Chapter: Chapter 87: The Hidden Passage 
The artifact, the key to everything wasn't what he thought it was. It wasn't a weapon to wield, it was a curse to be avoided. But could they afford to walk away from it now? Dean was too powerful, and without the artifact, how could they ever hope to defeat him?Selene broke the silence, her voice low. "What now?"Vardy didn't have an answer. He had always believed that the artifact was their only hope, but now, everything had changed. They were no longer just fighting for victory, they were fighting for their survival, against an ancient force that could tear them apart."We keep moving," Vardy said, his voice steady despite the turmoil inside. "We keep moving, and we figure out what to do with the artifact. But we need to be careful. That spirit wasn't lying. We have to find a way to use it without letting it destroy us."The group nodded, each gazing at each other.They moved and as they got to the base of Dean's fortress, Selene went ahead but stopped abruptly."This is it," Sel

Chapter: Chapter 86: The Encounter with the Spirit 
Vardy’s instincts kicked in, and he spun around just in time to see a group of Dean’s elite soldiers emerging from the trees, their weapons drawn and aimed at the group.It happened in an instant."Take cover!" Vardy shouted, ducking behind a snowdrift as the soldiers opened fire.They started shooting.Selene was the first to respond, sprinting towards cover as Vardy motioned for the others to follow.Ferah, gritting her teeth, took a few stumbling steps before collapsing against a nearby rock, her side pulsing with pain. Tracy was quick to her side, grabbing her by the arm and pulling her further into cover. "Stay down," Tracy urged, her voice low.I'm fine," Ferah growled, though the strain in her voice was evident. She fought to push through the pain, even as the battle raged around them.Vardy, spotting an opening, stood from behind the snowdrift, his rifle in hand. His aim was precise, and he fired a few rounds, hitting one of the soldiers in the chest. The man fell, but the o

Chapter: Chapter 85: To the Mountains
The visions began to fade, the whispers weakening as Vardy found his center again. Slowly, he exhaled deeply.His pulse steadied, and the world around him came back to normal. His chest heaved, and for a moment, he just stood there, trying to regain his composure."Vardy!" A voice called urgently, sharp and concerned, gazing at him.He blinked, his vision clearing, he turned to find Selene rushing toward him, her face filled with worry. Her footsteps were quick, and before he could gather his thoughts, she was at his side, her hand hovering around to check if he was okay.What’s wrong? What happened?" Her voice was insistent, but Vardy couldn’t bring himself to tell her. Not now. Not yet.He took a deep breath and let it out slowly, steadying himself. "Nothing." His voice came out a little strained, but he forced a calmness into it. "I’m fine."Selene’s brow furrowed as she studied him, clearly not convinced. She didn’t buy it, and he could see the doubt in her eyes. She knew him to

Chapter: Chapter 84: Into The Words
Marcus stood by the door, arms crossed, his expression unreadable. He was used to Dean’s outburst.The energy in the room was suffocating."We can still destroy the Dud," Marcus muttered, his voice low. His eyes were burning.Dean froze. Slowly, he turned, locking his gaze onto Marcus.For a moment, the only sound was the heavy breathing from Dean’s chest. Then, without a word, he stepped past Marcus, his expression unreadable.Marcus exhaled sharply, his jaw clenched.Something had shifted in Dean tonight.And that could only mean one thing, war was coming.***The next day, the sun rose over Haven in a haze.Dean stood before a large map of the city, his fingers tracing the lines of the streets as he spoke in a cold, calculating tone."Set my plan B in motion," he commanded Marcus, his voice sharp and unwavering.Marcus nodded without hesitation, his eyes narrowing in understanding. "It’ll be done."Dean watched as Marcus departed. With a final glance at the city map, Dean let his m

Chapter: Chapter 83: The Horror
Luthor swung at one, but his weapon passed through. “Damn it! They’re not even solid!”Selene fired a glowing arrow. This time, it worked, the creature dissolved in a flash of light.“Magic works,” she called out.But the shadows were endless, slithering through the battlefield, wrapping around the resistance fighters.One latched onto Tracy’s arm. She gasped as her body grew cold. “Vardy….!”He turned, slicing through them with a pulse of dark magic, catching her as she stumbled. “Are you alright?”Tracy nodded, shivering. “We need to end this.”Vardy clenched his fists. “We take the tower now.”Luthor grinned. “Now you’re talking.”Tracy, still catching her breath, gave a firm nod. “I’m coming with you.”Vardy hesitated, but he saw the fire in her eyes. “Then let’s finish this together.”Just then the Altanas called for retreat.“Retreat! Retreat!” Their leader's voice rang through the air.Vardy and his group seized the opportunity to catch their breath even.Tracy breathed, at le

Chapter: Chapter 82: Haven Falls into Chaos
The undead army he had summoned stood behind him, a silent, grim of soldiers with lifeless eyes and broken bodies, waiting for the command to strike.“Get into formation!” Vardy shouted over the chaos, his voice hoarse from the smoke and noise. “We’ll hold them here, keep the streets clear.”His allies, Selene, Luthor, and the rest of the ragtag group, rushed to take their places. But as they moved, the ground shook again, and Vardy’s senses prickled. Something wasn’t right. The ground beneath his boots seemed to ripple, as though the earth itself was reacting to the immense forces clashing above it. He turned just in time to see a group of Altana charging through the smoke.They moved with military precision, expertly encircling the group."Fall back!" Luthor ordered, his voice tight with panic. "They're too many."Vardy’s undead army began to clash with the mercenaries, the sound of bones snapping and metal clanging echoing in every direction. “Hold your ground!” Vardy barked agai
