Hobgoblin Iron Shadow Novels & Stories

When the man began talking, it felt like he was covering her body in warm honey. "I must apologize to you. I'm Alpha Gunnar of The Shadow Howlers. My head warrior showed me evidence that you had been kidnapping humans. When I looked closer at the evidence, I couldn't determine if what he said was true, so I wanted to do more investigating. Omar?" Alpha Gunnar looked at the warriors, and the large one in front stepped forward, his neck bare in submission. "Yes, alpha." He answered in more of a growl. "Why have you set out to destroy this pack?" Gunnar asked. However, it wasn't Omar who answered.

I asked I little concerned “I saw a glimpse of your kidnapping. That was not conducted by mere humans. There is magic involved and not the good kind. That would explain a lot. But what are humans who hate the gifted doing playing around with a Shadow. I didn’t think there was any Shadows left. We are going to have to get Vivian and Demira. This is serious” “What is a shadow?

“Sera, look at this.” “This is bad. We should contact the commander.” She noticed that one of the goblins had a slightly bluish skin and a small horn on their head. It was a stronger species, an evolved goblin called a hobgoblin. Newbies can handle a single hoblin but a horde would be fatal. Team Alpha recovered enough to move. Sera and Sven were about to inform them to retreat when the earth rumbled violently.

Half of them monsters. From below, the hum of engines grew louder. Shadows moved through the fog, organized, methodical. The first Shadowborn war machines emerged from the trees, sleek black monstrosities with spines of steel and eyes of burning red. Behind them, the silhouettes of wolves, not flesh and blood, but forged from both. It was a sight out of legend and nightmare. The siege had begun. And all I could think, as thunder broke the sky in two, was how the Lannister name, my name, had built this war long before I ever learned to fight it.

Anna would take a piece of their hide for this abandonment, but only if Lillian could hold back the tide. Lillian looked at the obsidian dagger on her table, the one she had used to send Anna into the Gray. She knew the secret the Oracle was keeping. She knew that Asmodeus hadn't acted alone, and that the "Woman in the Shadows" was a ghost from a past so dark it could tilt the axis of the supernatural world. "You won't have her," Lillian whispered to the empty room, though her words were meant for the Council members hovering on the mountain's edge. "No witch or wolf, ghost or demon, will stop what she is meant to become."

In her bid to be as powerful as her twin sister, the twin seduced Tahula, playing the role of Nyala and promising him they'd unite their species as one when they get together. Tahula did fall for her, utterly and irrevocably. And he did like the idea of uniting the species for more peace to reign. Unfortunately, Nyala found out about everything, and cast her twin into the shadows of the unknown. It is said that the goblins are part of the shadows of the unknown where Nyala's twin is now locked in. Alongside the goblins, there were trolls, and wendigos. I haven't seen the last two, but I've witnessed the dangers of a goblin.

Cold black mist poured through the opening. Every living creature in the valley froze. An overwhelming pressure seemed to crush the air itself. Even the Night Titans knelt. The Shadow Legion lowered their heads. The Crimson Warden smiled triumphantly. "Our Lord..." "...welcome home." Through the narrow opening, a single enormous eye slowly appeared. It was larger than an entire castle tower. Its iris glowed molten gold. Its pupil was darker than the deepest night. The Shadow Dragon. Only one eye was visible... Yet its presence alone made the mountains tremble.

He saw her entire body glowing with that annoying golden light and he knew he couldn't win with simple tricks anymore…He had to use everything he had left. "You think you have won?" Lihont screamed. "I will drown your light in the deepest sea of darkness!" Lihont stood tall, his shadow leg pulsing with dark energy. “Romhetudro enamerufst drestyerfuighen!” He began to chant again, but this time, the shadows didn't come from the surroundings, they came from within him. Hundreds of thin, black shadows like snakes crawled all over his body, covering his skin until he looked like a huge shadow. The air around him started to smell badly and the grass beneath his feet turned black and died.
