Chapter 379: The Rogue King’s Gambit

Killian's POV

The Forsaken Amulet sat in the center of the Silvermoon council table, its ornate carvings shimmering faintly in the dim light.

The room was silent, heavy with the weight of what we'd brought back from the ruins.

"It doesn't look like much," Drystan said, his tone edged with frustration as he leaned back in his chair.

"It doesn't have to," Nova replied sharply, her gaze fixed on the Amulet. "You felt what it did to us down there. This thing is dangerous, whether it looks like it or not."

I nodded, my eyes narrowing as I stared at the artifact. The power radiating from it was subtle but undeniable, a constant hum that set my wolf on edge.

"We can't keep it here," Astrid said, breaking the tense silence. "If the rogues find out we have it, they'll stop at nothing to get it back."

“That's assuming they don't already know," Drystan muttered.

The tension in the room was palpable, every word charged with the fear and uncertainty of what lay ahead.

The meeting was interrupted by the sharp knock of a scout at the council chamber door. He entered quickly, his face pale and his breathing labored.

border. He claims he's a messenger from the Rogue King."

The room erupted in murmurs, but I silenced them with a raised hand. "What does he want?"
