RONAN'S POV

The smell was bad. Death and blood everywhere. Made me want to throw up.

Dead bodies all over the place. Darius's guys were scattered around like trash. Some had holes from bullets. Others had cuts from claws. Blood on the walls. Dark red that looked black.

I stepped over a dead guy by the door. His eyes looked at nothing. His mouth was open like he died yelling.

This place was hell.

Kael was behind me. Still holding Elara. She looked tiny in his arms. So white. Her heart stopped for two minutes before he got it going again. But she wasn't awake. Wasn't doing anything.

"We got to go," I said.

Kael didn't say nothing. Just stared at her face. Like looking at her would wake her up.

But I had stuff to do first.

Ryker was against the wall where I left him. Blood down his face from his busted nose. His left arm looked weird. Broke it probably.

    ELARA'S POVThe final journey took six weeks. Hit twelve remote locations. Each one is different. Each one challenging.The first stop was a mountain village. High peaks. Isolated. Snow everywhere.But the snow wasn't normal. People froze inside it. Not dead. Just suspended. Shadow had merged with ice somehow. Trapped them mid-motion."They're alive," Ronan said. Sensing with his Alpha abilities. "Barely. Heartbeats slow. Almost stopped."Kael circled the frozen villagers. Wolf instinct assessing threat. "How do we thaw them without killing them?"The baby pup reached out. Light pulsed from her tiny hands. Touched the nearest frozen person.The ice melted slowly. Carefully. The person gasped. Collapsed. Alive.We spent three days there. Thawing everyone. Teaching the local pack how to prevent it from happening again. Left light-bearers behind. Established anchors.The second location was worse. Island settlement. Ocean pack. Fishers and traders.The Shadow Blight had corrupted the sea

    ELARA'S POVThe morning after the ceremony, the sun was barely up, already people were waiting outside our rooms.Not celebrating anymore, these ones looked desperate, opened the door. A woman stood there. Middle-aged, leaning on a crutch. My left leg ended at the knee."Please," she said. "They said you could heal anything. Can you... can you give me back my leg?"My stomach dropped. "The disease took it?""Shadow corruption. Spread so fast. Healers had to remove it or I'd die." Her eyes pleaded. "But you purified the shadow. Can't you reverse what it did?"I wanted to say yes. I wanted to promise miracles."I can't reverse what's already gone. I'm sorry."Her face crumpled. "But you're the champion. You saved everyone.""I stopped the disease. But what it already took..." Shook my head. "Some things can't be healed."She left crying. Broke something in my chest watching her go.More came throughout the day. Man with chronic pain. A girl who couldn't speak anymore. A boy who lost his

I remembered them from months ago. Barren then. Brown. Dead.Now green shoots pushed through the soil. Small. Fragile. But alive.Farmers worked the land. Smiling. Actually smiling while they planted."Look at that," Elara said. Wonder in her voice."The land's healing," Ronan observed. "Stage three is starting already."The second village was louder. Children playing in the streets. Running. Laughing. A sound I hadn't heard in too long.An older woman sat outside her house. Knitting. Humming."Excuse me," I called to her. "How long have the children been playing again?"She looked up. Face wrinkled but eyes bright. "Week maybe? Fever broke. They got strong enough to run around." Smiled. "Thank the gods. Thought we'd lost them all.""The gods," I repeated. "Right."Moved on. More villages. More si

The healing stopped halfway. There's resistance. Shadow anchors we can't break."Before I could answer, another messenger arrived. Then another. Then two more.All the same story. Blocked healing. Shadow resistance. People dying while purification waves stopped at their borders.Looked at Kael. At Ronan. At baby guardian sleeping in my arms."We can't reach them all," I said. Voice flat.

Could take weeks to visit each one.""People don't have weeks."The moon guardian appeared. Translucent.
