Location: Grand hall of Eche

As the eccentric lecture rampages on with her teachings in front of all of us, I take the time to form my thoughts.

Through this one class, I have learned quite a bit about this place. First, they all speak the heroes song, after seeing so many of them speak it I can confirm it is simply the universal language down here.

Secondly, it seems they all think the humans were completely wiped out, and everything on the outside has frozen over.

And from other statements they have made, I can rightfully assume they have all been living here since before Victoria froze over and became Fimbulwinter.

This has made me extra cautious in regard to protecting our identity. Because we are their only key to the outside world, and if we are not careful we could even start a human-beast war like in all of my childhood books.

However, I doubt they could do anything to the human nations which have advanced much further since the time humans were the slaves of the beastkin.

She says giving the girl walking over to her.The woman then corrects herself and says, "Deirfiúr na gréine." Which is a term in more classical heroes song, a version of the song that no one in the village or outside the village tends to use.The term means sister of the sun. With a bright smile, Cultúir asks, "Yes what is it.""The pipes understand, Ronald's bakery has burst which has caused flooding, and it seems Moris had used the Uisslí plants for his own recreational use so we have none to make any pipes.This has caused a big stir as his bread was recently going to be used as a prize for the upcoming Gaelic tournament, and now those who usually eat his bread are fighting with those who want to save it for the sports tournament, this has caused some to even start fighting.But the worst part is some of the kids participating in the tourn

    -Break-Location: Grand hall of Eche; Dinning HallΦ With a plate in my hands, walk up to where all the food is, and it is tremendous. Ever where I look I see food glistening as if the messiah has fallen down on it.So with my stomach grumbling I reach out my hand and prepare to take what I want, but then I am stopped by a beastkin with a weapon at his side, who says, "Don't try and be funny, Fanalis you know which food is yours."So, I stretch my arm, away from the food I was about to grab and to another dish, but he makes the same angered look that he had on before. So I repeat this process, till my hand ends up hovering over food that is clearly made from bugs."You can't be serious?""Are you sick in the mind you Fanalis, stop complaining and take what your kind eats as normal."Filling my plate full of bugs, I get up and walk away till I meet Dillon and Suzuka. Sitting down beside them, I say, "Hey Dillion why can't I take any of the other food there?""What the Fanalis eat is he

    -Break-Location: Fanalis VillageΦ As all of us kids return on the back of the beast, I say, "What an eventful day."Suzuka replies, "I cannot wait to reach that much tomorrow."Dillion then says, "We don't have any school tomorrow."Suzuka's face instantly fills with despair, and I try my best to hold back my laughter."But you don't have to worry, it is almost dinner time," Dillon says as he points towards their little village which seems to have a lot of people gathering in the centre.Suzuka runs forward and we follow behind her, and when we reach the overpopulated village, we see there is a giant pot in the middle of the village and from that pot a heavenly smell emanates.Beside us, we hear, "It seems the Aisachta up and died, so they are cooking it all tonight.""What? I thought we would have been able to get more out of it.""Well what use is there complaining about it tonight, it won't bring it back from the dead.""I guess you're right, so let's simply party today to make u

    -Break-Location: Abais castleΦ Sitting in one room the five ministers of Nialathrú gather. "Cultúir, how did today go?" Amadán asks."It went far better than I had expected. As it stands the little girl seems like she would be very easy to control.""So should we move on with the next step of our plan?" Olc asks."Sadly, not yet, one thing I learned is that one of the people she is looking for seems to be the one who holds all the power among the humans who live above us.This means our plan to use the girl to control the humans won't work without killing this other human first. But to do that we are to go ahead with our plan, we now need a bit more info. Leisciúil did you do the inspection like I asked?""Yes, my people doubled checked and without at doubt falling from that height would have killed a normal person. So those people the human is looking for have legacies, well at least one has.""That causes a minor problem for us, but not one that we won't be able to get past. Still

