The next day began as Nate wished their last time had been. He patted the bed by his side and felt a tiny warm body breathing steadily. He pulled her closer, feeling her back against his chest. She stirred besides him and her eyes fluttered open, searching for his own. A content smile made its way to her face. “Morning, Nate” she said yawning, but then turned back again, closed her eyes, and adjusted her hair so he could fit into the crook of her neck. He wouldn’t go back to sleep but didn’t mind holding her close while placing feather kisses on her exposed neck while she stalled to get up.

They arrived at Nate’s new assigned village around noon and were glad to have at least a few hours to get to know the place before sundown. Their first stop was the local street market, where they would be able to find information about a place to rent, the nearby forest and the major activities of the most prominent villagers.It was already an improvement in comparison to their old village, where the closest thing they had to a street market was a monthly trade with three or four stalls.Bree felt more at home in that place than she fe

It didn’t take them long to fall into a comfortable routine. Bree build a beautiful little house for them, not far from the river and surrounded by large old trees. They agreed there would be no risk of the Council finding out he wasn’t living in the village because the rent would be paid. As a safety measure, he would visit the hut regularly, maybe burn something up every now and then to assure his signature remained strong. They went back to a steady training schedule that was often cut short by their inability to keep their ha

Nate went to his hut with a throbbing headache. The flawless fantasy he had created of his life was shattered and he couldn’t even blame anyone. He knew Bree was right, at least to a certain extent. As hard as he tried, he couldn’t picture his nature inclined and painstakingly peaceful lover in the setting he would be placed after the ascension.There would be war and conflict wherever they sent him, which was the main reason he made it his life’s goal. Of course, when he chose this path it was just a way to use his aggressive energy and skills for something that wouldn’t get him in trouble with the law and make him a few bucks.

Klaus was livid that the man in front of him kept playing dumb. They had multiple sorcerers working on the map and on its two years of existence, never had it ever been wrong.Several decisions were made by the ascended members based on its readings and now that insignificant and barely magical being in front of him was questioning it! How dare him.And adding to his anger was the fact that he couldn’t throw it in his face. Whoever decided the map was to be kept a secret never had to deal with such insubordinate scum. How he wanted to dr

Nate, followed closely by Klaus and the warriors, made his way to the forest. There was no way to escape the fight that was about to happen, and he hoped his idea was enough to get Bree ready. He touched the first tree he saw and set it on fire right away. “What the hell are you doing?” Klaus had already motioned three soldiers to surround him, in the event Nate couldn’t explain his action“That’s the only way to get past the safety measures she conjured. I’ll have to burn a few more, closer to the place I&

When the earth called for her earlier in distress, Bree went into the woods to figure it out. It didn’t take long for her to realize it was Nate warning her something was off. She wasn’t sure what it meant, since the last time they talked he walked out on her and left her to wonder if the future she imagined for them was gone for good.Brianna was willing to talk it through. Not just willing, she needed it. The months they spent living under the same roof showed her a life she never deemed possible, but now wanted more than anything. They were good together. Not only the romance they shared, but they could do so much for the land as a pair.

Nate almost lost it when he saw the new set of soldiers in front of him. His faith in the Council had already vanished after the forceful ways they approached him, but he expected a little more respect after over a decade of loyalty. At that moment he could feel only contempt towards the organization.They sent thirty men to the field. Ten upfront, and another twenty hidden in the shadows. The tactic was clear as day, exhaust and destroy. There was nothing he could say to convince them to act differently and from the information he gathered so far, they would have done the same regardless of his attitude.

The first rays of sunlight woke up an expended Brianna. It might not be possible to call it a restless night, because she collapsed from exhaustion and therefore had no dreams or mid-sleep awakenings, but the fact was that she felt even more tired than when she first closed her eyes. In her daze, she took a few minutes to grasp the events of the previous night. As soon as she did, she ran towards the ashes one more time hoping to find any change that could soothe her aching heart. The only difference, tough, was the pattern of the ashes that scattered even more during the night.

The ashes were scattered on the battlefield. There was no blood in the fallen arena, but there was clear evidence of the massacre. No animal dared approach the area, there was no noise in the air. It was as if the place was trapped in a void of sound, of movement, of life. But if anyone was paying close attention, they would see the change. It was subtle, like the climbing of a single ant into a picnic basket. But then it grew, as if that one little ant called for others and they gathered into so many that it was no longer possible to ignore the takeover. The ashes gathered around a single spot, pilling up to envelop that precious spark, the last thing clinging to life among the vast ruination
