In the peaceful interlude, Alicia's words resonated deeply within the resistance and their allies, fostering a spirit of unity and hope. The memory restoration for humans bridged the gap between the past and present, encouraging a future where supernaturals and humans could coexist in harmony.
The leadership reflected on the new alliances and the challenges ahead. Alicia and Agatha, recognizing the importance of unity and the strength of their diverse allies, continued to foster hope and resilience among their followers. As the resistance fortified their defenses and trained their new recruits, they remained ever vigilant, aware that the battle for peace and survival was far from over. The legacy of the O'Haras, intertwined with the histories of the supernaturals and humans, stood as a symbol of their collective struggle and determination to forge a better future.
Meanwhile, in Clair's domain, Dracula watched over the recovering Clair and Veronica, placing them in separate quarters. Hours later, Veronica was the first to regain consciousness. She made her way to Clair's quarters, finding Dracula gently stroking Clair's hair with a mixture of compassion and regret in his eyes. Veronica questioned Dracula about how long she had been out cold, but he didn't respond. Her attention shifted to Clair, who was still unconscious in bed. Veronica took Clair's hand with warmth, passion, and concern for her well-being.
As Veronica stood by Clair's side, faded memories from the battlefield began to resurface. She vividly recalled the incident, the fierce battle, and the fury of Stella's power. Vengeance filled her eyes as she realized the extent of the injuries inflicted upon her and her mistress by the resistance.
"I'll take over watching her," Veronica said firmly.
Dracula gave a solemn nod and left the room. Once alone, Veronica vowed to the unconscious Clair, her voice low and filled with determination. "I will make things right. I swear vengeance against the resistance for what they've done to us."
Dracula, meanwhile, went to the children's quarters. Clair had placed them under a hibernation and protection spell before the war. Dracula undid the spell, reviving the children. As they awoke and saw him, they embraced him with love, and he mirrored their affection, blood tears dripping from his eyes.
He held them close, feeling the weight of his past actions and the promise of a different future. The children, unaware of the full extent of the recent turmoil, found comfort in his presence. Dracula, now aware of his responsibilities and the path he must tread, felt a renewed sense of purpose. Having restored his children from hibernation, continued to watch over them with a renewed sense of purpose. He knew that the future held many challenges, but he was determined to guide his children through the turmoil ahead.
Back in Clair's quarters, Veronica kept vigil, her heart hardened with resolve. She knew that the days ahead would be filled with challenges, but her loyalty to Clair and her desire for retribution fueled her spirit. The battle might have paused, but the war was far from over, and she was ready to face whatever came next with unyielding determination.
As time passed, Clair, now fully recovered but slightly weakened, was informed by Veronica of the significant changes in the outside world. Learning that the Jacobs family had allied with the resistance and that some of their minions had joined this alliance enraged Clair. Veronica also detailed the rapid growth of the resistance, now a thriving community under the leadership of the guardians' heirs and Stella's wisdom.
The story continues with the rise of new supernaturals born from the existing mystical beings. Elves mated with sprites, giving rise to pixies, harpies and the Nymphs, who are nature spirits associated with water, forests, grottos, wind, and more. Nymphs, being powerful magic and spell users, also have the ability to shape-shift and sometimes love to take the form of sea creatures such as mermaids, mermen, or merwolves (mermaid wolves). They can also take the form of sirens, using their enchanting voices to lure and mesmerize. Gnomes and Orcs gave rise to Hobbits. Hobbits and Trolls gave rise to Dwarves. Elves sometimes clash with Dwarves. Goblins and Giants increased their numbers within their species.
Stella, along with the other guardians, found love and had children to carry on their legacy. Stella's heart found solace in a human, and she bore a daughter named Sarah. Alicia, in gratitude to Stella for her past help, trained Sarah both before and after Stella's passing. Sarah was also educated by her mother and became proficient in magic, learning to inscribe Alicia's visions of the future and prophecies into tablets. This was done with Alicia's aid by fusing magic with Sarah's divination abilities to achieve the result. Alicia wanted to ease the burden of revealing the future and prophecies through her clairvoyance, rather than displaying them for all to see, and thus made Sarah Lance the caretaker of that responsibility. This honor made Sarah the guardian of prophecy, inspiring her to create the Wicca Sabbat, the birthplace of all witches and wizards. She also conjured the Pytaminc through magical incantations, making its members the keepers of the ancient tablet stones of prophecy.
