Legacies of light Arc 2.07
It has been eight months since I joined the village; to put it simply, it has been fun. At first, all I did was wake up, train, eat, and then sleep, but over time I was able to make a friend: Willow. Through our mutual love of animals and knowledge we were able to bond, and since we both became warriors, we have grown closer; it seems through all the time I spend with Willow and the other kids, all of the older villagers have been more friendly with me. It also seems Pine and Sequoia were putting in a good word for me.Being part of this big family has made me enjoy being here, even though some people would like me to die. Regardless, I have many people who care and want me to be around now. It makes me want to stay here forever, but I still need to leave. I can’t stay here forever, so I have two objectives to accomplish to do.The first, is to make it so I know the entrance and exit to the village. I still have to be knocked out whenever we go hunting. From being here for so long, I

-Break-Φ I still remember those days, when an epidemic ran through our village. It would make the infected suffer in extreme agony, while their brain started to swell. It was a slow, painful death as they lost control over their bodily functions. Every single day people were dropping like flies, the population of the village halved. Brothers lost their sisters, wife’s lost their husbands, and I lost my parents.Eventually, it was decided to put all the sick to death to stop the infection and end their suffering, but I opposed it with all my might. Even as a kid, I stood in opposition to everyone, saying there still might be a way to save everyone. I keep saying that we can’t just dispose of all these lives like this; it was just a pipe dream. I knew there was no way to save all those people, yet I kept opposing the decision to buy time, because I didn’t want the last words my parents would say to me to be: it hurts Buloke.It was a selfish desire that gave false hope to people who we

“So, anything to say.”“You talk too much.”“Talking is the greatest form of communication, so thank you.”After a moment of silence, I ask Orb, “Why are you trying to help Cole.”“So, you’re finally using his name.”“Just answer me.”“I simply think leaving him to die is just too sad, so I won’t let it happen, simple as that.”“You’re a strange one.”“Thanks for the compliment. You are just layering on the praise.”“I am not praising you, moron. It seems you need to learn what a compliment is.”“Now you’re trying to insult me to keep up that bad attitude. I am like a virus; even if you don’t want me in your system, I find a way to get in.”After a moment of silence, Orb says, “Sorry, I probably shouldn’t have said that.”“Why is that?”“Well, simply because of what happened to your parents.”“How the hell do you know about that!”“I have been spending lots of time with all the villagers, so of course the epidemic would come up.”“You have spent your time in our village well, you have

-Break-Φ As I am preparing to finish up my day, I receive a visitor, it was Orb. “Hey Sequoia, I know you are probably tired after everything that has happened recently, but would I be able to talk with you for a bit.”Orb is not one to bother people if it is not essential so I say, “No problem, let’s head inside my room first,” after we both head inside; he giddily sits down wherever he can.“Would you like anything to drink, Orb?”“No, I am fine and sorry about this.”“Don’t worry, it’s no problem. Now, what is the issue? Is it that you might want to extend the punishment period a bit more, since it ended today.”“No, having Buloke be my servant for the last two months was fine enough, and I made sure to embarrass him lots over that period, so I think it’s fine.”He made Buloke do everything for him, even at a point I started to feel bad, but it was a light punishment considering he tried to kill Orb. He would’ve had to go through something worse, if Orb hadn’t proposed this himsel

The blow that Maple received sent her flying, but she quickly got up and said, “The truth hurts, doesn’t it, Sequoia.”Sequoia yet again becomes visibly enraged by her words and is about to go for another punch, but a group of warriors, including Orb and Buloke, hold him down.As he is being held, Buloke says, “I know what Maple said was out of line, but doing this won’t get your point across at all, so please calm down, chief.”As the chief relaxes, he turns around and walks away, but as he tries to do this, Maple starts walking up to him and says, “Is that all you’ve got, you piece of trash.”The chief ignoring all her words walks away, but Maple continues to spew insults at him without stopping. “Garbage, filth, pig, idiot, MURDER!” But she eventually falls to the ground holding her bruised cheek, as some people try to go up and help her, she screams “, LEAVE ME ALONE!” And then she runs off with tears in her eyes, with Willow following her close being.“Cole, can you come with me
Legacies of light Arc 2.12
After watching my brother run, I returned to the village, where I was severely punished, though I didn’t care since me and my brother made a promise.To become the person my brother saw me as I started training day and night. I also memorised all the knowledge we had about the outside world, so when my Drasil came back, I would be able to go with him. In no time, a year had passed, but my brother hadn’t returned. This sent panic throughout the village. Everyone was worried about what had happened to him, still I wasn’t concerned, because the star he pointed out has only shone brighter and brighter since the day he left.So, to alleviate people’s worries, I went up to large crows and said, “My brother was never one to keep track of time when he is enjoying himself, and without a doubt, I can say he is enjoying himself.”The words I said to everyone with complete faith in my brother, little by little, won them over and calmed their worries, even my parents, and so as time continued and

