-Break-

After running around for a while, we eventually found a secluded area to sit down. While there, the man started to patch up the boy’s injuries and said to the boy, “So can you tell me why you would do something as foolish as stealing?”

“It’s none of your business old man,” the kid says. But moments later, he is slapped in the face by the man.

“You fool, something has driven a young boy like you to fall into the theft. Of course that’s my business, so whatever it may be, I will certainly come and help you, so please tell me why.”

The boy who freezes up for a second, says with his head hanging low, “There is someone I want to use this sword to kill.”

“My god, why would you want to do such a thing.”

“You see, my father and I came to Deno to expand our family business. But when we arrived a few years ago, a man who claimed to be an expert in helping small business rise came up to my father. As this man promised, he helped my father little by little. Gained our trust, and one day w

    -Break-I was looking at the vast blue sea in front of me, entirely memorised. I read that the ocean was enormous, but I never expected this. It is so large that it makes Fimbulwinter look small in comparison. I am in love with this sight, but the part that makes it all better is the suffering of Sparrow beside me.As Sparrow vomits from seasickness, “You feel that Sparrow, that’s justice I hope you enjoy it.”“I already apologised, so please get me some water.”“No, I will still punish you for all the other people you have robbed without my knowledge.”So as Sparrow continues to vomit, Cyrus comes from inside the ship. When I see him, I say, “You changed back to the clothes Pine gave you. I liked the outfit the church gave you.”“I did, too, but-u-u-ut it stood out too much. I felt embarrassed.”“You shouldn’t. You looked amazing.” Suddenly as I said this, a swarm of giant butterflies came flying in our direction. What a pretty sight, I think to myself. But mere seconds after I do th

    -Break-Φ While eating the delicious breakfast they prepared for us in the inn. I look over at Orb, who has bandages on his body. Ever since this morning, he has been mumbling the same thing under his breath “I am going to crush you fox. I am going to crush you fox.” Without stopping.This is because, at some point, Orb snuck out of the inn last night and was attacked by a group of minus spirits. So Zashiki went to get help, but when she returned to the scene, all the minuses were dead, and Orb was left unconscious in a rather unfaltering position. When he woke up, Orb claimed he fell unconscious, but he later informed me that a person in a fox mask killed all the minuses and knocked him out.“O-O-O-ORB, why won’t you tell anyone what ac-c-c-tually happened? This fo-o-o-ox masked person might be dangerous.”“No way in hell, Cyrus; I don’t need anyone getting in the way of my revenge. I can barely look Zashiki in the eye with the state I was left in yesterday. So, I will find that pers

    Φ After leaving Orb, I walk around looking for the Medicine shop. While walking around, I repeat the same thing in my head: do your best. After a while, I stop and realise I don’t remember how I got here.Freaking out, I try to retrace my steps till I am somewhere familiar, but it is to no avail. So decided to go up and ask someone for directions.“Umm, Hel-l-l-llo.”“Hello.”“D-D-Do you know where the inn with the little fox-x-x-x’s is.”The man then looks as if he is thinking and then gives me a set of directions. That went well. I was able to do something to get out of my situation, this is good. So I followed the man’s directions and arrived at the wrong inn.Remembering what Zashiki said, I realised the fox spirits should be normal everywhere. I used the wrong spirit when asking for directions.As I walk away from the false inn, more lost than before, I start to feel sick. There are so many people all around me. Some are younger than me, and they don’t look nearly as inept as me.

    While I stare into her face while she is pinned to the ground, she suddenly turns her head to the side where our eyes can’t meet. While avoiding eye contact, she says, “Get off of me and give me back my mask, you utter pile of garbage.”“If you want to be so rude, you should say such things to my face or are you too shy for that.”“JUST GET OFF!” She screams as her tails try to attack me.I move away in time, grabbing her basket in one hand while having her mask in another. “That wasn’t nice.”She stands up with her back facing me and says, “You attacked me first.”“Only because you humiliated me for no reason. Do you know the looks I get while walking around the city?”“Don’t worry about that since your existence is embarrassing enough.”Annoyed I say, “As punishment for your big mouth, I will eat all the food in this basket right here, right now.”She jumps forward and tries to hit me due to my declaration. While she tries to hit me, she turns around, and I look directly into her fa

