CARLYLE'S POV

Embarking on the journey to the distant land of Aridah proved to be no trivial feat, but my determination fueled

every step. With unwavering resolve, | pressed forward, compelled by an unyielding commitment to unravel the

mysteries that awaitedin the heart of Aridah.

As | treaded the path to Aridah, the landscape bore witness to the ominous signs that whispered an impending

turmoil, an impending war. Small villages which were once vibrant hubs of life were now deserted along the way

with no single sign of life in them. Hollow echoes replaced the usual hum of communal existence, leaving an

unsettling. void in their wake. How did all these happen? | had taken my tto look around for clues.

Also, the cost of necessities like foods, weapons, clothing materials soared to unprecedented heights, rendering

even the most basic of foods a luxury. The inflated prices which was a telltale sign of what was to cwas a

symptom of an impending conflict.

Questions danced in my mind like elusive specters. What ignited the flames of war in this seemingly serene

land? On what basis did these villages becdeserted, leaving their homes behind? The road to Aridah

becnot just a physical journey but a quest for answers.

But what caused the war? On what basis? Why were the villages deserted? Why was there no report about these

things? | didn’t know and sought answers to the question by hastening my journey toward my destination.

Before getting to the land of Aridah, there is a particular piece if and where one must pass and that’s the

Mountain of Canth. That was surely one dreadful name, a nthat brings shivers down one’s spine. A place

where all rationality could be lost if care is not taken. That was because of the inhabitants of the area since the

Canthrastras were sealed. On a normal day, the Canthrastras were the owner of the Mountain of Canth; it was a

place where they had fun and a place where sof their pack tradition takes place. It was a holy mountain for

them and was known to be the most peaceful mountain to ever exist since the supernatural realm cto exist.

However, that was then. Since the Canthrastras were sealed, legend has it that the Mountain of Canth has

becthe opposite of what it was. It was no longer a place of tranquil but now a place of danger. It was known

to be very dangerous.

Werewolf rougues, beasts, maniac vampires and supernaturals took the place as their abode because they knew

nobody ever dares cthere because of the dread the tale of the Canthrastras lied them with.

The few that go there, are either so strong or they don’t cback.

Suddenly, two formidable beasts emerged, their sinewy forms a sign of raw strength. Their eyes were fierce and

they were looking untamed. Surely, one wouldn't find a sane beast out here for no reason. Both beasts locked at

The clash was a symphony of snarls and ferocious roars with the beasts’ muscles rippling with unrestrained

power. | howled, the beasts made their sounds. My every instinct honed in on the ebb and flow of the struggle, a

ballet of survival in the heart of the untamed wilderness. Soon after much waste of strength, the lifeless forms of

the defeated beasts lay silent.

“Afanteé!” | spat on their bodies. They should have known better than attacking me. That word was a swear word

in my pack’s language.

“What's going on?” | asked my wolf who suddenly becrestless, wanting to take over my human senses. He

failed to get what he wanted and began disturbing my mind. No matter how | tried to shut it off, he seems to

have more power at that time. Definitely, something was wrong.

“Speak, Laryl. What's going on?” | asked, groaning out of the pain he inflicted onby wanting to separate our

minds from each other. If Laryl should succeed, then I'm more like a living dead.

“What...” | wasn’t able to complete my question when the smell wafted across my nose.

Her!

“Our mate! Mate!” Laryl finally calmed down when he noticed that I'd found out what was happening.

“Mate!” Was all he said to me. Sidonnie! | looked around, trying to figure out why her scent was around. Moving

forward, her scent becstronger.

“You could have just said it plainly, you know.” | said to Laryl.

“I should say that she’s around here for you to act like an asshole again?” He fired back. | knew where he was

“You don’t have to get had, buddy. It was all calculated. | knew Rex wouldn’t do anything to her.”

“No, you're wrong. You took risk.”

“I know so well what I did. You don’t have to get mad and never should you threatenthe way you did just

now.” | warned to Laryl’s amusement.

Blood! Blood! The strong scent of blood suddenly filed the air and Donnie’s scent becstronger with every

step | took.

“She’s injured” | mumbled after listening in on the father distance ahead. From the

voices and sounds | could get, she wasn’t alone. | hurried up towards the directio

where her smell was quite stronger and | saw her.

She was looking all terrified and scared as sdark men surrounded her. The sky was beginning to get darker

but it wouldn't hurt to take stin her quest. | wanted to intevene hurriedly but | had a second thought

which made Laryl get angry atonce again and tried to surface but | was quick to shut him off this time.

Standing at a distance, | watched as she battled with the six masked men that encircled her in the midst of tree

and flowers. She started out good in defending herself as she ran about the space. Like someone playing with a

child, she ran around, dishing hier attack near her. The scene looked like one of a little child playing a round

about gwith six adults.

The moment | heard her wince, my countenance changed. Her leg was injured already. Nevertheless, she tried to

escape still. Such strong spirit! She could only be my woman. The goddess chose well for me, though, she

needed more training definitely. Then again, she was hit with another weapon on that sleg, making her

bleed more. She couldn't withstand the chase any longer and | decided to interfere.

seconds. | had to save her. Moreover, she was my girl, my

woman.
