  • Zach - the death assasin

    Hearing this, the general brow furrowed slightly, a microscopic shift in his rugged features.The captain scrambled to offer a saving grace before the General's wrath could manifest."Luckily, sir! Luckily, we were able to subdue the wolf. The great shadow beast took the brunt of our caustic strikes. It bled heavily before it slipped away. It is crippled, sir. It won’t be a threat to our next phase."The General remained entirely motionless. He did not offer praise. He did not voice frustration. He simply sat there, lost in the deep labyrinth of his own tactical thoughts.The flickering candlelight cast long, dancing shadows across his scarred face.Suddenly, the air in the tent shifted. The temperature plummeted.The general's eyes snapped open. They were a piercing, cold a

  • The rising tension

    The shadows in the far corner of the room began to writhe and churn like a boiling cauldron of black ink.The darkness coalesced, growing denser and larger until a massive, monstrous form began to materialize from the negative space.Out stepped Jam, the Shadow King Wolf.The legendary beast, normally a majestic and terrifying force of pure darkness, staggered heavily. His usual sleek, void-like fur was matted and torn. Along his dark flank, deep, jagged gashes wept a strange, smoking purple essence instead of blood. The wounds looked caustic, as if melted into his very spirit form.Jared’s eyes widened. A cold, volatile anger flared violently in his chest.

What the hell is this?". Kim asked, his voice shaking." I never expected the situation to be this worst ". Jared said his eyes filled with pityAssembling near the jagged mouth of the cavern were the remaining refugees and village hunters—a ragged, bloodied remnant of a once-proud people.The instant Jared’s towering figure came into view, a wave of profound reverence swept thr

  • The massive slaughter

    The northern ridge was burning, and the wind carried the stench of ash all the way down to the valley floor." Another battle?". Jason asked, his voice hoarse.Everyone then turned their attention to the rising smoke." I guess so...in that case, I don't exactly have time to waste over here. As a chief I must limit the casualties rate and protect my people". Jared saidHe instantly steadied himself.. He simply shifted his weight, drew a sharp breath into his lungs, and ran.No one saw exactly how he ran, it was just like a blur.. but someone like Jason swiftly saw how he moved without hesitation.He instantly sped and cover hundreds of meters within mere minutes.His speed was unnatural for someone his age, but to Jared...it simply felt natural.&nb

  • The slaughter

    The azure vortex of the portal swallowed them whole. One moment, Jared was standing on the polished white stone of the regional headquarters of the adventurer's guild, watching the nervous tilt of Kim’s shoulders.And then the portal swallowed them whole living nothing behindFor a split second, everything was weightless. Then, reality slammed back into place with the force of a physical blow.Jared’s boots hit solid ground, but the expected sensory markers of Spring Village were completely missing.It wasn't what he expected at all. At first, he had expected to see the village people working hard, or children playing around.But this wasn't the village, it is a battlefield." What the hell". Jared and Kim said in unison." What is going on!". Jared asked, his voice cracking with sorrow.Jared st
