Φ As the boy runs towards us again he repeats the same move he tried on us before, so I scream, "BRACE," And all my soldiers hunker down with spirit energy flowing through their shields.When the boy's attack hits it turns to ice like last time, so I scream "PUSH!" But as I do I feel something cold at my feet. Looking down I see some of the boy's snow had gotten under our shields then suddenly it all turns into ice spikes, which break our formation slightly."HOLD YOUR GROUND!" I scream trying to get my soldiers back in formation, but in front of us the boy has made giant spikes of ice that are heading towards us, they are so big that they are breaking right out of the building.Seeing them come at me I try to fire a cannonball through my shield, but it is too late as the spikes hit us and completely break our disrupted formation.Many of my men are sent flying back, I hunker down and scream, "STAND YOUR GROUND, MY SOLDIERS, VICTORY IS WITHIN REACH!"As I scream, I see all of the ice

Φ As Easifatan approaches Orb, he runs up to meet him halfway and begins to clash. He is keeping up with Easifatan even with his body in such a state, what kind of monster is he?"All the more reason to end him here." Using my whip, I support Easifatan from afar. Whenever Easifatan has an opening, I strike Orb to make sure he can't take advantage of it, and if he ever tries to move away from Easifatan I can block his exit.Seeing an opening I try to strike Orb in his lower back but he backflips over my whip while kicking Easifatan in the chin, and then immediately he creates a large amount of snow everywhere.Orb made an opening on purpose so I would jump at it and throw off our balance, he got me. The snow Orb creates covers all of the floor around me.Easifatan says, "I knew he still had power left.""Don't worry, whatever this is must be the last of his legacies power, he will be finished in a few moments."Around us the snow starts to shape into walls, they are all so tall that ev

As quietly as I can I sneak around the building. It hasn't been that long since I was locked up, so there might be a chance they haven't reached Orb, I need to go find him quickly.Seeing guards walk by I hide myself and wait for them to pass then I quickly sneak away; my stealth is still as amazing as ever. As I continue down the building, I see a door labelled; Armory.So I open it and walk in, after looking around for a moment I see my bow is just placed down on the floor to the side. Picking it up, I say, "How dare they do this to my baby!""Don't worry, I will discipline the idiots who just left it there later." That was Naji's voice!Turning around I immediately shoot arrows, but the old man behind me easily deflects them, then says while striking me in the stomach, "Attacking an old man, is quite heartless."His attack is so powerful that I fly through the wall of the room and end up in a hallway. Recoiling from the blow, I get up and start shooting arrows while saying, "Hittin

"Anto let's go.""Right!"Jumping off my back Anto goes left while I go right, then immediately I start to shoot arrows and Anto starts to shoot lighting at Adi. Taking his arm Adi wraps it around himself to block our attacks, but his arm leaves a gap around his back which it doesn't cover.Running faster I continuously shoot at Adi, which causes him to face my direction leaving his back exposed to Anto. Noticing this Adi constantly has to change directions and move backwards to defend himself.Shooting more arrows, I start to curve some of my shoots making my arrows fly all around him and strike Adi from various directions. Unable to keep up with all my arrows, I start to land a few shoots all across Adi's body.Φ If the woman can hit me from any direction, I am better off focusing all my defence on the little boy. Turning to face the little boy, I see him running all over and shooting lightning out of Easifatan daggers, he is fast but his accuracy with the daggers is off.As he keep

-Break-Φ Using snowboost I lunge at the old man and try to slash him, but when I get close, I am grabbed and thrown into a wall. Getting up I move as fast as I can from wall to wall and try again, but almost as if he has rhythmically synched with my body he parries my arm then swings into my body and hits me in the stomach with his elbow, which blows me back.He keeps using my own momentum against me, and then he translates that force into rotational energy and blows it back at me.Trying to get up I fall back down to my knees and spit up some blood."Are you done?""Not a chance baldly," I say getting up. All I can do is keep at him.As I constantly press my attack the old man says, "You're eyes are always watching my every move, and your focus as you strike your target is unmatched, not to mention the unnatural senses that allow you to react to my every move, I am guessing those are from your legacy."Striking me in the hip I slide backwards, then I immediately increase my speed an

-Break-Φ Looking up at the man in front of me, I tremble on the ground. As the dragon tears through the rest of the soldiers in front of me, I say, "How can you be so strong?" Before passing out.Φ With as much force as I can muster I swing my sword against the soldiers in front of me breaking their shield. Then seeing a volley of arrows fly towards me, I let out a roar which blows them all away.Then I jump up and crash down over the archers shattering the floor on impact. Turning around I see tiny women run at me with curved swords, but I simply stand still and let the swords hit me and as they do they break into pieces.With a shaky voice, one of the women says, "You monster!?" Then immediately after I let an ear rendering scream which forces the women to their knees.Seeing everyone unconscious I continue down the hallway they came through. After a few seconds I enter a large room with a giant door in the distance, and in front of that door is the largest amount of soldiers I hav

