Meanwhile, inside the Whispering Cove, the main room was spacious and airy, illuminated by the warm glow of lanterns hung from the ceiling, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Simple wooden furniture, carved with tribal motifs, dotted the room, providing seating for meetings and discussions.
Within this room, Asher sat at the head of a long, rough-hewn wooden table, surrounded by his old and new subordinates. Shadows danced along the walls as candlelight flickered, casting an eerie glow over the faces of those gathered.
Seated to Asher's right was Darren Aliester, a vampire from the influential House Aliester, known for their expertise in the enchantment arts.
He was not the eldest son, but he was a prodigy in enchantment, mastering spells at a pace that left his peers in awe. His House was the vassal of House Thorne and was their main source of enchanted weapons, contracts, and so on.
