We all shutter as we stare at him. But turning to me Iancu says, "Maple what the hell is that, we got to go now!"Senán then holds out his palm in front of all of us and opens it, and then in the middle of his palm a light front the sky descends down and we hear, "NOW IT IS TIME FOR THE ARRIVAL OF THE MOST MAGNIFICENT BEING TO EVER EXIST, DUMNORIX THE GREATEST IN ALL CREATION!"As Dumnorix's foolish act plays out, the tension that everyone feels turns to annoyance, yet despite our reaction to him, he doesn't just stop there.Turning to Senán he says, "Thanks for the ride doggy, you made my already magnificent entrance greater than it was before!""DID YOU JUST CALL HIM A DOG!" The beastkin from both sides yell.Senán then drops Dumnorix down on the ground, and says, "I am happy that funny Beastkin like you still exist."Every movement he makes sends wind through the area he is just that big. With his other arms, he opens his palm and then spits something into it.Then he throws that b
Location: Plains of Díoltas Φ Pointing to Iancu beside me, Willow and Suzuka, he says, "You seem more knowledgeable than the other humans who look quite smooth."Iancu without hesitation says, "Smooth is too light, utterly idiotic is a better word to describe the three of them, especially Suzuka."Suzuka completely out of character starts to attack Iancu and says, "Why did you only exclude me!""I was just trying to be truthful!"Seeing her act wilder than she ever does, I laugh a bit, and say, "Didn't know you could be like this."This causes her to come down and say, "I am not a monster Maple, it is just that Iancu is a demon and deserves to be smithed."Watching from a distance Senán snaps his fingers which create a loud sound then says, "Are you all done?""Yes!" We all say frightened by his slightly aggressive tone."Now nightmare, do you know of the 1st cycle?""Of course I do, it is hard not to."Willow turning to me says, "Isn't that the thing Orb talked about?""Yeah, I beli
2nd Cycle of history, the 132nd year of athbhreith beithíoch calendar.Continent: Victoria Location: The village of GaothΦ A young beastkin girl stands in a concealed area, and as she does she pets a wonderbeast that looks similar to that of a horse, Glórmthai. The beast has great flowing hair and glistening eyes.And as she hugs it someone walks into the area and says, "Sister, they are back."Turning around to look at my brother, I say, "Again." Then start running with him.We run from the back of my father's shop to the outside, and as we do we see a group of men fighting. As the drunken men are fighting outside, they break through the shops one after another."Those bastards are shattering everything here," I say as I clench my fist.With panic in his face, Andrew walks up to the people and says, "Please stop, you're breaking my shop."His words and pleas are ignored and moments later the leader of these men comes close to Andrew, a man with beautiful golden locks. With a playfu
-A Few hours later-Location: Hidden penIn the depths of night, I walk out to Glórmthai's hiding place, and as I do I hear the sounds of a few men drinking inside the tavern. Looking through an opening in the horse, I see inside where my dad is comforting Andrew and others who have their property destroyed."What a softy," I say with a smile.Walking over to Glórmthai, I hug him and I think back to the events that played out this morning and all I can feel in response to them all is anger, so fierce and so intense that I feel like screaming."Glory, did Dad really do the right thing because right now more than ever I want to just go out there and crush all of those bastards with my fists.Glory simply neighs in response then licks my head, and I say, "I guess this is your way of telling me to calm down."Looking at Glory, I say, "You usually don't like to sit down, but you're doing so right now. What is going on?"Looking past Glory's head, and flowing hair I see one of the two boys
My giant of a father with an expression he never shows me, proceeds to attack the men in front of us, and following behind him others try to help. The fighting goes on, but as expected with the exception of a few of us including my father, the rest of the people go down easily.As their swords, hit the bodies of everyone we see their blood fly, around and it is a horrible sight. Holding my brother I stand there frozen in shock, but then my father says, "Both of you grab the children and run."These words unfreeze me and I say, "But what about you!""It doesn't matter just leave!"Swords swing towards my father's arms but he is able to block the attack. Since my father has a bull as his animal his muscles are quite a bit thicker than others.But then, Hubert moves towards my father, and with two quick slashes he leaves a carve on my father's chest which causes him to drop to the floor, then moments later Hubert steps on his head, and says, "Is this all you people got."Me and my brothe
-Break-Location: Fergal houseΦ In the dead of night, Fergal walks carrying multiple barrels of wine towards the storage house, and as he does one of the barrels falls from his body towards the floor.But before it hits the floor, the barrel is caught by Ibar who says, "You need help Dad?""I'd much prefer you be sleeping, but for now it would be nice."Walking forward, I say, "I know where Laeg got her nagging from.""I am sensing some disrespect in your tone.""None of that sir.""Good, now are you doing ok?""Yeah my wounds have healed up great, but are you sure you're out? You got cut up pretty bad.""I am fine, I have rather thick muscles, and the meat those two visitors brought was incredibly nutritious.""I know what you mean, my mouth still waters thinking about it, I wish we could have that every day.""Well then I am going down to the next major city to see if we can get materials for rebuilding, and I will be sure to bring back something delicious back.""But that is only
As we ride through the forest a chilling feeling goes through my body. It is a place filled with dark trees that look like they have been burnt to ash yet maintain their form and texture.Through those trees, a red Firey energy flows as if a flame that was used to burn this forest simply got captured and ingrained with the trees themselves.No light from the sun can pierce the giant forest we are encased inside, with the only light source being the purple leaves that exist within the trees. It is hard to breathe as if feels like the air in different places moves from pure and clear to utterly putrid.There are fruits growing off each tree. They look dead as if all life has left them, yet they throb over and over again just like hearts. These sounds fill the area and make a rhythm that unnerves me deeply.However what truly scares me is that as I look away and then back at the trees, I swear they are shifting. It makes me feel like I am going crazy and I start to swear, but then Setant
Location: City of GoriasStanding in front of the largest city I have ever seen I look with awe, and say, "Is this place real."Ibar says, "Does this place actually exist?"Ferdiad says, "Of course, it does, Gorias is one of the four major cities in the place of our origin of Tir na n-iontas."Looking at him, I say, "Do you think we will run into the high king here?"Ferdiad says, "You're confusing here for Tara which is in the centre of all four cities. You won't be seeing the high king here, but you might run into one of the four lesser kings here, the king of Gorias."Both me and Ibar completely clammer up.Ferdiad says, "I thought both of you were rude to nobility.""Common nobles are one thing but the king is chosen by Danu herself. So meeting him is far more special than meeting one of the countless talentless nobles.""I guess that is how a couple of country hicks would react hey.""WHO ARE YOU CALLING A HICK!""DON'T FORGET WE JUST SAVED YOUR LIFE.""I know, I know, now let's
