Swatting her away, I say, "I have no more time for the tricks of you snakes!"Pouting, she says, "I have no tricks, I would have you know that I just hate waste, and right now you're wasting your life.""It's none of your business how I live my life.""But my Faoláin blood is just commanding me to fix the misalignment in front of me."Turning to her, I say, "Faoláin blood?"Getting close to me again, she says, "My mother was a Faoláin, the wife of Bricriu.""That's impossible all of the Faoláin's except for Lugh were killed!"Dancing around like a fairy, "She was a woman named Airmedh a beautiful warrior who despite her gender was poised to be the next head of the Faoláin's for a time. The Faoláin head at the time cared very little for tradition. He favoured results. and she had many.Before Medb came there was a good chance she would be the first woman to ever be in charge of one of the four providences, and while many opposed this, many thought it made her the most precious jewel in

He was a rough and harsh man who cared only for himself the entire night. I had learned to wait through it when it came to people like him with a smile.He mumbled countless things to inflate himself as many others did, and I just responded with confirmation and an accepting face as I always did, but then he randomly came to a stop and asked me one question, "Am I better than my brother?"The face he gave me as he said this wasn't one of arrogance or pride, it wasn't one of a man looking for some sick pleasure in taking the woman who his brother sees as property, it was that of a man who was one moment away from breaking down.Seeing his expression I was shocked to silence and didn't answer his question which caused him to tear up and say, "I knew it, even in this moment I can still never beat him at anything."He collapsed in on me and started crying. I don't know if it was the shock of the situation or an instinct buried deep within me, but when I saw this man cry like he had just r

I sent the kids to bed and stayed awake all night waiting for him in our bed, eventually, he strolled back in, and I instantly moved towards him.Cambell was covered in wounds, so I ran up to him and asked, "What happened?"As I came up to him, I grabbed whatever I could see to put over his wounds, but he shouted, "DON'T TOUCH ME!" And swiped me away.Then he got up and started walking."Cambell, please let me help you!""If you want to help me, stay away and keep your daughter away from me as well. The only reason you get to stay here is because I need you so that my wage stays up, Ferdiad future is all that matters now."I freeze and stop momentarily, then say, "Minagrain is your-."He throws a bowl at the floor beside me then says, "Don't lie to me anymore, or I might just kill you."Cambell moves into our room and locks the door, and I just move beside it then start to cry while whimpering, "Sorry."Our days got harsher from then on.Minagrain and Ferdiad came into the house cryin

Once we exit the staircase, he stops and takes many deep breaths as if he is about to collapse, and says, "Why?""It's because-." My tongue starts to feel tied, and I lose the ability to say anything.So Ferdiad says, "I didn't even know we had an area like this. You had to have had it custom built, and you used it, for a man like that! A man who hates you and beats you, he is a demon wearing human clothing!""NO! That is not true, your father didn't do anything wrong I did.""DID HE BEAT THE SENSE OUT OF YOU! Mother, he tried to kill you, kill me, kill Minagrain? Does this not make sense to you, he is a coward who allowed his brother to use you like a tool and then complained about it!""How do you know about that?""I wasn't a fool Mom; I watch and listen to see why my parents started hating each other. I know Mom, I know about Minagrains birth, and I am sure she does as well.""It was my fault for sleeping with that man.""That doesn't explain him trying to kill both me and Minagra

With Konrad, I spent years working and learning all he had to offer along with my peers. Inside that workshop we were not human and slaves, we were not strong and weak, we were equals with one another and for the first time in my life I could laugh alongside others.Our little family continued to grow because after every sale Konrad would bring another slave or human to our workshop, and say, "This is our new member, work them to death."Each of them where completely different than the last, but despite all of their differences they all had one similar trait, the fact that their eyes looked like they had given up on life.Despite his demeanour, and harsh tongue Konrad was a man who was as soft as a cloud, and all of us wished we could have laid on it for the rest of our lives.But peace is something easily taken from someone, and in exchange all that is left is chaos.Many didn't like the idea that so many of us slaves were being brought to a place where they weren't under watchful ey

During our first invasion into the eastern continent our forces managed to push themselves incredibly far into the humans' land completely decimating them beyond belief, but a few years into the destruction, the individual groups of humans united under one banner.It was unlike anything we had ever faced before, and soon the beastkin were forcefully pushed out of the eastern continent, and the humans even attacked into our land as retribution.This was the first giant loss the beastkin had ever faced, and the damage it did not only to our pride but to our people was immense, and on the war-thorn battlefields of our land, I found a young boy. He cried over the bodies of his parents, who had the animals aspects of their bodies craved out by the humans.I picked him up and asked, "What is your name?""Ciarán.""I see. Remember this Ciarán, from today you will never grieve like this again."During this period, I had gone out to many different destroyed battlefields and had taken any of th

