Chapter 14 - The Battle of the Frozen Citadel

King Aurelius’s army struck Frosthold just as the blizzard reached its peak. The king fought at the front lines, his blade flashing as he cleaved through lines of frost-beasts to reach the citadel gates.

Suddenly, a blinding golden light shattered the top tower of the fortress. The magical chains exploded into dust as Leo broke free, his lightning scar bursting with brilliant, sun-like energy that dissolved the dark clouds overhead.

Leo leaped into the courtyard, unleashing torrents of lightning that disabled the enemy's siege engines. He rushed to his father's side just as General Corvus attempted to strike Aurelius from behind.

"Not today!" Leo roared, catching Corvus's blade with his armored gauntlet and blasting the traitor backward with a concussive shockwave.

Father and son stood shoulder-to-shoulder amidst the swirling snow and golden sparks. Aurelius smiled through the grime of battle, handing Leo a royal sidearm. Together, they carved a path straight toward Duke Boris.
