Horizon Zero Dawn Erend Novels & Stories

It’s coming from the direction I am heading in. “Eldora…” I exhale, relieved that I found her. I wrap her in my arms, not willing to be separated from her again. - Ezra’s gaze softens as he looks down at Eldora. She’s staring up at him, wide eyed, riddled with curiosity and… is that fear? "I was sent by the Moon Goddess," Ezra responds softly, "to prepare you... for the end." “The end?” “What end?” I hover closer. The pieces of the puzzle are coming together but what I don't understand is why? “Does this have something to do with the Enemy?”

Yet, despite the overwhelming opposition from the Kingston family, she remained firm—she wanted Lucas to marry me. One afternoon, during the wedding preparations, Lucas took Grandma Eve and me for a stroll in the park. As we reached a slope, she scribbled a note, saying she was thirsty. Lucas hurried off to buy water, leaving me to watch over her. Then, suddenly, her entire body tensed. Her eyes locked onto something in the distance, filled with urgent recognition as if she had just seen a ghost from her past. Alarmed, I gripped her wheelchair and scanned the surroundings. But there was no one.

When I reached the other side I bent down and kissed the solid surface. Garrett was next followed by Joel and finally Damien was last. I had a bad feeling about this, so far none of us had been eliminated. Damien worked his way across slowly until he was about to reach us, then the board disappeared. He managed to grab onto the edge of the rocky surface, clinging for dear life.

Now a once-whole blue planet floated with just particles of itself as it drifted across this dark, lifeless plain. In a different plane lied a primordial creature of the night finding solace in the eternal night that plagued his castle, the whistle and Chimes of fate had stirred his old blood awake. He knew that times were finally changing, and it seemed he had to get back to the game. "I wonder how Netherndel is faring, it's time I get back" his deep red eyes shone with a dangerous glint as he looked across the darkness, his eyes seemed to bypass the veil between planes for his gaze had a godly presence that came with it.

Zeno stopped asking James questions. Sitting on the ground, he shouted again and began to sell information. “What information are you selling?” James grew interested. With a serious expression, Zeno said, “There’s a ruin on this ancient battlefield. It existed before the birth of the ten districts, and a powerhouse before Endlos seems to be sealed in there. “I learned that the powerhouse should be the subordinate of Emperor Raiah. His ability is on par with Wynne’s.

“Hello Eden, is there something?” There’s some kind of noise on the other line, then followed by Eden’s gentle voice. (Hello, friend! Sorry to disturb you right now, but there’s an emergency. You see, darling, Black Leopard Mercenary, and Lynx Mercenary group came back at the same time. Most of them are injured, but no zombie bites. We need you here because some people exceeded our healing level. Can you come?) Farrah and Ferdinand exchanged looks, and the former replied, “Sure. I’ll be there in 10 minutes.”

Kael’s gaze flicked briefly toward Aera, catching the smallest hesitation in her posture—the way her fingers had not quite relaxed since the system surged, the way her focus held on Eryndor just a fraction longer than it should have. Not fear. Something else. He didn’t name it. Not yet. Rhyne stepped forward, breaking the moment. “Enough of this. You’re going to explain exactly what you’ve done.” Eryndor didn’t look at him. “That would take longer than you’re willing to listen.” Rhyne’s hand tightened at his side. “Try me.” Eryndor’s attention returned to Aera. “You activated the second position,” he said, ignoring the general entirely. “Not fully. Not correctly. But enough.”

I ignored his gaze and turned to look at the worried Andy. "Andy, I'm hungry. I would like to drink Mom's chicken soup." "Sure thing." Andy patted me on my head and flashed me a smile. At the same time, chaos reigned in the corridors. "I need Adele Lakewood's family! She's bleeding!" Jonah immediately sprang up and pushed the door open, yelling, "I'm here! I'm her husband!" Before he left, he looked at me, but a nurse soon escorted him away. I lowered my eyes, saying nothing.

If Zaire was happy. Then maybe letting him go had been the right thing to do after all. Even if it meant Sebastian had to carry the pain alone. It was worth it. ♧♧♧ ZAIRE'S POV I picked up two packs of sour gummy worms and tossed them into the trolley before pushing it to the next aisle for a bottle of apple juice. Leaning against the handle, I looked down at the shopping list in my hand, making sure I hadn't forgotten anything. When I looked up, I noticed two girls standing at the end of the aisle. They kept stealing glances at me, whispering to each other before one of them smiled and gave me a small wave.

🌑 Chains of Eternity They camped in the crook of a narrow alcove, the air heavy with the scent of damp stone and old blood. The labyrinth allowed no real rest, but exhaustion gave them no choice. Brann collapsed onto his cloak with a grunt, Seris sat with her bow across her lap like a drawn blade, and Liora’s light dimmed to a faint glow as she slumped beside Kael. Eryndor lingered at the edge of the firelight. His posture was loose, his expression unreadable, but Kael noticed the way his eyes followed the shadows, tracking them like a predator. It unsettled him more than the silence of the maze.
