Krister asked, looking at his tablet still before walking to the back room. “Black? She doesn’t-- I mean didn’t wear anything else?” she asked, her eyebrows meeting in the middle confused. “Don’t tell me she’s one of those people…” “Yes, specifically black clothing. They’re hot in the day but you disappear in the night. That’s what she always said to me.” Krister disappeared in the back to get something whilst Rojean was left there to contemplate on her own how she was going to pull the act off if she was a bad liar herself.

The rain on the western ridge did not merely fall; it drove sideways, a relentless sheet of freezing highland water that turned the peat and heather into a thick, clinging mire. Tala stood perfectly motionless at the absolute precipice of the ridge, her feet dug firmly into the ancient earth. The storm howled around her, ripping at her clothes, but her spun-copper hair seemed to dance with a life of its own, vibrant against the dark, bruising gray of the sky. Her icy blue eyes were fixed on the valley below, tracking the glowing halogen headlights of Malakai’s heavy excavation armor as the machinery slowly ground its way toward the first sacred threshold.

she said, pushing fallen leaves and dead grass out of the way so she could more clearly see what they were working with. “Are you insulting my girlish figure?” She laughed, but she didn’t bother to come up with a response. Taking a step forward, Ru peered through the hole. Looking down, she realized where they were. “It’s the ravine,” she said quietly. “The passage comes out where I fought Nat.” “Really?” Ivy asked, stepping up next to Ru, clearly wanting a look. Ru stepped aside. “Oh, yeah. But we’re at the other end, where you blasted him. See! The trees hang down over the sides of the hollow right there, making a little crawl space.”

The light is doing what March light does on the Costa Brava — coming in low and specific, the sea a grey-blue that is neither winter nor summer, the town above the harbour making the sounds of a place that is waking up after the long indoor months. She has Clara's old notebook with her — the first one, from when Clara was eight. Clara gave it to her last year, when she started university, saying: *this is yours more than it is mine. You taught me to do it. Keep the record.* The first notebook, eight years old, full of Clara's handwriting about rocks and twins and what her mother does. She has her own sixteenth notebook too. Both on the harbour wall. She opens Clara's notebook to the first en

"The trail ends at the base of the Flats. We’ll have to climb the rest of the way on foot." "Then let's move," I said. The drive took two hours. We left the green, of the Iron Howler lands and moved into the high country. Here, the trees grew twisted and thin, fighting for life in the rocky soil. The mountains rose up like broken teeth against the sky. We parked the truck in a hidden grove of a tree. "Merek said to look for where the water flows backward," Raven said, looking up at the peaks. She closed her eyes for a second, her hand drifting to the locket she always wore. "I can feel something. It’s faint, like a hum in my teeth."

~Night in the North~ The band of the night anti-supernatural creatures were all set out all on standby against the time the enemy steps forth unaware of their secret formation and intentions. They are all following the lead of Raven. "Kai, can you hear me now?" Raven asked tapping the piece plugged to her ear. "Yes Raven. Very clear" "I'm with Delilah. Check with Archie and the rest. Any time from now, we might spot something fishy around. I think they are probably thinking of setting a trap for us tonight"

"Looks like you'll be getting some new furniture, too." Ezra chuckled as the others reached the porch steps. "Don't think this whole getting shot thing will keep you from helping out," Josh said with a shake of his head. "You're raking the forest next time." "Raking the forest?" Tanner asked as he leaned on the porch railing, his white hair pulled back in a ponytail. "Why on earth would you rake the forest?" "Because Bull Creek has a weird alpha who likes to burn things in the middle of summer," Josh said with a sigh.

As they stepped into the cool, damp air of the night, the rain had transformed into a light drizzle, misting the surroundings in a haze. The world outside felt lush and alive, yet ominous with an undercurrent of uncertainty. George led the way, Elora and Maya close behind, each step bringing them closer to a sanctuary that felt both like a refuge and a line crossed. "Stay close," George advised, casting a watchful glance over his shoulder. "We don't know who might be watching."

**:The Calm Before the Storm** The car sped down the winding road, leaving the city behind as they climbed into the hills. The landscape was vast and open, but the weight of what they were racing toward made the air feel thick. Lillian stared out the window, watching the darkness deepen as they approached the private estate that housed the vault. "Are we close?" Claire asked quietly, her voice strained with exhaustion. David nodded, eyes focused on the road. "A few more miles. But we can't assume we're alone. Derrick’s people will be tracking us, and if they get there first—”

The cold rays of the moon peeked through the spine leaves of BlackIris forest. BlackIris, an impenetrable forest known for its darkness along with the buried secrets imbibed in it. A quiet and soothing river named Fairy Tears that stream in the heart of the forest functions as a wood barrier between two natural elevations Ardna Chirig and Ayruzglow.