Sweating, I ask, "What is it?"With a smile on his face, Bricriu says, "Let's not start off with such a heavy topic. Right now, what interests me the most is that new brooch of yours, It looks nice."This man truly is a pest, who I wish I could rid myself of, but right now he has quite a bit of power over me, so I might as well play along. "Yes. I got me and my wife new gemstones from our 2nd eldest during his wedding, so I make it into ornaments for us.""They look quite pretty. Your son has a great eye.""I agree.""He has come an awfully long way before Brían used to struggle to keep up with other people socially, but he has grown enough to even get married. It brings tears to my old eyes."No one is prouder than me and my wife.""Though it would be a shame if all of it came crashing down."I tense up, and say, "I doubt anything could bring me down from this position in my life, especially since I have the untouchable snake at my side.""Well, even I have my limits when faced with
Legacies of light Arc 10.118: Ellén Trechend part 2
Location: The grand Library of RathcroghanΦ As I land at the bottom of the hill, I stare at the wonderbeast known as the Ellén Trechand. A three-headed beast with wings made of copper red flowers that scatter throughout the area.It lies in the middle of a river with a large town built around it, and within it. The wonderbeast is completely integrated with the city, almost like it was made for this.Amazed by all of this I keep moving forward until I reach the main entrance, and standing outside it I say, "Now what am I going to do first?"Suddenly one of the giant heads of the Ellén looks down at me and starts to scream, and the other two heads stretch from its body and come down right next to me.All those around Ellén and me have shocked expressions, and I prepare to hit the giant head of the 60-meter beast, yet I know it would be pointless to try.From each of its three heads, I see blood rush into their mouths that suddenly turns gold as it lights ablaze. I quickly prepare to mo

-Break-Φ In all of Gorias providence, there isn't a single native or visitor who isn't current in one place.Throughout the city, Druids have gathered together. Many of them wear the crest of the Faoláins, but far more are wearing the crests of each house of the Red branch, including the royal house itself.And under the instruction of Fráech and Findabair, they all say, "Beast blood battle arts; Fás."Which is quickly followed by, "Beast blood battle arts; Bog."Soon a series of giant plants set throughout Gorias grow and, the most important of them which are located near Gorias castle move into shape where they form three large platforms made of plants which are placed on top of each other from biggest to smallest.The bottom and biggest of these three platforms takes up a large portion of the castle of Gorias city, with the other two being smaller, but also extremely large as well.The druid using Bog continues to move and mould the platforms until a staircase is made leading from

In his hands is a basket, but I soon skip over it as seeing Lugh all dressed up does many things to both my mind and my body,His beautiful face is both mature and effeminate, but the aura of his body and his wounds give the impression of a hardened warrior. His muscles which show in his clothes, enrapture my eyes and never let them go.The heavenly smell of his silver hair crushes my nose, and his heavy voice which ties it all together slays my ears. Right now, he is more seductive than any man of the night, and should be locked up for indecency.Covering my eyes, I scream, "THANK YOU!"Aimee then gets up to Lugh's face, and says, "My king, it isn't good for you to see her right now. You should wait until the ceremony so you can be surprized by her looks.""I wouldn't be surprised anyway. Péatra is a beautiful woman, it isn't like she could get prettier if she tried."I let out a gross laugh in response to this, and start to drool. The maids quickly catch my drool as it falls off my

Moving to her, I knock her on the head, and say, "A murder, really?"I turn my head to the boy in the ground and lift him up from the hole.I also see he is tied with rope, so I start to untie him whilst saying, "This is why you don't hang around crazy women like her.""I am not crazy; he is a cheater!"I turn my head to Uathach and say, "I know you're lonely but don't go making up lies about men being in a relationship with you, it is slander."She jumps on my back and starts to bite me, so I say, "Let go of me." While trying to break her grip.However, to my surprise, she is so strong that I can't get her to let go of me. "Spirit energy?""Of course! NOW TAKE MY FURY WOLFIE!"She continues to tighten her body around me choking me out, and as she does this the boy who I was untying gets up and stares at me.Looking at him, I say, "HELP!"But the boy turns and runs away from me, without even acknowledging my situation. So, I just lie there whilst getting choked.In all honesty, gettin

