He stumbled to the door and saw that amidst the heavy rain, the streets of Greenpeak Town were lined with dead bodies. The town was silent apart from the relentless downpour. Wilbur trembled from head to toe, shaking his head vigorously. "No… I couldn't have killed them! It can't be, I didn't do it!"

“A part remained to bury the bodies; the rest are with me.” At this moment Sir Novoveski raised his head, and great astonishment was reflected on his face. “In God's name, what do I see?” cried he. Then he rose, went straight to Mellehov, and said, “Ardun! And what art thou doing here, ruffian?”

Lena stumbled back as the first of the dead pulled itself free, hollow eyes glowing with unnatural green Lena's breath hitched as more skeletal figures emerged, their bodies wrapped in tattered remnants of what might have once been armor or ceremonial robes. The green fire in their hollow eyes pulsed in time with the Rift's energy inside her, a silent call that sent an unnatural chill down her spine.

Eddy joked a playful grin on his face. I closed my eyes exhaling slowly knowing full well that the castle would be waiting. -Valerie’s Pov- If waking up with ringing ears and the room spinning wasn't confusing enough. The scent made me want to bury my head in the sand. The smell of death and pine needles made me instantaneously realize that this wasn't my room. Or even my pack.

Diha was short and plump compared to her sister, a fact Priya never seemed to remember. Diha unlocked the door and opened it, pulling the fabric free. A large hand splayed against the metal door before she could shut it. She followed the arm to a shoulder, then a face, her stomach dropping lower and lower with each inch. Miles Green. Shoot.

My world went white. ********* I woke up to screaming. Not mine. Mont was on the Giant’s shoulder now, driving his blade into the nape of its neck. The charges were set, blinking red. He locked eyes with the Green Man, who had reemerged from the rubble like a storm given form. “Now!” Mont shouted. The Green Man raised both hands. The vines came alive. They surged from every crack in the pavement, every scorched tree, every forgotten root buried under Dust Bowl. They wrapped the Giant from toe to crown.

About five zombies burst through the metal door with guttural cries, staggering toward them. These zombies were not quite the same as the ones Hayley had seen outside.

On their corpse-like, greenish faces, pairs of gray-white eyes bulged grotesquely, the rims bloodshot, as if their eyeballs might drop out at any second.

CHAPTER 9 The Ghost in the No-Man ’s-Land POV: Elara The "Divide" wasn’t just a line on a map; it was a physical atmospheric shift. On the pack side, the air was heavy with the static of magic and the musk of the wild. On the human side, it smelled of exhaust, ozone, and possibility. I stood in the "No-Man’s-Land," a stretch of silver-birch forest where neither law fully applied. The moon was a jagged shard above, and my lungs were whistling; a thin, pathetic sound that mocked my expensive silk coat.

With a click, the clasp came undone, and the pendant fell to the floor. In a flash, Zoe’s eyes widened. She grabbed my collar like a madwoman. “Y-You… You didn’t switch fates?
