Since following Soshyan, Veronica rarely dreams again, and because she rarely sleeps, this dream came so suddenly.
She didn't even know when her consciousness was dragged into the dream, but suddenly violent thunder pierced the sky, and then the rain flowed down, like an endless torrent, as if the ocean was invisiblely brought to the sky, and then poured down.
Down.
For Ada, especially a former prophet, although she is only an apprentice, she knows very well that dreams are often not simple.
The sky was dark and the rain was cold. This was not an auspicious sign, but she was still new to the subject and could not independently analyze those foreboding dreams or visions.
With a click, thunder illuminated the earth
Standing in the heavy rain, Veronica looked into the distance. The jagged peaks were like black spikes, chiseling into the flashing sky, like a huge wolf fang, and the sky in the background was like a huge curtain.
, there are some huge beings fighting against each other in the thick clouds, casting their terrifying light towards the mountains at the edge of the world.
Drawn by some subconscious, Veronica began to move, climbing all the way up the stairs dug into the desolate foothills.
She found herself standing on her back as she passed a row of whitened skull poles. These skull poles were almost as tall as the Astartes. The tips of the copper poles piercing them made the topmost skull even more prominent.
, and those skulls are not human-shaped, but dog-shaped, or maybe——
Wolf.
Veronica tried to discern what this was indicating. Beasts appearing in dreams or visions were often bad omens, representing enemies and threats.
But these are not living beasts, but skeletons.
Skeletons, death, decay, warning.
If you look carefully, you can still see fire flickering inside the skulls of these beasts, giving them a vicious and ferocious vitality.
There are hundreds of sacrificial pillars like this, and they surround the mountain. Veronica seems to have broken into a stranger in some barbaric tribe, all the way up, letting the rain wet her body and hair, and take her away.
The strong wind of body temperature seemed to be driving her to see what would be on the mountain.
Another thunder rumbled across the sky, like the footsteps of gods moving across the sky. After an unknown amount of time, she reached a plateau with only rocks, which was still some distance from the top of the mountain, or even further.
Even though the rain was roaring all the time, she could still hear the crackling sound of the skull rods below getting louder and louder, and feel some rising overflowing heat pouring into the deep heart of the mountain range.
The sky rumbled and the mountains trembled and swayed, as if preparing for what was to come next.
Suddenly, Veronica felt a brutal and terrifying force. She raised her head, and a huge incandescent lightning split the sky and hit the highest peak of the mountain range. The light almost burned her eyes.
The top of the mountain exploded, its shadow disappearing into the huge debris and billowing smoke, and the debris was thrown hundreds of meters into the air.
Debris crashed down beside Veronica, shattering the hillside, but she remained unmoved. She just blinked the still-scorching afterimage of lightning in her eyes, realizing at the same time that the heavy rain had stopped, and the deafening echoes of thunder and explosions
Disappeared without a trace, leaving only her staggering figure standing alone on the top of the smashed mountain.
The Eternal Queen lowered her arms. She felt a tremor coming from the rocks of the surrounding mountains, and a similar feeling of fear and awe gripped her.
The sudden silence of the mountains after a storm was more terrifying than anything she had known before.
A creeping terror was slowly covering her consciousness. This feeling almost rose from her bones. It was a natural biological instinct of a predator.
Veronica turned around, everything made her hair stand on end.
On the way she came, towering backs undulated in the rocks, their black hair was shiny, and their sharp claws scratched the rocks to create a dense noise that shattered the mind, while the muzzle that was spat out opened and closed slightly, revealing
Sharp teeth with saliva.
Wolves, countless wolves, were staring at her with their reflective eyes.
Blinking her blurry eyes, Caveronica's attention was then attracted by a loud noise. She turned her head and saw a line of twisted black lightning-like smoke rising from the broken crater on the top of the mountain, although at this moment
Not a breath of wind dared to disturb the dark night, but the smoke was still flowing, gathered together, and slid downwards like dim light.
The mountain trembled with the footsteps of something majestic and terrifying, and the rocks were crushed into powder under its weight and power. As they approached Veronica, who almost collapsed to the ground, the malicious wave emanating from within the smoke
The light became more intense, and the horror hidden there stopped, observing her with interest like looking down at an ant.
Suddenly, the smoke cleared, revealing what was hidden inside.
It was a lone white wolf. It was so huge that it stood like a mountain in front of Veronica. Its limbs were comparable to the feet of a Titan, its head was bigger than a poison blade, and its hazy yellow eyes
With ridicule and malice, in the bloody mouth are wolf teeth that are so white that they are almost shining - they are crisscrossed and stuck with something stuck.
A huge, golden spear.
"The wolf with the spear."
Veronica's lips trembled and she whispered what she saw.
"The wolf with the spear."
"The wolf with the spear."
"The wolf with the spear."
"Veronica?"
Moving her arm, Veronica felt a warm hand on her shoulder. Then she opened her eyes and saw the confused face of Soshyan sitting next to her.
"What's wrong with you? I seemed to hear you say something when I was reading the battle report, and my breathing was a little disordered."
"nothing."
When she propped her body up with her hands, the thin blanket slipped away, revealing not even an inch of her graceful body.
Looking at his wife's pale face, Soshyan, who was wearing a robe, pulled the blanket and held her in his arms, saying softly:
"What's wrong? Have a nightmare?"
Veronica leaned against his chest to calm down for a while, then shook her head.
"We won't have so-called nightmares, everything may be a foreshadowing."
"Um?"
After that, Veronica recounted everything she saw in her dream. This is why the Eldar are different from humans. They can remember their dreams almost perfectly.
As he listened, Soshyan frowned the whole time. After all, he was not a psychic or a diviner, but he did grasp some of the key points.
"If it's a foreshadowing, it seems like the core is the wolf?"
"It's hard to say. Creatures can often be the embodiment of a certain possibility. Just like snakes, they can represent conspiracy and betrayal, and different types have different symbols. Poisonous snakes, pythons, and flying snakes all have meanings."
