The Road to Solenfall

The mist that rose from the valley that morning clung to everything like breath on glass soft, cold, and impossible to shake. The world felt quieter than it should have been. Even the wolves, usually restless at dawn, moved in silence. The earth beneath their boots was damp from the night’s rain, the scent of pine and iron heavy in the air.

Lyra rode at the front of the column, her cloak pulled close around her, eyes fixed on the faint outline of mountains ahead. Somewhere beyond them lay Solenfall — a ruin older than memory, and now the epicenter of the threat that could unmake their world. The path wound narrow and treacherous, carved through cliffs and shadowed ridges. Every so often, a cry of an unseen hawk echoed above, sharp and haunting.

Kael rode beside her, one hand loosely gripping the reins, the other resting on the hilt of his sword. He hadn’t said much since they’d left the fortress, but his silence wasn’t cold. It was focused, protective. Whenever L

    Where the Moonlight EndsMorning came slowly over the bayou. Mist hung between the cypress trees, curling around the water like breath that refused to fade. Somewhere, a heron lifted its wings, and the sound of them breaking the stillness felt like the beginning of something new.Lyra stood on the porch of the small cabin she and Kael had built with their own hands. It wasn’t much..rough timber, crooked windows, the scent of pine and salt but it was theirs. After years of blood, prophecy, and running, she had learned that peace never arrived with a trumpet’s call. It came like this: quiet mornings, a cup of coffee warming her palms, the steady rhythm of Kael’s footsteps behind her.He came out now, shirt unbuttoned, hair still damp from the river. “You’re awake before the sun again,” he said, smiling the way he did only for her.She shrugged. “Old habits. My wolf still thinks the world needs guarding.”Kael leaned against the railing beside her. “Maybe it does. Just… not fro

    The Red Moon’s ChoiceThe Red Moon rose like an open wound in the sky.Its light spilled across the valley, staining every leaf, every wolf, every trembling heart beneath it. The air hummed with power, ancient, suffocating, and alive, the kind that whispered to the bones and made even the strongest bow their heads.Lyra stood at the center of the stone circle. Her cloak billowed in the wind, her silver hair gleaming blood-red under the moonlight. Around her, the gathered wolves both her pack and Kael's, waited in silence. No one dared to move. No one dared to speak.Because tonight was not just another full moon.Tonight, the prophecy would claim its end.Kael stood just behind her. His presence was steady, like a pulse she could feel even without looking back. The bond between them..fragile once, but now rooted in something stronger than fate held her upright.“Lyra.” Elder Helene’s voice broke the silence, soft but commanding. “The Moon calls. The balance must be restored.”Lyra’s t

    The Night Before the Red MoonThe sun was setting in a blaze of orange and blood-red when Lyra climbed to the ridge above the camp. Below, the valley shimmered in twilight, quiet except for the distant murmur of wolves preparing for the night.It had been three days since the Moon’s warning. Three days since the forest whispered her fate back to her with every breath of wind. Every sunrise had felt heavier, every heartbeat louder, as if the earth itself waited for her to choose.Tomorrow night, the full moon will rise again. The Red Moon, the one that had cursed and freed her all at once.Lyra stood alone, her silver hair catching the dying light like liquid metal. The wind tugged at her cloak, carrying the scent of the sea and something older, something ancient, stirring beneath her skin.“Running from me again?” Kael’s voice came softly from behind her.She didn’t turn. “I’m not running.”He stepped closer, the sound of his boots crunching against stone. “Then why are you up here al

    The Whisper Beneath the MoonThe dawn after the moon run was unnaturally quiet.The forest that had thrummed with howls and laughter just hours ago now sat in stillness. Dew clung to the grass like fragile glass beads, and the scent of pine was heavy in the air.Lyra woke slowly, her body still humming from the transformation, the connection, the sheer energy of the night before. Her dreams had been strange, soft voices, fragments of light, the faint echo of her name spoken in a tone that didn’t belong to this world.She reached out instinctively, her hand brushing against warm skin. Kael was still asleep beside her, his arm draped loosely over her waist, his breathing steady. His presence was grounding, his warmth a reminder that she was here, real, alive.For a long moment, she just watched him. There was a peace in his expression that she rarely saw without the weight of command or danger pressing down on him. The lines at the corner of his eyes softened, his jaw relaxed. He looked

    Under the Silver MoonThe night sky was impossibly clear.For the first time in months, the moon hung full and round above the forests of Blood Moon territory…no longer a sign of war or omen, but something sacred. Its silver glow spilled over the gathering of wolves that filled the clearing, painting every face, every scar, in light that felt almost forgiving.Lyra stood at the center of it all, the weight of a hundred eyes on her. Her cloak billowed softly in the night breeze, silver threads glinting as if the moon herself had stitched them in.It was their first moon run since the war, the first time the packs of Blood Moon, Crescent Hollow, and Redridge had gathered as one. The tension was thick, though most tried to hide it. Old rivalries didn’t fade easily, even under shared victory.Kael stepped up beside her, his presence steady as ever. He didn’t speak, but he didn’t need to. His nearness had become her calm, the silent reassurance that whatever happened tonight, she wasn’t al

    The New DawnThe morning came softly.Lyra woke to the sound of wind rustling through the curtains and sunlight spilling across the room in ribbons. For a long while, she simply lay there, eyes half-open, listening to the world outside her window..the quiet hum of the settlement coming to life.It had been weeks since the war ended, yet sometimes she still woke expecting to hear the echoes of battle. But instead, there was only birdsong. Only peace.Kael stirred beside her, his arm resting loosely over her waist. His breathing was even, his warmth grounding. For a man who had seen so much blood and chaos, he looked impossibly calm when he slept. Lyra smiled faintly and brushed a lock of hair from his forehead.She slipped from the bed, padding across the wooden floor to the balcony. The air outside was crisp and smelled of pine. Below, the pack’s courtyard was already alive…warriors sparring, healers tending to wounds that were finally beginning to heal clean, children laughing in way