-Break-Φ “Why can’t they both understand? Is it because they are young? Is it because they were born without fear? I want them to be safe, but they strongly reject my wish. Am I supposed to let them jump into an abyss I know ends with them falling to their deaths?”Sequoia has been rambling on ever since Orb left, as if trying to convince himself of something.“Cole, may I ask you something.”“Go ahead.”“As someone who has lived in the outside world for most of your life, am I wrong? Is what I believe incorrect.”“The world is too big for anyone to have a comprehensive opinion on it, that includes myself, so I can’t tell you whether you or Orb are correct. Still, we all act according to some form of justice, so if you believe with all your heart that the outside world will only bring harm to your daughter, then don’t let her go no matter what, and keep her safe, but that’s simply my opinion.”“Thank you for that, Cole,” he says while looking relieved.“CHIEF,”, Aea says as she runs

I felt a powerful force spend my us into the snow. Feeling pain, I grab a hold of the situation, and see Willow on top of me with blood coursing down his forehead.“Good to see you’re ok, but right now, I need you to run,” Willow says to me.After looking past Willow, I see a giant beast coming for us, I quickly get up as fast as I can, but as I am going to begin to run, I see that Willow hasn’t gotten up. “What are you doing?

"He saved you?""Quite, when he found out about my sister's condition he decided to take the both of us in. Apparently, that man had been gathering those born with a similar condition and had been sending them off to one of his faraway colonies to live."Smiling Craig said, "But guess what when he told me this, he just said I shipped your sister off to a plantation, where she will work and live till she dies.Can you believe that! It made me think she was a slave, and when I later found out the truth, he said; what did you think I mean? Can you believe that asshole?"Saoirse says, "It's better than him telling you that your brother is being squished to death when in actuality he means your brother just got married and his wife can't stop hugging him." A few others come towards us and say, "Once he told me that the food he was eating was so good it would destroy you, so I took a bite and it turns out it was poison. Then he looked at me as if I was strange for eating it!""He once told

With a tight grip on my spear, I say, "Red branch battle arts; Star flower."Then I dash forward knocking as many of the enemy soldiers away as possible. I move from place to place striking down as many of them as I can and as I do this, I shout, "I won't let any of you die.""You need to leave Ferdiad!""No way, unless all of you come with me. You guys are my family, and none of you shall die here!"I continue to move faster and faster knocking back their enemies, but due to their armour, I cannot strike a killing blow on any of them.Yet he manages to push many of them back, and he says, "I will slay all of you.""You're far too arrogant for your skill level, and I will show you that now."One of the armoured beastkin gets in a stance that is all too familiar to me. Shocked, I say, "Red branch battle arts!""Clover."The beastkin then lunges forward and is about to hit me with clover, but as his spear comes towards me, Cruadhlaoich gets in the way, and the beastkin sword goes straig

Location: BasecampΦ As I stare down at Setanta's face, I say, "Please wake up."Suddenly he opens his eyes and says, "Laeg you scandalous harlot, I never thought you would try to steal a kiss as I sleep, well then here you go."He kisses me on the forehead, and says, "That should satiate your desires you beast."I prepare to hit him, but then relax and hug him saying, "I am so happy you're ok!"Rubbing the back of my head, he says, "Not even the god of the humans could rip me off this planet so young, never worry about such things.""But how did you even wake up, I was told you would be out for at least two days with your wounds."Setanta jumps all around and says, "I feel amazing so it seems you were off."Grabbing him, I say, "Don't move around your wounds could reope-.Wait they are all gone!"Examining his body, I say, "All of your wounds have healed with no scars.""You guys must have fed me well whilst I was sleeping.""We did, but isn't this a ridiculous amount of healing in su

With tears streaming down his face he continues to hit me whilst saying, "Why, why, why, why, why did you try and kill me son? I loved you, I have always been here for you why!?"Spitting out some teeth, I smile and say, "Two strangers I met today showed me more compassion than you could ever even muster. You're a failure of a man, you're a failure of a father, and I hate you with all my heart scum."Cambell hits me directly in the face again, then gets up and faces my mother who is holding my sister in her arms, and as they cower my father says, "It is your fault witch, you turned my son against me, a stupid whore like you and your insignificant daughter planned this against me."Cambell throws at punch at my mother, and I get in the way defending the both of them.

