Harbinger Of Dawn Novels & Stories

Damien’s jaw was tight, eyes locked onto her with an unreadable expression. “What… was that?” she whispered, her voice barely audible. No one answered. Because they didn’t know. But the Harbinger did. And for the first time, Eve saw something in its crimson gaze that sent a chill down her spine. Not rage. Not hunger. Something worse. Recognition. And then, just as suddenly as it had appeared, the Harbinger let out a bone-chilling howl before vanishing into the darkness, leaving only the echoes of its promise behind.

Something ancient had awakened. Vesper’s grip on his sword tightened. He had faced death before, but never like this. The Harbinger was more than just a relic of forgotten magic—he was power itself, woven into the very fabric of the kingdom’s darkest history. “You were never meant to kneel. You were meant to fall.” The Harbinger’s voice rang out, deep and final. A deafening crack tore through the ground beneath them. The palace trembled, dust cascading from the high ceilings. The rune circle beneath them flared, blood-red and pulsing. Elara gasped as the symbols twisted and shifted, forming an intricate pattern she had never seen before.

The golden glow of the protective barrier shimmered around the city’s perimeter, its runes pulsing violently, struggling against something unseen. The air was still. Unnaturally so. And then she saw him. A lone figure stood at the farthest edge of the shadows beyond the barrier, where the land fell into eerie, unnatural darkness. He was tall, draped in black, his form shifting like a mirage between solid and spectral. The Harbinger. His presence was like a wound in the world, distorting the space around him. It was the first time she had truly seen him - not just glimpsed in dreams or echoes of memories. And he was looking directly at her.

The absent villagers were surrounding them, standing in a trance. Damon advanced, gripping the hilt of his sword. "What is your identity?" The figure rotated, showing a skinny, white face. Their eyes were empty and devoid of any feelings. "I am the Harbinger," they proclaimed, their voice reverberating throughout the room. "And you have missed your chance." The ceremony has already started. Kyra's eyes grew larger. "What ceremony?" The Harbinger lifted their hands, causing the crystals in the walls to throb with a sinister energy. "They mentioned the ceremony for calling forth the Shadow King, their voice dripping with evil intent." "Upon his invocation, darkness will engulf your world."

It might have hunted for food last night. The golden beam of light was starting to appear on the horizon. It was almost dawn and it made me enjoy my meal while watching the sunrise on the glass window. I was only able to finish half of the chicken, then I went to the window and opened the frames to let the sun rays come in. I shaded my eyes with my left hand as the sunbeam dazed in my direction. Only then I noticed that I was still wearing the rose pearl bracelet that the bookkeeper had given me. One of the beads disappeared gradually before my eyes. I took a closer look, and indeed there was already a space on the beads. The red thread was showing due to the disappearance of the one bead. “

Then, like a madwoman, she lunged forward, screaming, “You came back too, didn’t you?! I knew it. You were reborn just like me! “We’re the same now! That’s why we’re meant to be together!” Her words made my stomach twist. My face stayed calm, but inside, I was shaken. I still managed to press the call button for the nurse. “Doctor, I think she’s mentally unstable. She keeps saying strange things about being reborn.” The nurse and doctor rushed in with furrowed brows. “It sounds like a full psychotic break—hallucinations and delusions. Get the sedatives ready!”

The figure turns and I find myself staring into deep dark eyes. “Remember hunter. Claim her by the blood moon, then when you fill the dagger with the blood of the gatekeeper, your chosen one will be returned. This is how I have made it. This is how I have foreseen it.” Words fill my head almost like a mind link, but slightly different. My eyes narrow when I realize the figure in the distance is the sorceress Yggdrasil. She disappears behind a mossy structure and the haze in my mind clears.

Faris I woke up to sun shining on my face. The morning brightness waking me up. I got up and sat on the bed, eyes still closed because of over drinking last night. I felt hung over and my head was aching. I roamed my hand on the night stand to get my mobile, it has always been my habit to check my mail early morning from work and start then start out my day with working out. I couldn't find find my mobile or my nightstand.
