Chapter 334

The air in the Shadow Lands was suffocating, thick with a fog that carried whispers of despair. Dain stepped cautiously through the barren terrain, the shard’s dark energy pulsating in his palm. It guided him forward, pulling him deeper into the unknown.

The Warden of Shadows had promised power, and Dain could feel it coursing through him like a wildfire. Yet, doubt lingered at the edges of his mind. Was this truly his path, or was he being lured into something he couldn’t control?

A guttural growl broke the silence, pulling Dain from his thoughts. He froze, his senses heightened. Ahead, a pair of glowing red eyes pierced through the darkness, followed by more—dozens, maybe hundreds.

The shadow wolves emerged, their sleek, black forms blending seamlessly with the gloom. They moved like phantoms, silent and predatory, their claws scraping faintly against the ground.

Dain clenched his fist, the shard in his palm reacting to his unease. The wolves circled him, their growls low and threatening. Despite their intimidation, Dain stood his ground, his gaze unwavering.

“Do you feel it, Dain?” the Warden’s voice echoed, though the figure was nowhere to be seen. “The power you hold over them. The shard binds them to you, but only if you have the strength to wield it.”

Dain’s jaw tightened. “And if I don’t?”

The Warden’s chuckle was dark and foreboding. “Then they will tear you apart.”

The wolves began to close in, their movements synchronized as if guided by a single mind. Dain’s heart raced, but he refused to let fear consume him. He raised the shard, its dark energy swirling and expanding.

“Stop!” Dain commanded, his voice firm and resonant.

The wolves hesitated, their growls subsiding as their red eyes flickered. Dain felt the shard’s power surging, intertwining with his will. He took a step forward, meeting the gaze of the largest wolf, its towering form exuding dominance.

“You will obey me,” Dain said, his tone steady and unyielding. “Not out of fear, but because I am your leader.”

The lead wolf snarled, baring its fangs, but Dain didn’t flinch. Instead, he channeled the shard’s energy, letting it flow through him and into the pack. The wolves trembled, their forms rippling as if caught in a storm.