Agatha found love and bore a daughter named Hannah. Alicia, too, found love and had a child named Sharlene. To ensure the protection of fairies from preying eyes, Alicia created a magical gateway—a portal that shifted locations unpredictably and could only be seen by fairies.
The Jacobs family lineage also flourished. Dave, Thomas, and Diane found love and had children, whose offspring continued to expand the family line. Dave, Thomas, and Diane died in heated battles, while Chris and Bianca passed peacefully of old age before the war. Stephanie had a son named Isaac before her tragic death in battle. She passed down her knowledge to Isaac, who in turn had a son named Sam. Sam inherited the omega wolf form and was the father of Josh, who married Beatrice and had a daughter named Charlie. Charlie inherited not only the omega wolf state but also every aspect of Stephanie's lycanthropy transformation that awaited her in future adventures. Josh Adams Jacobs met his demise while protecting his family.
Veronica also informed Clair that a new faction, known as the Hunters, had emerged within the resistance to protect humans. This group, composed of willing humans trained and created by Agatha Wise herself, played a crucial role in the ongoing conflict.
The story introduces the lineage of the finest hunter passed down through generations. Among these hunters, the first was Judah O'Hara, who caught Agatha's attention and marked the beginning of a lineage that would significantly impact the resistance.
The O'Hara lineage included notable figures such as Lateef O'Hara, who begat Ellie O'Hara. Ellie, in turn, had Judah O'Hara, from whom came Paul O'Hara, a valiant hunter who fell in battle. Paul fathered Claire O'Hara, who bore Lafayette O'Hara before succumbing to illness. Lafayette was trained by the council of supernaturals and armed with magical potions capable of taking down supernaturals. However, his story took a dark turn with his treason against the council, a tale to be unraveled as the story progressed.
Lafayette's legacy continued with his son, Tyler O'Hara, who was left to wander alone for twenty-five years following Lafayette's demise in battle. Tyler was discovered and raised by a kind farmer, who later died at the hands of a Lycan during a hunting expedition. The farmer saved Tyler by pushing him off a high cliff into a waterfall, where he was rescued by another human named Jasper. Jasper raised Tyler until his own death from illness.
As Tyler grew older, he learned about his lineage and developed a deep-seated hatred for supernaturals, vowing to avenge the deaths of his loved ones. He became one of the greatest hunters to ever live, training others, including a formidable hunter named Xara. Eventually, Tyler gave up on vengeance and decided to aid the supernaturals in the coming war, dedicating himself to protecting his family and forging alliances for a greater cause. (This piece of information could be found in Omega book I).
Clair, filled with a mixture of anger and determination, listened as Veronica laid out these developments. Veronica described how the resistance had thrived, their numbers bolstered by newfound alliances and the strategic wisdom of Stella and the guardians. The rise of the Hunters and the unification of humans and supernaturals under the resistance presented a significant threat. She spoke of Sarah's rise as the guardian of prophecy and the creation of the Wicca Sabbat and Pytaminc.
As Clair absorbed this information, her thoughts turned to vengeance and reclaiming her power. The world had changed dramatically, and new alliances had formed that threatened her dominion. She knew that to counter this growing force, she needed to muster all her remaining strength and devise a new strategy.
Meanwhile, Veronica's resolve to exact vengeance against the resistance and protect Clair burned brighter than ever. Clair prepares to wage another war after a year of wasted time. Veronica also informs Clair about their spies implanted in the resistance stronghold, feeding them information needed to destroy the resistance.
Hearing Clair's diabolical plan, Dracula knew he had to act swiftly. He secretly performed an incantation to alert Stella and the guardians about Clair’s intention to consume the lifeforce of their descendants for ultimate empowerment. Stella received the message and immediately set about fortifying their defenses and preparing for the impending invasion.
The battle that followed was brutal and lasted for centuries, filled with bloodshed and loss. Stella and her allies fought valiantly but ultimately met their end. In a climactic confrontation, Alicia and Sarah combined their powers to unleash a devastating scream known as the Fawich scream, a powerful ability Alicia had renamed after witnessing Stella Lance use it. This scream was potent enough to end Veronica's life and gravely injure Clair, slowing her healing process significantly.
Clair, now partially healed and retreating with her remaining minions, felt the sting of betrayal and defeat. Dracula, having taken his daughters away from Clair's domain to the resistance stronghold, became a key ally in the newly formed council of supernaturals. Clair, still weak but filled with fury, ordered her minions to retrieve her children, planning to use their abilities to restore her strength. However, she was devastated to learn that her children had disappeared.

