Chapter Eight
It was nightfall, the clouds has blocked the moon from view. The letters lay heavy in her lap. There was only one she truely wanted to open. Her lovely Drazan who had never once swayed from her loyalties. The letter on tea stained paper smelt of pine. Opening the letter it read.
ย ย ย ย To my beloved amber,
The days grow shorter every day that I am not in your presence. All is well enough here, worry not. Iโve taken charge of the younglingโs classes as you requested. Niko has been helping me a great deal. He misses you, I think he still blames himself for your leaving. Lord Egon is still devastated and unmoved. He refuses to join in any of the celebrations. I suppose he only ever enjoyed them because you did. He runs council adequately enough.
ย I fear for him sometimes, the other masters grow more brazen with each passing day. Master Kai has demanded my sisterโs hand. Arabella has tried to sway our father but to no real avail. I will soon plead my case to Lord Egon, I know he would act in our favor. Master Kai is relentless in his pursuit of her, my little rose bud. I fear for her sometimes, that I will awake and she will be gone.ย
I donโt truly know what to do, it would be easier if you were here. Youโd fixed this whole thing and probably kill Kai for us. On a happier note Adam has found himself a bride, sheโs quite the gem. They are due to be married in the coming year. You would like her, she rather feisty, and always challenging him. She never wins but it gives us all a good laugh.ย
Kheli is all the same, he still teaches the younglingโs dance class. He was always more particular about dance than our blades. He has yet to ask Adara to dance with him. Itโs rather pitiful to watch. She is always staring right at him too. Itโs amazing how much a coward some can be.ย How I can be
Nevertheless almost everything is well. I fear you will be called back soon. I know youโre busy in the ravkan army. Why you decided to join will never be understood by the others. I hope Alina and Mal are well. Iโm sure youโre all still catching up a ton. Howโs Maja? Iโm sure she misses the smoked meats I would bring her. I miss you greatly. Iโm sure we will see one another soon.ย
ย ย ย ย ย ย With all my Love, your Devoted Helios
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย Drazan Vlaev
Y/n sighed into the air of the night. She too missed Drazan, he was a rare light in her life. The saint herself mustโve sent him to her. She looked about the camp without a care. All these soldiers knew nothing of her faith.
They all looked down at her, like she was less than them for it. A faith they didnโt understand. Cultist they all whispered as she walked. Like she was a mad for believing in a higher power. They had saints, why couldnโt she have just one.ย
The Sol Saint was one of prophecy, they had to believe in a being that didnโt exist yet. All Helios were bound by blood to this saint. No one would deny her faith. She bled, She killed she loved, and she would betray anyone for her saint. Those were the sacrifices of a Helios.ย
But deep within herย ย mind, she pondered . Could she sacrifice Alina? Could she sacrifice Mal? Could she sacrifice all those she cared, dear to her heart? For something she wasnโt even sure it was real. Would she do it? This was the kind of question she should be asking herself. She was a Helios first before anything. Before a sister, before a daughter, before a friend.ย
She had earned the title that had been bestowed upon her .ย
The Blood Helios, none who ever encountered her had left with their lives. She bathed in their blood by herself. And then offered it upon the altar of her saint.ย
She was the Blood Helios, and no one would deny it.ย
She stood next to Mal as the Skiff was boarded. Maja sat obediently as her side, her snout raised high in the air. Y/n rolled her soldiers hand off her gun to Mal. She pet the soft curls of Majaโs white fur. With the soft roll of her shoulders the armor poured down her body.
From her neck it came like silver tears, slowly enveloping her body. Mal raised his brow as she took the gun back. He stares in awe along with the others whom had never seen the cultist in her armor. Y/n moved to the front where Natacha stood, the Inferni in charge of this skiff.
โLooking as lovely as always.โ Y/n smiled at the dark skinned woman before her.
โYouโre not to shabby yourself.โ The words were soft. The pair had become akin to friends. They often flirted softly with one another, truly it was all playful banter. Y/n turned her head, Alina was on the skiff. What in the world was she doing her.ย
Y/n quickly moved over, her small family was arguing quietly. Majaโs eyes followed Alina and Mall tenderly.ย
โAlina get off this fucking Skiff.โ Y/n grabbed into the girls arm. Alina smirked triumphantly and moved past her.ย
โTell them youโre too sick to go.โ Mal pleaded.
โIโm never that sick.โ Alina argued.
โLie if you have to!โ Y/n gripping tightly into Alina.
โAnd whatโs your lie? Iโm with you.โ Y/n shared a look with Mal. She gently pushed her sister it to his side.
โMal, fix this.โ Y/n then turned around, her blood boiling. She smelt the smirk coming off his sister. How stupid could she been. She could all but feel the vibrations of anger coming off the other cartographers. What has her sister done.
Natacha sent her a small look of concern as Y/n stood back by her side. Y/nโs eyes never left Alinaโs. She clicked her tongue, Maja moved to her side. The large wolf sat down and growl at any soldier that got too close to her. Natacha clapped her hands moving forwards, Y/n followed suit.ย
โHereโs how it goes. We go into the Fold, it gets dark but we like it dark. That keeps us from drawing attention. Thatโs how we travel. The only light we use is the blue one at the mast.โ Y/n kept her eyes on Alina. She looked so defenseless standing alone.
โItโs weak but safe.โ Natacha continued.ย
โBut youโre an Inferni, right? So why are you here if weโre supposed to keep things dark?โ Raisa asked. Y/n rolled her eyes at the stupid question, cartographers were the smartest.ย
โFor when the dark comes to keep you.โ Raisa raised her brow.ย
โAnd whatโs about the Cultist?โ Y/n turned her gaze to the cartographer leader.ย
โFor when we cannot defeat dark with fire, we send in someone who will devour the darkness.โ Natachaโs voice carried an emblem of anger. The other soldiers turned to her with fear in their eyes. Y/n saw the small smirk that was sent her way.ย
Natacha never ceased to amuse her, and to feed into the cultist, rumors that many believed about her.
โWhereโs your general? Kirigan?โ Mal asked. Y/n blinked a few times at the mention of the Darkling. He could stay in the dark where he bathed. The skiffs sail was released and theย ย skiff jutted forwards.
โThatโs our cue.โ Natacha and Y/n moved in sync. Y/n now stood at the front of the skiff and Natacha by the blue light. From above the squaller began to move the skiff towards the fold.ย
Natacha sent a small nod towards Y/n, with a smile the Helios moved towards her sisterโs side. Y/n stood in front of her as the small ribbon holding her hair back came loose. From the front the sergeant began to speak, but these words did not matter in her mind.
Alina was on a skiff, Mal was in this skiff. The two people she never wanted to see the inside of the fold. The heavy winds blew her hair back, the ribbon followed off. Y/n barely turned her head to look at it. Alinaโs scarf had too come off.ย
She watched the two pieces of fabric float through the wind. Her eyes followed them till they passed the dock. On the dock a man stood, shrouded in black. He watched the skiff so intently, Y/n knew he couldnโt she see herself staring back at him.ย
It didnโt matter, as Alina sough out her armored hand. Y/n clutched it softly as Mal. came to her side.
โIโm pretty sure this the first time Iโve seen you all armored up.โย Malโs words shouldโve brought a smile to her face. It didnโt.
โIn we go.โ Natacha mumbled. Y/n reached to her side, pulling out the small cuff. It was of pure gold and has a sun rested in its middle. She placed it in her forearm. The metal infused with her silver armor, a soft glow embroidered it.ย
From her hand a crossbow of light emerged, an arrow already knocked in it. The glow died down quickly as she raised the crossbow. She took in a deep breath and closed her eyes. Alina and Mal were now her top priority. All others could be forsaken.ย
The darkness enveloped her body, it as oddly warm to her. It encased her, welcomed her home as it always did. Opening her eyes she listened to the growling of the Volcra that flew around them. She could feel every vibration they caused. Terror coated Alinaโs face as she clung onto Y/n.ย
As the skiff moved slowly, Y/n watched the darkened skyโs. When the first marker approached she rolled her shoulders. The holy cuff didnโt shine as it did in the sunlight. It was muted now, but no less dangerous.
โMarker one.โ Natacha voiced as she passed the two sisters. Alina looked behind her to the Inferni.
โHow many more are there?โ Y/n opened her mouth to soothe her sister. Not many Y/n would lie.
โThirty seven.โ Natacha said walking away. Y/n sighed softly as she watched Alinaโs face drop. Mal looked back at the two sisters. With a nod from Y/n he tore his gaze away. The anger Y/n felt was all the same, Alina should not be there.ย
The volcra above screeched and growled as they flew. The rhythmic vibrations of there wings was enough to lull Y/n to sleep. It seemed to push at her eyelids, to force them down. She could never listen to closely to the volcra or she would sleep.
Raisaโs accusatory gaze found Alinaโs as they passed a fallen ship. A particularly loud growl frightened the gunman into to ready positions. Y/n remained where she was. She pushed Alina to sit on the floor as she joined the grisha. They moved about the skiff quietly, but no where near as silent as Y/n.ย
With all the armor on she was still as silent as snow. Slowly the blue light began to go out. Natacha moved to it quickly, hitting the glass. Y/n quickly moved next to her and opened the lantern. She sprinkled in a soft blue powder from a small pouch at her side. She blowed softly on it, the blue flame caught once more.ย
Natacha and Y/n shared a calm look for a few seconds till the sound of a lighter interrupted the peace. Y/n whipped around to see one of the soldiers holding a lit lantern. A tremble seemed to be through the air.ย
โBlow it out! What are you doing?โ Natacha whispered, there was a tremor in her. From behind the boy came growling. Horrible, gut wrenching growling. From behind the boy a Volcra rose to its full height. Y/n shot out the golden arrow from her bow quickly.ย
The Volcra screeched and flew away with a limp. It was all too late though. Another Volcra swarmed down, grabbing the boy. It bit down onto his leg and flew off no matter how many arrows she shot. The lantern fell down, its fire quickly emerging across the wooden boards.
From all around the Volcra growled. Y/n looked back at Alina, she was crouching next to the fire. Y/n stood in front of her sister, crossbow knocked with another arrow. Like the demons they were the Volcra swept through the skiff. The squaller moving the skiff was gone next.ย
Y/n began to fire automatically, each golden arrow erupted in sunlight when piercing the flesh of the Volcra. They reappeared after every shot fire. Raisa was gone next, the Volcra having taking a bite of her shoulder. The blood drips onto her face as the Volcra carried her away. Y/n dropped down, shielding Alina as the side broke down in flames.
Y/n stood back up her hands going back to her cross bow. She fired each arrow as a body fell next to her. Alinaโs vibrations were quivering as she shrunk away from the manโs still moving corpse. Y/n coughed as smoke rose up. Her helmet slowly infused into her neck.
Y/n pulled the thing off, she needed to be able to see Alina. Her eyes drifted for a seconds to Mal. A Volcra swept over him dangerously close. Y/n shot out an arrow. It wasnโt fast enough. Mal ducked before the Volcra could grab him. The crossbow disappears in a buff of gold as she reached down.ย
She pulled the twin daggers from her side, lodging them into a Volcra that swept too close to her. They cried out in pain as she raised her hand, the daggers flying back to their master. This was a suicide mission and Y/n knew it. Not many would survive this.ย
Y/n looked down at Alina for a seconds. She knelt down and handed her sister a dagger.
It was a subtle plead.
โDonโt move.โ She commanded as she moved away. She couldnโt let all these people die, it would be a shame to her abilities if she couldnโt save them. Her dangers flew from her hands and came back. It was like a dance as she moved quickly around the skiff, killing any Volcra in her path.
Maja barked wildly, attacking all the Volcra in sight. The ones that got to close to her and Alina that was. Her teeth were coated in black.ย
โCome at me! Come at me you cowards!โ Natacha screamed as a Volcra took her by the shoulder. Y/n threw herself forward towards the Volcra. Her dagger flew into its neck as she tore its head from its body. Itโs blackened blood sprayed all over her as she caught Natacha in her arms.
