A.I.

A.I.

To where the brightest of lights dwelled. "Perfect." Maru cursed in silence after he followed the direction of Mistress Ais' gaze. The dazzling light at the end of this reality was perhaps the biggest mystery of all. But Maru was sure to leave it alone for now as it does not concern him nor would it bring him any rich harvest by satisfying a curiosity. One that he believed, today more than ever, that it was indeed the only viable goal that the Nameless One may have in store for him. He was about to give more thought about it but alas, he heard footsteps nearby that marked the arrival of two pairs of feet.

The starting was serious. The child mature too fast, which is sad, but hopefully 'bullies' let them be and not add to their condition. looks promising, especially the curiosity of how the kids are going to pull through. nice ?

SHADOW OF THE PAST: THE CURSED ALPHA

SHADOW OF THE PAST: THE CURSED ALPHA

The letters glowed brighter as I chanted. Mabel stepped back nervously. “I can't wait to remember everything” I smiled. “Trust me, sister. I can't wait too.” A beam of light shot from the book, wrapping around Mabel. She gasped, her body lifting slightly off the ground. The light grew stronger, blinding us for a moment. When it faded, she stood, her form now different. Her hair shimmered like starlight, longer and flowing. Her eyes glowed with silver fire. Her aura was powerful, almost divine.

Dark Journal

Dark Journal

They come armoured against dread. The light surprises them. Quiet. Unhurried. Moving in slow beautiful waves along surfaces that are not quite walls and not quite air. Not the light of any sun or flame or manufactured source. Something older than all of those. Something that has been here since before light had a name. At the center of it, in the place where the light is most concentrated and most still, there is a book.

Court Of Sins And Twilight

Court Of Sins And Twilight

“You either learn from it, or you let it drown you. So maybe just… try not being a dickhead again.” I barked a short laugh. “Is that your great wisdom for tonight?” “Take it or leave it.” A flash of light pulsed at the edge of the corridor—soft, sudden, and unmistakably magical. The Northern Lights. Lira turned her face toward the glow. The light caught the golden undertones in her caramel skin, painting her in starlight and shadows. She looked like a warrior born from the dusk. Her grip on my hand tightened slightly. “Let’s go.”

“You’re a lucky one. Someone will make very good use of that fire one day.” Pelin shot upright, heat rushing to her face. “W-what does that even mean?” Pareia only winked, her hips swaying lazily as she turned away, swagging with deliberate irritation. “You will figure it out, I’m sure” she said light hearted.I cleared my throat and smiled as I gave Pelin a subtle side glance, “Ehmn, Light. The answer is light. A candle flies without wings. It cries and melts without having eyes. And wherever a candle goes, it brings light and eliminates the darkness.”

Mazelina: The Legend of The White Wolf

Mazelina: The Legend of The White Wolf

I watch the ball of light travel down my arm, meeting Charlotte’s ball; they merge and sink into Mazelina. Maze’s body jolts, the ball splinters into tiny glowing dots, travelling through her veins, making them glow strangely in the dark of night. The bright dots pulse, slowing down until they’re stopped and start flickering like a flame on a candle in the soft breeze. The glow brightens again, making us shield our eyes. The light dies quickly, leaving us in pitch darkness. My eyes adjust slowly back to normal; Artemis is smiling with pride. “Beautiful, beautiful girl.” Mazelina speaks softly, “You are the Legend of the White Wolf.”

Alpha's Cursed Twain

Alpha's Cursed Twain

But thankfully, it was a dream; it made absolute sense that they didn’t bother with curiosity. I don’t know how long we stood there, but when the light finally subsided enough for me to lift my shield away from my eyes, I realized I wasn’t the only one affected by the light. Malthus' wolf was growling in pain and not fury. The light had a negative effect on him. He stood tall, howling but trembling nonetheless. “Reach for the moonstone, and he will hand it over.” The wind whistled as I heard the familiar voice speak. The witches, were they watching?

 Magic in the Moonlight

Magic in the Moonlight

Once it was on, Marsh turned on the lights and everyone started clapping and howling. My heart, which had already been so full of love for Derek, felt like it would burst with joy. I wasn't just home, I was with my family who cared enough to make even my simplest wishes come true. I thanked every one of them and made a silent vow to do a lot of Christmas shopping for my new family in the next few days.

Balance of Light and Shadow

Balance of Light and Shadow

Prince Eli just rubs my back as I think he needs the comfort too. I have the curtains drawn as it is easier to focus with artificial light, but the damn curtains are not closing properly. A stream of moonlight is entering the room and throwing me off as it is distracting. I mutter under my breath, "Damn curtains", and walk over to shut them. As I let go of Prince Eli to walk over, he grabs me by the arms, holding me back. In barely a whisper, he mutters, "a moon-ray". I'm just getting angry at this point. "A what".

The Last Light in the Dark

The Last Light in the Dark

The next day, the observatory's official social account announced that Lucas had discovered a new star, and he had named it "S" Countless comments flooded Serena's post from the previous day. "Wow, it's true. That's pretty impressive, Serena!" "Did Professor Thorne see your post and name it for you on purpose?" Just then, Lucas walked through the door. "Wilma, did you see? I named the star 'S.' It stands for 'seven' in light of our anniversary." I looked up at him coldly. "Then what's going on with your assistant? That's not what she said in her post."