When news reached her that Dracula had sided with the resistance and taken some of her minions with him, Clair was driven to madness. She pieced together the puzzle and realized that Lucifer was no longer in possession of Dracula’s body. Seeking answers, she attempted to commune with the forces of hell, only to discover from the demons that Lucifer’s astral form had been destroyed.
Sitting on her throne, Clair asked about Veronica, only to be told that she was dead. The news shattered her heart, and she lacked the strength to revive Veronica with her blood. Soon, more spies reported back with news of the resistance's new plans and the formation of the council of supernaturals.
Clair, now fully aware of her situation and the formidable alliance of her enemies, began devising a new plot. Her mind raced with schemes to counter the council of supernaturals, knowing she needed to be more cunning and ruthless than ever before.
In the meantime, the council of supernaturals, strengthened their defenses and trained their new recruits. They knew Clair was a relentless adversary who would stop at nothing to reclaim power. The council’s unity and determination were their greatest strengths, and they vowed to protect their world and their loved ones from Clair's malevolent plans.
Dracula, now a trusted member of the council, played a crucial role in guiding and strategizing for the battles ahead. His betrayal of Clair was a significant turning point, and his loyalty to the resistance bolstered their morale.
As the resistance prepared for the next phase of their struggle, they remained ever vigilant, knowing that peace was fragile and the battle against darkness was far from over. They drew strength from their unity, their ancestors’ sacrifices, and their unwavering commitment to a brighter future.
As Clair's spies continued to lurk within the resistance fortress, they stumbled upon a groundbreaking discovery: the council members of the supernaturals had combined their powers to create a weapon of unparalleled strength. This weapon, known as the beta sword, had the ability to permanently kill and revive a supernatural being. Inspired by Agatha's ingenuity, the council also crafted a legendary talisman from the remaining portions of blood, intending to use it as a safeguard against the forces of darkness.
Unbeknownst to the council, one of Clair's spies had surreptitiously placed an attraction spell on one of the blood portions used to create the guardians of the artifacts. This spell would later affect one of the guardians, Rita Wood, sister to Elijah Wood.
Rita, a being of mixed heritage—half witch, half werewolf, and half vampire—was formed from the blood of Sarah Lance, Isaac Adams Jacobs, and Victor Dracula Stone. Elijah, her counterpart, was a blend of fairy, therianthropy, and human blood from Alicia East, Helen Hathaway, and Agatha Wise.
Meanwhile, Lafayette O'Hara, armed with knowledge gleaned from his ancestors and the council of supernaturals, grew increasingly suspicious of a mole within their ranks. He urged the council to take swift action against the IMPERISHABLES, fearing their imminent attack. Frustrated by the council's hesitance, Lafayette took matters into his own hands, leading a group of hunters to infiltrate the enemy's stronghold.
However, Lafayette's mission ended in tragedy, with his entire army falling in battle, and he himself barely escaping with his life. Unbeknownst to him, Rita Wood, in league with Clair's spies, had orchestrated the ambush.
Upon receiving news of Lafayette's dire situation, the council dispatched additional hunters to aid him. Discovering Lafayette gravely injured, they brought him back to their fortress for medical attention.
Despite his heroic intentions, Lafayette was accused of treason for defying the council's orders. He was imprisoned and scheduled to face trial the following day. Meanwhile, Rita Wood seized the opportunity to steal the legendary talisman and vanish with Clair's spies to their domain, where they used the talisman to resurrect Veronica, further escalating the conflict.
Meanwhile, Lafayette, imprisoned and despondent, received an unexpected visitor. Agatha, now elderly and confined to a wheelchair, had come to see him. Her presence, though frail, carried a weight of understanding. She spoke with Lafayette, acknowledging the necessity of his actions but also pointing out the flaws in his rash decisions. Lafayette, initially stubborn, found reason in Agatha's words. As their conversation drew to a close, he admitted his mistakes and apologized sincerely.
Not long after, Agatha received distressing news: the talisman had been stolen.
As night fell, a council meeting was convened in the elder chambers. Dracula, who had been training with his children, was summoned. The council discussed their next steps against Clair and her minions. They realized that Rita Wood had been corrupted and had stolen the legendary talisman. Dracula, deeply worried about his daughter, voiced his concerns about the prophecy, which tormented him.
Adding to their troubles was the fact that they were unable to locate the last descendant of Michael. Agatha had installed mental blocks to forget the location, preventing Clair, Veronica, or other supernatural beings from extracting the information from her. However, before doing so, she entrusted the secret location to Elijah Wood, the Guardian of the Beta Sword.
