Still Hubrim.
"How much would you charge our two from here to Irala."
Lao Tzu asked.
"Ikpala, bro."
Jimin corrected.
"Yes, Ikpala. How much?"
Well he wasn't the one to pay the fare but he was all over the price. How crazy that was.
"151 Aureus."
The boatman said. Though twas a boat, but the form of the boat was satisfying. They wouldn't have to be worried about being hit by a wave or something close to that.
The sides of the boat were towering, it sure would swallow the weight of all of them. Including the man in charge.
Jimin had been the one doing the speculation of the odds of surviving the boat.
"How would you manage this huge thing on the waves."

"Is he also with you? He seems restless. And I do not deem the restless folks fit for my attention." The sorcerer said sharing his gaze between the boatman and Jimin. Twas hard to tell who he was referring to in precision. Jimin was about to talk when Tzu hopped on the discourse in his place, "He is our rider. He's with us. But we could make him stay outside if he should bother any further." "Let him stay. He seems old enough to tame the wild part of him. And if he doesn't, I might be forced to cast a spell on him." The sorcerer added. Jim was getting fed up of the tale of the man. He almost spilled the mud. The boatman was seated beside him. He had no idea why he had made that mistake. Tzu was seating opposite them and the sorcerer was standing at their front before the throne. The boatman pinched him by the

The Kingdom of Kula. "You won't stay here forever." The sorcerer said, pacing the room. He stopped for a while and acted as though he just remembered something. He resumed the spree. "How about the boatman?" Jimin asked, trying to draw an inference. The old man stopped again and gave a stare of intimidation to Jim. Jim didn't bite from such chops. "Thought you were not in good terms." Twas rather a scorn than an answer. Jim dragged in a loop of air and shot back, "Yes, we WERE not." The man began to walk towards where they were seated. "Get up." He said looking at Jim, but he meant the two of them. Jim thought for a while that the man was trying to make a payback.

The Kingdom of Havila. "Get the fuck off me." Tzu said, meaning to hurl Jim away from him if twas possible. Jim fought himself free. He started pressing his hands to his robe as though he had lost something. Few of the market fellows took interest in them in the first place, but seemed to had lost it. "Do they have a thing for strangers too?" Tzu asked Jim. Jim wore him out with the how-would-you-expect-me-to-know kinda ogle. "Aiiieee" They heard from behind them. A man was pushing a wooden barrow behind them trying to pass through. They hopped off the road. Jim to the right, Tzu to the left. They had been standing in the middle of the road. They could see the huge gate of the city several metres away from them.

Still Havila. "Get the fuck off me." Jim struggled in vain as some guards from nowhere grabbed to restrain him. He was quite strong enough and was able to yank himself off the two. He had no idea where the strength came from. But then he heard Tzu calling, "Is that what you want? Is this how you want to get the revenge?" Jim slowed down and stood before Lailah. He was fueling but what Tzu had said seemed to have the best of him. Tzu hurried to where Jim was and whispered into his ear, "Amongst what you heard deep in your consciousness, was there such thing as ambush?" Jim shook his head free and eyed Tzu with detest. He hated Tzu. Tzu was always the coward in the name of observing some godforsaken rules and probably ethics. Ethics for such crazy lady.<
Lailah: The Milestone The Emperor of Rome knows about Lailah?
"Who are you three?" The Roman Emperor's voice was husky, refined and polished. His accent wasn't all well spoken of, but at least, even the deaf could make a meaning of it. Jim looked at his two brothers who were by his right and left. The three of them were kneeling before the throne. Jim thought that one of them should speak to the Emperor. Even though he knew not what to say. "I'm sure you do not want that repeated?" The Emperor's voice came again. Ja cleared his throat of the lumps of confusion. He was going to speak when Jim snatched the medium, "Nymph hunters." He said. Ja looked at him. More of a are-you-insane kinda of gaze. Tzu had his eyes all glued to the Emperor on the throne. Behind the three of them were numerous chiefs who had come
Lailah: The Milestone Poseidon?
"Is it Lailah?" Ja called at Loe who was quite faster than the three of them. Loe had caught up with the warriors as soon as they all alighted from the chariot. There were few other warriors already circling the lady who was threatening to hurl the Helmet of Jin inside the water. She was quite close to the lapping waves. Majority of the warriors had their legs dipped into the waves without looking behind. Even if the crazy lady hurl the helmet, some of them would make sure to catch. Ja and his siblings, alongside the other fellows got to Loe who was staring blankly at the lady. Ja looked at Loe's face before looking away to the lady. Twas the look of surprise on his face. He looked towards the lady, twasnt Lailah. That was a relief, but twas that lady Loe had been betrothed to in Ikpala. Twas
Lailah: The Milestone Poseidon and the three Warriors
Somewhere in the depth of the ocean. "Hui hak hajan a" That was the gibberish one of the three guys heard. He wasn't sure if the two others rolling alongside him in the hollow meant to say something. They had been like that since goodness knew when. They had been rolling and screaming down the hollow. The torrent of the depth of the ocean was tuning and twas becoming suicidal. The warrior who thought he had heard a thing tried to hold unto the person next to him, but he couldn't. He missed the catch. It seemed as though his hand came out at the other side in the fellow's body. Then suddenly, the turmoil began to subside. The tumbling and rolloing hollow which seemed to had been crashing against huge rocks knew sanity. There was peace and quiet. But the h
Lailah: The Milestone The Raven
"We've searched all through the waters as much as we could, yet nothing to show for." The leader of the warriors who was bowing before the Emperor said. His face was down, but you could tell that he was very sensitive to any call about to be made by the ruler. "To what depth of the waters did you delve?" The Emperor asked. The fellow hesitated for a while then said, "I can't be sure. We didn't have a means of measuring it, but we did all we could." He kept emphasizing that point. He knew quite well that the Emperor was never satisfied. He always would find an excuse to owe their incompetence to. Well, they weren't incompetent, twas simply that, the Emperor was never satisfied. "Did you go over to the other side of the sea? That which we came through?" The Emperor's voice was becoming stiffen
