Chapter 170:The high chancellor

The prison fell silent.Nova stared toward the tunnel leading to the surface.Her heart refused to believe what she had heard."Lord... Cassian?"The name escaped her lips in a whisper.Memories flooded her mind.The man who had taught her royal history.Who had praised her during her first council meeting.Who had stood beside King Kael for as long as she could remember.The man she had called Uncle Cassian as a child.Commander Elara's expression darkened."You know him?"Nova nodded slowly."He's my father's High Chancellor."Kieran's jaw tightened."And he knows you're here."A heavy silence settled over the chamber.No one wanted to consider what that meant.Measured footsteps echoed down the ancient corridor.Not hurried.Not cautious.Confident.A lone figure emerged from the shadows.Lord Cassian looked almost exactly as Nova remembered him.Tall.Elegant.Silver streaks ran through his dark hair, though his posture remained straight and commanding.He wore the deep blue cloak

Chapter 171:The first lie

The words echoed through the prison."It imprisons the Moon Goddess herself."No one moved.No one spoke.Even the Shadow Fangs seemed caught off guard.Nova stared at Lord Cassian."What did you just say?"Cassian remained calm."I said the fifth seal is not what you believe."Commander Elara took a step forward, her spear raised."You're lying.""Am I?""The Moon Goddess cannot be imprisoned."Cassian's gray eyes settled on her."That is what you've been taught."Kieran's voice was low and steady."Then explain."Cassian nodded once."Gladly."He looked around the ancient chamber."History records that the Moon Goddess created the werewolves, blessed the kingdoms, and vanished after defeating the darkness."He paused."Every part of that story is true."Hope flickered briefly in Nova's eyes.Then Cassian continued."It is also incomplete."Silence returned."The Moon Goddess did defeat the Shadow King."His gaze drifted toward the mountain below."But she couldn't destroy him."Nova

Chapter 172:The fourth seal

The explosion of darkness swept across the chamber like a tidal wave.Guardian warriors were thrown backward.Several crystal spears shattered on impact.The silver light from the first three seals flickered violently.Nova instinctively raised her arm to shield her face.The mark on her wrist burned.Not with pain.With urgency.Commander Elara slammed the butt of her spear against the stone floor."Hold the line!"The remaining Guardians quickly regrouped, forming a protective circle around the first three pillars.Their crystal weapons glowed brightly, pushing back the creeping darkness.But it wasn't enough.The shadow continued advancing.Slowly.Relentlessly.The fourth pillar stood at the far end of the chamber.A jagged crack split it from top to bottom.Dark mist poured from the wound like blood from an open vein.Nova's heart sank."It's dying."Kieran nodded grimly."The fourth seal has broken."Cassian stepped forward."No."Everyone looked at him."It hasn't broken."He p

Chapter 173:The queen below

The chamber fell into stunned silence."...Mother."Kieran's voice was barely audible.Nova looked at him in disbelief."Your mother?"Kieran didn't answer immediately.His golden eyes remained fixed on the darkness beneath the prison.The voice came again.Soft.Gentle.Filled with a sadness so profound it seemed to weigh upon the mountain itself."Kieran... my son..."His hands began to tremble."I buried her."Commander Elara slowly lowered her spear."No."Kieran turned toward her."I stood beside her grave."Elara's expression was filled with sympathy."You stood beside an empty tomb."A sharp breath caught in Nova's throat."What?"Elara looked toward the darkness below."When the kingdom fell, no one ever found Queen Selene's body."Kieran frowned."I remember—""You remember what they wanted you to remember."The words struck him like a blow.The fragments of his restored memories suddenly felt unreliable again.How much of his past was real?How much had been altered?The gen

Chapter 174:The crown of choice

The crown hovered above Nova's head.Its woven strands of moonlight shimmered softly, bathing the chamber in a gentle silver glow.No one spoke.Every Guardian had lowered their weapon.Even the Shadow Fangs watched in silence.The ancient prison itself seemed to be holding its breath.Nova looked up at the crown.It was beautiful.Yet she felt no desire to claim it.The Moon Goddess's final words echoed in her mind."Only the one who refuses the crown is worthy to wear it."She finally understood.This had never been a test of power.It was a test of the heart.Nova slowly lifted her hands.Instead of reaching for the crown...She stepped back."I don't want it."Her voice echoed through the chamber.The crown remained where it was, glowing even brighter."I never came here to become a queen."The silver light pulsed warmly."I came because people were suffering."She turned toward Kieran."I came because someone had been forgotten."Her eyes then moved to Commander Elara and the wea