During the council's discussion, Dracula sensed Emma spying on them. He approached her and, catching her as she stumbled, embraced her with a compassion that belied his fearsome reputation. Blood streamed from his eyes, followed by black tears, as he erased her memories. Despite this, Emma's resistance allowed her to retain fragments of what she had seen. Witnessing this, Elijah Wood promised Dracula he would protect and train his daughters, preparing them for the unknown threats that loomed ahead.
(A detailed account of these events can be found in "Omega: Book 1, Chapter 9 - Faith or Fate.")
The next day, Lafayette O'Hara stood before the council of supernaturals to face judgment. Unhappy with the council's decision, he lashed out in a fit of rage, vehemently voicing his theories about the inevitable. Despite his passionate pleas, the council's verdict was carried out. Victor Dracula Stone stripped Lafayette of his position as a hunter, leaving him disgraced.
Just as the matter concluded, their stronghold was invaded. An army of the IMPERISHABLES, led by Veronica and allied with Rita Wood, launched a fierce attack against the first order of supernaturals and their armies. The battle was brutal, with Clair aiding her minions from afar. Veronica, now immensely powerful, seemed invincible. Her confrontation with Victor Dracula Stone was particularly intense.
Victor sought to redeem Veronica, whose heart was hardened by hatred toward him for betraying Clair. Their interaction was a volatile mix of regret and animosity.
"You should never have betrayed Mother. You are weak, Victor, unfit to rule. Siding with the enemy is a blasphemy to our shared experiences. Once, I looked up to you as the Alpha king, but not anymore. Those who defy Mother will meet their end," Veronica spat, her voice dripping with venom.
As the battle reached its zenith, Dracula, the father of all vampires, made the ultimate sacrifice for peace. He was killed alongside Veronica with the Beta Sword, wielded by Elijah Wood. This act marked the end of both Veronica and Dracula. The battlefield was left in chaos, with Veronica's lifeless body mysteriously absent, retrieved by Rita Wood after locking eyes with Elijah Wood.
The once peaceful alliance disintegrated, seeds of division and chaos having taken root. The factions splintered into clans and colonies, turning against each other. This era marked Veronica's resurrection and the separation of Martha Hathaway from Karl Carl Hathaway. Many supernaturals went into hiding, their existence becoming mere myth, known only as the lost supernaturals. While some fought for a peaceful existence, others sought power in the shadows, their ambitions corrupting absolutely even the most noble causes.
Elijah Wood, now the guardian of the Beta Sword, the secret location of the last descendants of Michael, and Victor Dracula Stone's heirs, fulfilled Dracula's final wish. As time passed, Liliana and Emma proved themselves worthy, venturing out on their own while Elijah watched over them from the shadows.
Liliana and Emma's bond deepened, especially after Emma befriended Bella Grace, forging a lasting friendship. Liliana, aware of the truth about their family, took it upon herself to try to convince their mother, Clair, to change her ways. While spying on Clair, Liliana hired an assassin vampire named Dante Fowler to keep an eye on Emma, ensuring her safety without revealing the full truth to her. Liliana let Emma believe she was simply a tourist, trusting that Emma's bond with Bella would provide support and stability.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Veronica received a forewarning from a young witch named Nicki. Through divination, Nicki and her companions foresaw the rise of an ambitious man willing to do whatever it took to leave his mark on the world. Intrigued, Veronica observed the charming and stunning young man from afar. Approaching him from the shadows, she presented an irresistible proposal. The man, introducing himself as Marcus Brian, a werewolf and ex-hunter, accepted her offer. As they shook hands, a powerful connection surged between them, marking the beginning of a story filled with love, power, and conquest.
"Marcus Brian," Veronica said with a smile, "welcome to the other side."
This pivotal moment set the stage for the unfolding drama in Omega: Book I. Transitioning to Omega: Book II, Chapter 2, "Desire," we find Azriel high in the clouds at night, gazing upon the magnificent view of the city. Memories of her past actions flooded her mind. When she finally opened her eyes, they were filled with more hatred for Earth than ever before, and she vanished into the night.
Some time later, at the Adams' new residence in a suburban area, Charlie went hunting with her mother, Beatrice, and her uncle Sam in the woods. In her Omega wolf form, Charlie effortlessly hunted down multiple lions and wild beasts. However, during their hunt, they sensed a strange aura nearby, hinting at new challenges and mysteries to come.
