Bloody Slash Ash Of War Location นิยาย & เรื่องราว

Ash gladly said. Ash re-started the engine and sped away, bringing himself and Leona to their intended destination in the blink of an eye. The lush hills were distant from Moonwood City's heart, on the border between Westwood, where the Argent Family had lived for numerous years, and North Windwood, the city known as the werewolves' royal capital. *** The grassy expanse just at the top of one of the little hills there was where Ash and Leona chose to lie down. After an hour of riding his motorcycle, Ash appeared exhausted.

The guild members engaged in a fierce exchange of fire with Greyson's henchmen. The room was filled with the sound of bullets whizzing through the air, and Jota's heart raced as he focused on his target. Two of Jota's soldiers fell in the midst of the chaos, their sacrifice a stark reminder of the danger they faced. On the fifth floor, the scene repeated itself. The guild members stormed into the rooms, bullets flying as they clashed with Greyson's henchmen. The gunshots echoed through the hallways, the guild members' movements swift and precise.

"That’s where the informant said we’d find the rebel command centre." Zara's palm clenched around her blade's hilt as she nodded. "Lyra, keep near, Elara. We have no idea what we're getting into. With caution, the troop moved forward, the heavy layer of ash stifling their footsteps. The air inside the dilapidated building was heavy and stale. Breathing shallowly and straining their ears for any sound, they moved in unison. There was a quiet buzz as they went down into the basement. Relics of ancient imperial technology, long dormant but still glowing faintly, littered the walls. Zara's heart pounded because this was no typical insurgent stronghold.

Flame licks the treeline on the far ridge, smoke pouring black into the white sky. I lift my head, blood dripping from my jaws, and turn toward the sound. Holt snarls beneath me, writhing to break free, but my weight holds him pinned down. The scent of ash and resin pollutes the air. Ashgrave seems to be openly declaring their allegiance to Redmaw. They’ve gotten their hands on explosives somehow and they’re doing what they can to turn the tide of this fight. Through the smoke, they pour, Derren at the front.

Sanctum’s central square, turned down a side street, and continued their search. As they followed Ashfall’s lead, their car slowly left the city’s bustling center behind and entered the suburbs. When the road became too narrow, they got out and continued on foot. Though the streets looked familiar, much of the area had been redeveloped. Some sections were still under construction, and it seemed like many of the old buildings had been demolished. After all, the place where Ashfall had painted *Despair* was originally a very old structure. Ashfall eventually recognized a river and a stone bridge nearby. “This is it! I remember this river—and that bridge! The building must’ve been right around

The ash settled. Mara exhaled shakily. “He’s playing with us.” Ava looked back once. The paw prints had vanished. Only the black tree remained, silent and watching. “We’re coming for him,” she whispered. The path beyond the clearing narrowed into what looked like an old riverbed. The ash had given way to a thin film of red moss that clung to the stones like dried blood. Even the air felt heavier here, tasting of copper and smoke. Mara kept her bow out now, an arrow nocked but not drawn. “This was all green when I came through last year,” she whispered. “He’s poisoned it.”

ZANE’S POV The rink was my sanctuary, the only place where the world’s noise dulled to a low hum. My skates carved the ice, each stride a desperate bid to outrun the chaos in my head. The Blizzard’s practice facility echoed with the sharp crack of pucks and the shouts of teammates, but I barely heard them.

I followed my ruined corpse all the way to the mass grave. My limbs were twisted at unnatural angles, my body covered in crisscrossing bruises, my face drained of every drop of color—like a weed that had been stomped flat by a hundred boots. Soon, a pack of mangy stray dogs caught the scent of fresh meat. Their eyes glowed hungry and green in the darkness as they circled in. At first, they just tugged at the edges of my clothes. Then one bolder mutt sank its teeth into my calf and ripped off a chunk of flesh.
