Evie looked at the core and gritted her teeth. It seemed as though what she had been afraid of had happened. She mourned at how accurate sometimes her instincts and gut feeling could be. It was almost prophetic to a degree. And now even Zolan was advising her to call the troops to withdraw. "RETREAT!" she shouted out using her magic to amplify her voice so it could reach the ears of all the members of their allied forces. Everyone was swift and immediately moved to retreat as per the orders given by Queen…-

Outside the dark core, the fierce battle against the strange black tentacles continued on. Vampires, dark faes, fire and ice dragons alike, all were giving their all in this battle. Everyone somehow had that feeling as though this would be the final battle that would bring them to the end of this ongoing war that had been going on for too long. Though in actual fact, it was not that long. However, the strain and toll it had taken on the minds and morale of the allied forces was just too immense. If not for…

Vera felt as though she had fallen into a lake of fire. Her body seemed to be burning, then it suddenly went numb. She was currently suspended in the air. Yet she felt as though she was falling. Falling endlessly.r That last arc of dark magic had hit her. And it had stuck her point blank since she had purposely put herself in the path of the attack, hoping to receive as much of the blow as possible so she could spare Azure from it. She had succeeded in her attempt. And now, her consciousness was leaving…

As Vera saw the powerful whip of dark magic arcing towards her, she could not help but wince a tiny bit and her eyes fluttered close halfway. However, she could not be faulted for behaving in such a way as every place that the lashes of Gideon's dark magic hit, it left a gaping gash in its wake. On top of that, the gaping wound on the ground would be seeping out black wispy trails of smoke, as though there were some corrosive attributes to his attack. r So, though it had not hit Vera yet so far, she was…

"It's me, Gid… Vera… your mate, your wife, can't you recognize me?" she asked, begging him to hear her. Her trembling hands were still trying to reach for his face. She had missed him. So very much that it hurt like hell. It had not even been that long. It had only been days that had passed since she last saw him, but it felt as though months had already passed. Just as her hand was about to reach and touch his face, her vision suddenly blurred as she was rudely yanked away from him. And then she…

Vera did not know what had gotten into her. All she knew was that she refused to just leave Azure behind. He was her mount and they had already gone through so many life and death situations together while fighting this war. He had always been by her side ever since they had first met. So how could she even think of leaving him now, when he was the one in trouble right now? Also, there was something in her gut that seemed to be pushing her to make this one reckless and suicidal move. She did not know…

Beatrice' impossible speed and strength had kept them hanging on for a long time. Vera gritted her teeth again and placed her hand on the tentacle. She can't give up when everyone was fighting with everything they had. She can't rest while her mother-in-law was fighting to the extreme without any moment of reprieve. She needed to hold on. At least, Azure was not riddled with injuries and still had some strength to fight back. No matter what happens, she needed to keep fighting along side everyone. "Vera!"…

Vera had screamed out, feeling the shock and slight pain that travelled through her mind link with her dragon. Looking closer, Vera noticed that the tentacle was tightening itself around Azure, as though trying to strangle him on top of already pulling him towards the black core. He was straining as he fought to pull back and resisted the smoky cords that seemed hellbent on dragging him away.r "Azure..!!"r It was not an exaggeration to say that the skyscape on Vera's corner of the world was in complete…

___ As the light fae opened her mouth to speak, what emerged was a shrill scream. "Kei!!!" she heard Queen Evie's yell. And then she found herself looking at Queen Evie and Zolan who were in shock, as she was flying further away from them, her body being pulled horizontally. Wait… why is she moving backwards? She had only seen her world spinning as she felt herself flipped and pulled. Twisting her head back with much difficulty, she saw the problem. There was the same dark…

"We're doing well! Keep it up!" Evie took a couple seconds to rally her teammates and encourage them. "Just push forward a little more, Onyx. We're almost to the core." A reverberating roar came from the rest of the first division army that had moved with them. They had heard the words of their Queen and were fired up. They had been fighting with all that they had to push forward and at the same time keep their losses to a minimum. So far, it had been good. And they were very close to…
