Even nine years later, Arvin never uncovered his true surname or background. Instead, he embraced the present and used his skills to build a new life for himself. He accepted Victoria's earlier offer and became a scout, spy, and occasional envoy for her—often slipping between cities like Spellwhisk, Velvetglade, and Leonaport Bay, working behind the scenes. Arvin still possesses the mysterious, magical stone he discovered—a Lumina, more commonly known as a Moonstone. He remained extremely cautious about who learned of its existence.

Ginny returned with her father Alder to Leonaport Bay, where they decided to rebuild their family home and open a new apiary, continuing the family business. The two decided to invest the thousand gold-pieces new technology by a dwarven inventor, who based their technology on an the existing Thalga Fyreward's Shield of the Oasis. This turned out to have been a smart decision! As their investment lead to an even bigger apiary than they could've dreamed of.

Ginny's life was never the same after that mission—her bees never returned. Even ten years later, she never discovered what had happened to them. She remained in contact with Belinda Vanderlee, especially after her father and Belinda formed a fateful bond over their shared love of bees.

Alaric’s future was shaped by a growing sense of dread—nightmares of wolffolk dying. These haunting dreams drove him to quit the Voidbreakers too. He used the gold to start a simpler life and became a blacksmith in Howlstead.

At first, the business struggled, and Alaric not being the smartest with gold lead to him getting screwed over a lot in the beginning, but things took a turn when he reunited with Ruby of Fenrisblut. She pulled a few strings, and before long, the two were married. Alaric’s business began to thrive, which also lead to Alaric and Ruby having two sons.

But when tragedy finally struck, it mirrored the very nightmare that had plagued Alaric. Ruby, along with her sister Opal, died during the Moonhowl Bloodbath in 245 A.T.C, leaving Alaric a widowed father. Circumstances led him to adopt Opal's surviving daughter as well. Alaric and the three pups eventually moved from Howlstead to Howl’s Edge—he could no longer bear to stay in the family-home he and Ruby had built together.
