The Lycan King's Captive
I had two of the three required ingredients.
But time was running out, and I still needed the Crimson Moss.
"Where?" I gasped aloud, looking around frantically. "Where is it?"
My wolf didn't answer. Instead, she went... quiet. Not absent, but waiting. Watching.
I pulled out my ruined map, trying to make sense of the torn, muddy parchment. Crimson Moss grew on ancient trees in areas touched by blood. Old battlegrounds. Sacrifice sites.
There had to be something like that nearby. The forest was ancient… surely battles had been fought here, blood had been spilled.
