Soren.It's been almost two weeks, and we haven't been able to come up with any idea or possible solution to deal with what awaited us.I would have gone back to Lady Ollina for her to better explain what she had meant by the stone and the female warrior. Yet, she didn't give explanations to anything. She spoke more in parables, and you had to be the one to find meaning in what she had said.I craned my neck from to side and leaned back into my desk. I picked up a red ballpoint. I flipped it between my index finger and thumb as my eyes scanned the screen before me.Ked was able to bring out the names of some hunters across Veridian. Hunters who were specialized in making weapons that could kill animals and those that were bigger than them. I wanted to see if any of them were able to come up with any idea of what we could do if there was any weapon that could be used on those beasts that were waiting to ravage us.We had come up with like ten names. Some which I heard were no longer
AstridFrostborn up in the North. I had been restless. I had news from Darson during our training this morning. How would I be able to reach up in the North to find out if everything was okay, if everyone was in good condition? My mind reeled at the thought of everyone being okay. Of course, they had done me wrong, but I had people in that pack that I cared for, and things like this normally made me worry. There was Amira in the pack. There were others and other innocent people who wouldn't have any choice but to stay in that pack, and listening to this really made my heart hurt. I had lost all will to train because I didn't know what to do anymore. "Why are you so worried about the people up in the North? I think they can do something, okay? See if they can come together. You know, put their heads together to come up with a possible solution just as we are doing here in the South. You don't really have to worry about them." I sat still across from Willa, my hands folded inside my ti
AstridI should be in my office right now, thinking about possible solutions to this upcoming problem. However, I have been with Astrid for most of the night. I have literally thought about the entire thing and couldn't come up with a possible solution. The Female Warrior, the Headstone, and all of that—nothing was even adding up. I decided to let it rest for a bit, and I would come back to it afterwards. I just needed to clear my mind of certain things, things that weren't adding up at all, and Lady Ollina wasn't someone that you could keep asking her for explanations over and over again. Once she said something, that was it. She wasn't giving any explanation, and she mostly spoke in parables, something that I didn't even quite understand. But then, I knew that there was a Female Warrior and a Stone somewhere that could be the possible solution to this problem that was about to come to us. Until then, we had to keep searching. Even when I had asked Astrid about the stone, she said sh
AstridHe kept himself busy as the day went by. However, I didn't stop checking up on him, moving closer sometimes during the night or during the day and just having a couple of conversations. Each one of them would lead to stolen, abrupt kisses, which I was somehow getting addicted to for the first time, and from every kiss we had, I could say that he enjoyed it as well. We never moved past that, and I hadn't once had a vision of myself having that particular moment with him. At this moment, I didn't even care if he took all of me and never showed up again. I have had a lot of disappointment, and I wouldn't mind if he had to disappoint me again. I watched him from the balcony of the first floor as he talked to some kids playing in the courtyard. This would be my first time seeing him with kids like this because the first time I had come here, I rarely saw kids close to him, and most of them would usually sprint or just stand by when he passed. But to my greatest surprise, he seemed
AstridI hadn't seen Soren after he left for the council meeting. Perhaps he had been struggling to figure out what to do with the current situation. It was something that needed to be acted upon because if anything like the dream I had was to come true, then none of us would be left alive in Veridian. These creatures seemed to be wild and angry; the way they killed was like they were out for revenge, trying to get something that had been taken from them. If a careful plan was not devised to get rid of them, then there would be nothing left of Veridian in the next year. We didn't know when they were planning to attack, but from how they had been constantly surfacing, it meant their attack, their invasion, would be at any time. They would probably take us unaware, and this wasn't exactly what we needed. Although I was worried, my mind couldn't get off the fact that when this thing happened, the Red Club Pack would be affected as well, and I really had no idea if news of these Frostb
Soren.The first thing I did was send out a communique throughout the different packs in the South.I had no idea if the people in the North or West had heard about them or seen them, but I had to notify my side of Veridian.It consists of fifteen packs and, presently, in the Council Hall, we had just about twelve packs representing. I didn't have the time to ask about the others; we had to get into this as quickly as possible.I hadn't believed all these rumors about Frostborn until I saw them with my own eyes yesterday when I took a run with Astrid.My father had been at the dam supervising the work, which is why he hadn't been in the pack all this time. We had an argument the other day after he told me that there had been rumors about these creatures, and the rumors had been intensifying given that some people had been killed in the East by these Frostborn.I didn't agree because I had grown up with the myth of these things and never believed they were real.
