The following morning, Castle Nocturne awakened to grim news.

The ancient prison was failing.

The Devourer was stirring.

And for the first time in thousands of years, the supernatural world faced a threat greater than war.

The atmosphere throughout the castle had changed.

Fear lingered in every corridor.

Servants whispered.

Nobles argued.

Generals prepared defenses.

Even the queens seemed more serious than usual.

No one could ignore the truth anymore.

Time was running out.

  • Bound to the First Blood   Chapter 27: The Echoes of Darkness

    The sanctuary trembled.Silver crystals shattered across the floor like falling stars.Ancient pillars groaned.The hidden city beneath Aetherion shook as though the world itself were protesting the words that had just been spoken."Elara."The voice echoed again inside her mind.Deep.Ancient.Hungry.Unlike Luna's gentle presence, the Devourer's voice felt wrong.It slithered through her thoughts like a living shadow.Watching.Waiting.Patient.Elara's entire body stiffened.She could still hear it.Still feel it.Like icy fingers brushing against her soul."Elara!"Lucien's voice cut through the chaos.Strong hands grabbed her shoulders.The sudden contact pulled her back to reality.The trembling sanctuary returned to focus.The frightened warriors.The shattered crystals.The worried faces surrounding her.Lucien's crimson eyes searched hers."What happened?"Elara swallowed hard."He spoke to me."Silence.Everyone in the chamber froze.Even Luna."The Devourer?"Kael's voice s

    The sanctuary trembled.Silver crystals hanging from the ceiling shook violently.Dust drifted through the air.Ancient pillars groaned under invisible pressure.And for the first time since meeting Luna—Fear appeared on her face.Not concern.Not caution.Fear.The sight alone sent a chill through everyone present.If the First Moonborn feared something, then that something was far beyond ordinary danger."The Devourer..."Lucien stepped forward.His crimson eyes narrowed."You know where it is."It wasn't a question.Luna slowly turned toward him.The ancient woman seemed older suddenly.Wearier.As though thousands of years had settled upon her shoulders all at once."I always knew."The answer echoed through the chamber.Nobody liked hearing it.Kael folded his massive arms."You said it was imprisoned.""It is."Luna's silver eyes darkened."For now."The emphasis on those two words made several warriors uneasy.The sanctuary trembled again.A deeper vibration this time.Somethi

  • Bound to the First Blood   Chapter 25: The Sanctuary of Luna

    The ancient staircase seemed endless.Each step carried the expedition deeper beneath the ruins of Aetherion.Deeper into secrets buried for three thousand years.The air felt different here.Pure.Ancient.Alive.Silver runes illuminated the walls around them, casting a gentle glow across the stone passage.After their battle with the corrupted creature above, everyone remained on high alert.Weapons stayed drawn.Magic lingered at the fingertips of the witches.No one trusted the silence.Not anymore.---Eventually, the staircase ended.And the sight before them stole their breath away.An underground city stretched endlessly into the darkness.Magnificent silver towers rose toward a ceiling filled with glowing crystals that resembled stars.Crystal rivers flowed through ancient streets.Moonlight-colored bridges connected enormous structures.The city looked untouched by time.Perfectly preserved.As though its people had only just left.For several moments, no one spoke.Even Luc

    Silver light exploded across the temple.The force of it shook the ancient ruins.Stone pillars cracked.Dust rained from the ceiling.The monstrous creature was thrown backward before it could reach Elara.For a brief moment, everything became blinding white.No one could see.No one could move.Only the power of the Moonborn filled the temple.Ancient.Beautiful.Terrifying.---When the light finally faded, silence followed.The warriors slowly looked toward the center of the chamber.Then froze.Elara stood surrounded by silver moonlight.Ancient runes glowed across her arms and neck.Her golden eyes had once again transformed into silver.Yet this time, something was different.She was conscious.In control.The power wasn't consuming her.She was wielding it.Lucien stared.Kael stared.Everyone stared.Even the monstrous creature hesitated.For the first time since appearing, it looked uncertain.Afraid.---Inside her mind, Luna's voice remained calm."Good."Elara clenched he

  • Bound to the First Blood   Chapter 23: The Voice of Luna

    The ancient temple trembled.Dust drifted from the ceiling.Silver runes illuminated the darkness.And within Elara's mind, the mysterious voice continued speaking."I have waited for you."The words echoed through her soul.Ancient.Powerful.Familiar.Almost comforting.Yet also terrifying.Because she had no idea who—or what—Luna truly was.Around her, the members of the expedition stood frozen.Lucien's crimson eyes remained fixed on her.Kael's expression had darkened.The witches looked alarmed.Everyone could see something was happening.Even if only Elara could hear it.---"Who are you?"Elara whispered again.The silver light inside the temple intensified.The runes covering the walls suddenly began moving.Shifting.Rearranging themselves.As though responding to her presence."I am the First Moon."The answer confused her."What does that mean?"For a moment, silence followed.Then Luna spoke again."Long before kingdoms existed..."The temple around them vanished.Or at l

  • Bound to the First Blood   Chapter 22: The Ruins of Aetherion

    The expedition departed at dawn.Dark clouds stretched across the horizon as the massive gates of Castle Nocturne slowly opened.Rows of mounted warriors waited in formation.Vampires.Werewolves.Witches.An alliance that would have seemed impossible only months ago.Yet now they rode together toward a common enemy.The Devourer.Elara sat atop a black horse beside Lucien.The cool morning wind brushed against her face.For the first time since arriving in Noctis, she was leaving the kingdom.Part of her felt excited.Another part felt terrified.Mostly terrified.---The expedition consisted of thirty elite warriors.The four queens remained behind to govern Noctis during Lucien's absence.Much to Seraphina's annoyance."I should be coming."Lucien had ignored her complaint."I should definitely be coming."He ignored that one too.By the end of the argument, Seraphina had threatened to follow them secretly.No one was entirely convinced she wouldn't.---The journey lasted several