-Break-Those days continued, and as I expected father's abuse got worse with each passing day. He hurt them more and more while leaving visible scar after visible scar, and eventually, they reached a point where neither could leave the house.Minagrain spent every day crying and trying to force herself to speak but it was all to no avail. It just broke her heart more and more, so I hugged her and made her let it all out in my arms.It was horrible that she had to stay in that house all day, never letting anyone else see her. But for me, I was liberated, because now I could move around unfettered with anyone reporting my actions.With this new freedom, came an idea, one that would allow me to end all of this once and for all.Holding a dead fish in my arms, I walk in front of my Hewt's house and say, "Here you go."Expecting it he says, "This is a high-quality salmon, it is good to have you around Ferdiad.""Enough of that, just hand me my rewards."In my hands, I am handed some Red b

My mother removing his shoes asks, "How was your day?""Horrid, why do I have to work for my brother!"My mother says, "I know it's unfair, but even after your father unfairly gave everything to your brother, he still chose to keep you by his side."He starts at my mother and says, "Why did you phrase it as if he is doing me a favour."My mom looks down and says, "I didn't mean it like that, I am just sure that's how he views it."Running up towards my mother's side, I say, "They look down on you Dad, but you're the only reason everything here is capable of working. I know it must suck not getting the right reward for all your effort, but you're still the best."My dad puts his hand on my head and rubs it saying, "Of course you would understand, unlike the rest of the idiot here, you're my blood.""Hehe," I say gripping on my mother's skirt.Breaking my hand from my mother, he pulls me to the table in the centre of the room and says, "My son needs to eat if he wants to grow up strong.

I run as fast as I can moving through the forest with great haste. This is too big, I think I might understand why Lugh saw it fit to bring so many allies with us to this battlefield.Humans who can comfortably move through an area filled with wonderbeasts are insane. Even if they cleared out this entire area beforehand, it is still an amazing feat.Not even us beastkin can overcome something like this without ridiculous amounts of planning. But what is most worrisome is that there were no human corpses anywhere around, so they didn't overcome this place by throwing massive amounts of soldiers into it, they have people with skill enough to do this themselves.As I enter the proximity of our campsite, I start to hear a scream, and say, "Oh no."Moving through the forest, I see that our camp is being assaulted by humans. Few are on their feet, and many of them are on their horses.The area around here is protected by trees but isn't dense with it allowing one to fight on horseback, and

Picking up a piece of wood, I hold it to my nose and sniff it."This smells of food."A soldier of the Faoláin house Liam says, "That little piece of wood."Another Faoláin soldier named Cian says, "Was it part of a box.""You're right. It was probably part of the fleeing humans' supplies, I want everyone to search the area for more, if we can find something with a strong scent we might be able to actually find the humans."Turing my head to Téad, I say, "I need the Lúcogadh to go ahead and see if Ronald has made contact with the humans."One of them says, "We don't take orders from you."But Téad puts his hand up and says, "We will be back in no time."As they leave, I sigh and then say, "Now let's get to work."The beastkin spread out and eventually, one of them says, "Ferdiad over here!"As I arrive besid

He is body is quite battered to the point where I don't think he should be able to move.Ibar coming towards me asks, "Is Setanta ok?""I don't know, I have never seen him this injured before we need to get him bandaged up right now."Ibar looks confused for a moment, so I ask, "What's wrong?""Setanta was far more beaten up when I saw him after falling off the chariot, did his wounds heal.""Nonsense, beastkin need food to heal, and no beastkin could even heal that fast if they had all the food in the world."Laeg coming closer to us, says, "I brought some druids to help Setanta.""Thank you Laeg, now it is time to go and make sure this battlefield ends in our victory.""No your not!"