My father moves towards his chair, and standing against it, he says, "For clarity, explain to me again why I should care about those humans?""Because we Tuatha Dé Dannan are not barbarians. You know as well as I do that the growing love, and justification for violence without any benefit is happening everywhere.If everyone's first reaction to anything they don't like is to kill everyone in front of them, it will only negatively impact us as a society going forward. Death has a purpose, and boosting our egos isn't a purpose."My father sighs, then moves towards his chair and grabs a bottle of alcohol, then says, "Hey Setanta, do you know what this is?""Alcohol.""I hate this stuff. It is a substance that makes people stupider, and wilder than they were before. Order is necessary for survive, yet this is something that makes order harder to put in place, not to mention all of the health issues it causes.At one point it became a problem in the providence that couldn't be ignored anym

-Break-Walking with the flour thief beside me in the hallway, I ignore her cries and hum to myself, but then she cries even louder while pushing the bump on her head into me.So, I start to hum much more cheerfully than before while keeping the same tone, but she continues to push into me, so I put her in a headlock and use my knuckle to aggravate her bump which causes her to say, "OWOWOWOW!"She then bites me in the arm, and I say, "You gluttony."I start to pull her hair, but she locks her legs with mine and continues to chow down on my arm, and our fight continues until we both lose energy, and I say, "You're a beast.""And you're delicious," she says licking her lips."I think I might bring forward that execution.""Try me, I will defeat you before you have the chance.""You think you can beat me?""I think I can eat you."We both get up and press our heads against each other, and I say, "You're both a glutton and a liar.""If everyone believes a lie it becomes the truth.""Nu-uh

Φ As I play, I look down at the people below me and laugh to myself. Look at me and be entranced by my playing you fools. Your eyes, your mind, and even your eyes and hearts are forever transfixed onto my playing.Now you beasts, become enraptured by my every movement. You lot get your kicks by insulting me calling me brash and stupid, but is this brash and stupid? Is my playing not the equivalent of the euphoria of sex dripped into your ears!HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!Soon, I finish and when I do I stand up to bow, then I say, "From the house of Faoláins, we all welcome you here to enjoy your time as members of the Red branch, and as the next king of Gorias I will be here to help you with any problems."I get off the stage and look around at all of the people who are tilting their way towards me. I told them to come talk to me if they had an issue, but it seems like they want to try and get me to talk to their kids or remember their names. What a bother.But soon my annoyance

Φ As Dagda laughs in front of me, I say, "So if you would excuse me."With his same cherry smile as always, he says, "Haha, your jokes are as tasteful as your clothes. Now Medb where is my money?""Money? You mean the financial instrument we have assigned value to for the sake of switching things we have made into items we have collected from our environment and from others through labour, intelligence and ingenuity?"With his smile fading a bit, he says, "Hahaha, yes. Now where is it?""Dagda what really is value? Is it something kings assign value to-,""Yes."Putting my finger on his lips, I say, "OR! Is it the exchange of wills from one person to another, so isn't my mere smile payment enough?""Not a chance, now my money."I get thrown off my balance as he rejects me, and then I lean on him and say, "We have known each other for a long time, and you still don't trust me.""I trusted you decades ago when I invested in your research hoping for a return. But every time you make a re
Arc 10.130: The final celebration part 2
Location: City of GoriasΦ For six days a festival has been raging on within the city of Gorias, and the entire providence of Gorias.The beastkin during the festivals made it a point to dress in clothes far more ornate than usual; wearing flowers throughout their bodies, or dressing in clothes made entirely out of plants.Clothes made out of animals had the motif of using materials from animals their innate beast was hunted or were hunted by as a sign of greater connection.The druids made clothes out of plants that could be modified with their beast blood battle, allowing them to change their designs of the clothes, and throughout the city, designated druids were given instructions to change the clothes of those who passed by.Many wore jewellery such as brooches, pins, armlets, rings, and torcs against the animal parts of their bodies as a way to honour their heritage, while many others decorated their bodies with paint or tattoos which represent ancient stories or those who they c

Minagrain in front of me turns incredibly nervous, and she blushes again and again. Her ears start to move wildly, and she takes her tail and uses it to cover her face. She jumps from one foot to the next and then falls to the ground while still holding her tail.Then she looks at me, and she nods."Was that a, yes?" A say with a face of disbelief."Yes," She gestures towards me.I pick her up, twirl her around, and say, "I happen to be the happiest man around!"She turns more and more red as I twirl her around, and we both laugh together. Then stopping I hold her tight and put the ring on her finger which makes her raise her arm to stare at it, before looking directly at me and smiling.Is it even fair to be this cute? Is it even fair to be this adorable? It is like this little girl has a grip on my soul, and there is nothing I can do about it. I am completely dominated by her."Don't worry Minagrain, I will get this traded for some jewellery for your tail instead of this human tradi