"WHY DOES THAT MATTER!"With a voice much louder than mine, Asha says, "PARIBANOU!" Which causes me to quiet down. "You're a mere lizard of 7 years, so listen well to these words; The reason this city carries your family name is because long ago the dragon god gave your great grandpa this city as his own, a sign of respect of the highest order. But that was given as a sign of the Damavand family's strength at the time, strength is what allows you to hold such a title and rule over the dragons of Damavand, not blood.If that strength vanishes or is seen as fractured, any dragon is allowed to come and take all you are including your pathetic lives, and being killed by a human is enough of a shame to warrant such an act. The greatest sign of disrespect for your heritage as dragons."As I understand his words my heart starts to race, then I ask, "So what am I supposed to do?""Even after all that you still ask for help?" Sighing he says, "I will think of this as the last favour I do towar

When was the last time we even played outside."Running up to me from down the corridor Cyrus hugs my leg and says, "Mo-o-o-other."Picking him up, I say, "Cyrus don't you remember what I told you about calling me mother? Bad boy."Freaking out in my arms Cyrus says, "S-S-S-Sorry," then starts to cry.Panicked, I say, "Please don't cry Cyrus, I didn't mean anything bad by it.""PARIBANOU!!!" I hear someone shout.Turning around I look outside the window and see that the kids have been playing, and are shouting at me, "We haven't seen you in a couple of days.""Come play wit

Arc 10.112: Ferdiad part 4
He was a rough and harsh man who cared only for himself the entire night. I had learned to wait through it when it came to people like him with a smile.He mumbled countless things to inflate himself as many others did, and I just responded with confirmation and an accepting face as I always did, but then he randomly came to a stop and asked me one question, "Am I better than my brother?"The face he gave me as he said this wasn't one of arrogance or pride, it wasn't one of a man looking for some sick pleasure in taking the woman who his brother sees as property, it was that of a man who was one moment away from breaking down.Seeing his expression I was shocked to silence and didn't answer his question which caused him to tear up and say, "I knew it, even in this moment I can still never beat him at anything."He collapsed in on me and started crying. I don't know if it was the shock of the situation or an instinct buried deep within me, but when I saw this man cry like he had just r

Swatting her away, I say, "I have no more time for the tricks of you snakes!"Pouting, she says, "I have no tricks, I would have you know that I just hate waste, and right now you're wasting your life.""It's none of your business how I live my life.""But my Faoláin blood is just commanding me to fix the misalignment in front of me."Turning to her, I say, "Faoláin blood?"Getting close to me again, she says, "My mother was a Faoláin, the wife of Bricriu.""That's impossible all of the Faoláin's except for Lugh were killed!"Dancing around like a fairy, "She was a woman named Airmedh a beautiful warrior who despite her gender was poised to be the next head of the Faoláin's for a time. The Faoláin head at the time cared very little for tradition. He favoured results. and she had many.Before Medb came there was a good chance she would be the first woman to ever be in charge of one of the four providences, and while many opposed this, many thought it made her the most precious jewel in
Arc 10.110: Keepsake part 3
Looking at me, the boy says, "You should have raised this boy to learn more respect, because that was completely ridiculous.""I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT FROM SOMEONE WHO GOES AROUND HITTING CHILDREN!"I instantly move towards my son and help him up, "Don't worry Kian, mommy is here. Does it hurt anywhere; do you need me to kiss your wound?"Pushing me back, he says, "Stop being so annoying and get off of me you old witch."The boy hits Kian back into the ground, and says, "Don't take that tone with your mother you brat, or I will be making sure you don't get up again after my next blow!"Ryan says, "Why are you here young man?"With a cocky smile, he says, "Wouldn't you like to know?"Emma takes off her shoes and then moves towards the boy to whack him, but Ryan stops her and she says, "Just let me give him one good whack to straighten out his head.""You can't do that, just look at how he carries himself he is obviously some sort of noble brat.""We already have one unruly brat to de

