Maeve POV The double doors opened, and the spotlight was on us. There was a collective gasp as their eyes fixed on us. The hall was quiet, the tension and shock were choking, and I tried my best to hold back an eye roll. “Presenting, the goddess of war, Selena, who is now called Maeve and the first and only wolf ever made, her mate Ario, formerly known as Carson, and, of course, their children, Otto and Quinn! King Odin's family!” a man yelled inside the mic, making my ears cringe because the hall was silent.

Then he went out of the room. “Don’t worry about him, Ava.” Causing her to turn to Mavis. “He looks like he has a lot on his mind. But I must ask, what have learned so far?” She found herself on her feet again, looking into Mavis’ eyes. “All I have learned is how to exit out of my body and must be back into it before sunrise.” Mavis nodded, “That is the starting of a Spirit Walker, but you will learn more of the other stuff when you are able to. But I have a feeling that you will surpass many.”

“Here comes your child, your long-lost descendant whom you have waited so desperately for. She is here to reclaim her truest position, to cleanse the darkness within her, and accept your flames. May she be replenished by the light of the Moon Goddess. For you, Wanderer, a messenger from the goddess herself, shall accept your one true Alpha.” I couldn’t move. It was as if my muscles were frozen solid as my heart hammered against my rib cage. Ahead of me, the cloaked figure—the Wanderer—stood shrouded in an aura of unnatural crimson light, one so similar to the flames of the throne. Its presence filled the air with an oppressive energy, both terrifying and magnetic. It stretched its hands towa

"Most likely." His gaze sweeps over the next page. "It says the Wanderers with special abilities are human, and it only manifests once in their lifetime. The powers are triggered by intense emotions and it often happens in a moment of crisis. They are often mistaken to be supernatural entities," he looks at me. "Like werewolves and witches." "So, a Wanderer?" He nods. "Yeah." Running a hand through his hair, he lets out a frustrated groan. "I can't believe we thought she was like us."

One, drifting slowly to starboard, appeared to be carved from teeth. In the center stood the Crucible Spire. A tower of rusted metal, draped in seaweed and stitched sails, rising straight from the sea like a nail in the world’s heart. Maya gripped the dagger tighter. “We're here,” she said. “The Sixth Tide: The Betrayer’s Wake.” --- As they rowed through the graveyard, voices echoed from ship to ship. Some cried for forgiveness. Some laughed. Some simply repeated names—over and over—names Maya didn’t recognize… until she did.

And I’d woken up unconscious in their care. I forced myself to stay calm, to keep my face neutral despite the panic flooding my system. “Stormclaw?” I repeated, putting surprise into my tone that wasn’t entirely fake. “Yes,” she said, still watching me closely. “You wandered very close to our inner lands. That’s not something strangers usually survive.” I swallowed hard. “I didn’t mean to cross into anyone’s land. I was just… trying to find my way out of the forest.” She nodded slowly, accepting the explanation but not quite believing it. “That much is clear. You weren’t acting like a spy. Your movements were confused, directionless. That’s the only reason you’re still breathing.”

but I couldn't reach it. "Nadia? You look terrible. Where's your healing power?" Kaleb rushed over, his face etched with worry. I shook my head, avoiding his touch. "What did they say? How are things going?" "Beta Malik from the Blood Moon Pack filed a complaint. He said that the healing sigils you engraved into the Moonstones are forbidden hexes stolen from their ancestral tombs. They are calling you a 'Soul-Thief.' If the High Council finds the energy signature matches their records, they will exile you!" Kaleb said, handing me a confidential file.

By late afternoon, the light in Altea always turned forgiving. It softened the sharp white walls, gilded the fishing boats in the harbour, and laid a thin shimmer across the sea as if the world were trying, for a brief hour, to become the version of itself people longed for. Estrella Marquez stood outside her parents' restaurant with her hands damp from washing down the terrace tables and watched the horizon take on that honey-coloured glow. Some evenings, the sight comforted her. Tonight, it only made the ache in her chest more precise.

* *"The Tidecaller's trident. Plunge it into the maelstrom. *Break* the cycle." Eden's fading. The Heir's grip tightens. I rip the needle free and seize the trident. --- The maelstrom recoils as the trident pierces its heart. Green stars implode, their light sucked into the weapon's prongs. The Heir shrieks, dissolving into foam and regret. The spire collapses, dragging us into the void between tides. We wash ashore miles away, Eden coughing blood and saltwater onto rust-colored sand. The trident lies broken, its power spent. The needle in my palm is silent.

The wanderer and I traversed the astral expanse, our connection deepening with each celestial stride. Amidst the astral blossoms, a haunting melody enveloped us—a symphony of memories and forgotten echoes. The wanderer's gaze met mine, an unspoken understanding passing between us. "The astral echoes reveal fragments of our intertwined pasts," he murmured, his voice a harmonic resonance in the cosmic expanse. As we delved deeper into the astral labyrinth, the celestial blooms whispered secrets, hinting at a cosmic history written in stardust.