    On the ground, Aois says, "Thank you, I have already made their breakfast, all I need you to do is serve it in their bowls."Walking forward, I opened a compartment that Aois was pointing towards and took out a couple of bowls. There are only a few, so I guess these kids must reuse the bowls.Taking one bowl, I serve food inside it then hand it to one of the kids with a smile, saying, "Here you go."The child gives me a confused look, then she throws the bowl of hot porridge right into my face causing me to roll around on the ground, and then she says, "THAT'S NOT MY BOWL!"Getting up I scream, "It's just a bowl, eat!""No, I don't want to touch Malta bowl, she is yucky!""You're yucky!" Malta says as the two start to fight."Stop being brats and just eat!""NO!" The children scream.Aois says, "Sorry, but the kids refuse to eat from anything other than their own bowls!""But there are not even fifty here, so how could that be?""They tend to misplace them, so only they would know.""

    Φ Running forward at full speed, I go up to everyone I can see and ask the same question to each of them. But in response to this, I get either unaware or rude remarks in response."Sorry, I don't know?""I haven't heard of such a thing.""Could you stop being such a pest!""Get out of here.""I don't have time for this.""I have no clue, sorry.""No idea but here's a snack for your trouble."Still running in a circle, I start feeling a little weak and then I end up falling into another beastkin. Getting up while on the ground, I say, "How many times is that now!"Seeing the beastkin, I notice he is something that I haven't seen before. He looks way more like an animal than he does a human, in fact, he looks like a bug."Sorry, I was running like a fool."Looking at me he says, "No, I wasn't watching where I was going please forgive me?"Hearing the sound of a child being considerate is something that seems completely alien to me after the day I have had, so crying uncontrollably, I s

    -Break-Slowly Aois walks in front of me, and at the same pace, I follow behind him."Maple, I cannot thank you enough for what you have done.""It really is no big problem, especially with you getting that poison out of my system, and seeing the faces of defeat on those kids' faces was also quite lovely."Aois laughs, then says, "The kids may come off harsh, but that is simply how they were raised."Confused, I say, "You don't seem like the kind of person to raise them that way?""Before they came here, each and every one of those kids were picked off the street, so they learned to look out for themselves above others.""I see, that's why they didn't seem to care about all the stuff they were breaking.""Yes, it is one of their many bad habits that I am slowly trying to change. But sometimes I wonder if I ever can, the last time I raised an orphan it was Dumnorix and despite his achievements, he has some attitude issues.""Some?"Aois laughs again, and says, "Some might be too generou

    He brings me closer to him and tightens his restrictions which causes me to bleed, and then he says, "Don't waste your future by doing something so stupid my young king."Laughing a bit, I say, "It is nice to know you care for me, but I can assure you of something your future king can never be restrained from doing what his heart desires.""You may be strong, but don't forget that this is the second time you lost to me.""And since when did a Faoláin allow his weakness to remain open?"Taking in a deep breath, I shout, "RUAIRI!""Beast blood battle arts ultimate art; Fás Glórmhar!"From my mouth, I spit out a swarm of seeds, which all accelerate through their growth forming into massive trees in front of Ronald. I then lunge over towards the humans, and then the boys' troop which is ahead of us, runs down towards us."Ruairí, I need you to take both Laeg and Ibar then get them out of here. The rest of you make sure Donald doesn't follow us."Turning to the humans, I say, "Follow me!"

    Standing up Scáthach looks to everyone around them, and bows her head saying, "Sorry for the disturbance it won't happen again."Using her shadows Scáthach places Minabród back on her chair and says, "Minabród your human blood is not to blame you are. You failed Ferdiad."Minabród lowers her head and barely holds back tears from coming out of her eyes."But so did I as his master, Setanta as his friend, Minagrain as his sister, and Lugh as his king. We have all failed that child in certain ways, and we will never be able to take back the hurt that has caused him, but you must simply find peace in that.""Why! Why should I find peace in that? I couldn't help him, I couldn't protect him, all I could do was hurt him like a disease, and if it wasn't due to my blood, and just due to me. Then I don't deserve to keep breathing.""Minabród kids are scary, raising a child is scary.

    -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

    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

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.
