Fèmi also responded with funny emojis. "Unfortunately, my prison here has a thousand exit doors. Of course, I should be happy to take advantage of them and escape, but I could quickly end up in solitary confinement if even the smallest percentage of my escape fails. So, thank you, I don't want to experience a traumatic escape movie." Shola sent, this time with teary-eyed emojis.

I said with relief. “What way have you found?” I added. “Obsidian. We need black obsidian,” He answered and paused. He then went further to explain the process of Lillian and another Elder merging their powers to do the spell, when the Obsidian is obtained. The plan sounded promising but there was only one problem. “That is a great plan and I'm grateful for your effort. But black obsidian can only be found in Moon Stone pack. And by the name of the pack, you should already know that it is Alpha William’s pack,” I pointed out and heard Maeve’s gasp in the background.

Golden arrows slowly emerged, timidly trying to chase away the shadows of the night. The great fire disc made its appearance. First, it emerged as a red line growing wider and wider until it rose victorious into the angelic blue sky, ready to stretch its arms over the whole earth. It tamed its color slightly, becoming comforting as it shyly soaked up the night frost with which you would think it was soothing its own color.

“Unity? After what we’ve faced, you want to test us again?” Luna stepped forward. “It’s not a test of us individually. It’s about us as a team. We’ve survived together. We’ve fought together. We are ready.” The Aurakyn nodded, golden light rippling across their armor. “Then follow. The next shards must be aligned, or the Veil itself will fracture.” Navigating the Shards The path ahead twisted through the molten shards, each one larger and more unstable than the last. Some floated midair, connected to the Veil by thin tendrils of energy. One misstep could trigger a catastrophic eruption.

Steady. Bathed in the slow, rhythmic indigo pulse of the Moonstone fragment suspended in its containment field above the obsidian desk. The shard was hot—not hearth-warm, but forge-hot. Sulfur and ancient lava. Pressure without mercy. The air around it felt heavier, as if the room itself were being forced to kneel. Phoenix adjusted the holographic scanner. Light lines unfolded, mapping the crystal’s internal lattice. Four pieces. The geometry was absolute. This indigo shard was only the base—the grounding element. Without the heart, the crown, and the anchor, it was nothing more than a loaded weapon.

Her eyes were still brown, but for a split second, a flash of violet flickered deep within her pupils. "I can't go back," Jade whispered, the realization shattering her heart into a million pieces. "No," Aris said, handing her a new tablet. "But you can fight. There are twelve more containers, Jade. Twelve 'updates' scattered across the globe. Julian’s 'Obsidian Protocol' wasn't a single bomb. It’s an orchestra. And you’re the only one who knows the music." Jade looked at the screen. Maps of London, Tokyo, New York, and Rio de Janeiro began to pulse with that same malevolent red dot.

Liam said, his voice a low, terrifying snarl. ​He pried open a crate with his claws. Inside were crossbow bolts, but the tips weren't steel or silver. They were made of a strange, translucent black glass that hummed with a sick, oily energy. ​"Obsidian-Core," Marcus whispered, his face turning pale. "It's illegal in all five packs. It's designed to bypass Alpha-skin. It rots the healing factor from the inside out."

“That fed on forgotten sorrow, this feels like focused hate.” As he spoke, the black water churned, from its depths, a form rose, a nightmare shaped of corrosive black liquid and sharp dark crystal. Vaguely human, faceless, with two burning red pinpricks for eyes and in its clawed hand, it held a glowing obsidian shard, pulsing with the same dark energy that once fueled the Scourge. It didn’t speak, it just simply pointed the shard at Liora.

"Alpha of the Northern Territories, master of the shadow packs, and bearer of a bloodline as old as the Oath itself. He is powerful, Aria. More powerful than most Alphas, and far more dangerous because his power is matched by intelligence and ruthless determination. If he has claimed you as his Luna, then the game being played is larger and more complex than simple mate bonds or pack politics." Aria felt cold settle into her bones despite the lingering warmth in her chest. "What game? What are you talking about?" "The shards," her mother replied, her voice dropping to barely above a whisper. "Fragments of the broken oath, scattered across the realms when the original promise shattered. They

The air was cold, but free of snow. Inside the cache, there was no ambush, no kinetic trap. There was only a small, heavy data drive sitting on a clean, black cloth. Beside the drive was another taunt: a single, black obsidian shard—a piece of the ceremonial Syndicate uniform worn by Proxies. Elias recognized the shard. It came from her own Proxy uniform, discarded years ago. Anya had kept it. Elias plugged the data drive into the Master Key interface. It immediately began a complex, layered decryption sequence. The drive was intentionally corrupted and required the Master Key’s quantum processor to bypass the integrity checks.
