Chapter 254
- Darius POV
- I walk the perimeter, checking lines, watching torches, listening to the sounds of a camp that knows war is coming again. The air feels different now—
- By the time the sun crests the treeline, the camp is already moving. Warriors are up, armor strapped on, blades sharpened. Packs that weren’t here a week ago are now woven into the rhythm like they’ve always belonged.
