The Full Moon's Bite 2.

“The Eclipse may hide her face, but the tide still remembers her pull.” – Silver-maned Beast Being Proverb --- As the eclipse crept across the face of the full moon, shadows thickened within the chamber like a closing jaw. Sniffia’s body strained against the silver chains, her breath growing louder—ragged, trembling, and defiant. Then, without warning, a white cloth materialized over her mouth, wrapping itself tight like a living spell. Everyone turned, startled. Sniffia’s golden eyes glinted above the cloth—confused, wary… and glowing brighter with every passing second. Then the eclipse fully swallowed the moon, casting the chamber into a surreal half-light. At that exact moment, a ruckus echoed down the corridor—boot steps, laughter, and something heavy being dragged. Peirce and Node burst in, flushed, hauling a monstrous beast by its neck. “We finally got it!” Peirce announced, grinning with mud-smeared pride. “You made us late just because you couldn’t control your

The Moon's True Heir.

"ONLY IN TOTAL DARKNESS DOES TRUE FORM REVEAL ITSELF." — Silver-maned Beast Being Proverb---The eclipse glowed.Inside the cave, its light bled like a wound across the stone—diluted, unnatural, as if the moon had been swallowed and was struggling to breathe. Shadows bent at crooked angles. The cavernous walls flickered with silver pulses, and crystals embedded in the rock trembled faintly, echoing a pulse that wasn’t their own. Pools of ancient water mirrored the half-lit sky, rippling with the breath of something watching.Blotted out—not like the eye of a god, but like the soul of a star turning away. A celestial truth folding inward. As if the universe itself dared not watch what came next.And in that vast, holy shadow, Sniffia arched.Not in pain. In release.No scream tore from her lips—only a deep, slow exhale, like the sigh of a forgotten forest awakening after a thousand winters. Her limbs trembled, not with fear, but surrender. Lines of light splintered across her skin, gl

Verdant Wrath.

The wind turned feral.Leaves didn’t dance—they fled. A cyclone of emerald light ripped through the clearing, and from its heart stepped a figure no longer quite a boy… not yet a god.Dryad.Barefoot. Breathless. Unrecognizable.He stood taller than memory dared allow. His once-grey hair now shimmered with green strands, catching the moonlight like moss spun into silk. Freckles were constellations mapped across his cheeks. Bark curled around his shoulders like armor. Blossoms pulsed along his collarbones, and vines slithered behind him like loyal familiars. His metallic shield gleamed at his side, forged in a dull shimmer that seemed older than steel itself. And his eyes—green-gold—burned as if lit by the heartwood of the world.The Nymph’s royal mark glowed faintly down his throat—a half-divine, half-forgotten lineage. Both outlawed. Both inevitable.Luna’s voice cracked the stillness. “Dryad…?”Beside her, Sniffia’s mother raised an eyebrow. “Another one of my daughter’s lovers?”Dr

Verdant Wrath 2.

Lashing tendrils of animated vines erupted from the earth like serpents of wrath, tearing toward the four warriors in a savage onslaught. Peirce reacted instantly—his muddy feet spun mid-air as he flipped over a twisting stalk, barely missing a slash aimed for his gut. His sweat-slicked body glinted under the canopy light as he landed with a low skid, eyes sharp, breath steady.Beside him, Sniffia let out a hiss, her venom-yellow eyes narrowing. With a savage whirl, she lunged—her claws slicing through the living vines in rapid succession. Their screeches were almost sentient, echoing like shrieks of the forest itself. The air shimmered around her; she moved with uncanny speed, darting, twisting, her form fluid like wind and fire.Node danced between them, his twin blades flashing in synchronized arcs. One blade parried a vine aimed for his thigh; the other dismembered a spiked tip headed for his neck. His expression was calm but his footing precise, never overextending—he was the qui

Verdant Fracture.

Sniffia darted through the battlefield on all fours, claws raking the earth, her silver-furred body a blur against the cracked terrain. Towering vines—like sentient tree limbs—whipped through the air, trying to entangle her, to crush her. She dodged left, right, twisted midair, and ducked low. But one vine snagged her leg. A sickening crack echoed as her ankle snapped—and mutated.The vine's touch was infectious.Her limb pulsed, grotesquely stretching with writhing bark-like patterns. But Sniffia didn’t stop. Her regeneration kicked in—her veins glowing gold—and she snarled through the pain, tearing herself free as the corrupted skin peeled off like burning parchment.Beside her, Luna charged with a scream, her massive, fiery-red arm swinging at Dryad with pulverizing force.But Dryad vanished—teleporting just before impact, his armored figure blurring like shattered glass. He reappeared behind Luna. Another swing. Gone again.“STOP RUNNING!” Luna roared.Dryad reappeared behind Snif

What Remains Of Us.

A trembling breath escaped Peirce’s lips as he sank to his knees, the weight of the fight pressing hard on his shoulders. His eyes flicked across the torn-up ground, still smoldering with dying embers, before settling on Node. “How…?” His voice cracked, raw with disbelief.Node staggered backward and fell onto his backside, one hand gripping the bloodied blade tight enough for his knuckles to whiten, the other pressed firmly to the torn, bloodstained fabric over his chest. Though the bleeding had stopped, the wound gaped—a raw, ugly reminder of the fight. He winced, but a crooked, defiant smile tugged at his lips.“Come on,” he panted, shifting painfully as he balanced the bloodied blade across his lap. Fresh red droplets fell onto the churned earth below. He winced, pressing his free hand hard to the sticky fabric over his chest. “A guy like me, fighting alongside the two of you? I needed something to even the field.” His voice cracked, but a flicker of pride lit his eyes. “That’s t
