Chapter 64 The Tunnels Beneath

• There was no wind inside the tunnels. No breath. No echo.
• Just stone and silence.
• Jacobs led the strike unit into the old passage beneath Hollowpine, glaive in hand, senses sharpened to a razor’s edge. Behind him moved Kael, unusually quiet, followed by Jessica and a half-dozen Bloodhowl scouts cloaked in silence spells. Their torches weren’t flames — they were soul lanterns, forged by Elira, burning low with light visible only to wolf-kind.
