Lana's POV Blackwood Lodge was less a lodge and more a stone fortress grafted onto the side of a mountain. It was beautiful in a stark, lonely way, all sharp angles and thick, ivy-covered walls. The air was colder, thinner, and so quiet you could hear the wind mourn through the pine trees a mile away. It felt less like a sanctuary and more like a very scenic prison. Dorothy, bless her, saw it as an adventure. “We’re in a castle, Lana!” she’d chirped, her little hands pressed against the cold glass of the massive living room window. “Are there dragons?”

Blackwood Ridge rose out of the forest like a tombstone. It was a massive hunting lodge built from dark timber and stone, perched on a sheer cliff overlooking the valley. It had only one approach: a narrow, winding road that was currently covered in ice and lined with Iron Hounds. We crouched in the tree line, five hundred yards from the main gate.

Upon arriving at the Blackwood main house, it felt deserted. Not empty—but eerily quiet, in an overly orderly way.

She was looking for a specific section: The History of the Northern Coast. She found it near the back of the room, tucked away in a corner where the shadows were deepest. She ran her fingers over the books until she found a thick volume with a dark blue cover. It was labeled with the Blackwood family crest—a silver tree with deep roots.
