He turned to Livia, his expression serious. “We must be careful, dear. This book may hold the answers we seek, but it could also be dangerous.”
After sensing the strange aura emanating from the book “History of the Wolf Clan: From Rise to Fall,” Isolde decided not to touch it right away.
She felt there was another way to access the secrets within, something more subtle than simply turning the pages.
Isolde thought hard, trying to gather the memories that had just surfaced in her mind. She remembered the legend of the secret room in the Athenaeum Arcana, a place where the most valuable—and dangerous—knowledge was kept. Could this book be the key to finding that secret room?
Meanwhile, Livia was near the bookshelf when she found something odd. A small wooden-bound book with no title lay there, as if it had been deliberately left behind.
When she touched it, the cover pulsed softly, and a line of writing appeared on its surface: “Seek the silent tongue, it will show you the way.”
Livia stared at the small book in her hands, the words “Seek the silent tongue, it will show you the way” echoing in her mind.
Her gaze swept across the room, searching for something that matched the clue. In the middle of the dark room, shrouded in a fine mist, stood a magnificent statue with a calm yet frightening posture.
The statue depicted a man with a deep expression, but his mouth was hidden behind a thin, finely carved piece of cloth.
The soft light from a flickering lamp in the corner of the room reflected off the statue, highlighting the symbols carved around its lips.
Without realizing it, Livia's feet moved closer to the statue, drawn by its mysterious aura. She touched the piece of cloth covering the statue's mouth slowly, almost afraid to breathe.
The statue seemed to tremble softly under her touch. The vibration spread up her arm, making the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.
And, from inside the statue, a soft whisper, almost inaudible, said, “Blood will open the way...”
Livia gasped, the words “Blood will open the way...” echoing in her mind. Blood? Did the statue want blood? A feeling of horror ran down her spine, but at the same time, a strong sense of curiosity arose.
She remembered Cassian's message, “You are looking for answers, but be careful what you find.” Was this one of the dangers he meant?
“What is it, Livia?” asked Isolde, approaching her daughter who was standing frozen in front of the statue. “What did you find?”
Livia showed her mother the writing in the small book. “This book... it gives clues,” she said softly. “And this statue... it asks for blood.”
Isolde furrowed her brow, staring at the statue with a searching gaze. “The chosen blood,” she muttered.
She rubbed her chin, lost in thought. ‘Legend says that only the direct descendants of the founders of the Athenaeum Arcana can open the hidden seals in this place with their blood.’
Isolde's eyes sparkled as she turned to Livia. “Could it be... could we be their descendants?”
Livia felt her heart beat faster. ‘Descendants of the founders of the Athenaeum Arcana?’ The thought felt so big, so full of unimaginable possibilities.
“But how is that possible, Mother?” Livia asked, her voice trembling with tension. “We're just... we're...”
“We are the Wolf Clan, Livia,” Isolde interrupted, her voice trembling with emotion. “Their blood flows through our veins. Our history is full of secrets. It's possible...”
Dalam novel Darkness Behind the Light, tema klan serigala menjadi unsur sentral yang mengikat seluruh misteri dan intrik cerita. Saya pribadi merasa terpikat dengan bagaimana penulis menggabungkan legenda kuno dengan dinamika keluarga antara Livia dan ibunya, Isolde, yang membuat cerita ini terasa hidup dan penuh emosi. Selain ketegangan seputar buku tanpa judul dan patung yang memberi teka-teki, latar Athenaeum Arcana menambah daya tarik tersendiri sebagai tempat penyimpanan rahasia terselubung penuh nuansa mistis. Saya terkesan dengan gambaran patung berkerudung dan simbol-simbol di mulutnya yang seperti mengundang pembaca untuk ikut menebak teka-teki bersama tokoh utama. Yang tak kalah menarik adalah konflik internal yang dialami Livia ketika dirinya menyadari kemungkinan menjadi keturunan para pendiri Athenaeum Arcana. Ini membuka jalan bagi pembaca untuk menyelami tema warisan, identitas, dan tanggung jawab, yang jarang saya temukan di novel fantasi bertema klan serigala lain. Bagi yang ingin mengeksplorasi lebih jauh, novel ini juga menggambarkan bagaimana darah sebagai simbol keterikatan garis keturunan memiliki peranan penting membuka petualangan baru. Rasanya seperti memasuki dunia di mana mitos dan kenyataan bercampur, memberikan nuansa unik yang menghidupkan setiap babnya. Dari pengalaman saya membaca novel ini, Darkness Behind the Light menyajikan kisah yang tak hanya menghibur tapi juga menggugah rasa ingin tahu, khususnya bagi penggemar genre supernatural atau yang penasaran dengan legenda klan serigala dan misteri kuno. Jangan ragu untuk mencoba bacaan ini jika Anda mencari novel dengan alur mendebarkan dan penuh rahasia yang menantang pembaca untuk ikut berpikir dan bertanya.