She was breathing hoarsely, there was a hold in her neck. Y/n pushed her hands into the large wound on her shoulder. Tears flooded her eyes, this wasnโt happening. Natacha had always been kind to her. Didnโt care for her extreme faith.ย
โNo no no no no no! NO! Donโt close your eyes!โ Y/n held her friends tore body as she died. Her blue kefta was destroyed as she laid down her body. This wasnโt supposed to happen, not to them. Y/n stood up and her daggers formed into large swords. They sliced the Volcra clean in half before two grisha.
Y/n heard screaming, Malโs screams. She turned around, sweat and blood dripping down her face. She threw herself forward quickly. Blood seemed to envelope her vision as she stabbed into the flying demon. Malโs body dropped down as Y/n pieced its wings. The stupid animal dropped down, its blood all over her. Y/n coughed as the blood dripped into her mouth.ย
She crawl desperately over to Mal, who was held by Alina. She hadnโt protected them like she promised. She failed them. She gripped into Malโs other hands as the chaos continued around them. She could feel his vibrations, they werenโt as strong as normal.ย
She failed.
Tears covered his face as she whispered his name, โMal?โ Maja whined softly and licked the side of his face.ย
The fire flickered around, its lights illuminating her face. The two sisters clung into him as nothing else seemed to exist. Her mouth tasted of iron and rot. She could help but sob as she held him. Her family, her small family was about to be smaller.
His vibrations echoed in her ears as she sniffled. Alina cried at her side as they held him. They two refused to let go of him. Her armor fell she clung to him, his skin to buzz. She felt a ringing in her ears, like a twinkle.ย
โIโll meet you two at the meadow.โ His words froze her sobs as he spoke. She couldnโt let such a thing happen. She cried softly as she felt wind blow around her. Alina was pulled up, a volcraโs claws around her waist. Noโฆโฆ
Y/n still clutching Malโs hand threw herself up. Her bare hand caught into Alinaโs, fear and panic all over her face. It was warm, as she clung into her family her body became warm. A light began to grow out of her body and she clung to them.ย
Light exploded from her body, the overwhelming sensation grew as another source of light grew with her. It surrounded around the skiff, throwing the shadows back from the world. Then her world was blank.
Everything was foggy, her vision, her hearing her mind. She could feel every vibration around them. The heavy hands around her, as her legs laid limp. They dragged her to gods know where. She was bleeding, somewhere in her body she was bleeding. Probably her leg, it felt like it was on fire.
Where was Alina.ย
Where was her sisterโฆ..
Well her saint she supposed. She watched it happen, her sister could summon light. Alina has saved them all. What was left of them she guessed.ย
She could hear the loud and quickly movement of the guards, the healer that ran next to them.
โMalโฆ. Linaโฆ..Majaโฆ.โ She coughed as she felt a bone boop back into place.ย
โCareful! Are going to hurt her dragging g her like that!โ The healers voice was timid but loud. The men dragged her didnโt listen as she moved. Her ears rung, she could feel the blood dripping down her ears. Her armor was covered in a thick layer of blood.
Maja barked loudly as she followed. The men tried to kick at her. Y/n jerked away ready to kill them for trying to hurt her wolf. Maja growls as she followed them. Her fur was covered in black. Y/n knew how much she hates to be messy. She would give her sweet girl a nice hot bath once this was over.ย
She opened her eyes to a fuzzy worlds. Grisha moved out of her way, dread coating their faces. She mustโve looked like animal, wounded and bloody. Her hair fell, covering her face.ย
โWhere is she?โ The healer squeaked at the sound of her voice, rough and dangerous. The young healer and blinked a few times as she held her hands together.
โBehind us,โ She paused looking at the man dragged Y/n. โStop dragging her like that! Youโre going to break her arm.โ They did not listen as the healer followed them. The black tent was moved aside and she was forced in. Her knees hit the ground, her armor clanking. She coughed for a seconds and took in a breath.
She focused herself, listening to the vibrations of the world. A hush has fallen over the tent. It opened once more and she felt Alina. Her eyes jumped open as she felt her sister pull away from the guards. Alinaโs trembling hands wound around her shoulder. The cold bits of armor touching her sisterโs skin.
Y/n hugged her sister tightly, her hand resting atop her head. Alina smelt of smoke, not the normal scent. Her legs and body was weak. But she smiled at Alina as the girl pulled back.ย
โBring them closer.โ Her eyes snapped to the voice before her. He stood, back to them as guards grabbed into the girls. Her elbow forced its way to a guards face when her tried to grab Alina. She stood on her shaking legs, hiding her sister behind her.
She took a small step for them, Alina clung to Y/n. Her smaller frame hidden behind the grime covered armor of her sister. Y/n would not let this man anywhere near her sister. Herโฆ. Her saint.ย
Slowly the man turned, her eyes went blank. It was him. The Darkling, The black general, the shadow summoner. He was the man who plagued her dreams. His dark eyes were the ones that she would think about.ย
Alina grabbed onto Y/nโs hand, her armor now covered her once more. Y/n glare at him, piecing into those dark eyes like she never had.ย ย If only looks could kill.ย
โCloser.โ His words were like honey to her ears. All she could feel now was him. His vibrations were steady, like an unmoving mountain with the force to shake the earth. Y/n would not submit and move closer.
She remained right where she stood. A pillar of strength and might. A Helios ready to slaughter any in her path. Alina gently nudged her, obviously afraid of reprisals. Y/n took a small step, Alina followed behind.
โWell?โ He asked. The glare did not leave her face. She studied him, he was perfect. At every angle he was perfect. Just like in every dream he was perfect. He was taller than her, like in her dreams.
โWell what?โฆโ After a few seconds Alina timidly added, โSir.โย
She hated the way Alina sounded so afraid. The way she hide behind the strength that her sister held. Her hand trembled still.
โWhat are you? His gaze wasnโt on Alina. They two stared deeply into the other. Y/nโs e/c eyes refused to break away. His dark origins watched her every move. Like a hawk he stared at Y/n.
โAlina Starkov, Assistant Cartographer, Royal Corps of Surveyors.โ Alina trembled. She didnโt speak, she didnโt owe the Darkling the luxury of her name. His eyes didnโt leave hers. He just waited in silence for her name. Glaring at him she relented.
โY/n Starkov, Private Commander, Royal Corps of Combat, Blood Helios of the First Armyโ His lips perked up at the sound of her voice. She didnโt like that at all.ย
โTheyโre all gone.โ Alina mumbled.
โItโs our fault. Thatโs why weโre here ainโt it?โ She whispered clinging into Y/nโs hand. The Darkling raised his hand suddenly.ย
โAnswer the question.โ Why was he speaking like that. Why was he staring at her. They way he spoke, moving like he was trying to coax a frightened doe towards himself. Is that what he thought her? A scared doe? And not the blood thirsty beast. Maja growled as the Darkling slowly leaded against the table behind him.ย
โWhat are you?โ Y/n felt Alina flicker, she was confused.
โA mapmaker, sir.โ
โA Helios.โ They laughed. A growl came from Maja and Y/n in sync. They dared to laugh int here faces. Where was the honor in this grisha.
โQuiet.โ They all went silent. Maja too quiet down and sat by her side. He hadnโt even raised his voice an ounce. He made Maja just sit down by her side. No one had even done such a thing to her wolf.
The Darkling stared at her, his eyes trailing down her. He tore his eyes away looking around the tent.ย
โSo who actually saw what happened?โ There was a hush over the crowd. His eyes turned to the dirty Suli girl at there side. She was one of the grisha whom she decapitated the Volcra in front of.
โZoya? You manned the main sail.โ His voice was a bit more harsh now. A twinkle of anger was on his face.
โWe were attacked barely two markers in.โ Zoya swallowed and continued. โSomeone lit a lantern.โ His eyes trailed back to Y/nโs.ย
โAnd?โย
โThe Volcra went after the ruffle man and our Inferni first, the Cultist tired to kill most of them but-
โCultist?โ He asked. She moved her eyes to Zoya, they seemed to darken. Y/n had saved her life. Ungrateful fucking girl. Cultist they still called her. After she saved them they would still call her cultist.ย
Zoya frozen back a little upon the question. She looked back at Y/n and the Darkling seemed to make the connection.
โThe armored one was killing the Volcra.โ Zoya restated. She couldnโt even be bothered to call her what she was. Helios, was it that hard to remember. The Darkling nodded in her direction, his eyes never leaving Y/n.
โAnd then there was a searing light, one white and other a more silver color.โ Zoya finished.
โIt was them.โ The other voice rang out. Y/n glare at the man who spoke. Alina hid further behind Y/n.
โOur Helios and mapmaker.โ He tilted his head.
โIs this true? Can you both summon light?โ Alina shook her head in shocked. The Darkling followed her motion mocking her. He mocked her sister. Her saint! The fear that radiated off Alina was enough to make Y/n want to kill this Darkling.ย
โWhere did you grow up?โ Y/n wasnโt sure how to answer. For her first twelve years it was in Keramzin, but after that it was in the sanctuary. She wouldnโt tell him where her home was. She didnโt need to.
โKeramzin.โ Alina muttered, The Darklingโs eyes remained on her own. Like he expected a different answer. He would get none.ย
โAnd when were you tested.โ Never, that was only answer. They hadnโt been properly tested. The scars on their hands were proof enough.
โYou donโt remember?โ He asked. She pushed Alina further behind her body as the Darkling moved towards them.
โWell let us just make certain.โ Every step he took was a personal attack. He removed his ring and pushed a small claw like blade from it. She felt Alina quiver in her grip. Her heart sank to the bottom pits of death as she took a step back.
โLift up your sleeve,โ He paused looking at her. โRemove your armor.โ He stood right above her. She didnโt think, the dagger manifested before she could stop herself. It pressed into his stomach as she clutched it.ย
โMove closer, and I will gut your intestines out and shove them down your throat.โ A collective gasp rang through the tent. The oprichniki took a step towards her, the threat that she was. He simply waved them off, like fussing children.
โWhy do they call you cultist?โ He softly asked, the faintest of smirks on his face. She twisted the blade in her grip.ย
โBecause I have killed and will kill for my faith.โ He hummed once. Her heart began to beat loudly in her ears. Its intensity changed, beating harder with every pulse. She choked in her breath as the dagger hit the floor.ย
She stood there as she felt her body begin to shift. Her gaze tired to the other grisha, the ones in red keftaโs. One of them had his hands together, he was messing with her. It wasnโt enough to shake her though. She coughed softly as she took long slow breathes.
Another soon joined him, then another, and another till all the Heartrenderโs stood firm. Her body sank to the ground as she fought the effects. Blood dripped down her nose, mouth and ears. She coughed as she tried to force her way back up.ย
The Darkling took small steps around her. His eyes never leaving her fighting crumpled form. She watched in horror as he grabbed onto her sister, her Alina. Maja growled and barked loudly, piercing through all their ears. However the wolf refused to leave Y/nโs side as she tried to fight.
The room began to buzz as she hands shook. The vibrations of every living thing amplified. The heartrenderโs hands began to shake as the dark room began to shift. Slowly she lifted her body, fighting there manipulations of her body with her own.ย
The first grisha who stood to stop her glare, his harsh eyes trying to force her back down. It was too late now, her armor had deflected most of the others. Her vibrations only grew as others covered their ears.ย
The moment she stood up right a wave of light hit her. She body froze as she watched. From the small cut came a blaze of light. It was the sun ten fold. Her mind was blank. Alina really was her saint. The very saint she was supposed to protect with her life.ย
She fell to one knee in shock as the lights slowly faded away. Alinaโs eyes drifted over to Y/nโs so fearful of what she was. The two sisters didnโt have words. What words could they express.
