The Pale Thorn Pact Part 2
The path narrowed until it became less a trail and more a wound in the mountainside—sharp, narrow, treacherous. Black rock jutted from the snow like jagged ribs, and the cold wasn’t just biting anymore. It pressed into the lungs, gnawed at bone. Elira pulled her scarf tighter across her face, eyes narrowed against the wind.

The Pale Thorn Pact – Part 1
The wind whispered down the mountain pass like it carried secrets. Cold ones. Ones that lingered in your bones long after the snow stopped falling. Vaelin rode in silence, his dark cloak trailing behind him like a shadow unbroken by time. The trail before them twisted through a stretch of pale, frozen forest where even the trees looked afraid—limbs heavy with snow, branches bent low as though bowing beneath unseen weight.
