"Dragons are the most powerful of them, but the most manipulative and ambitious, they are extremely dangerous, don't let them fool you, no matter how attractive they may be, and do not let them touch your skin, the ruling house of Von Hyden is of dragons. Careful with all the kinds of wolves, they are nasty and love physical contact, they are powerful, dangerous, savages, and they could make you let your guard down around them, just to play with you and get what they want, there are five different types."
"The second strongest house after Von Hyden is Wintermere, they are the faes of fenrirwolf order, they are so much powerful and lethal than the other wolves that they are not considered shifters, they are monsters. What differs them from all the others are that the fenrirwolves are gigantic, they are as dangerous on land as dragons are on the sky, so strong that ain't many of them, and in their fae form, those fenrirwolves have canines as sharp as the fangs of a vampire, and they are said to like drinking blood."
"The other two Royal Houses that share the throne of the Kingdom ever since the Great War when those four houses played the biggest part in murdering the tyrants who ruled before, are Amblecrown and Hindergrass. Von Hyden, Wintermere, Amblecrown, and Hindergrass, this is the order of power, they may try to pretend they are on equal footing, but they ain't, and it shows. A Von Hyden was in my year the last time I was here, and he was stronger than me, stronger and older," I swallowed.
"Stronger than YOU?" They all gasped.
"Is that possible?" Rose cried in shock.
"He was possible. But maybe it was because he was the Crowned Prince of the Von Hyden back then," I stared at my nails, "and my target will probably be his son. Either way," I sighed, "the four houses are known to battle against each other, there was no Wintermere, Amblecrown, or Hindergrass in my last time here, but the record is there to prove it. They will all probably be here now, if dad is sending us in this mission, of his shadows must have sent word. Which is one more reason for me to warn you."
"The Amblecrown are faes of vampire order, which I won't say much, because that's probably the only fae order everyone here has heard about. They are as deadly as the stories say, they drink blood, use all the faes weaker then them as food, they have the ability of compelling you to do whatever they want if you stare in their eyes, so, don't stare in their eyes. They are the easiest to spot, they are as pale as I am," and I'm the only pale in the family, they are all white or tanned, "some are paler, and their pupils are wider then normal."
"Now, the Hindergrass are faes of elf order, they are more wild, literally, don't hurt animals or nature, only people, and people who hurt animals and nature, they don't eat meat, all have straight pale blonde hair, different skin tones but always the same hair in different lengths, and they use green a lot, that much is common knowledge of them. They weapon of choice is the bow and arrow, and no one is better at it than them, and they are deadly with it. Egocentric and narcissistic, they think they are the best order of the best race," I rolled my eyes.
"That applies to all their order, not just those four ruling Houses, I'm talking about them because they will be our main target. So, let's be clear? Dragons, fenrirwolves and all wolves, vampires, and elves. They may look unharmful on the outside when you see them in their fae form normally, but you have to keep in mind that they are all more than a thousand years old, and all killed people, all will kill again, they are not clean-handed and neither are we. We are not less than them, neither are we better, so, do not underestimate them."
"Now, I'll go through nobility quickly, our time in running out. So, Raven Clan. The other four orders of wolf shifters are all from the ramifications of the Raven Clan, which is divided in four houses, the most powerful clan of nobility. I'll mention them in order of power," I sat down again, as they were all sat around me.
"Uh, why do they get separated in clans?" Rose asked.
"Each clan has from four to two houses, all that were initially one but was branches millennials ago, now they are ramified, but the union as clans keep their power tight up together, they compete between them but are a union against others. Now back to the Raven clan. Ravenhorn are bat-wolf shifters, huge black wolves with even huger wings, wind magic as a must. Ravenmar are winter-wolf shifters, huge white wolves all having ice magic as a must and with thicker fur. Ravenrein are summer-wolf shifters, golden-furred wolf shifters with fire magic as a must and with shorter fur."
"Why are there summer and winter wolves?" Minnie asked.
"No idea. The Ravencrom House is of forest-wolf shifters, the ones with different shades of brown fur, earth magic as a must. The second noble clan it's the Whit Clan, made of three houses, all archangels, the more wings they have, the stronger they are. The Whitfields are eight-winged and all have thunder magic, the Whitwoods are six-winged and all have wind magic, now the Whitweavers are four-winged and have water magic. All other archangels aside from the ones related to the Whit Clan, have two wings, some rare ones outside them have four to six, but never eight!"
"Eight wings?" Khan cringed, "That sounds horrifying."
"Can they hide it like we do with ours?" Kara asked.
"No. The only winged kinds capable of hiding their wings are demons, dragons, and all the winged-animal shifters, such as the bat-wolves for an instance, and the hawk shifters for an obvious one. Archangels, fairies, and pegasus can't, all the pegasus can shift is their body, the wings stay."
"Alright, that will make it easier to spot," Kara said.
"Now, the Ridge Clan. Witchlings. Easy peasy, we know about them around here," they all nodded. "Natheridges are dark witchling, Fallenridges are light witchlings, and Moonridges are green witchlings. You can spot a witch," I raised my right hand upside down, curling my fingers, "by the magical taint that it leaves on all their fingers. Dark magic causes a dark purple to black taint, light magic causes a light grey to white taint, while green magic causes a light to dark green taint. They won't hide, they are all proud of it, you will spot it."
My eyes went to the watch in my wrist and I cursed. "Our time is ending, fuck."
