As the night wore on and the Dark Season enveloped Silverwoods in its nocturnal embrace, Hailey's home became a sanctuary of warmth and safety. The group settled in for the night, finding solace in each other's presence as they sought respite from the tumultuous events that had unfolded.

Unbeknownst to them, Nina quietly slipped away to make a clandestine call to Adam's father, seeking answers to the enigma of Felix's return and transformation.

In the quiet hours before dawn, as Silverwoods lay shrouded in darkness and whispered secrets, Hailey and her friends drifted into restless sleep, their dreams haunted by visions of ancient pacts and impending battles.

Little did they know, the arrival of Felix and the mysteries surrounding his return heralded the dawn of a new chapter—one filled with revelations that would test their bonds and challenge their perceptions of reality.

And amidst the labyrinthine depths of Silverwoods, where shadows danced and echoes lingered, the stage was set for a confrontation that would determine the fate of not just Hailey and her friends, but the very fabric of the supernatural world they inhabited.
