The moment my boots touched the ground, a sliver ran down my spine.

The alt here was different-thick with something old, something bedry. It pressed down on my chest, seeping into my bones like a memory long buried hat never truly forgotten. The ruins around is fetched be the bones of a fallen beast- crumbling walls, shattered pillars, and an eerie silence that settled deep inside me, cold and unshakable.

And yet, despite the decay, despite the passage of time, I knew this ace.

I had never been here before, not truly, but I knew it.

"This place..." I whispered, my voice barely above the wind.

Austin stepped forward, his brows furrowed as he surveyed the ruins. "Where are we?"

Isaiah ran a hand through his hair, frustration evident in the tense set of his shoulders. “We should be at the Sacred Hall. I put in the coordinates exactly."

Elijah shot him a look. "Are you sure about that?"

Isaiah frowned, checking the enchanted compass in the car. He stared at the numbers, his expression shifting from confusion to something close to disbelief.

I knew this place.

The realization hit me like a physical blow, making my knees weak.

Elijah was the first to speak. "What massac

massacre?"

I turned to face them, my fingers tightening against the stone as memories that weren't mine clawed their way to the surface, forcing their way into my mind like ghosts demanding to be heard.

"The Silvermoon line," I said, my throat tightening. "This is where they were slaughtered. My ancestors."

Llooked around again, but this time, I saw more than just ruins. I say what had been-what had been lost.

The air carried whispers of the past, echoes of screams, the crackle of flames.
