Drifted into

Taking that sword through my chest wasn't easy, I could feel the serge of pain rushing  through my body right on impact. But compare to the pain that Maria went through by the the hands of those human. I just hope that I can go wherever you are now to apologize. 

" Just wait for me, I will see you soon my love."

Are so I thought at least. My surroundings felt calm but dense with a strange atmosphere, almost like energy. It was coursing through my entire body. It was enough to jolt my body awake despite me being on the verge of death.

"Death wait, am I dead or alive?"

I open my eyes finally to find my body drifting down a incredible long and narrow stream. My body aches whenever I move due to the sword still stuck in my chest, and the knight who stab me still holding on. At least the knight is dead. Removing the sword and the knight after getting out of the water. I observe my surround to find various strange plants. While traversing through the oddly shape trees and plants, I came across a beast that I never encountered before.

A massive deer like creature, its size is of an adult elephant. It clear color horns reflex the sunlight making it all shinny like holding up a gem to the sunny sky. The weird pattern on it skin makes it look also ancient or even majestic. Once I approach closer the deer looking so innocent, it show its true color, nothing like what was describe at first when sensing my presence. This beast was incredible violence when it charges at me. I  dodge, but barely and the beast crash through several trees indicating it incredible strenght and speed.

Finding this thing more dangerous than the great serpent. I choice to hide, which  is a smart plan on my side considering that I am still injury. I still have his family dagger I received from father after becoming the new alpha. Lucky to still have it, but isn't sure that it can do much other from using it to hunt small beasts of food. As the days go by follwoing the event of that deer attack.

After a while, I came upon a strange looking mountain with two different ecosystem on each side. One of a barren deserted land and the other of a nature fill land. It was the two nature mountain that his father talk aboot after adventuring into the forbidden zone many times. Which mean Alec somehow ended up in the forbidden zone after falling off the cliff. Not sure how since the forbidden zone is block off by a barrier which no one can enter and exit every 5 years.

Climbing to the top to get a better view of the place, I accidentally broke through some weird alter on the top of the mountain where he fell through and found himself inside some strange but fantasy like cave surrounded with many light mineral that response to my  magic fire ball he create to light the dark room he landed in.

I found a path going further inside the mountain. I enter a strange open space alter at least 30 meter deep from floor to ceiling with a single path leading in the centre hovering over the floor. Taking a step going in foward, the cave automatically lights up the inside with blue flame torches that lite  themselves. I have learn about magic, but never one that can do something like this. He is amaze, wanting to know just what is this place. As I saw at the center of the hall. I  notice a giant like wolf laying down motionless. Hesitant at first, after concluding the encounter with the deer. I then felt a strange feeling, like if something was resonating with my wolf blood. It actually feel something is calling me. To answer that call, I bravely step toward the giant wolf only to discover that it is dead.

Felt a bit of anticlimactic when suddenly, a ball of blue light exit the giant wolf before entering my body. I screams worryingly not knowing what just happen but seconds later, my sword wound magical heal up completely. No more pain and my body felt rejuvenate, like I am brimming with power. I had no idea what just happen but I thanks the giant wolf corspes for the power to now deal with the beasts outside. I left wanting to get back home, at first I choice death because of my own weakness to protect Maria and my child, as well as my own father. But, I am still alive now after everything that happened.

" There must be a reason why I am alive, and I believe this is the reason. The power to protect what I have left behind. I need to hurry back home to see what is going on with the war if it is still happening."

But first I wanted to tested out my new strength by killing that giant deer from a few days again. Feeling that my new superhuman strenght and speed amazing after killing the deer.

After absorbing whatever that ball of light was. It always felt like I knew where to go.  And after sometime, I manages to make to where this feeling was leading me. A massive dark color barrier stands before me as high as the sky with no end. I have already had my  suspicion, but I can now confirm that I am really ended up inside the forbidden zone after my fell. But I was trap and unable to break out, I frustratingly bang my  fist on the barrier as I desperately want to escape and return home and see my family again.

In my frustration, a voice is heard in my head telling me that I have no home. I turned around to see who is talking to me only to find myself standing in a pitch black surrounding with the image of that same giant wolf I met before. I was startle badly like anyone else who is seeing giant wolf staring down on me while being surrounded by a pitch black darkness.

" Who are you?" I asked. The wolf replied in a godly voice that I have no home. The same sentence as before.

I don't know what the wolf is talking about, so I question the wolf by what he meant by those words. When the wolf didn't answer but giggle. I got furious and argue with the wolf until it gave my a strange power and I found himself back on the outside. But my eyes feel different. I felt like I could see everything on the island, both inside and outside the forbidden zone.

" Did the wolf gave me this strange ability?" For what reason? I didn't know at first until I  recall the wolf words about me not having any home. With this power to see all on the island. I take a look at my home, the northern village thinking that the wolf meant that the we have lost the war against the human.

But that wasn't the case, I learned that the wolves won that war, manages to drive away the human. Only with the destruction of the southern village, everyone else is safe and is slowly recovering from the war. I laugh at the wolf wondering why the wolf was teasing me like this.

" I almost think of the worst."

The voice of the wolf return, giggling at me to sit back and enjoy the show. I was confuse so I continue to watch my family from the northern village. I saw my mother standing before my and Maria's graves.

" So they believe that I am dead since they couldn't found my body."

I shouted out to mother that I  is still alive, that I am is right here. But of course she couldn't here me. Returning back to the house that is my father. At first, I was happy to see that my father is alive and doing well. But my eyes were drawn to the strange baby my father is holding in his hand.

" Who is that?" It didn't take long for me to see that it is a human baby.
