryman remained where he was, saying nothing. He simply watched them with tired eyes before slowly pushing the boat away from the bank. Within moments, the thick mist swallowed both him and the river until they completely disappeared from sight. Seraphine looked around carefully. Ancient stone pillars stood between tall white trees, their surfaces covered with faded carvings. Flowers of every color grew across the quiet valley, and the air carried a gentle scent that made her feel strangely calm. For the fir
My Time To Hunt
The cold wind followed Malachar as he left the fortress behind. He walked alone through the broken mountains without looking back. Every step carried him farther from his army, but he did not hesitate. He knew speed mattered more now than numbers. If he reached Lily first, everything else could still be controlled.Behind him, the skeleton captain stood at the fortress entrance, watching his king disappear into the distance. None of the undead dared follow without permission. Tomas remained inside the hall, standing perfectly still with black mist drifting from his eyes. His strange smile never faded, making every undead soldier around him remain frozen in uneasy silence.Far away, hidden among the cliffs, several figures watched Malachar from the shadows. They wore long gray cloaks marked with the silver crest of the Church. They had followed his movements since dawn, careful to stay outside the range of his senses. None of them expected the Old Necromancer King to leave his army beh