Alina was her saint. The being sheโd been worshiping since childhood. A saint that was prophesied to come. No one knew when, it was an old tale.ย
Y/n had killed for her, in the name of her sister. Her saint that she never knew about. How could she now know. Before the globes, before she left she held Alina. Held her hand, her body so many times.ย
The two were always cut up, maybe that was why. She couldnโt move as the oprichniki grabbed into her. She watched for a few fleeting seconds as they dragged her sister away.ย
Her body flew up trying to follow. A right hand gripped into her arm. She looked back and there he was. The Darkling. Her natural enemy. What was she to do now. She pulled away, she wiped at the blood.ย
โWhere are you taking her!โ He tilted his head.ย
โWhat are you.โ Again with such a stupid question.ย
โWhere is she going?โ He stared down at her, marveled at what we before him. She blinked a few times, unsure.ย
โLet your armor fall.โ Scoffed out loud, her eyes rolling back. She would sooner die, she would sooner kill every single person in the tent than let him any closer. Maja barked loudly, he sighed once.ย
The same heartrender from before held his hands up. Whining Maja slowly laid down, her eyes fluttering. She felt his arm tightly around her. She jerked away, trying to reach her wolf.ย
โStop it! What are you doing! STOP IT!โ She yelled. He just looked at her, like a predator would its prey. He has no idea she was the apex in this situation. His gaze was so strange as she jerked her arm.ย
โLower your armor.โ She didnโt stop, he froze for a moment then added a gentle, โPlease.โ
She sighed as the armor slowly rang back up her body. Her uniform was tattered and blood seeped through the pants. Her pulled her closer, his grip around her sleeve. She could smell him, it was intoxicating. She looked up at him, her mask breaking for a moment.
She was afraid, angrily she was afraid. What kind of soldier was she to be afraid of her enemy. That was how wars were so often lost. His hand gently grabbed her broken sleeve pulling it up.ย
His bare hand went to regrab her. She shock for a few seconds, terror engulfed her. It was like the water was forcing its way down her lungs once more. Her secret was about to be exposed to her enemy. Her breath left her body in pieces.
โPleaseโฆ donโt.โ Sheโd never begged before. His eye softened as his bare fingers brushed against her flesh. They just stared for a while. Something inside her changed, like a small switch was flipped. His grip became more prominent and there it was. Shadows erupted from him, casting themselves all over.ย
And then without so much as a prick she was glowing. Her body was warm as silver began to spread out of her body. It was like a ragged inferno that only grew. Around them the shadows mixed with her silver, twisting and braiding together.ย
Gasps came from all those in the tent, it was like eating the formation of a star. She didnโt move, didnโt breathe as it all stopped. A real smile came onto his lips as she stood horrified.ย
Blasphemyโฆ. That was what her life now was. She was blasphemous.ย
โA moon summonerโฆโ He paused and then there was a softer voice. โAnd an amplifier.โ
She was ruined now, nothing would save her now.ย

Hello, I was the one who sent the request about king!sirius having many concubines. I really like your writing on it, and it fits my imagination๐ฅบ๐ซถ๐ป.
If possible, I would like to ask for another request. This time it's about Matteo Riddle. Mattheo was told to remarry by his father, Tom, because his wife had not produced a son. Even though his wife never gave birth to a son, Mattheo had a daughter who was already a teenager. When told to remarry, Mattheo immediately became angry with his father, because he only loved his wife, and insisted that his daughter was his heir. Mattheo will 'eliminate' anyone who dares to 'remove' his daughter from her status and right as heir.
By the way, may I be ๐ฉฐ Anon
a/n : Hope you enjoy, but what is an anon? Iโm relatively new to all this. Also I changed the daughter from a teen to like 12.
Warnings : period misogyny, almost deadly child birth and pregnancy, allusion to smut, allusions to Reader having a more fragile body, Mattheo and Reader having an arranged marriage

Matthew Riddle x Fem! Reader
Mattheo had never thought heโd glared so fiercely before. His father, Tom Riddle, the one who usurped the throne for his great grandfather, now know as King Voldemort stared down at him with mild interest. Mattheo his only heir had one child. That child was the Princess Morgana.
Mattheo and his wife, the Lady Y/n Riddle had one child. Lady Y/nโs body wasnโt meant for such strenuous things. With how bad her pregnancy was they assumed that her child would be a boy.
After a long and difficult labor, Y/n battling for her and her childโs life, Morgana was born. Y/nโs recovery was a long and challenging journey, her healer informed her it would be against her if she bore another child. Y/n would stay up late at night with her darling daughter in her arms, fearful her father would wish her a boy.
But Mattheo doted on his daughter every chance he could. He sat with her in the darkness of her room to โprotectโ her from monsters. Heโd duel with wooden swords with her. He loved his beautiful Y/n for gifting him with such a wonderful child.
The King Voldemort however was not pleased. The women he chose to be his sons bride was worthless. She hadnโt provided a male heir, she had failed at her one job as his sonโs wife. So he found a solution.
โAre you being serious Father?โ Mattheoโs voice rang through the throne room. His fatherโs advisors turned away, not wanting to face the princes wrath.
โLady Daphne would make an excellent wife, she would give you sons.โ Mattheoโs eyes raged with fury at his fatherโs words. How dare he! He had no right.
โI have no need for sons, I have my heir!โ Mattheo voiced his tone bordering a scream. Voldemort rolled his snake eyes and shrugged.
โYou have a daughter, a girl unfit to rule.โ
โMy daughter is my heir!โ
The room went dead silent. It was unheard of for a father to allow his daughter to be his heir. Mattheo remembered every moment from his daughter creation to now. Mattheo didnโt make love to Y/n on the night of there marriage. He wanted her love before he force a child into her.
For months the pair grew their relationship, and then they decided they wanted a child. Mattheo was fearful, he knew his wife well enough to see her lose her breath so easily, to see her fatigue in the cold.
When both Y/n and Morgana survived, Mattheo made a vow. That for his wifeโs hard labor his child would sit his throne. His daughter would be queen one day. Morgana grew to be a mommyโs girl with no doubt in his mind. Although Morgana looked and acted so similar to Mattheo, she was never far from her mothers side.
โI will not remarry, my wife is very much alive!โ Mattheo roared. Voldemort stood from his throne as Matthe stepped forward.
โIโm saying divorce your wife, send Morgana away with her and give this kingdom a true heir!โ Mattheo froze on the spot. Leave Y/nโฆ leave Morgana. Mattheo didnโt allow another word and quickly left the room. He ignored his fathers shouts for him as he marched outside.
Mattheo walked outside and saw them. His darling wife and daughter played in the meadow around the castle. Y/n sat braiding flowers into a crown as Morgana chased a butterfly. Y/nโs green dress blended into the greenery around her. Morganaโs silver dress sparkled brightly as she chased the orange butterfly.
Mattheo slowly walked over to Y/n and tackled her into the ground. Y/n shrieked in surprise as Mattheo began to litter kisses all over her neck and face.
โMattheo!โY/ n squealed happily. Mattheo brought his wife into his lap holding gently onto her waist. Mattheo stared into Y/nโs dazzling e/c eyes. Y/n stared at her husbands face for a while, she gently cupped his cheek.
โWhatโs wrong my love, youโre troubled.โ Mattheo leaned into her touch. Her hands were so delicate.
โI am fine darling, I promise.โ Y/n nodded softly deciding not to pry. She placed the flower crown on his head with a smile.
โPapa! Mama! Look what Iโve caught!โ Morgana yelled as she plopped down next to her mother. Y/n gently brought Morgana closer and placed a crown on her head.
โWhat is it Morgana?โ Morganaโs hands slowly opened to reveal the orange butterfly in her hands. The butterfly crawled into Y/nโs outreached hand. There was a small tear in its wing.
โCan you fix him Mama?โ Y/n giggled softly.
โHow do you know heโs a he?โ
Morgana pouted softly, her brows furring. She nuzzled into Y/n and she placed her motherโs crown on her head.
โYes I can fix him.โ Y/nโs hands began to glow softly. The butterfly began to glow, then his wing was perfectly clear. The butterfly flew away quickly and Morgana stared at it in awe. Mattheo stared at his lovely little family.
โMy daughter will be queen, I will make sure of that, no one will challenge you my darling.โ Mattheo thought as he stared at his daughter.
hi!! do you have any rules for the requests?? like no smut or something like that??
Not really, Iโm pretty good with everything! ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
As usual, your writing is amazing and you did exactly as I asked. I still find it hard to believe that you can just write my requests the day I put them out, yet here we are. Iโll probably have another request sooner than later, but for now I am content. Also, Percy licking the tears and Annabeth forcing the reader to watch their sister get murdered is great; dark Percabeth is just so great in my opinion. Thank you again for taking the time to write my request; have a great day :)
-๐ช
No problem, I live writing all your requests. Feel free to send any other fandoms too, and I hope you continue to enjoy my writings.
Wow, you wrote that super fast! And I love that you used Little Shop of Horrors for the play; itโs quite literally one of my favorites, and probably my favorite musical (except maybe the SpongeBob Musical). Itโs exactly what I was hoping for and I really appreciate it! Iโll probably end up sending you another request at some point (maybe even today if I think of one and you can get to it whenever you feel like it), so sorry in advance๐
Thanks again for writing that, and Iโll definitely be checking out your blog some more; have a great day :)
-๐ช
P.S. do you roleplay by chance? If so, would you mind if I shot you a message? Thanks :)
Iโm glad you liked it, send in as many as you want. Sadly I donโt rp, but I hope you enjoy my writings.
Can someone help me make a master list??? I donโt know how and I hate how unorganized my works are.
So as we enter the actual series I think I need some help. Iโm having a bit of trouble making Alice!readerโs hero name. I have a few ideas but I would love some suggestions from yโall.
Nemesis: A goddess of revenge and justice
Serenity: the state of being calm, peaceful, andย untroubled
Wonder Rose: The Roses of Wonderland are the symbol of the Second Alice and are a part of all the teas Alice!reader drinks
Querencia: A place where one feels safe; a place from which one's strength of character is drawn
Paracosm: a detailed, imaginary world created by a child involving humans, aliens, and supernatural creatures
This will not be a final decision but will hold a great influence cause Iโm indecisive.

Warnings: smut, p in v sex, chocking, praise kink, dom reader sub Caspian
King Caspian x fem! Reader
The castle of Narnia had long since gone silent, the night sky taking over. All was quiet except the chambers of the king with his new queen. The guards had long since moved away from the chamber door. The sounds of skin slapping against skin and moans causing blush to ride up there cheek.
In side there chamber Y/n get out a high pitched moan as Caspian suck at her neck as she roll her hips against his. Caspian grunted softly as he grasped at her moving hips, attempting to steady himself as she fucked herself on his cock.
Caspian stared up at his beautiful new wife, his wife. He held tightly onto the soft plush of his body. Her lewd moaning driving Caspian insane. Her hands grasp tightly on his shoulders as she moved her hips. Her greedy cunt sucking in her new husbandโs cock into her.
Caspian panted and groan as Y/n sped up her pace. Caspian slowly grabbed one of the hands and placed it gently around his neck. Y/n watched him in confusion as she slowed her pace slightly.
โCas?โ Caspian chuckled slightly and nudged her to grip his neck tightly.
โPlease love.โ Y/n stared down at her husband with an awe stricken look. She sped her pace up again and Caspian slipped a hand to her little bundle of nerves. Y/n whined softly as her grip on Caspianโs neck tightened. Caspian groaned loudly as her grip tightened.
โYou like that my king?โ Y/n muttered as Caspian groaned. The coil was being to clench inside of her as she panted. Caspian nodded his head hurriedly as he rubbed quick and messy circles on her nub. The coil inside of her threatened to burst as each movement of her hips.
Caspian grew louder and louder as Y/n gripped onto his neck. Caspian could feel himself falling deep into her. Her eyes, her body, her lovely cunt, her soft hand around his neck
โPleaseโฆโ Y/n giggled softly as she began to feel the coil snap.
