The God Below

It began with the stone.

Not with a quake.Not with a cry.

Just pressure.

Like the breath of something ancient shifting beneath the skin of the world.

A long, slow inhale that never exhaled.

And the earth, patient, worn, complicit, held that breath like it remembered what came last time.

The Moon Seers were the first to feel it.

They did not live among cities or stars, but in caverns webbed with silver moss and mistlight. Deep places. Silent places. They painted their bodies in dustmilk and star-ash, and they sang only through silence, mouths cut, tongues cauterized, so that no false vision might ever leave their lips. Their dreams were prayers. Their screams were prophecy.

And tonight… they screamed.

Not words.

Not names.

But sound.

Raw and ripping and terrible.

Their cave walls cracked open in perfect, spiraling patterns. Veins of moonstone lit up like the bones of dead gods waking. Reflection bowls shattered, their waters boiling with no fire.

The oldest among them, older than memor

  • The Forgotten Heiress: Rise of The Lycan Queen   The Reaping Field

    They called it the Reaping Field long before Seren arrived.Not for what grew there, but for what was lost—what had been taken and never given back.The land bore no crops. It bore memories. And memory, Seren knew, could outlast even the most determined root.It was the kind of place that made the bravest scouts step softly, even if they wouldn’t say why.It’s nothing, the Emberhold mapmakers had said weeks ago, dismissing the northeast valley. No towers. No wards. No sigils. Just dead ground. Useless for strategy or shelter.But Seren felt the pull, low and insistent—a bruise hidden under scar tissue, too deep for words but too loud to ignore. So she led the march herself.The Ashborn and Moonbound flanked her, a silent column on battered legs. Unnamed wolves padded along the edges, noses twitching at scents only they could sense, their ears laid flat in a way that was more warning than fear.Vessa was at Seren’s back, quiet for once. Kael stayed behind, still mending after the last

  • The Forgotten Heiress: Rise of The Lycan Queen   The Severing

    The ritual circle was not so much drawn as remembered.Its lines cut deep in the soil with a blade that sang with old magic, each of its nine runes filled with the blood of a woman who’d lived too many lives under too many names. Storm ash dusted the lines, swirling whenever the wind dared to creep over Emberhold’s battlements. It was a night of no moon, and the air trembled as if the sky itself feared what was about to unfold.Seren entered the circle barefoot.Her feet, so often stained with the blood of battle, looked pale and small in the spectral blue fire she coaxed from the rune at the eastmost point. She wore no crown. No cloak. Nothing but the memory of everything she’d survived, and the jagged, living pain of what she carried now—the mark of the Storm Pact, a living god’s brand, pulsing black-violet along her spine, as if eager to witness her final defiance.Tonight, she would not kneel.Tonight, she would sever the cord between herself and the god who’d named her instrument

  • The Forgotten Heiress: Rise of The Lycan Queen   Sirelia’s Last Love

    The Hollow Garden bloomed only in silence.Not the silence of emptiness or death—but the hush that comes when memory grows so thick it cannot bear to speak. Hidden deep beneath the Dustborn citadel, it curled through catacombs that no longer had names. Its roots drank the bones of kings, its air thick with the perfume of grief and secrets. The world above—war councils, shifting allegiances, the endless politics of power—forgot about this place. Only one ever returned.Sirelia descended alone. No crown, no veil, no guards. Here, the Dreamcloak’s dustlight faded to the dullest shimmer, more like a memory than armour. She breathed in the cold air, feeling each inhale scrape her throat raw. Her fingers traced the stone walls, soft now with moss and the passing of centuries. Here and there, bone fragments peeked through the roots—reminders of oaths kept and broken.She wondered, as she walked, if she was trespassing on her own heart.At the bottom, the path widened into a quiet chamber, li

  • The Forgotten Heiress: Rise of The Lycan Queen   The Day the Light Walked

    No one expected her to rise from the crater.Not the Ashborn, their faces streaked with the soot of defeat, their howls fractured on the night air. Not the Dustborn warlord who’d shattered the ravine with war-chants older than any living memory, who’d worn bone from dead gods and bathed in the dust of crumbled empires. Not Vessa, her jaw split and bloody, sword snapped, hope winnowed to a single breath. Least of all, not Seren herself.The battlefield was a scar, ripped open beneath a red sky that refused to heal. Smoke wound up from the broken earth like the breath of someone dying, curling around battered bodies and broken sigils. The land hissed where blood had soaked too deep; it was as if the world itself rejected what had happened here, refusing even to keep the dead warm.For hours, the wolves had retreated, their line shattered. Ashborn banners, so bright at dawn, now hung limp and scorched. The Dustborn pressed on, relentless, an army trained not to win but to erase. With spe

  • The Forgotten Heiress: Rise of The Lycan Queen   Seren and the Wolves Unnamed

    The third night after the siege, the wind shifted.It wasn’t the usual howling breath of the storm, nor the bitter bite of war’s fury. This wind came quietly, rolling in from the north with a chill so ancient it seemed to suck warmth from the very air itself. It was a wind older than memory, older than the stones of Emberhold. It whispered of things forgotten, things better left undisturbed.The wolves of Emberhold were the first to feel it. They rose silently from their dens, fur bristling like dark waves under the moonlight. Their heads lifted, noses turned skyward, eyes reflecting the cold stars above. No call was sounded. No commands given. But something primal, something deeper than any spoken word, stirred inside them. A summons that no man had sent, but one that demanded obedience.Saphira stood motionless beside the inner fireline, fingers wrapped tight around the haft of her spear. The warmth of the fire did little to thaw the chill climbing up her spine.“That wind,” she mur