Chapter 175:The shadow king

The crimson eyes stared into Nova's soul.They were vast.Ancient.Filled with a hatred that had survived a thousand years.The mountain trembled beneath a voice that seemed older than time itself."So..."A low, rumbling laugh echoed from the abyss."...this is the child who awakened the Five Seals."The black fire rose higher.It did not burn the stone.Instead, it swallowed the light around it, leaving only darkness in its wake.Every Guardian instinctively stepped back.Every Shadow Fang fell to one knee.Not out of fear.Out of absolute devotion.Commander Elara tightened her grip on her spear."The Shadow King..."For centuries, he had been nothing more than a legend.Now he stood beneath them.Alive.Nova forced herself to stand her ground.She held the moonlight crown firmly in both hands.The mark on her wrist burned with steady warmth.The Shadow King's laughter faded."You do not tremble."Nova met his crimson gaze."No.""Why?"She took a slow breath."Because fear is exac

Chapter 176:The return of the second keeper

For one long, breathless moment, no one moved.Kieran stared at the woman standing in the entrance.His lips parted, but no words came.The silver-haired warrior smiled through tears."I'm home."The sword slipped from her hand and clattered against the stone floor."Kieran..."His knees nearly gave way."Lysandra."The name broke from him like a prayer.Then, for the first time in centuries, the brother and sister ran toward each other.The chains binding Kieran's wrists shimmered.The barrier separating him from the chamber rippled.As Lysandra stepped into the circle of moonlight, the prison itself responded.With a sound like breaking glass, the barrier dissolved.The chains fell away from Kieran's wrists.They struck the stone with a heavy clang before dissolving into silver dust.He was free.After a thousand years...The First Keeper took his first unbound step.He crossed the distance in moments.Lysandra met him halfway.They embraced so tightly that neither cared about the b

Chapter 177:The final choice

Lysandra's body trembled in Kieran's arms.Dark veins spread slowly across her skin, climbing toward her shoulder like living shadows.Kieran held her tightly."No."His voice cracked."You've survived this long. We're going to save you."Lysandra managed a faint smile."You've always been stubborn.""I'm serious.""So am I."She gently placed a hand against his cheek."I've fought this darkness for a thousand years."Her breathing grew uneven."I'm tired, Kieran."A tear slipped down his face."I just got you back."Nova stood frozen before the altar.The moonlight crown rested in her hands.It felt warmer now.Almost alive.The Moon Goddess spoke softly."The choice is yours alone."Nova looked up."Tell me what happens."There was a long silence.Then the goddess answered."If you restore the prison, the balance will remain."Nova glanced toward Lysandra."And her?""The corruption will continue to consume her."Her heart sank."And if I destroy the prison?"The silver light dimmed

Chapter 178:A new dawn

The first rays of dawn spilled through the shattered ceiling of the Fallen Crown.For the first time in a thousand years...The mountain was silent.No heartbeat echoed beneath the stone.No whispers of darkness lingered in the air.The ancient prison had become something else entirely.A sanctuary.Nova slowly lowered the moonlight crown.Its brilliant glow had softened until it resembled ordinary silver.The five seals still stood around the chamber, but they had changed.The cracks were gone.The oppressive magic had vanished.Each pillar now shone with a gentle light, no longer fueled by sacrifice, but by the promise freely shared among countless Guardians.Commander Elara knelt before the altar, tears streaming down her face."It is over."For years, she had imagined this moment.She had simply never believed she would live to see it.Kieran helped Lysandra to her feet.The last traces of corruption had disappeared from her arm.She flexed her fingers slowly, smiling in disbelief

Chapter 179:The promise of tomorrow

Three months had passed since the fall of the Fallen Crown.The world had begun to heal.The scars of the ancient war had not disappeared overnight, but for the first time in generations, the kingdoms faced the future without the burden of forgotten secrets.The story of Blackthorn spread across every land.Bards sang of the First and Second Keepers.Children learned of the Guardians who had chosen to protect rather than rule.The name Blackthorn was no longer spoken in whispers.It was spoken with honor.In the Moon Kingdom, the royal palace had become busier than ever.Messengers arrived daily from neighboring kingdoms, carrying proposals for trade, peace treaties, and cultural exchanges.King Kael smiled as he looked over the growing stack of letters."I've never had so much paperwork."Queen Lyra laughed softly."You wanted peace.""I did."She kissed his cheek."This is what peace looks like."Across the room, Nova watched her parents with a smile.For the first time in years, th