โAre you going to cum for me? Please come for me.โ Y/n mumbled against him as they moved in sync. They couldnโt tell who climaxed first. Whether it was Caspian being thrown over the edge by Y/nโs hand on his neck. Or if it was Y/nโs coil breaking as Caspian rubbed at her pearl.
The pair panted as Caspian brought Y/n closer to himself. Y/n fell to his side and cuddled into him as there mixed cum dripped down her thighs. Y/n gently looked at his neck, she gently bite her lip.
โI didnโt hurt you did I?โ Caspian shock his head with a smile. โYou could never hurt me.โ Caspian muttered as Y/n kissed the red of his neck.
โI love you, my dearest husband.โ
โAnd I love you more, my dearest wife.โ

Chapter Five
A cold air whipped around Y/n as she forced herself off the ground. The snow covered ground caused her skin to go cold and the falling snow invaded her cloudy eyes. Y/n heard the soft groaning of Isla, Niko, Zan, and Kheli. Y/n pushed her body off the ground as her sight kicked in.ย
Y/n ran to Isla and quickly helped her up. Isla shook from the cold, Y/n quickly removed her cloak and wrapped it tightly around the smaller girl. Niko helped the other boys up and turned to Y/n.
โWhere the hell are we?โ Zan yelled as snow whipped around them. Niko groans and rubbed his arms. As he did so he found a small note in his pocket. It read.
๐๐๐๐ซ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฌ

They all groaned in frustration as they looked around. They were in a snow covered area with no people in sight. Thereโs a lot of snow, too much snow. Trees covered in snow, the forest was large and vast.ย
โHow will we know who speaks the language? We donโt even know where we are!โ Zan yelled. Kheli sighed softly and dusted snow off his pants. Niko walked over to him and grabbed Y/nโa shoulder.ย
โI think we should find a village of some sorts. Maybe weโll find this ring of Sol there.โ Niko suggested.ย ย With a small sigh they all began to walk through the snow covered ground. Y/n tied the blue ribbon tightly around Isla as they walked.
As they all moved through the woods Y/n surveyed the area around them. It was quiet far to quiet for Y/nโs liking, all she could hear were there steps on the snow. Every minute or so Y/n would count everyoneโs steps. Sheโd count five pairs of footsteps all together.
The winds whipped around the ground, messing with there hairs, the dry air causing Niko to cough a few times. Y/n felt the vibrations around them. There were more then there group. Y/n froze her eyes darting around. Thatโs when she saw it, some men dressed warm fur cloaks, dressed in black uniforms, and weapons.
๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊
Y/n grabbed tightly onto Isla and dashed away. Niko, Kheli andย ย Zan followed after her as the pair ran. The snow pools around their feet as they run, a village came into view.ย
Their feet were heavy against the ground as they panted. Islaโs soft hand tightly knitted into Y/nโs calloused hand. The group runs into the bustling town, narrowly avoiding people as they run.ย
โ๊๊๊ฆ๊ฃ ๊๊ ๊๊ต! โ A booming called out from behind them. A giant of a man grabbed into Isla yanking her, causing Y/n to hit the ground with a thud. The blue ribbon around his wrist causing Y/n to be dragged.ย
Niko and Zan stopped running and turned back ready to activate their armor. Kheli was grasped onto by a giant blonde made of pure muscle. Y/n raised her hand motioning them to stop. Fjerdan, they spoke fjerdan.
She understood there language, she was in charge. A rough hand picked her up and her sight allowed her to see his face. He was taller than any man sheโd ever seen. A large scar traced down his face from his eyes down to the bottom on his chin. His eyes were icy and sharp, peering into Y/nโs cloudy ones.ย
โ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ช๊ฆ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊๊ธ๊ช๊๊ค! ๊๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊ฉ๊๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊๊ ๊๊๊ฆ๊๊ธ๊ฉ.โ He spoke his voice booming all around. Isla struggled in his grip.
โ๊๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ช ๊ ๊ฆ.โ Y/n demanded. The ๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊ looked over at her, and furrowed their brows. Who was this tiny girl. Why were her eyeโs and her companions eyes white.ย
โ๊๊ ๊๊ฉ ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊ช๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊๊ ๊๊! ๊๊๊ช๊ค ๊๊ ๊๊ต!โ An older woman with a hunched back and cane yelled. Islaโs eyes widen in distress and she tried to pull away but to no avail. Niko and Zan stood frozen as two more ๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊๊ nabbed them into their iron grip. Kheli struggled and the blonde dug his nails into Kheliโs skin.
โ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ฃ๊๊๊๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊๊๊ค๊ ๊๊๊ ๊. ๊ค๊ ๊๊ ๊โ๊ ๊ ๊ช๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ค ๊ ๊ ๊ต๊๊๊-โ The man holding Niko began but Y/n interrupted him.
โ๊ค๊ฆ! ๊ฃ๊๊๊๊๊! ๊ ๊โ๊ช๊ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊ช๊ค๊๊ ๊! ๊ ๊โ๊ช๊ ๊ฆ๊ช๊ฃ๊ ๊๊ค๊!โ Y/n screamed. Niko, Zan, Kheli and Isla paled and lowered their gaze away. The fjerdanโs all froze and the one holding Y/n lowered her to the ground.ย
โ๊๊ผ๊๊๊๊ ๊ต๊?โ He questioned as he set Isla onto the winter ground. Y/n quickly pulled Isla behind her. Niko and Zan were placed on the ground.ย
โ๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊๊๊ต๊ค๊๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ช๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊๊. ๊๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ช๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊๊ฉ๊ ๊๊ค๊ ๊ ๊. ๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊๊๊ต๊ค๊๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊ค๊ฆ ๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ค ๊๊ ๊๊ค๊ฉ๊ต๊ฆ๊ช๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ฉ.โ Y/n lied smoothly. Niko quickly pulled Zan towards Y/n and they all stood behind Y/n.
The blonde kept his grip on Kheli. Y/n looked over at Kheli, and with a small shake of his head Y/n turned back to the ๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊ in front of her. The scared man stared down at her, a mix of pity and anger in his icy eyes.ย
โ๊ ๊ ๊ฉ ๊ธ๊ค๊ธ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ช๊๊ค?โ The scared man questioned. Y/n froze, she thought quickly. Her mind raced with possibilities.
โ๊ค ๊ ๊๊๊ช๊ธ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊, ๊ค ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ช๊ค๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ค๊๊ธ. ๊ ๊ ๊ฆ ๊ ๊ฆ๊๊๊ธ๊คโ๊ ๊ช๊๊ค ๊ฆ๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ฉ ๊ ๊๊๊ช ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ค๊ค ๊๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ฆ๊ฆ๊ธ๊. ๊ค๊โ๊ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ค ๊๊๊, ๊ค ๊ ๊๊๊คโ๊ ๊๊๊ช๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊คโ๊ธ ๊ ๊๊๊ช๊ธ.โย ย
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ช๊ธ?โ
Y/n nod softly, she held back the want to attack the man who held onto Kheli as Kheli groaned in pain. The scared man turned to the blonde and sent a chilled look to him. The blonde dropped Kheli to the ground and stood straight. Kheli rubbed his neck, crescent moon marks from the blonde nails were dug into his skin.
Y/n held her hand out for him but Kheli just stood. He stood behind her, not taking her hand. Y/n furrowed a brow but the sound of the scared man clearing his throat brought her attention back to him.
The scared man moved towards Y/n and in instinct she backed up, her group followed suit. The scared man watched them with curious eyes. They moved in sync, like they were all intoned to the same brain. They stood tall even though they were surrounded on all sides by strangers.
Slowly the scared man knelt down to Y/nโs height. Surprisingly he was still a bit taller than her. He stared at Y/n, it was obvious to him she was the leader. The alpha of this small pack of children.
โ๊ค ๊๊ฃ๊ฆ๊๊ฆ๊ ๊ค๊ด๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊ช๊ค๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ค๊๊ธ. ๊ค ๊ญ๊๊๊ ๊๊๊คโ๊ ๊ค๊ต๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊๊๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ ๊๊๊ช ๊๊?โ He stared but Y/n could hear the slight accusatory tone. Y/n tilted her head, making it seem as though she was trying to find the right direction of his voice.
๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊ย ย were known for being able to walk in snow, keeping silent. Y/n studied the scared manโs face. He had a dark beard, peppered with white. His hair was longer than the others, he was in charge. Only ๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊ whoโd achieved officer status could grow a beard.
โ๊ค ๊ ๊๊๊ช๊ธ ๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ค๊๊ฃ.โ
The scared manโs eyes look to the blonde. His face was the youngest, he seemed a bit worried.
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊โ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ด๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊ฆ๊ช๊ ๊ค๊ด๊ ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊, ๊ ๊โ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ช ๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊.โ The scared man said. Y/n nodded softly. Ville the blonde that had held Kheli rolled his eyes slightly. A low growl came from the scared manโs side. A large white wolf growled softly as it walked near children.ย
They all stifled back, the boys cowering in fear when the ๊ค๊๊๊ค๊๊๊ neared them. The ๊ค๊๊๊ค๊๊๊ growled at Kheli and Y/n moved in front of him. The ๊ค๊๊๊ค๊๊๊ stopped its growling and tilted her head. Her ivory fur blowed slightly in the breeze. The scared man gasped softly as the ๊ค๊๊๊ค๊๊๊ nuzzled itself into Y/nโs stomach.ย
โ๊ต๊๊ญ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊.โ He called out, with a small whine Maja his ๊ค๊๊๊ค๊๊๊ moved back to him. His scared hand gently pet through her ivory fur. Y/n kept her gaze on the wolf.
She was much larger than any wolf sheโd ever seen. She was large with powerful legs and a shaggy tail. Her eyes were crimson and had a ring of brown in the center.ย
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ฃ๊๊๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊๊๊ค๊ ๊๊๊ ๊, ๊ ๊ฆ๊ ?โ He questioned. Y/n bit back a remark and kept her friends behind her.
โ๊ต๊ฉ ๊ฃ๊๊ช๊๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊ญ๊๊ช๊ธ๊๊ค.โ Y/n stated softly. It wasnโt a pure lie. Either her mother or her father was fjerdan. He gave her a small nod and through her sight she saw a woman with blonde hair, and bright blue eyes.
The woman placed a soft hand on his shoulder. Her hair in a braided crown and a thick cape lined with fur is around her.
โ๊ ๊๊๊๊๊ด?โ The women asks but the scared man, now known as Gustav ignored her. His gaze was strictly on Y/n.
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊๊ช๊ค๊๊ค๊ธ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ญ๊๊ช๊ธ๊๊ค, ๊ค ๊๊๊ค ๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊. ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ฉ ๊ค๊ ๊๊๊๊ค, ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ฉ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ฆ๊ ๊ช๊๊ด๊๊๊ค, ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ฆ๊๊ ๊๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊ฆ๊ต ๊ค๊ฆ๊ด๊ฉ๊ค ๊ด๊๊ต.โ He announced. Y/n kept herself firmly in between her friends and the ๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊.ย
โ๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ค๊๊ค๊๊๊๊ธ ๊ต๊๊ค๊ฉ ๊ธ๊ค๊๊๊๊ช๊๊ค๊ ๊ฃ๊๊ฆ๊ฃ๊๊. ๊๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊๊คโ๊ ๊ญ๊๊๊ ๊๊ญ๊๊ช๊ธ๊๊คโ๊.โ Y/n admitted. Maja howled and a few other wolves howled back. The women came closer but Gustav held a protective hand in front of her.
Y/n raised a brow, was he โฆ. Afraid. Isla clutched on to Nikoโs arm as Zan and Kheli stood around her. The winds whipped around blowing cold air at Y/n. A shiver erupted through her skin uncovered due to giving her cloak to Isla.
The women gently pushed aside Gustavโs arm and she knelt in front of Y/n. She stared into her eyes and examined her face. Her hands were soft like rose petals, and Y/n flinched back when her hands gently held her face.
