Rivendell Novels & Stories

"That crappy orchard your brother bought. It’s got quite a bit of rosemary in it. Ha! Not only has that dump never made a single dime, we still have to pay a crew to maintain it every year." A thought flickered in my mind. I knew that place. The orchard sat on a ruined silver mine, its trees drawing on the soil and the breath of silver for years, gaining a power to ward off evil. The Haunts came with the wind, but silver tamed the wind. Those trees were worth far more than my mother and brother could ever imagine. If my infant spirits had wielded weapons made from that wood, they would have been unstoppable.

The second thing I noticed was the smell. Iron. Smoke. And… sweetness, that I couldn’t just place, more like rotting fruit. And the third thing? We weren’t alone. Figures moved in the distance, silhouettes against the skyline. The very tall towers pierced the fog, and black stone bridges stretched between them and intertwined. A dark river cut through the valley far below, and was glowing faintly red under the moonlight. “This is…” I trailed off, not sure what word to use. “Ravenhill,” Davorin said simply.

A faint golden static flickered between their skin, warm like sunlight breaking through frost. “I’ll warm it,” he said softly. “So you don’t have to be cold anymore.” Phoenix’s chest seized. She buried her face in his hair, hiding the tremor in her lips. Midnight bled into the East Wing. The analysis finished loading. Target Locked: Deep Abyss Ruins – Central Caldera. Warning: Prime blood required for access. Foreign touch triggers eruption. Footsteps. Rain. Burnt pine. Kael stopped at the three-meter line, hollowed out by guilt.

Inside was a single parchment bearing a cryptic message: "The veil is thinning. Seek the Oracle beneath the Crimson Falls." Puzzled, I summoned Damian to discuss this enigmatic note. "Have you ever encountered this symbol?" I asked, showing him the seal. He examined it closely, his brow furrowing. "No, but the message implies urgency. The 'Crimson Falls' refers to the blood-red waterfalls in the eastern mountains. As for the Oracle, it's likely a reference to an ancient seer rumored to reside there."

It spun faster and faster until, without warning, it stopped. A small section of the globe pulsed faintly, a small town tucked away in the north—Ravenshire. Allen immediately pulled out a small, bone-colored compass with a needle carved out of obsidian, then he took the runestone and pushed it into the back of the compass. “This will activate the minute you set foot in Ravenshire. It’ll point you straight to the source of the ancient magic.” He handed it to me, and the compass felt warm and strangely heavy in my hand.

They needed a place that Aethelgard couldn't touch, a place where they could gather their strength and find a way to fight back. Selene looked at the Archive records on her tablet. She said there was a location mentioned in the oldest scrolls, a place called the Moon’s Cradle. It was an ancient Silverback stronghold, hidden deep within the coastal ranges, protected by the same lunar energy that powered the well. She said it was a myth to most, but the Archive gave the exact coordinates.

His foot was glued on the ground while the beast moved at a deadly pace going down the wide cracked stairs towards their direction. “That is Harewyn, guardian of this forest. We are near the mountain boundary of Mirasaen and Velidia. I’ll be using the Vanire more or less four times to conserve my energy. The Winter Region is a bit far if you are going to travel by horse. Maybe it will take you a week.” “That far?” His eyes broadened. He must learn how to use the transportation magic so that traveling in this world would be handy. Winzi giggled. “You dream about learning the Vanire, but I highly doubt it. Mortal can’t use that kind of power even you can wield magic.”

"Ezra said, ''Going to wind brook is dangerous. we couldn't even make it there in the storm. "Voss said, '' You will you have the zag you can teleport there. "Ezra said, ''We can't use the zag the sky have to be clear for users to use it. The red moon makes everything blurry. "Voss said, '' So that means you have to ride out of the moon valley.

Jamie grinned proudly. "My parents, well, David and Jayne, they had this little cottage on the outskirts of their territory and I am pretty sure it has just been gathering dust since then," Ellie suggested and I couldn't help the smile which covered my face now. This was happening. This was actually going to happen and it was going to be like we were a normal werewolf family for the time we were there.
