Chapter 5 – The Gathering in the Shadows
The Wolf does not seek the crown.
He only wants the king to feel fear when he closes his eyes.
Eirik leads his pack through forgotten tunnels, with Sigra as an edge and Bjorn as a shield.
They move like shadows. They breathe like wraiths.
They reach the throne without bloodshed.
And there, in the gloom, the past awaits:
Alrik. The brother. The impostor.
There is no battle. Only words.
But in them, there is more edge than in a hundred swords.
And when they go, they leave no bodies…
They leave a kingdom trembling.