โ๊ฃ๊ฆ๊ฆ๊ช ๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊, ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊โ๊ด๊ ๊๊๊๊ค ๊๊๊ฆ๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊ฆ๊ค๊ .โ She mumbled softly. Y/n didnโt understand this strange feeling in her chest as this woman held her face.ย
โ๊ค๊ฆ๊ช๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊๊ด๊๊ช ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊โ๊ช๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊, ๊๊๊ฆ๊ฃ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ค๊.โ Gustav growled but the woman Nora. Nora glared back at him and gently wrapped her cloak around Y/n. Nora looked back at the other children with a motherly gaze. She couldnโt help but notice how close they seemed.
They all huddled together, forming a small diamond shape. Y/n in the front, Kheli and Niko at her sides, Isla directly behind Y/n and Zan in the back. The boys looked ready to pounce. Nora has seen how they followed Y/nโs movements. Where she moved they moved, when she so much and moved a finger they copped it.
Nora reached her hand for Y/n to take. Y/n moved back in confusion. She seemed kind,ย ย it could be a lie. She could be trying to trap them, hurt them. Y/n wouldnโt let that happen.ย
โ๊๊๊๊ ๊ต๊ฉ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ, ๊ฃ๊๊๊๊๊.โ Nora sighed reaching g her hand further out. Y/n kept herself firmly between this woman and her people.
โ๊ ๊ ๊ฉ?โ
Nora furrowed a brow but kept her hand out. Gustav stared at his wife in confusion, he kept Maja ready to pounce. The other ๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊ watched there leaders wife with a curious expression. Her kindness knew no bounds, but to extend that the strangers.
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ธ, ๊๊ฆ ๊ค ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ด๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊ต๊๊ . ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ ๊ช๊ฉ, ๊๊ฆ ๊ค ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊๊๊๊ธ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊. ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ช๊๊๊ฉ, ๊๊ฆ ๊ค ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ด๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ธ๊ช๊ค๊ค๊. ๊๊ฆ ๊๊๊๊ ๊ต๊ฉ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ.โ Nora voices her tone sweeter than any honey the group had ever tasted.
Y/n felt a warmth in her body sheโd never felt before. Itโs was fuzzy, like sitting at just the right place next to a fire. After a moment Y/n took Noraโs hand. Noraโs smile brightened and she lead the group through the crowds of people. Gustav went to stop his wife but instead he watched.
The crowds parted for Nora like she was royalty. The crowds stared down at the children with a mix of curiosity and disprove. A few children younger, older, and around their age stared at them till their parents pushed them back.ย
Gustav looked over at Ville and followed his gaze. It was set on Y/n with a curious expression. Gustav stood next to him in a matter of minutes.
โI want you to watch over those children, especially that girl.โ Gustav whispered while looking at Y/n. โSomething is off about these children.โ
With a small nod from Ville Gustav walked toward his wife, Maja followed closely behind. Ville stared at them as the crowds gathered as each child left his view.
Y/n kept her grip firmly in Noraโs. This women was kind, too kind. That would be her fault, her kindness to these children. They were no ordinary children. They were Helios in training, and they had a job to do.
Snow flurried down from the grey sky as Y/n left the home of Gustav and Nora. For the last two weeks her and her fellow trainees were staying with the leader of this Fjerdan town and his wife. Gustav agreed that the children could stay as long as they lived in the attic and help around.
So there Y/n was, holding a basket, and a small huddle of thin cookies for her to snack on. Y/n journeyed through the town towards the town center. The children playing stopped and stared at her. Their eyes filling nothing but distrust.
Another pair of eyes followed her. Villeโs pale eyes followed her as she walked and snacked. Y/n felt his gaze but didnโt turn to look at him. Ville followed behind her as she walked. Y/n stopped and turned, Ville stumbled slightly and glared down at her.
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ค๊ฆ๊ , ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ช๊๊๊๊๊ฉ ๊๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊๊ฆ๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ฃ๊๊ฆ๊ฃ๊๊. ๊ค ๊๊๊ค ๊ ๊๊๊ช ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊.โ Y/n answered as she bit into the cookie. Ville grumbled and began to walk next to her. Y/n rolled her eyes as she held tightly onto her basket. She handed Ville one of the cookies, no words were exchanged.
โ๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊โ๊ช๊ ๊ธ๊ฆ๊ค๊ค๊ ?โ Ville questioned as the pair weaved their way through people. Y/n picked up spices and Ville would add things to her basket.ย
โ๊ ๊๊๊๊๊ด ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊๊ด๊ค๊ค๊ ๊๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ช๊ค๊๊ค๊ธ๊ ๊ฆ๊ด๊๊ช ๊๊๊๊๊ช. ๊ค๊ฆ๊ช๊ ๊๊๊ค๊ ๊ต๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ ๊ช๊๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊ ๊๊ช. ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊๊ด๊๊ช ๊ ๊๊๊๊๊ด ๊ ๊๊ค๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊โ๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ฆ๊.โ Y/n answered as she paid the stall owner. Ville nodded softly, he was going on the hunt with the others.ย
Y/n picked up some bad grain and Ville sighed. He took the grain from her hand and handed her a better bag. Y/n thanked him silently as she paid with the krydda.ย
Villeโs eyes trailed after Y/n wherever she went. Y/nโa braided hair flowed in the cool breeze. Nora had been doing Y/n and Islaโs hair for the past two weeks. It was customary for unmarried women.ย
As they began to walk back towards Gustavโs home Y/n hummed softly. Ville listened intently as the soft sound entered his ears. From afar Gustav ready Maja to hunt, a few other men with him. Gustav watched as Ville brought Y/n home with an almost knowing gaze.
Ville opened the door and allowed Y/n inside. Gustav called him and Ville turned to leave. Ville began to walk down the snow covered path glancing back at the closed door of the home.ย
โ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊ ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊, ๊๊ ๊ ๊ฐ๊๊ค๊๊๊๊ช ๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊ค๊ฆ๊ช๊, ๊๊ ๊ ๊ฐ๊๊ค๊๊๊๊ช ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊๊๊.โ Gustav cheered with a right smile and a pat on Villeโs back. Ville flinched slightly at the roughness of Gustav. As the other men went into the woods, Gustav grabbed Villeโs thick cloak.
โ๊ค๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ ๊๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ช, ๊ช๊๊ต๊๊ต๊๊๊ช ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ค๊๊๊ธ ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ฃ๊๊ช๊ฆ๊ค๊.โ Gustav growled softly, letting go of Ville. Ville stuttered over his words. No, he didnโt want Y/n, she was a stranger. She was odd, and her friends brought distrust into his home. Gustav merely watched Villeโs inner workings as he guided Maja into the wood.
Y/n brought the basket full of spices, grain and a few other things into the kitchen. Isla and Nora moved around cooking together. Nora kept Isla away from the knives and stove thinking it too dangerous for a girl who couldnโt see or speak. Nora smiled brightly as Y/n brought her the basket.ย
Nora had Y/n begin to make some bread. The boys were up in the attic planning out how to steal the ring. Turns out Gustav had it, but it was kept in his bedroom. Nora had mentioned it in a previous conversation. Y/n had also seen it once.
Time flew by as the two girls and older women worked in the kitchen. Gustav soon returned with a kill, a deer. Gustav dressed and cleaned it then left it to Nora. Gustav gave Nora a quick kiss on her forehead and pull Y/n aside. Y/n furrowed her brow as Gustav guided Y/n away.ย
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊ค๊๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ฃ ๊๊ช๊ฆ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊ธ๊ค๊ค๊ค๊๊ช.โ Y/n furrowed her brow in confusion. She always helped with dinner.
โ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ ๊๊ฉ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ฃ.โย
Gustav stared down at her with a firm face. He fixed up her hair quickly, adjusting her braid. Some of men entered into the house and Gustav pulled a few strands of Y/nโs hair out of the braid.ย
Gustav stared down at Y/nโs s/c skin, it shined softly. Y/n, Isla, Niko, Kheli, and Zan were everything his wife wanted. Gustav had been unable to gift Nora children, so he couldnโt refuse to let this orphans go. Nora has quickly grown attached, while Gustav was only now growing attached to Y/n.
The others were fine but there was something off with how Y/n carried herself. She seemed so sure of herself, yet seemed so scared. The way sheโd always push her friends behind her, even the boys. It shocked him that such a small girl was so protective.
โ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊, ๊๊ ๊๊ฉโ๊ด๊ ๊๊ช๊ช๊ค๊ด๊๊ธ.โ Gustav murmured as he guided Y/n back to the kitchen. Ville looked away from his conversation with his friend and watched as Y/n walk into the kitchen with Gustav.
Nora handed Y/n some wine and a tray to carry it. Nora kept Isla in the kitchen to help her cook. Y/n walked around the table with Gustavโs company. Sheโd grab a cup filled with it and wait till the man would grab it.ย
The first couple grabbed the cup without much issue. Villeโs hand gently grazed Y/nโs as he took a the cup. Gustav gripped his cup in his iron grip. As Y/n held the filled cup out for Markus to take as he spoke. Markus stared up at Y/n with a raised brow.
The whole table stopped as they stared at Y/n. Y/n motioned for him to take the cup from her. A low growl came from Maja as she rested under the table by Gustav. Another reason Gustav was so enamored by Y/nโs character was Maja.
Maja was the deadliest ๊ค๊๊๊ค๊๊๊ of her litter, yet she was so docile when it came to Y/n. Instantly Maja connected to Y/nโs side, she seemed second only to himself.ย ย When Y/n sighed softly and motioned to the cup again.ย
โ๊๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ฃ.โ Y/n asserted sternly. Her tone was abrasive and annoyed. Markus glared up at her as the boys walked down the stairs and moved to the table.ย
Niko shot a look around the table then his gaze finally landed Y/nโs. Kheli moved to the kitchen next to Isla and helped her with stuff Y/n couldnโt see. Zan leaned against the wall and unreadable expression on his face.ย
Markus still made no move to take the cup, he was so used to it being placed in his hand. Gustav moved his gaze to Y/n and then to Niko. Maja sat upright and Noraโs gaze moved to the quiet table.
โ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ค๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊๊๊ ๊ต๊๊ช๊๊๊, ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ฃ.โ Gustav voiced with a small smile. Markus nodded softly taking the cup, the look on his face seemed to be tight. Gustav allowed the tight smile on his own face, Y/nโs voice always seems to bring some frustration to others but to him it brought amusement.ย
โ๊ค ๊๊ฆ๊ช๊ ๊๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊๊ ๊ค๊๊ธ๊ช๊๊ค ๊๊ช๊ โฆ.. ๊ธ๊ค๊๊๊๊ช๊๊ค๊.โ Markus politely sneered in a way Y/n thought only she saw.ย ย Nora stopped chopping her vegetables and snapped her head up. Kheli and Isla shared a quick look as Zan moved his head up. Niko rolled his shoulders his white eyes seeming to go sharp.ย
Gustav hummed in response and they all raised there glasses in a quick salute to each other. As the dinner continues Y/n goes around bringing food, filling there cups, clearing some finished plates. The others watch as Niko helped Y/n around, Markus keeping his gaze on the pair.ย
โ๊ค๊ค๊๊ฆ ๊ ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ธ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊?โ Markus questioned rang threw for a moment. Zan rubbed his gloved left hand, it was missing a chunk of flesh and scared over, a small courtesy of Y/n biting it out. Many times since there friendship began Y/n had apologized over his ruined hand, Zan would merely wave her off with a smile.ย
Niko looked to Y/n unable to answer. His fjerdan was no where near as proficient as Y/nโs. Y/n did most of the speaking now, sheโd give them all lessons but fjerdan was a hard language to learn.ย
โ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ช๊๊๊๊ค.โ Y/n answered taking a plate and giving the deer bones to Maja.ย
โ๊๊ ๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ ๊๊ช๊?โย
Y/n knew he meant the other boys, Markus didnโt show much interest in the girls. The boys all felt the air go cold, Nora went to place another log in the fire.ย
โ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊๊ต๊.โ Y/nโs tone was becoming questionable. Ville stared at Y/n with an uncertain look, he knew where this conversation was moving. Ville had not really understanding of just how close Y/n was with her friends, how could he. After all Y/n and the others were lying about almost everything, and it came so naturally.
