Chapter 08: WYVERN CLAN ALLIANCE

Dorian and Lyra traversed the rugged landscape towards Wyvern Clan territory. 

As they approached the clan's stronghold – a fortified citadel carved into the mountainside – 

Kaelin Darkhunter emerged, her piercing blue eyes narrowing slightly.

"Lyra Eldrida's apprentice," Kaelin said. "And the last Eldrid scion. What brings you to our lands?"

Lyra stepped forward:

"Kaelin, old friend – we seek alliance against Korvus. Will your clan stand with us?"

Kaelin's gaze locked onto Dorian:

"I owe Lyra a debt, but your cause requires clan consensus."

She led them into the citadel's great hall, where Wyvern Clan elders and warriors gathered.

Dorian began his plea:

"Honored elders and warriors of Wyvern Clan, Korvus threatens Tenebrous with darkness. My bloodline holds the key to stopping him. 

I've wielded ancient magic in battle – magic that could aid our alliance."

Elder Thoric Stonefist scrutinized Dorian:

"What proof offers that your magic still flows strong?"

Lyra intervened:

"I've seen him summon powerful spells, Elder Thoric. His potential is undeniable."

Dorian raised his hands, and a soft blue glow erupted around them – a spark of his divine magic.

The Wyvern Clan elders exchanged impressed glances.

Kaelin Darkhunter nodded decisively:

"By the claws of our ancestors, we ally with Dorian Eldrid. What strategy shall we employ against Korvus?"

The elders and warriors cheered in agreement, sealing the alliance.

Dorian smiled grimly:

"Our next move: recruit the Moonwhisper Elves..."

Lyra nodded:

"Their archers would bolster our forces significantly. Shall we send an envoy or go ourselves?"
