《The Prophecy Of The Four Kings》Chapter 20

"Hey....hey.....Aluric....ALURIC, get up its morning", the guy sitting next to Aluric, in the boat said,
Aluric rolled over and looked out at the water, it was covered in a thick fog, he got up, and folded his arms in front of his chest a slight grin formed on his face, his skin was a soft brown, causing his face to appear very youthful, his pure white long sleeved trench coat almost blended in with the thick fog but the golden crosses on it were shining though barely, his boots were red and stood out the most in what he was wearing, and all you could really see was his bright red hair, that was plait in a ponytail running all the way down to his lower back,
"Pix, row us to the island, it's time to have a chat with an old friend of mine", Aluric said, the grin on his face widening as his eyes filled with excitement,
“how are you this excited, when you just woke up”, Pix said,
“well yumi took interest in these four guys, so they must be strong”, Aluric said,
“still doesn’t explain your excitement”, pix said,
“really pix, you of all people should know, how exciting it is to know you might have a good fight on your hands, plus its been a while since I fought someone I didn’t immediately put into the ground”, Aluric said,
Pix, the other guy that was in the boat, grabbed a hold of both paddles,his body mostly covered with a cloak, began rowing, all the while Aluric stood with his hands still folded at the front of the boat,
“fine, but I’m staying on the boat”, Pix said,
Back on the island
Polaris sat on a huge boulder, near the edge of the island looking out at the foggy water, listening to the waves crash on the shore, the sound of the water provided a calmness for him, he wondered if it had anything to do with his affinity for water due to his blessing,

He was remembering, his childhood and how hard his step father had been on Him, all of the strenuous and rigorous training he had been put through, how he was beaten for failing to complete tasks or when he expressed his thoughts of freedom, zaraar had only become his step father due to fact that his brother, and polaris’ true biological father had died, shortly after Polaris had been conceived, and zaraar had stepped up saying that he would take in his mother, and help raise him,
He remembered a specific day, that day his basic training for using his blessing had finished, and the elders informed him that he was now able to accompany the senior members on enforcer missions, Polaris was no more than ten years old at the time, he was a little excited at the thought, as months prior barak had done his, and excelled to the point that he was given minor missions to handle on his own, he also remembered the look on zaraar’s face, that wicked grin that was painted on his face,
That same day, was when zaraar took him to that all too familiar dungeon, to one of the lowest levels, in a room lit only by the six torches that were placed onto the wall, inside stood a tree, a living tree, surrounded by a stone made altar, that had the symbol of the goddess junorra engraved on it, and on top of the altar sat a mask, a mask that he became all to familiar with, in the coming years,
Then he came back to reality realizing that someone was walking through the water,
He got up, standing on the boulder, he placed his hand on his sword, the person walked onto the shore out of the fog, he immediately locked eyes with Polaris,

Smiling he said ,"ahh, I wasn't expecting to meet someone so soon, I'm looking for my friend",
Polaris gripped his sword tighter, and who is you friend ?",pol asked,
"She's about yay tall, dark skinned, loud mouthed", he said, gesturing slightly below his chest,
"And she goes by the name yumi", he concluded,
"Oh.....her", Polaris answered reluctantly , slowly lowering his guard and letting go of his sword,
‘I can tell he is strong, not to mention, he came to this island by himself, this early in the morn…., wait a minute, the boat from last night, he might’ve been on it, staking out the island, which means he still approached knowing that all of us were on the island, its best if I get the others involved’, Polaris thought to himself,
"Well follow me, i'll take you to her", Polaris said, gesturing with his hand to follow him,
“well I’m surprised you’re so trusting of a stranger, you must’ve lead quite the easy life”, Aluric mentioned walking up to Polaris,
“hardly”, Polaris scoffed under his breath,
The two headed towards the trees in the direction of the hideout,
The walk towards the hideout was quiet, Polaris walking a cautious distance away from the unknown person, with every step polaris grew even more cautious, as something felt off about this whole situation, he slowly placed his hand back on his sword, he felt as though this man behind him was impossible to beat on his own
Suddenly polaris' jolted up, he saw levant walking in his direction, Polaris sighed with relief, feeling as though a weight was lifted off his chest,
"Ohh, Polaris I was just looking for...." Levant stopped what he was saying,
"Pol who is that, behind you ?" Levant asked,
"He said he's a ‘FRIEND’ of yumi's", Polaris answered,
“and you believed him just like that”, Levant questioned, slamming his palm against his forehead,
“yeah sure I believed him”, Polaris answered, gesturing the hand that was on the sword so that Levant would take notice,
"Ohhh, okay then", levant stated, throwing his hands behind his back reaching for his guns,
“POL DUCK” Levant shouted, pulling out both of his pistols,

The Wizard Division
Everyone knows that magic is real, that it's the driving force behind the evolution society has gone through over the past few thousand years. Everyone gets annoyed by faeries that steal your socks, or swap your car for a carriage, or coat all your food with salt. Because things like that don't matter enough to hide. Everyone learns about Hitler, the darkest necromancer ever known,who singlehandedly waged war on the rest of the world, in school, and the other similar events in history. Because they were too large to hide. But for everything else, the veil hides the magic from the mundane. There might be an unlicenced werewolf working as your librarian. Maybe a dragon owns your local banking chain. Maybe the murder victim who was killed in a locked room WAS killed by an angry ghost. Or a shapeshifter. Or the elder Fae. Or a rogue Wizard. The solution? Everyone knows the answer to that too. The one thing every police department in the world has in common. The Wizard Division. The L.A.W.D. (Los Angeles Wizard Division) is in for one hell of a ride, when Charlie, a new trainee foisted into the world of magic joins their ranks, and with him a whole host of new and unusual magic sheananigans comes to Los Angeles. Updates twice weekly. Make sure to follow for more updates.

[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Textbook Definition of a Vaewolf; Hybrid, of Vampire and Werewolf. When the FAE, creatures of fantasy and long-lost history, rushed out of the depths of the earth, sick of how humanity had destroyed the world, no one had expected it. Unable to contend against their magic and advanced technology, Humanity was soon on the verge of extinction. Until, one ambitious man, invented the Fae Serums. And thus, a new world of Fae Humans was born. Miles Lykaon was meant to live a life of absolute comfort and power, as the next heir to Lykaon Industries. But when he was still a child, his parents passed away. Even with his Butler/Guardian watching over him, in order to protect what his parents had left, he was forced to grow older beyond his age. But he failed, and his inheritance fell into other hands. Until one fateful night, when two mysterious strangers, monsters, crashed into his home. He was meant to die, but a ghost saved his life, sacrificing the two monsters in his place. When Miles woke up, he had been granted a mysterious system, with a strange feature called forms. And so begins the Legend of the Vaewolf, the Lord of Blood and Shadow, the Huntsman of the Wild. Discord Server: https://discord.gg/sPEJKm9Cover Art: Drawn and Designed by me. So expect more art.