โ๊ ๊๊๊๊๊ด ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊๊๊ธ ๊๊ช๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ฉ๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ผ๊ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊๊. ๊๊ ๊๊ฉ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ต๊ฆ๊ช๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ค ๊ฆ๊๊ธ ๊๊ค๊ฆ๊๊ ๊ .โ Markus began. Y/n ignored the conversation from then on, choosing to help Nora. As the dinner concluded Ville stared at Y/n the entire time. Gustav watched his gaze as Y/n cleared and cleaned with Isla.ย
Markus watched Isla move around swiftly with a kind smile on her face. Markusโs gaze ran over Isla is a way that made her friends growl internally. It was not secret all of them were dangerously protective of Isla, but none more so then Y/n.ย
A shared glance between them was all it took to decide Markusโs fate. When the time for the group to leave with the Sol ring Markus would die.ย
Maybe weโre being a bit extreme, but I donโt really care.
Y/n shuddered at her own thoughts. Sometimes she feared herself, her fury, her anger, herโฆ.. darkness. It was too late to get rid of her thoughts of smashing Markusโs head due to the way he was staring at Isla.ย
Oh well, not like his wife or children will miss him.
Y/n picked at her nails as Niko and Kheli sat awake with her in the darkness of the attic. Isla was sprawled against Y/nโs lap, Y/nโs hands threading through the small braids she had braided into one large braid. Zan was asleep on his make shift bed Nora and Gustav had made.ย
They were comfortable enough but Y/n preferred the floor near Islaโs bed. It brought her a sense of comfort to know if something went wrong nothing could stop her from reaching Isla. Y/n tilted her head back against the plush of the bed as Kheli and Niko weโre across from her.ย
After the dinner the group had discussed how they could speed this plan up. The plan was get close to Gustav, and steal the ring. Simple enough but they were getting too close. Isla was content with cooking in the kitchens with Isla, Y/n was growing used to Villeโs and Gustavโs company. The boys were struggling with the fact so many pretty girls were interested in them.
The ring was kept in Gustavโs and Noraโs room, locked away. Y/n alone caught a glimpse of it in passing when Gustav was showing it to Ville, the reason unknown. Y/n hummed softly, the simple tune that sheโd sung many times. Nikoโs gaze was one Y/nโs shadowy figure, he could barley make out her hazy shape. Through his cloudy eyes and at night his sight was weak.ย
Kheli stared out the slightly open window, the moonlight shining perfectly down on Y/n. His sight was hazed as well but Y/nโs figure was easily visible due to the softly shimmer of her skin. Kheli couldnโt explain it, but in the moonlight or under the stars Y/n shinned oh so softly.

Y/nโs soft melody echoed through the attic. The sound traveled through the window and around the quiet village. Any who were left awake were lulled to sleep by the song in the unfamiliar language. Niko closed his eyes and pulled his blanket over himself.ย
"ษช แดแด แด แด แดแดษขสแดแดส แด๊ฐ แด สแดสแด ,

Kheli laid against the cold ground and began to sleep soundly. Islaโs soft breath against Y/nโs legs reminded her of the life still in her body. Y/n looked around the attic as she hummed the melody. She gaze went from each other to the next.ย

As Y/n finished her tune she felt tired herself. She sighed softly and pulled a small object out from her pocket. It was a hairpin with a strangely sharp edge. There was a rose at its side, a gift from Isla. Y/n poked herself over and over again with the pin to keep herself awake.
She couldnโt sleep, she just couldnโt. She was in charge, it was her job to ensure the safety of her friends. As her gaze moved about the room, it remained on Zanโs sleeping figure. Even through her sight, even though it was dark she could see him.
There was just something off about Zan, a gut feeling Y/n got whenever she caught his gaze. Y/n didnโt understand how he could forgive her for his hand. Y/n would admit she wished she hadnโt done it. In her fury she lost control of herself.ย
The healers at the sanctuary tried there best to fix his hand. His hand still works just fine, he was scared though. Adam was even stranger, but he seemed so obsessed. Heโd follow Y/n around at times sheโd wish heโd leave her alone. Her guilt stopped her from really telling him to leave her alone.ย
Her eyes begin to drop, and she forced the pin into her skin. She bit her lip tasting the metallic of her blood. Isla stirred in her lap for a moment. Y/n halted her movements and then Isla nuzzled her head into Y/nโs stomach. Her senses were blurring and she could faintly feel the dripping of blood from her cuts.
Y/n pulled the pin out and placed it into her pocket. Her black dress was scratchy on her skin but the buzz that surrounded her head caused her to ignore it. As she allowed her eyes to drop, darkness took over her.

Y/n hid behind a large oak tree as snow fell down around her. A crossbow was placed in her hands as a wild boar came into view. She raised her crossbow with a fumble.
Gotta make it look like over never used one of these before
โ๊ธ๊ฆ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊ฆ๊ ๊ญ๊๊๊ ๊ฉ๊๊.โ Gustav mutters softly. Y/n internally groaned as she looked down. Crouching in the snow behind a bush was Gustav and Ville. The others all brought their sons, but Gustav brought Y/n. He would have brought Niko, Kheli, or Zan but they had all come down with a sickness.
It was strange to him that Isla and Y/n were perfectly fine, but he didnโt give it do much though. Ville looked over at Gustav in confusion.
โ๊ค ๊ธ๊ฆ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ๊๊ช๊๊๊๊ค๊ธ, ๊ค๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊ฆ๊๊ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ ๊โ๊๊ ๊๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ช.โ Y/n nodded at Villeโs words. She may have made it look like she was struggling but she could still kill the boar. Gustav sent a quick glare to the young ones around him.ย
Ville promptly turned his head back to the boar while Y/n returned the glare. Gustav chuckled softly at the threatening look Y/n gave him. For a child who could not see, she was quite frightening. When Y/n turned back, the boar was gone.
โ๊ช๊๊ต๊ค๊ค๊ธ ๊ต๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ค๊ค ๊ ๊ ๊ฉ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊๊๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ธ ๊ฉ/๊ค ๊ ๊๊ช๊ฆ๊๊๊๊ฆ๊ ?โ Y/nโs head snapped towards the two men as they stood. Gustav ignored Villeโs question as he walked towards the boar tracks. Ville placed his hand in the small of Y/nโs back and lead her towards Gustav.ย
Y/n wished she could slap his hand away but made no such move. Ville attempted to take the crossbow but Y/n pressed it against his side.ย
โ๊ค ๊ต๊๊ฉ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊๊๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊๊, ๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ต๊ ๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ค ๊ฃ๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ช๊ค๊ ๊ ๊๊ช ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊๊๊ธ๊๊ฉ ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊.โ
Ville shivered at her words and backed away. Y/n smirked triumphantly as Gustav stood. He gently brought Y/n to the ground and placed her hands above the tracks.
โ๊ค๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊๊ธ๊ช๊๊ค ๊ ๊ฆ๊๊๊ธ ๊๊๊ฆ๊ฃ ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊ ๊ต๊ฆ๊ต๊๊ค๊โฆ. ๊ฉ/๊ค ๊๊๊๊ ๊ต๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ฉ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ช ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ฆ๊ค๊ค๊ .โ Gustav pondered. Ville scoffed as he began to speak, Y/n merely laid her hand into the tracks.
โ๊ ๊๊๊๊๊ด ๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ช๊, ๊ค ๊ธ๊ฆ๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ด๊๊ค ๊๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊ฆ๊ฆ๊โฆโ Villeโs words trailed away as Y/n pointed east towards the lake. Gustav nodded in approval and continued his path. Y/n shot a proud smile to Ville and she crossed her arms gently.
Ville glared softly down at her and he began to lead her. His mind raced with confusion. Y/n was so different from all the girls in the village. She wasnโt timid or so docile. She was rougher and so violent. None of the other girls could hunt, none of the other girls were so peculiar to him.
As the boar came back into view Y/n knelt down in the snow a bit further away from the pair. She took in a deep inhale and allowed herself to feel the buzz of the space surrounding her.
She felt the tress seasoning in the cold breeze, the breathing of Ville, the heartbeat of Gustav. Every vibration of life around her, she focused on. The boar began to move and Y/n lost her focus as Ville poked her leg.
โ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊ธ๊๊ต๊๊ธ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ !โย
Y/n shot a vicious glance to Ville as she set the cross bow down. When she looked up the boar was gone. Y/n stood and walked to the area it had just been in. Placing her hand down and feeling the mud in between her hands brought a small comfort.
The meadow would get so muddy in the spring, Y/n would be able to pull the flowers right from the roots. She brought her muddy hand to her nose, deeply inhaling the scent of the ground bellow her. Ville watched her so intently that Gustav could practically feel the radiation of his gaze.ย
A loud squeal bombarded the area as Y/n hit the ground. Y/n screamed at the boar began to attack her, its trotters hitting against her shoulders. Y/n pushed her arms against it as itโs ripped off. A haze enveloped her as she was pulled into a pair of rough and muscular arms.ย
As her eyes opened their Ville stood drenched in blood spats. The boar a few feet away, the creature twitched as Ville shot his dagger into the boar. Gustavโs arms were tightly around her, his grip so gently in comparison to the feeling of the boar on her a moment ago.ย
As the pair met each others eyes the other froze. On Villeโs end he peered into those alluring white eyes the prickled with tears. Her eyes of the snow that he lived in, trained in, breathed in. Her faced was dirty, flushed and had gone pale. Her hunting cloths, a pair of Nikoโs pants and one of Gustavโs thick shirts were torn in a few places. Ville couldnโt help but find it strange such a quick encounter could cause such havoc upon her.ย
Y/nโs sight was hazed in the strangest way. As she stared at Ville she could make out his figure, but his features didnโt stand out. The blood he was soaked in did. Itโs bright crimson color pierced her sight, the droplets forming on the curve of his face. As she was brought to her feet she stumbled into him. The still warm blood getting on her cloths.ย
Y/n grasped onto Ville and Gustavโs froze. He stared at the pair, then ordered that Ville watch over Y/n so he could secure the boar. Ville went away from the dead boar a dazed look on his face as he held Y/n.
The ground was cold and wet against Villes bottom, but it was a small price to pay to keep Y/n off the ground and in his lap. Y/n kept her eyes closed as she leaned into him, she took in his scent for a moment. Ville looked around then saw it.
He dug out his knife and cut into the ground, avoiding the roots. He pulled it up covered in mud and placed it into Y/nโs palms. Y/n lazily drew her fingertips over the petals of the flower. There was a thin layer of frost over the flower, the rose. Ville moved her h/c hair out of her face, his calloused hands brushing against her skin.ย
A winter roseโฆ. Its roots covered in dirt in her hands. Y/n slowly lifted her gaze to his with a slight tremble. Her lip wobbled as the pain set in, an uncontrollable shiver enveloping her body. Villeโs warm hand against her kept her grounded.ย
Her stomach dropped as his thumb brushed away a stray tear. This feeling in her stomach was pounding inside of her. No it couldnโt be this. This was something sheโd only ever read about in the storybooks. The way his hand was so firmly pressed against her cheekโฆ..
Y/n hadnโt realized that they were moving and out of the forest till her back hit the couch in Gustavโs sitting area. Villeโs cape was warm and tucked around her. She felt Islaโs warm hand in hers, Nikoโs hands on her shoulders, and the rose still clutched in her hands.
The adults in the room spoke in hushed voices, the topic Y/n didnโt care to translate. Isla tapped on her hand urgently as the other two boys watched.ย
โWe have to do it now, we canโt wait any longer.โ
Y/nโs hushed tone was fearful, something the others werenโt used to. Isla stared at Niko, who stared at Zan, who stared at Kheli, who was staring at Y/n.
