Prologue
The darkness from the Dark Side of the Island was thickening more than ever before. Growing beyond the rate the Chief of Siren Salt could imagine. No matter what has been done to keep the darkness at bay, it no longer holds as long as it once did. The sacrifices of the potential vassals were not only meant for him, but for the creature that awaits in the darkness. Now, it’s only a matter of time before the creature of darkness awakens and consumes everything they hold dear.
“Father!” Liera calls from a distance. “There’s a ship heading towards our shore. It somehow broke through our shields and wards.”
Ever since that encounter with Kresla all those months ago, Liera has matured a lot. She has really become the leader everyone could be proud of. Jet has also matured with her, training new recruits and setting up security they hoped they never had to use, but with a ship that has broken through shields and wards for the first time in ever, things are about to take a turn for the worst. “How far are they?” he said with a sigh.
“They are about twenty minutes away, but it might be sooner. They are closing in really fast. Should I have Jet get our warriors ready?”
“No,” he said,” Let’s see what they want first. Hopefully, we can avoid conflict with our first-time guests.”
