The evening had come ahead. The sky was reddish-orange, and gray clouds adorned it. The sun was going to set over the western horizon. Flocks of birds were flying and singing at the top of the building. Maybe they wanted to going home. That was how it should be. I had to going home before dinner, or I would going to skip it. After reading, I intended to close the book. However, I halted immediately by an interesting page. 'Indemnius Spirit Crystal of the Gods.'

So tired that I just wanted to sleep for eternity. The steam was filling the room in a wet cloud. I morphed the clouds into animals having them float around the room. I smiled as a raven swooped around made just of clouds. Such a beautiful bird it was... A knock sounded from the door. I closed my eyes not moving to open it. “Valerie open the door or I am coming in.” Justin spoke. My mind was elsewhere. I would probably never leave this castle.

I asked in a quavering tone. He nodded. “I-I… I will… ‘ad astra per aspera.’” ***** The war will begin tomorrow. I peered at the red sky from the balcony draped in Zephyr’s robe. I had never seen a dawn this red before. It was as if the sky was the reflection of the rivers of blood that were about to flood the lands. Honestly, I was blank. I didn’t know what was right and what was wrong anymore. The uncomfortable feeling in my chest was the only thing that reminded me of how unpredictable the future had gotten in a matter of a few months.

A gash of radiant light breaks through the cauldron-black sky seconds after, and it seems as though there's something hidden in the clouds, creating these ruptures of moonstone-yellow lights.

Slowly, the first light of morning began to bleed across the horizon. The dawn didn't arrive with the usual muted grey tones of a chaotic Manhattan morning. Instead, the sun burst through the clouds with an extraordinary, blinding brilliance. Vibrant ribbons of deep gold, crimson, and brilliant pink shattered the dark skyline, casting a warm, luminous glow over the glass towers and the distant, sparkling waters of the Long Island Sound. It was a morning of absolute, unprecedented clarity.

Then, with a dull thud that echoed around the silent room, I shut the book. My gaze shifted toward the grand arched window. It was evening now. Outside, the sky was painted in a bruise-like gradient of deep violet and twilight blue, the gloomy clouds hanging low over the pack grounds while the cool air whistled softly against the glass panes.