โOne week from today is the village celebration for Villeโs proof of his worthiness today. Thatโs when we strike.โ
The group nodded softly, no one dared to object.
A large bonfire crackled as girls and women danced out the fire. The men drank and laughed as Y/n observed them. Isla had caught the boys sickness and Nora stayed home to watch them.
The moon danced above them as Y/n sat next to Villeโs mother as the women talked her ear off about topics she had no idea why she was talking to her about. She was speaking about the best ways to give birth, care for a sick baby, cooking tips, and sewing tips.ย
Y/n simply nodded along as other women joined into the conversation. They began discussing a wedding and venues. Y/n tuned them out as her brain thought back to when Egon found her.
Alina, Y/n and Mal sat in the meadow as Y/n braided Alinaโs ebony locks. Mal laid on the ground in front of the sisters with his eyes closed. Figures began to approach from the tree-line. Y/n stared at them in confusion.
The grisha testers had come a few weeks ago, Y/n wasnโt sure who these strangers were. They werenโt dressed in keftaโs but armor in colors that fades from bronze to golden. Y/n stood up quickly as they approached, keeping her body in front of her sister and Mal.
The soldiers tilted their head to the side at Y/n and narrowed their eyes on Alina. The tallest man in a golden armor motioned his hand forward. The others grabbed Y/n quickly and then pulled Mal off the floor.ย
The tallest man stalked towards Alina as Y/n thrashed in the grip of the two warriors. The gently grabbed Alinaโs chin as she quivered.
โLina! Get off her!โ Y/n shouted as she tried to pull herself away. Mal stood frozen in fear as Y/n continued to push back. The warriors grip loosened and Y/n took a dagger from his side. Y/n ran at the man holding Alinaโs chin and sliced at his hand, pulling Alina behind herself.
The man gasped as he pulled back, the dagger raised in the air. The man stared down at her with a small smile.ย
โLet him go!โ
Mal stumbled forward as the man let him go. Y/n pulled him behind her as pair quivered in fear. Y/n stared up at him with unwavering hatred in her eyes. The dagger didnโt seem to scare him, merely excited him.
He laughedโฆ?
He bellowed with each passing moment his laugh grew. The other armored men shared a smile as they relaxed.
โWhat is your name girl?โ He asked Y/n as he kneeled down. Y/n trailed the dagger after him as he knelt in front of her. Y/n didnโt answer as she heard Alina sniffle.
โCan you not speak?โ He tilted his head in mockery.
โI know better than to give my name to a stranger.โ Y/n snapped. He held an amused look as she spoke. He turned his gaze to the pair hiding behind Y/n.
โAnd you two?โ
โA..Alina Starkov.โ
โMalyen Orstsev.โ
Y/n groaned in disbelief as they told their names. The man turned back to Y/n, his face holding not a hint of what he wanted. With a defeated sigh Y/n mumbled.
โY/n Starkov.โ
His eyes piped up in intrigue. He looked between Alina and Y/n for a while.ย
โSisters?โ He pondered for a moment. โYou donโt look related.โ
Y/nโs glare deepened, her jaw tightened. She huffed softly.
โDoes that really matter?โ Y/n pondered. He shook his head and looked back at his people for a moment.ย
โI am Egon Waldow, Lord Helios.โ
Y/n blinked a few times and looked back at Alina. She stared back at her in confusion. Mal furrowed his brow.
โYouโre what?โ
Egon laughed softly as he stared down at her. He gentle grasped her hand that held the dagger.ย
โWeโve come for your sister.โ Y/n froze, and quickly jerked away. She pulled both Alina and Mal further behind herself.
โYou canโt have her!โ
โUnfortunately we have to take someon- Take me!โ Egon raised a brow at her request. He stared down at Y/n with a slightly smile. She wasnโt meek or skittish like her sister. She stood tall, her grip tight around the dagger as he held it.
โNo you canโt go! Ana Kuya wonโt allow you to leave.โ Alina tried to reason as tears streamed down her face. For some reason Y/n knew she would be allowed to go. This vibration around Egom seemed familiar, liked theyโd met before.
โYour caretaker wonโt stop us.โ His voice held no uncertainty. Y/n slowly bit her lip nervously as she lowered the dagger. Her fate was now sealed.
Guilt prickled at her brain,ย ย this was wrong on so many levels. They had lied and weaseled their way into these peopleโs lives. They had made bonds that they would be breaking.ย
โ๊ฉ/๊ค? ๊๊ช๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฃ๊๊ฉ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊๊๊๊๊ค๊๊ค๊ฆ๊ค?โ Y/n looked over at Villeโs mother in confusion. The absent look on her face causing the older women to glare.
โ๊ค ๊๊๊๊๊ธ ๊ค๊ ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ด๊๊ค ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ค๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊?โ The older women amused. Her brows turned, raising her chin.
โ๊ ๊ ๊๊?โ
โ๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ค๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ช๊๊ค๊ค๊ ? ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ด๊๊ค ๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฉ๊๊?โ Y/n felt the blood in her veins freeze. Her heart sped up to an unmatchable pace.ย Courting gift?ย She pondered softly as she began to nimble at her bottom lip.
โ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊ ๊ค๊๊คโ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ช๊๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ต๊.โ She tried to reason.ย
The women all laughed at the girl with a smile. Villeโs mother sent the girl a look she was thankful she couldnโt see.ย
โ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊๊๊ค ๊๊ฆ๊๊ช๊๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊. ๊ ๊โ๊ ๊๊๊๊ค ๊ธ๊ค๊ค๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊, ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊๊๊ฆ๊ช๊๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฃ๊๊๊๊๊, ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊๊๊ธ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ค๊๊๊ช ๊ช๊ฆ๊๊. ๊๊๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊๊ธ ๊ธ๊ฆ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ด๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ค๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊.โ
Y/n never thought sheโd be so happy to feel Villeโs hands on her shoulder as the world buzzed around her. Whatever words were said she didnโt hear. Her legs began to move and she felt Villeโs hands on her waist.
โ๊ฉ/๊ค?โ
โ๊ฉ๊๊?โ The quiver in her voice brought a frown to Villeโs face.ย
โ๊ค ๊๊๊๊๊ธ ๊ค๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ธ๊๊ค๊๊?โ Y/n idled nodded her head as music played. As they slowly began to dance, their steps messy and twisted Ville held a smile on his face. Her cloudy eyes stared up at him, her hair was only partially braided. A braid bun at the top while all rest of her h/c h/t locks were free.ย
Ville couldnโt help but allow his smile to reach his ears, her hair was prefect in every way. The way the raging fire illuminated all her features.ย
ย โ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ช๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ฆ ๊๊๊ค๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊๊๊, ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ธ๊๊ค๊๊ ๊๊๊๊๊๊ค๊๊๊๊๊ฉ.โ Ville complemented. Y/n smiled softly as she felt her stomach plunge.
โ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ฉ ๊ ๊ ๊ฆ ๊๊๊ค ๊๊๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ช๊๊๊ ๊๊ช ๊๊ค๊๊ฆ๊ฆ๊ช๊ธ๊ค๊ค๊๊๊๊ธ.โ Villeโs laughter boomed as he spun her. Her thick dress twirling around, the fade of grey looked lovely on her. Her skin held a sweet glow to it that Ville had convinced was a trick of the light.ย
โ๊๊๊ ๊๊ฉ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊๊ ๊ฆ๊ค๊ ๊๊ช๊๊คโ๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊?โ Y/n slowly her steps as they pair left the dance floor. Gustav watched the pair with a small smile. The village was allowing them to break a few of the courting rule, after all Gustav wasnโt interfering.ย
The smell of the cooked boar invaded Y/nโs senses and she gulped softly. She could practically feel her hands covered in dirt, trying to keep the thing from falling on her.ย
โ๊ค ๊๊ฆ๊๊๊ธ ๊๊๊๊ช ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ฃ๊๊ช๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ค ๊ ๊๊ค๊๊๊ธ.โ Y/n uttered softly. Ville shock his head as he helped her moved over a branch. He was leading her away from the celebration, into the woods around the village. Slowly the pair approached a small clearing.ย
โ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊? ๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ธ๊ฆ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊?โ Ville stopped in front of her. He clutched her hands gently, his hard palm again her slightly calloused hands.
โ๊ฉ/๊ค ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊ฉ ๊๊๊ช ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊๊ช๊๊ค๊ ๊๊๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ช๊ ๊คโ๊ด๊ ๊๊ด๊๊ช ๊ต๊๊. ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊ช๊๊ด๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ช๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊. ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฃ๊ช๊ฆ๊๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊๊๊๊๊ธ ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊๊ค๊ค๊ ๊๊๊ช๊๊ค๊ธ ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊คโฆโ Y/n shot her hand to his lips. Fear ate at her insides, like a ravenous beast.ย
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ธ๊ฆ๊คโ๊ ๊๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊โ๊ช๊ ๊๊๊ฉ๊ค๊ค๊ , ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊ธ๊๊ฉ ๊๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ต๊.โ Ville gently removed her hand and placed his own into his pocket. He pulled out a item covered by a cloth with an engraved wolf.
โ๊ค ๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ค ๊๊ฆ๊ด๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊.โ He placed the gift into her hands, with hands that shock like an earthquake she moved over the cloth. In her hands laid the most beautiful comb sheโd ever imagined. Her sight allowed her to see the comb as she ran her fingers over it. It had an arch at each end with simple blue stones placed onto it.ย
A tear streamed down her face as Ville took the comb and placed it in her hair. It rested so beautifully in her hair under the moonlight. The smell of smoke began to cloud there nostrils and Ville turned away from Y/n. Under her dress she gently tapped on the stone of her collar, hidden as it always was.ย
โ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊ โ๊ ๊ ๊ช๊ฆ๊ค๊ ๊ค๊ค ๊๊ ๊ ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊๊ ๊. ๊คโ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊๊๊.โ As he turned back to Y/n, a soft look on his face, the sound of metal going through flesh commenced. His breath paused for a moment as he looked down, in his stomach, a silver dagger with a star at its hilt was plunged deep into his stomach, held by Y/nโs hand.ย
His gaze traveled to her as she ripped the dagger from him. Blood pooled from his stomach as he staggered back.
โ๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ค ๊ค๊ค๊๊ด๊ค๊๊๊๊๊, ๊๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ต๊ ๊๊ต๊๊๊ ๊ฃ๊๊ช๊ ๊ฆ๊ ๊ต๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊๊๊คโ๊. ๊ค ๊ช๊๊ ๊ช๊๊๊๊๊ธ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊ต๊ฆ๊ช๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ค ๊ค ๊๊ฆ๊๊๊ธโ๊ด๊ ๊๊ด๊๊ช ๊ค๊ต๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊๊ธ ๊ค ๊ ๊ฆ๊๊๊ธ. ๊ค ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ฆ๊๊๊ธ ๊๊ ๊๊๊๊ฉ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊๊๊ฃ๊ค๊ธ ๊ช๊ค๊ค๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊๊๊๊ด๊. ๊ค ๊ธ๊ค๊ธ๊คโ๊ ๊๊ผ๊ฃ๊๊๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊๊๊ฉ, ๊ต๊๊ฉ๊๊ ๊๊๊๊ฉ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊.โ Y/n mourned softly as she caught Ville. As she laid him against herself she felt her tears dripping from her eyes.
Ville grasped onto her dress, his blood coating her. He stared up at her, his eyes wide as he watched the tears pour out of her eyes. She continued to apologize, I plead for his forgiveness as he laid against her.
โ๊-๊๊๊ฆ๊ฃ.โ Ville muttered softly. He pulled at her braided hair and undid it. He took the comb and pushed some of her hair back with it. He wanted to remember her as she was not as she was now. Not with the tears of her own betrayal in her eyes, with his crimson blood covering her. Just Y/n, the eccentric girl he fell madly for.
