Third Person’s POV
Soran mourned for Asha and the rest the Blood Wolves clan members that have lost their lives unjustly in just a night.
He carried Asha’s cold body to the temple of the Blood Wolves clan that is especially built for the Priestess. The temple’s position is at the peak of the only mountain of the blessed land.
And it is for the Priestess to be closest to the pure light of the moon that feels the same as the origin of their existence.
Soran trudged up towards the rough terrain while carrying Asha on his back. Sweat trickled down his pale and haggard face as he single-mindedly continued his trek with pupils blended in darkness.
The warm touch of the morning sun did nothing to alleviate the coldness that is currently occupying his heart and soul.

He could not even se

She could not even feel her own body anymore due to the numbness, but her mind is not even focused on the pain that used to be unbearable to her on a daily basis as it floated faster than her to the capital where the Royal Ark clan’s ancestral home is situated.A ball of regret could not be diminished in her heart as she thought of the fact that she is unable to do anything when her enemies are just close at hand.A sudden stop caused the carriage to shake as the sounds of neighing rang loudly in the air with the boisterous voices of the middle-aged uncle and his subordinates.&ld
Full Moon IIThird Person’s POVThe cacophony of chants seems to flow in the hearts of the citizens as they all bowed down to the full moon. The crackling sounds of the silver flames served as the background noise as the offerings inside the giant cauldron turned into wisps of ashes that suddenly floated out of its mouth before being carried by the wind to be scattered into the vast land of Selestine.King Regor looked around his citizens to see their blind faith to the Moon goddess. He could only swallow the feeling of dissatisfaction while imagining the day that he will also receive this kind of worship.King Regor’s tall figure suddenly shifted as sounds of bones popping could be heard, and it did not take a couple of seconds for a huge brown wolf to appear in the center of the square. King Regor’s wolf form issued a humming growl coming from the depths of his throat before mightily raising his head to howl upwards to the vast skies,

As the next priestess of the Blood Wolves clan, Asha could already feel the difference between her existence and the existence of others.She could see the flow of energy in the land of the wolves that was blessed by the power of the Moon goddess.

Departure IIThird Person’s POVA day and night passed without much wave. Asha leaned against the wide trunk of a tree in the middle of the forest trail that she had chosen to take.
