“But Kolya is just a bannik.” “Perhaps he seems so, appearances-wise, but his bloodline speaks otherwise.” Anya's head swum. Memories of the old tales of the gods told round the hearth-fire by Dmitri surfaced in her mind. She recalled the thunder god Perun, king of storms, and his rival jovial Veles, lord of cattle and the leafy green underworld. She thought of the golden spring god Jarilo and his lover Morena, goddess of winter, death, and witchcraft, eternal enemy of Chernobog.

"I found out later that symbol, that you described, is from a Korean clan in the Inverse that has gone extinct over thirty years ago." "You know what it is called?" Ryosuke shook his head.

The question is how one suddenly appeared like that." "Every state nation has their own stories. But certain families believed that even ordinary creatures can turn into dragons and claim descent from them." Cai Kang said. "Hell, even the Black Mountain tribe believes that we also descend from dragons."

Maybe that’s why I felt like I was being pulled into the forest. “It’s an old ghost story made by the humans, but it was never a ghost in this forest but a Gumiho.” Yong-rae face tensed up with the word Gumiho. “What is a Gumiho?” Rylie asked. “It’s a nine-tailed fox god, in this case, a goddess.

I sighed in frustration, rereading, and saw that I was chosen to be the one to do the sacrificial prayer and ritual. The annual sacrificial prayer and ritual held deep-rooted traditions that had been passed down for generations. The chosen one, adorned in the traditional attire, would be carried in a palanquin while performing the customary dance. The purpose was to offer prayers to both the Moon Goddess and the revered Dragon Goddess, symbolizing a connection to ancient creatures and seeking their blessings.

Jayden whispers in shock. My head is pounding and I feel dizzy. Tara is Keturah, the moon goddess. The woman who has been helping me all this while is the moon goddess? I always knew she was different, but it never occurred to me. “Keturah, blessed goddess, mother of our kind, it's an honour to have you in our midst”, Kreed says, going one knee.

I ask. “No, I didn’t know she was one but I knew they existed. They’re like mythological. Apparently created by the gods and goddesses of the Earth to help balance everything. They’re said to be super powerful when together, but because there’s no select bloodline for them they just kind of pop up randomly.” “When one dies another is born,” Jordan says and I look at him confused. “It’s what Reign said when I asked her about it, apparently she’s one to?” he shrugs.