Ville held her face, no tears in his eyes, no pain, just his blue eyes peering into her white ones. He watched at her tears hit his face as she held him. His mind didnโt go to his death but who was with him. He held the side of her face, his blood coating her face.ย
Y/n felt as he began to go cold, his grin in her face lessened. Her tears poured down her face, angry red strikes covering her.
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ธ๊๊๊๊ช๊ด๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ต๊๊๊ ๊๊๊๊๊๊ช.โ Ville smiled as his vision began to fade. He gently pulled her down, pressing a gently kiss to her lip. Y/n tasted the iron of his lips mixed with the salt of their mixed tears.
And then Ville was gone.ย
The sound of footsteps did not cause her to move. The gently grip of Nikoโs grasp on her shoulder shock her gently. Y/n slowly turned to him, a sniffle escaping her nose.
โThe house? And Nora? And Markus?โ Y/n pondered, her voice cracking.
โBurnt to the ground, Noraโs safe. We left her outside the house. Markus is dead, theyโll never find him.โ Niko affirmed not looking down at Ville. Y/n nod softly, Nora was kind. She didnโt need to die. Markus however was doomed from the moment he stared at Isla with lust.
โThe ring?โ
The sound of jewelry being placed around her neck caused her sight to kick in. Looped around her neck was a simple gold chain with a simple band. A sun engraved into the ring.ย
โ๊ด๊ค๊๊๊? ๊ฉ/๊ค? ๊ ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊.โ Gustavโs voice cut through Y/nโs sorrows. Gustav froze as he can up in the sight. Y/n holding Ville in a pool of his own blood. Niko standing next to her. Kheli, Zan and Isla in the trees behind them.
Y/n slowly lowered Villeโs body slowly, her eyes not breaking from Gustavโs. She slowly stepped in front of her friends. Gustav walked forward Maja at his heel growling softly, baring her razor pearly teeth.
โHead towards the Sanctuary, Iโll meet you at the cliffs.โ Niko stared at her, pity in his eyes. The brittleness of her voice seemed to become apparent. Her hand slowly raised to her necklace, her armor melted over her skin in a moonlight sliver color. Gustav yelled a command at Maja and she charged forward.ย
โ๊๊ค๊!โ Y/n yelled, piercing through the silence. Maja whined softly, sitting down upon Y/nโs side. Gustav glared sharply at her as the others quickly left. Isla remained behind staring at Y/n. With a disappointment sigh she left.ย
โ๊ค ๊๊ค๊๊ ๊ค ๊ ๊๊ ๊ช๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊ ๊๊๊๊ฃ๊ค๊๊ค๊ฆ๊๊ ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊โฆ ๊๊๊ ๊ค๊๊ด๊๊ช ๊ ๊ฆ๊๊๊ธ ๊ ๊๊ด๊ ๊ค๊ต๊๊ ๊ค๊ค๊๊ธ ๊๊ ๊ค๊.โ He breathed. His eyes bore cruelly into her eyes. Y/n couldnโt speak, her words were lodged in her throat. She felt like a sildroher, stripped bare of her song.
No mate to sing in harmony with, no one to help control her song. She couldnโt breathe under his hatful gaze.ย
โ๊ค ๊ธ๊ค๊ธ๊คโ๊ ๊ ๊๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊โฆ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ค๊ ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ ๊ธ๊ค๊ธ.โ Gustav scoffed creeping towards her, his axe in hand. From her back she pulled a large sword as she began to circle Gustav.

โ๊๊๊ ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ช๊ค๊ค๊ ?โ Gustav mocked motioning his axe toward the corpse.ย
โ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ช๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ค๊ ๊๊๊๊ช๊๊ธ, ๊ค๊ ๊๊๊๊ฆ๊ค๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊ ๊๊.โ Y/n attempted to justify. The ring was made for their saint, it would help balance light. They couldnโt hunt an amplifier for them, but they could give their saint this.ย
Egon would praise her willingness to her saint. Her faith was strong and her faithfulness in him reminded him that she was his ๊๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ต๊๊ช๊ช๊. Egon could feel his soul would swell with pride whenever she successfully completed a task.
โ๊ค๊โ๊ ๊๊๊๊.โ Y/n froze, she became stiffer than the trees around. Stiffer than Ville as he laid in his crimson. Her hands shock around her sword, her feet digging into the ground.ย
โ๊ ๊ ๊๊โฆ?โ
Ville drew his axe back, sighing softly looking at Maja. She sat on the ground, her fur coated in snow. The terror rested on Y/nโs face, the color left her face quickly then ice could freeze over a lake. Gustav watched her hands tremble against her sword, the moon casting against her.ย

Egonโฆ
His armor was the only that was the pure color of the sun. Only the Lord Helios and his kin were permitted to wear the color of the Saint.ย
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊โ๊ช๊ ๊๊ฉ๊ค๊ค๊ !โ Y/n screamed her hand fumbling around her sword. Egon was the Lord Helios, heโd left his life as a ๊ธ๊ชรผ๊๊๊๊๊๊. Gustav stared at Y/n his eyes dull.ย
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฃ๊ฆ๊ฆ๊ช ๊๊ ๊ค๊๊ธ, ๊๊ฆ ๊ฆ๊๊๊ธ๊ค๊๊ค๊ ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊๊ค๊ค๊ธ.โ Gustav said. Y/n felt the tears pour down her face leaving red marks in their wake. Y/n dropped her sword.
โ๊๊ ๊๊ ๊๊ฃ!โ Y/n yelled. Her knees buckled and hits the cold frost bellow her. Her arms clutched her quaking frame. Gustav moved forward, gently running his hands through her hair. Gustav was careful to avoid the comb that Ville placed in her hair.ย
Maja wander over to the bawling Y/n nuzzling her nose into Y/nโs stomach. She shudders and she wraps her arms around Maja.ย
โ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊ฃ๊ฆ๊ฆ๊ช ๊ ๊ค๊ช๊, ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊๊ ๊ ๊ฃ๊๊๊ ๊๊ ๊ฆ ๊ต๊ฆ๊ค๊๊ ๊ ๊คโ๊ด๊ ๊๊๊ช๊๊ธ ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊. ๊๊ฆ๊ด๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊, ๊๊ค๊ธ ๊ฃ๊ช๊๊ค๊๊๊ธ ๊ธ๊ญ๊๊ ๊๊ฆ๊ช ๊๊๊ค๊ธ๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ต๊ ๊๊๊๊ ๊ ๊ ๊ค๊๊. ๊๊๊ ๊ฉ๊ฆ๊ ๊๊ช๊ ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ช๊๊๊ธ๊ฉ ๊๊ฆ ๊๊ ๊ต๊ฉ ๊ ๊ค๊๊. ๊ค๊ฆ๊ ๊ฉ๊๊.โ He uttered. He knelt down, gently taking her face into his large hands.

And just like that he was gone. Maja nudged at her side, pushing her to leave. She picked up her sword, took one last look at Villeโs corpse and was gone with the snow.
โฆโฆโฆโฆโฆโฆโฆ.
The journey back to the sanctuary was long and spend in silence. No one spoke unless they needed to. Y/nโs eyes wouldnโt cease there production of tears. Her face long since gone irritated, the ring heavy around her neck.ย
Maja walked in front of all the children, growling softly at Kheli, Niko, and Zan. By the time they reached the edge of the fold other Helios stood at the entrance awaiting them.ย
They stared down at the young children, their eyes dull. There armor glistening under the sun, there helmets make each Helios look more frightening to most children. Y/n kept her gaze down as Maja growled at each Helios. Her teeth were bared, her eyes blood eyes sharp.ย
โ๊๊ค๊ค๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ต๊๊ช๊ช๊, how did your journey fair?โ Egonโs voice quipped. Y/n raised her chin, her face full of red lines, her eyes seemed more grey then white at the moment, and her lip wobbled oh so slightly.ย
Her fingers shakes as she dropped the fake ring into Egonโs hands. His eyes moved to Maja for a moment.ย
โ๊ค๊โ๊ ๊๊ ๊ ๊๊๊๊ ๊ฆ๊ค๊, ๊ค ๊ ๊๊ด๊๊คโ๊ ๊๊ฆ๊๊ธ ๊๊ ๊ ๊ฆ๊๊ ๊๊ช.โ Egon nodded his head at her. He gently placed his hand on the back of her neck. His lips gently brushed against her forehead. He rested there head together, breathing in the earth smell of her hair.ย
"Be careful child... Just because you are winning does not mean you've won." Egon whispered against her forehead.ย

Endeavor stared at Aizawa as he held onto his sons hand. Endeavorโs Shoto stared away from his father at stared at the school before him. His multicolored eyes say a small figure hidden in the shadows.ย
Shoto squinted as he saw a light blue skirt. He saw a pair of e/c eyes peering at him. Shoto let go of his father hand and slowly moved away from him.ย
Endeavor continued to speak with Aizawa as Shoto slowly slipped away. The blue skirt slipped out of Shotoโs view and he chased after the blue skirt as I kept disappearing around the campus.ย
The blue skirt was behind a tree and Shoto slowly approached the tree. As Shoto circled the tree the skirt disappeared and appeared opposite to him.
โHello? Who are you?โ Shoto asked. His tone soft and stoic. He heard sifting giggling as he saw a girl peer out front he other side.
Shotoโs face flushed with red as he stared at the girl in front of him. She had h/c hair glow flowing freely with a black ribbion bow. A knee-length puffed sleeve dress with a pinafore worn over the top. Long white socks with ankle-strap shoes.
She had bright e/c eyes the shimmered in the sunlight. Her s/c skin had a glow to it. Her face was sweet and bubbly. Her eyes held curiosity as she stared at Shoto. Shoto could help but compare the girl to a fairytale, maybe even a fairytale princess.ย
Y/n smiled brightly at the newcomer. His multiple colored eyes reminded Y/n of caterpillar. His red and white hair seemed really soft. Y/n wanted to reach out and touch it. There was a red scar over his turquoise eye.ย
Y/n thought he looked like a popsicle. One of those American multicolored ones. He was a very nice looking popsicles. Y/n came out from behind the tree and stared at Shoto with a smile.
โHello.โ Y/n spoke softly. Shoto could only stare for a moment. Her voice was the most beautiful thing heโd ever heard. It was the perfect combination of sweet, soft, gentle, and a slight be of curiosity.ย
โItโs Todoroki Shoto.โ Shoto spoke as he moved away from the tree.
โIโm Y/n.โ She mumbled. She looked away as she bit her lip. How do I talk to him Y/n wondered. If she didnโt know how to say something Aizawa would just figure it out. Y/n was unsure of what to do with the boy in front of her.
โWanna have a tea party with me?โ Y/n stammered. Shoto unfroze and stared at Y/n. His grey and turquoise eyes peering into her e/c eyes. Shoto nodded her head softly and a bright smile came over Y/nโs face.
She grabbed onto his hand and began to pull him towards a new spot. This spot had a nice quilt on the ground with tea set and many different tea snacks. Y/n pushed Shoto to the ground gently and pushed a tea cups into his hands.
Shoto gasped as the tea cups, tea cakes, sandwiches, and tea pot floated in the air. Y/n waved her hand and the tea pot floated towards him and pour some tea into his cup.ย
Music seemed to fill the air in a happily and upbeat tone. The tea set began to speak and sing. Y/n laughed in delight as Shoto watched her. She seemed at peace. Sugar and cream poured into his tea.
Shoto took a sip of his tea and near choked at it sweetness. Y/n shoot her head towards him with a bashful look. With a small wave hai tea cup floated away and towards her.
Y/n waved her hand and all the sugar and cream flew out. She handed him back his tea cup.
โSorry, I forget not everyone like thereโs their tea the way I do.โ Y/n hand looking up at the bright blue sky. Shoto merely smiled at her and sipped his tea softly. Y/n began to eat an iced cookie with adorable face.
The pair sat in a comfortable silence as the enjoyed Y/nโs strange tea party.
Taking requests I may or may not know the fandom so give me a little context and Iโll see what I can do. Also most of my work has darkish or dark themes.
