His Own Eyes

[Five Years Ago, Summer]

As the hybrid monsters withered and died, as the remaining fae ran away or died, Galen knew that the war was over. He knew that Ashleigh and Caleb had defeated the Dark Queen and saved the people of Summer.

With a chuckle of relief and a warm sense of gratitude flowing over his body, he and the others finished off the remaining fae that insisted on fighting. After another two hours, the war in Summer had ended entirely with only a few casualties.

The Summer soldiers and Crag wolves gathered all the enemy bodies, piling them high and preparing to burn them.

Their fallen allies were gathered and, along with the wounded, returned to the compound with Galen. They would be cleaned and placed in cold storage until their families could return home to say goodbye and light the pyre.