That's why I accepted the request you made that day."Ryan, would you join me for the Laochs campaign?""Brother so far, we have only gone on monster hunting and slave catching with our band. Going to war, especially for the Laoch who have near-suicide tactics wouldn't be sane."Getting on his hands and knees, Cian says, "I know this might sound reckless, but I need the money.""Money? You know Mom and Dad will give you money for whatever you do.""Niamh is pregnant. They were close to kicking me out of the family when I married her. In their heads, they still think their perfect little boy will one day marry someone of high status and bring them prestige, so if they found out I got her pregnant I am sure they would maltreat her or even worse try something against her.So, I need to make as much money as possible and support my new family, and get her, my child, and you away from our heartless parents. I know this is selfish but there is no warrior I would ask to be by my side outside

-One week Later-Location: Village of EasΦ I believe in true love.It is something I have always kept in my heart ever since I was a little girl.It isn't for any complex reason in the slightest, but just because my parents were always happy when next to each other.Both of them were strong people by themselves who could have lived fruitful lives on their own. Yet they choose to join together and the reactions that were caused by their union have made so much happiness that even people who don't know them can partake in it.The power of love is something that can bind people together, some think of it as a chain, but I think of it as a string. It is delicate and must be maintained because there is nothing easier to do than to break it.When I see two people who have gone through the effort to keep it maintained my heart just melts. I want that, I really do. So, during my younger years, I would spend my day playing with the little pixie wonderbeasts to look like a majestic beauty mys

"Now as part two of my master plan, I will elicit a second grand reaction from you, and you will become so enthralled that you will answer all my questions. GENIUS, I SAY, GENIUS!""Danu must have blessed you with great amounts of beauty if you're also this dumb.""You think I am beautiful. Oh, you dirty dog trying to seduce me like that.""Women really only hear what they want to," I mutter under my breath.Getting up, she says, "Now as part two of my part two of my plan allow me to dance on your spine and get all of the evil out of your body!""Really how cool, just let me assume the position-, HELL NO!""Why? Shouldn't such an opportunity be appealing to your beastlike senses, you dirty dog.""Not a dog, and I don't like being stepped on by strange girls.""So, you like being stepping on?"Pausing for a moment, I say, "The idea of Minagrain sitting on my face is rather hot, but aside from that I don't care for such things."With a shaky, and surprized voice, she says, "Mother was r

Looking at Ferdiad, I say, "What do you mean fight?""You heard me, now let's start," he says as he lunges at me.I pick up Ibar and Laeg and move away from his attack then plant them on the ground and say, "Do you even know what you're doing Ferdiad!""Of course I do. You put my sister through hell, so I am going to take it out on you."Ferdiad is extremely emotional right now, far more than I have ever seen him. But at the same time there is a rage that hides behind it all, seeing this causes me to ask, "Is that the reason you're doing this?""Red branch battle arts; Star flower."He lunges forward again, and I barely manage to dodge the seven strikes, with three grazing my body.He then tries to sweep my legs with his spear, but I jump up and kick him in the face, and ask again, "Ferdiad it has been a while since we have been able to fight, so show me what you got."He smirks and then charges at me again, and at that same moment, I charge forward.Φ Setanta and Ferdiad begin to cla

"I don't feel like talking to a man such as you," I say while avoiding eye contact."What a mean thing to say, especially since it was my daughter who singlehandedly stopped you from being killed by the next head of the house of Laoch.""I think you have that backwards, Setanta would have killed Niall all by himself.""I am sure he would have if he didn't have giant weights tying him down. If Niall and the rest of his men had all attacked Setanta he would have died protecting the rest of you, I can assure you of that."Spinning my head to face him, I say, "Is there a reason you are pestering me with this?""Not really, I just think you have the funniest reactions."I grit my teeth and then say, "Ok then vanish."Bricriu looks at all my men training and says, "The fact that you a normal beastkin have the authority to train a unit filled with such great talent is amazing. Truly a light in the dark for the rest of the Fir Bolg.Setanta was right to take such a keen interest in you becaus
Arc 10.104: The Golden wolf part 7
Aurelius looks ahead of himself to see that Setanta's body is rather furry and is much more animalistic than human. Despite Setanta's body retaining a humanoid shape, his face is next to indifferent to a human, with the exception of his ears.Setanta looks at Aurelius and says, "What's wrong.""I just thought you were a normal beastkin but are you a Fanalis?"Setanta laughs a bit, then says, "I am a normal beastkin."Culainn then says, "I think you're under a misconception that a lot of kids fall under.""Well, I am sorry I didn't have an education in beastkin anatomy."Culainn says, "Being a Fanalis or not isn't as simple as one would think. It isn't a box to check but more of a spectrum. With one end being Fanalis and the other being human.As beastkin, we consider anyone whose head resembles that of an animal or has gone through intense animalistic changes to be a Fanalis. Because in those cases far more of their brain resembles animals than any other type of beastkin.""I see, so
