Gorrow is faced with a dilemma -- does he abandon his village to the raids of evil minions, or does he attempt to defend it?
Or could he disappear completely?

I took a day’s break from Camelot after the fall of the city and all the intensity afterwards, but all the time I was away, I kept thinking of my village -- Silver Drift.
So as soon as I got time, here I am again. I stand by my limestone tower on the moorland and look west to the lowlands where the city that was Camelot now glows black and evil. I hear they’ve renamed it Stygia after some place in hell.
My village of Silver Drift is prospering. The wooden palisade around the village has been upgraded to limestone, with double durability from enemy attack. There’s a

Over to the east, the enemy village of Carrionburg glows black and red, indicating an evil zone of control. They know we’re here at Silver Drift. It’s just a matter of time, now Camelot has fallen, that they turn their attention to us. It won’t be their main army, because that’s headed south after King Arthur. The last time I had news from outside Silver Drift, it was that the enemy’s army had clashed with the King’s forces at the bridge over the River Lune. I don’t yet know who won that skirmish.
“Penny for them.”
I look up to see the talking mule, Henry, who’s appointed himself leader of the mules and horses working in Silver Drift. It’s still weird to have a mule talk to you, but I smile. “What’s up,

How’ve you been? And more important, what are you doing here?”
He shrugs. “You know I came back to Camelot to look for you after it had fallen?”
“And I appreciate that. You shouldn’t have put yourself in danger.”
“Never mind about that. But…” he scratches his head. “When I tried to get back to join the King’s army, I found my way blocked by bad guys. I died a couple of times and then thought I’d come back to see my old friend Gorrow in the only safe place left in the north.”
“I’m not sure it’s that safe, Bernie. At least not for long.”
“Aw, don’t say that.” He gestures towards the settlement of Silver Drift. “It seems to be growing nicely. All you need is a few cows and some more houses and it’ll be a hamlet. Next thing and it’ll be a village.”
I point east towards the shifting line of black and red that marks the evil zone of control. “You see how close that line is coming? And Alston’s fallen.”
“Alston’s fallen? So you really are the last friendly settlement in the north.”
I nod. “There’s a band of evil control now right across the island from the east coast to the west. You have to go a hundred miles south before you get to friendly
“I have an idea, and it’s just crazy enough it might work. Bane will need time to drive into the village, round up some horses, and get back here. He thinks he has us trapped, but we’ll fool him. Come on!” He tugged at my T-shirt.

Growing up with Elementals as her family, Sá knows the truth about how the orderly actually treat them.

The cold sensation of murky ground slowly but surely switched from soil to smooth stone, the flatness of it being significantly easier on Jack 's feet as he moved away from the entrance and further into Pitch 's lair. Emptiness hung in the air, silent if not for the creaking of lead cages. With his eyes flicking between the cages, stairwells, and the bright glittering globe in the center, Jack comes to the conclusion that the place might feel emptier more because of the lack of teeth canisters than anything else. "You thought everything would be all right, now that the darkness has subsided. Centuries of loneliness, gone.
“Fergus. It’s just up the river.” He responded. Small talk continued in our tent and soon we were all acquainted with each other.
“Me too” I said. It was settled. We are going to get out. We went to the outpost but we ducked behind a wall as two military came
The knight sat cross-legged in the cathedral, it was dark except for slivers of bright light filtering through the stained glass windows- portraying the deeds of a legendary hero. Across the room sat the king of the land- Enped Derfe sat somberly on his throne. There was something plaguing this sacred land, a dragon called Gordoug had been ransacking local villages and cities. The king looked down at his shaking hands. The knight had never seen him like this.
He nods and we army crawl until we get to the rocky road, then we sprint to behind the chapel. We are out of breath but then we saw a dark shape moving towards us. We just thought it was another smuggler, so I say, “Find Jonathan yet?” Then he turns on a red light and our expressions change from casual to
So...is that the only reason you're here? To apologize?" Sadie looked relieved then shook her head. " Actually, no. There's something else. Tonight me, Carter, and a few other initiates are going to Texas, to get the last special copy of the Book of the Dead."
Ricardo Figueroa Interview - Arika Davis I slouched back into the hard plastic chair. My dark eyes took in all of my surroundings. I carefully studied the dirty green colored carpeted flooring, the stained plaster walls, and the desk that stood before me. My eyes traced along the the legs of desk, which were carved to look like a lion’s leg. My eyes stopped on the foot of the leg.
“Just what do you think you are doing? This was supposed to be an easy victory for us! Why did you release those men?” Tigris laughed.
I awake to my mother, the queen, screaming at me. She yells constantly and it drives minsane. I decide that I should at least try and reason with her today. So I crawl out of my uncomfortable bed to deal with her. When I walk in she’s giving me an evil glare, but still giving a nasty grin.
“Silver! You are a liar and a traitor!” he roared. “Let’s shoot the boy and Long John Silver! We are more crowded than them.
"We 'll see" I said. When we got inside all of the other hunters eyes went on us. Other than Mont nobody at the club had seen Flint before. As we headed to get some coffee an old, short, stocky man that everyone took to calling old man Morgan made a bee line toward us. From the grin on his face I knew he had a joke ready. "
“Ma 'am, I 'm gonna try my hardest ta keep myself straight. I might’ve fell off the wagon, but I’s got back up, didn 't I?” “Yes, sir, you sure did! “ “And, I’s a keep pickin’ myself up as long as I has y’all ta lean on…” “I talked with Henry last night and we have decided to move up to Cherokee County.
*sigh* "finally it's done, you know that your more trouble than your worth." He picks up the unconscious Fafnir and whistles into the air. "Let's just hope our horse friend is still alive after all this chaos." Samael looks at the destruction that they have caused with their battle. "It looks like we can't return to this place anymore, such a shame.
