Legacies of light Arc 10.47: Legs of the wolf part 2
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
Legacies of light Arc 10.48: Spear of Lugh part 1
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

-Break-Walking with my compatriots, I say, "Where are we going."Setanta says, "Home.""But this is the capital, shouldn't we be heading towards the outer regions since you're a noble."Smiling, he says, "You will see."I look at Ibar, who with a tired look says, "Get ready sister.""I know."So we all continue on with our horses in tow through the city. Against my idea, we head deeper inside instead of outside, and eventually, we reach the giant castle at the centre of the city.Standing in front of the towering gate, Setanta says, "We are here." Then like an idiot he walks directly toward the tower gates.Grabbing him, I say, "You're not funny."Ibar says, "You can't just walk into the castle of one of the four kings.""I know you like to constantly disrespect people, but if you disrespect one of the four kings that means utter annihilation.""The only way you could actually do worst is if you spit on the high king himself."Setanta says, "I have already spit on the high king himse

Getting off his horse, Ibar waves to all of the maids who were watching him with great vigour. As they wave back full of excitement, I can see the happiness appear on my brother's face.But it soon vanishes as Setanta tackles him and says, "Well done my right leg, you are a splendid foot.""I am not a foot you freak."Setanta puts my brother in a headlock and says, "You are officially my servant and I refuse to allow you to disrespect me in my home."Fighting back Ibar says, "If you don't want me to disrespect you be someone worth respecting!"As the two of them fight Téad marches over and says, "You cheated.""What?" My brother says with a dismissive tone."There is no way nameless scum like you could have defeated me, that horse was obviously given substances."Ferdiad says, "Crunniuc is a horse owned by house Faoláin, be careful with the accusations."Moving up close to him, I say, "I thought the red branch was supposed to be the bravest in the land, but you're unable to even admit
Legacies of light Part 1: Fimbulwinter
Year 1All I feel are sharp pains throughout my body. How long has it been since I started walking? It could only have been just over a day, or I would be dead. I haven't taken time to rest because I feel I would collapse and fall over if I did.My feet are numb, my arms are shaking, and I can barely see anything. My ears are about to fall off, and all the liquid in my body is about to freeze.I feel as though my consciousness could fade at any moment. All I know for sure is the weight of my bag on my back and that I'm walking upwards.Thoughts run through my mind, like how can snow so white clear and beautiful destroy my senses as it is now? I spent years finding the materials to construct clothes resistant to this cold, so that I could climb this mountain at the end of my life, but it barely is doing anything for me.I laugh a little at the hopelessness of my situation, but then my throat feels a sharp pain. I can’t even slightly open my mouth in this cold; the moment the cold air c
Legacies of light Arc 1.01: Lux Arc
It’s morning, I think to myself as I wake up, or evening, or night, in all honesty, I have no idea which it is, but no time for that. It’s a new day for me, time to explore. So I put on the clothes I have claimed as my own, say good morning to my darling and set out first; I check the kid’s door.The snow has yet to return to the child’s door, so I open it and see that it’s very much a kid’s room. On the bed in the room, I go up close and see the kid sleeping. After getting a good look at the kid, I concluded it couldn’t be any older than five or six years. Its hair is also white again.I should also check its gender; however, I don’t want to strip a kid. Hence, I decide to leave before the kid wakes up and gets an even worse opinion of me. Closing the door of the kid’s room, I go look around.On the second floor, I found a lot of empty rooms with nothing in them though they all look well-kept. I found a study and what I believe is a walk-in closet with many females and a few male gar

Ten months later“Do we only exist to suffer,” this is the only thought that goes through my head as I get up from the floor. I can’t keep doing this. It’s been almost two thousand combinations I am about to go insane!But the worst part is that these fruits are super nutritious. It’s making me healthier. My sense of taste is sharper than it ever was, so I can feel that disgusting aftertaste even more. The only way solace I have, is the shower I take at times to relieve stress, but the water has no temperature, so it’s just pressure.Though I have been making some progress on one front, the kid has been staring at me from a closer and closer distance. It’s at the point where the kid can stay in the same room as me, as long as I pretend not to see it.Still, if I try to start a conversation, it no longer screams but runs away fast, which has stopped any progress beyond this point. It’s almost been a year, and this is all I have to show for it.Still, with how much healthier I have been
Legacies of light Arc 1.03
Year 2Two weeks laterWhile sleeping I feel a soft fist hitting me constantly; I try to ignore it and go back to sleep, but then it starts hitting me more, and I hear, “Capti” repeatedly.Still, I don’t feel like getting up yet, so I will ignore it, but then I feel a hard impact on my head.Did that brat just headbutt me; “LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE,” I say as I jump from the bed.Then in the corner of my eye, I see the boy trembling with tears in his eyes. Crap, it seems I scared him, but it’s his fault for messing with me in my sleep again.I guess he won’t learn anytime soon. Oh no, his hair is starting to turn yellow, so I should still apologise. Now in my most soothing voice, I say, “Sorry”, he seems to cheer up after that, so I guess I should start my day.Ever since that day when he asked my name, the boy and I have been talking much more. Well, talking might be a stretch since he goes silent whenever I ask a question or looks bewildered, so it’s usually me just answering his que
