Legacies of light Arc 10.54: House of Faoláin part 4
Φ Gripping my hammer tight, I say, "Come at me with all you have got!"Suddenly Setanta vanishes from my sight and then moments later I feel a blow to the left side of my stomach. So I swing my weapon towards that space, but Setanta is nowhere to be found.Then yet again I am struck on my right side before I can even sense his presence. This also causes me to turn in that direction, but as I do I feel the wind blow past my body at high speed and every time it does I feel a blow.Φ "With the way he is moving, Cruadhlaoich can't even see him much less block, this is completely ridiculous!"Laeg looks at me and Ferdiad says, "How is Setanta moving so fast, I don't even think I can move that fast on my horse!?"Ferdiad with a smile says, "He is using a special form of fighting taught to those who train under our master, Red branch battle arts. A style of fighting that emphasises intense speed and finishing the battle in quick blows.You put all of your speed into a short lunge, and altern

Location: StablesWalking out of the changing room I look down at the clothes I am in and jump around. They have given me quite comfortable clothes to change into for the sake of practising."Usually I don't get to wear pants, they really are comfortable." Jumping around with my new range of motion I start to smile brightly.And as I do, my brother says, "Laeg stop embarrassing me."Noticing all of the people watching me, I see my brother's bright red face and moments later I have the same expression, and say, "Sorry."With an annoying grin, Setanta says, "No please continue."I hold myself back from kicking him in the face, and say, "I am done."Setanta then proceeds to laugh, but then Ferdiad hits him directly in the face. "Don't feel like you can't hit him due to his position, if you don't you might lose your sanity.""HEY, DON' T TELL MY LEGS TO ATTACK ME!"As they talk I stare at Ibar and say, "My little baby brother is looking quite handsome today."Hitting me in my side Ibar sa

"I have decided that the four of us will go on a picnic with some of my associates today, so get off your buts and let's get going."I stare at Setanta, and say, "No."My brother says, "We have work to do, and unlike you, we cannot just disappear when we have to train."With a bright smile plastered over his face, he says, "But what does it matter it is not like you two achieve much anyway."His brutally honest words caused both me and my brother to fall to our knees. Our pride is currently shattering into pieces and this direct blow to it has taken our remaining strength."Hey, where are your usual comebacks?"My brother says, "No, more, fighting, spirit."Setanta says, "Of come on don't start acting like humans, show me some fire!" as he grabs and shakes Ibar.Ferdiad moving closer to me crouches down and says, "You guys still need to get used to riding Liath, and Kooacht. So I think this journey to the picnic will allow both of you two get a better feel for them."With all my barri

-Break-Φ Still covered in mucus, I walk with Ferdiad who is carrying a large bucket of water to a little shack behind his giant home, and as we enter inside it, Ferdiad says, "I knew she kept the cloth in here. We have so much room, yet she insists on still using these places."Standing in the shack, I see that this place has clothes and beds inside of it, it also has a section set out to prepare food. As I stare around it, Ferdiad says, "Does this place interest you?""Not really, I was a bit surprised by why there are things here despite looking like a storage area."Walking past me, Ferdiad says, "Because it is our former house. Now come outside where I can get you clean.""What?" I say as I follow him.Reaching outside the room Ferdiad grabs me and places me on the floor and starts to clean the mucus off of me, and as he does I say, "You used to live there?""That is what I said, don't tell me you have some parrot blood in your veins.""No, but it is shocking that you've been abl

Walking into the room, Setanta says, "Someone called for me."Looking at him, I say, "What did you do!"Rubbing the back of his head, he says, "I promised a bunch of rewards to those who make the most food, and then everyone started to get real excited.""What kind of rewards?""Oh, a castle."From the back, Ferdiad hits Setanta and says, "You idiot!""Hey, I was just trying to provide for our picnic."My brother says, "You know what is not relaxing? A GIANT MONEY HUNGREY CROWD."Minabród says, "Ferdiad would you please calm them down?""Yes momm-, I mean mother. Now Ibar come join me."Ferdiad walks away slightly embarrassed, and as he does. Setanta then proceeds, to run towards Minagrain and shout, "You look radiant as always!"With the happiest expression, I have seen her make yet she jumps towards Setanta and gives him a big hug.Setanta then says, "How are you doing wife number one."She then proceeds to make motions which I do not understand the purpose of and Setanta makes some

-Break-Location: Laeg roomAs my maids get me prepared for bed, I take in a deep breath and I say, "I hope Minagrain finds happiness as well."Looking at the faces of Lúidín and Innéacs, I notice they seem shocked for a moment, but then they quickly turn to ones of excitement.Lúidín says, "Isn't she just the most precious thing in the world.""So adorable."Innéacs "And the way she diligently studies to not be an embarrassment to Setanta of his position, just brings me to tears.""How heartwarming."Lúidín says, "Not a single woman in this castle would ever get in the way of her efforts.""I feel the same."Innéacs turns to Lúidín and says, "I knew this girl would come around, this is why I told you all of your childish passive aggressiveness was unfounded."Me and Lúidín looked at Innéacs and then, we says, "IT WAS YOU!""You guys are so strange why worry about who said what, the most important thing right now is to hear about how the picnic was today."Smiling, I say, "I will only

As I walk through the door, I see what I can only describe as an ever-growing lump of flesh. It isn't that much bigger than two meters, yet I instinctively feel a sense of dread that I have never before.Lugh throws me a real spear, and says, "What is my greatest achievement!""The besting of the wonderbeast Vánagandr. Countless fell by its claws and you killed and devoured it.""This beast that lays in front of you is the remainder of its flesh, and half of its brain I kept for experimental purposes, and know I want you to fight it by yourself."Lugh whistles and the flesh form starts to change, it continues to repeat over and over again until this two-meter lump of flesh takes on the form of a wolf, but most of its flesh is still exposed, and in small patches, skin is throughout its body.Its teeth fully regenerate, but only one eye does. It has a tail reminiscent of a crescent moon, and its body seems metallic but also organic. I can tell that whether this thing once looked like, i

Φ "Your head really doesn't work," I say looking at Setanta."Laeg life is an adventure, don't worry about such small stuff.""Death isn't small.""Oh please, this isn't even doing anything to m-," before Setanta can finish he starts to throw up.While this happens I look at my brother who is incredibly jittery, and ask, "What's making you so excited.""Because we are on our way to Emain Macha, the place where many of the red branch go to train their skills. It is known as the gathering place for all those who have or will have power in the future. A perfect place to make connections.""I don't think anyone would want to connect with someone who looks like he is about to drool at the mere sight of this place.""Shut up, I am just excited."Turning to Ferdiad, I ask, "So why are we going here exactly?""Before major battles, it is normal traditional to come here for good luck, since it is the sight of our first victory against the humans. In actuality, this is mine and Setanta's first

-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