    Walking back to the inn after a rather long day, Zashiki greets us. “How did today go for the both of you,” she said.“Fine, I got solutions to some of the problems we were facing. Though I had to run all over the city to find them.”“That sounds wonderful. You probably got some great sightseeing while you were running around.”“You know, I am pretty sure I was so obsessed with getting what I wanted that I didn’t even bother to look at any of the sights in the city.”“Well, that’s a pity, but for however long you stay here, I hope you manage to get some in.”“I promise I will,” I say as we open the door to our room, but I am greeted with a strange sight. The Gyaku kitsunes have Sparrow tied up and are kicking him while he is on the ground.“What are you guys doing to our guests,” Zashiki says.“Oh, don’t worry. Even if they drown him, we wouldn’t care much.”“It’s not that, I have never seen them do something this aggressive before. This isn’t a good sign. All of you are coming with m

    As the people around me start to increase, they yell at me, saying;“Why are you here?”“Have you come to curse us?”“You’re the one making the minuses stronger, aren’t you.”“Don’t you know how your existence has brought ruin to our businesses?”“Stop destroying our lives!”“Why did you have to be born into our village.”“Was it not enough destroying your parent’s lives.”“GET OUT!” Someone screams at me as they throw a stone my way. But as the stone comes towards me, Orb knocks it away as he and Cyrus arrive.“What are you people doing?”“Stay out of this foreigner.”“How can I stay out of this when my friend.”“Friend, do you even know what that child is?”“She must have tricked him.”“To think she has been trying to bewitch all the travellers all this time.”“Even after we put up with her existence in our village, she still pulls stunts like this. I have had enough of this, let us remove her.”Cyrus smashes his foot into the ground, which releases a mighty shockwave pushing people

    I was brought to the Himeji castle when I arrived in the capital. I was always told as a child that it was a giant beautiful building where the shogun lived. It was a place I wanted to visit one day. To think I could come here, though my circumstances weren’t the ones I wanted to see it under.The first thing they did when I got there was isolate me from everyone. I was given a new change of clothes and was brought excellent food daily. However, I hated when they came to provide me with anything because whenever they approached, I could feel their hatred, fear and disgust at my presence. Every day I would feel more and more of their emotions until one day, I started to hear their thoughts.Full of animosity, they would discuss:“She is too dangerous to be kept alive.”“The fox rampage this time might destroy more than our country.”“It is our duty as humans to end this threat. We should execute her immediately.”“Kids cannot be put to death for any reason.”“Will you let such a foolis

    -Break-Every day since Suzuka told us her name, we have come to visit her. The twinstars have tightened their defences around the area of her house, but as long as we sneak past them, it is no issue.Whenever we arrive, Suzuka is filled with joy to be with us, so much so that I felt that she was overbearing but still, that smile is too genuine for me to complain, so I bear with it.We spend all our time from morning till night playing. We draw, we build snow sculptures, we even fight though Suzuka tends to beat our asses at all of these things, which has stroked my competitive spirit quite a bit. So instead of making sure she has been having a fun time, I have been trying to crush her with all my heart though it turns out life isn’t going my way.One day I lost so completely at everything I fell to the ground on my hands and knees in defeat with tears falling down my eyes. Seeing this, Suzuka said to me.“Sorry about this Orb I’ll let you win the next one.”“That won’t make me happy,

    My skin tenses up with rage, but Péatra grabs my arms and says, "Right now if you cause a scene in front of everyone it will be a mess and a show of weakness to the people."Restraining myself, I look at Bricriu who says, "Cú Culainn the warrior whose name has been spread far and wide throughout the empire has committed a grave sin.He has aided human slaves in their escape from the empire, siding with the idea that they deserve to be treated as equals to us. He has betrayed both the empire and his blood.These slaves are now loose carrying critical information about our empire and will aid our enemies in upcoming battles. But do not worry as Ferdiad has bested Cú Culainn today, he has overcome the rapid warrior and now stands on top of the greatest talent in the empire!"Walking forward Ferdiad says, "Know this as long as I stand at the head of my generation.

    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.

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.

    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.
