A person can only stay calm for a while, and when it’s over, all the worries come crashing down at once. They had somehow managed to have breakfast, but by lunchtime, their restlessness had killed their appetite.
Viara was pacing back and forth around the Black Crystal. The room had housed only the sound of her steps in the last two hours. They were all present here, but not a word had...

The sky had finally fallen on the Azereus this Morning. The solemnity that enveloped the Azereus radiated the feeling of Death. The time had arrived for their demise.
Akira sat in her Castle. Yes, the same castle she had been in last night. She was supposed to have gone by now, but Holfeim never came for her. Fenris had officially declared the exit of Lycans from the Wolfkin Allian...

The little dryad that held his arm tightly was perhaps the only reason why he still had some composure left in him. He collected himself and smiled gently to her. He patted her soft head lightly, but the welling tears in her eyes had not faded. Who was he trying to fool? She could clearly feel the piercing pain in his heart.
Aizen turned around and looked at the expression Akira wo...

His words were devoid of any emotion, but the people that heard it still tensed up. The lady that had questioned them became solemn and the two behind her had worries evident on their faces.
“Morningstar” The lady muttered. It took her a while before she recovered her thoughts. “You have been misinformed. We don’t have your Mother’s treasure. Leave.”
Her words were n...

The airport they landed on belonged to Silverstein Empire. It was a private airport and bigger than many international airports of the world. When they stepped out of the plane, three black cars were waiting for them.

“The Morningstar is in the city.”
In a room where several people were present, a petite lady with Silver hair informed them.
“Are his Empress and High Queen with him?” The man sitting in front of her on the couch asked in a husky voice.
“Only his Empress and her Shadow are with him. Other than them, there’s a little girl, but we have no information on her.” She said apolo...

When Aizen woke up, he found himself pressed under a familiar weight. Liafina was lying on top of him with her head nestled on his heart. He lightly stroked her head and did not disturb her sleep.
“She stayed up all night, and only fell asleep after I came here.”
He turned to the voice and saw Viara sitting by his side with her back resting against the headboard. Her eyes we...

Aizen looked at the women dressed in their battle suits. He should have expected this when he had asked Viara to decide on who would be joining him on the journey. She had chosen herself and Lysaria to be the ones to accompany him.
Vienna and Meera were to stay behind. Xeina was still a guest, and so Viara didn’t ask of anything more of her than to look after Vienna and Meera. Wh...

The laughter subsided, and Fenris looked at them with not a bit of displeasure or anger. He was all smiles.
“I didn’t expect you to kill her so soon, Morningstar. I thought she would create some difficulties for you before you take this action.” He said.
“But you killed her without giving her any opportunities to make troubles for you. I am really impressed.” He nodded...

Xeina had started to fall in love with the Star Palace. This was the place she always wanted to be at. A place that was majestic and beautiful, and did not have too many people. Every morning she would take a walk around this small Star which had Star Palace as its sole patch of land. And every day she would come to like this place even more.
She would spend some of her ...

There comes a time in life when one questions the meaning of his existence. The guilt or regret that takes root in the heart makes it restless, and the mind is no longer able to think beyond the most painful memories.

People left the place one by one, and soon only Aizen and his group remained by the battlefield.
They all stood there in silence for a while. They had already prepared if Yuren couldn’t eliminate Mervin. Even the representatives of Ianserk Clan wouldn’t have rescued him if they killed Mervin after the duel. But he hadn’t failed. His valiance demanded to be respected.

Liafina wanted to be there to see off her grandfather, but she realized that she could only helplessly go to her new home. She had stayed with Yuren the entire morning as Yuren passed on his last words to her. No one had disturbed them or heard their conversation. She had then unwillingly left for the Star Palace with her tears running down her cheeks. Her family had died because of h...

A few days after Mervin had gone missing and with no clue about his whereabouts the attention of people was now solely on Yuren. There were many rumors regarding Yuren circulating in the city of Morio. He was believed to be taking refuge in the Moonlight Inn while some rumors stated that he was living in the woods. Other than these rumors, there were some Memory Stones being circulate...

Aizen, Aaron, and Keira had come here in the guest room where a man dressed in a suit waited for them. They were quite surprised to see that he sat there unmasked before them. He looked at them and then grinned.

There was smoke everywhere, and within it were resounding whispers of lust and love. She was in arms of a shade that she couldn’t see and only could feel the warmth of it.

She was scared about his intentions, but to her relief, he had only held her in his embrace as they lay together on the bed. He wouldn't let go of her, and she didn't struggle in fear that her struggle would lead him to do more than just to hold her in h...

The dinner table was quite lively. Viara had woken up and seemed her usual self. The Starlight Family had joined them as well, and they informed that Xeina and Ayana will be staying at the Star Palace from now on. Xeina seemed quite displeased but had not rebutted her father’s decision. At the end of the dinner, Aizen announced his plans.

Vienna was excited and a little scared. She had been teasing Aizen all the time but this night had finally come. The only thing keeping her from not being too nervous was Meera who was already red with anticipation. She did not speak to her and just sat there holding her hand to comfort her. They had already set the bed in white and changed their dresses in red chemises.

The atmosphere in the Hall tensed. Everyone knew about the enmity between the Star Palace and The Hand of Kosmos. Each person in the Hall looked at Aizen. Some of them were worried about what would happen to them if he turned away these people today.

The unwilling eyes eventually opened, and the sweet ache that his body held brought a smile on his lips. He had not slept so soundly in over a month and he had missed it. He sat up and stretched his arms over his head.
