Work, Cyrus, Study, Work, Cyrus, Study, Work, Cyrus, Study, Work, Cyrus, Study, Work, Cyrus, Study, Work, Cyrus, Study, WORK, CYRUS, STUDY!For 3 years this is all my life had devolved into, except that the time I spent with Cyrus only grew as he got older, and being around him felt as if someone was choking me.Staring out the window of the corridor, I see the kids my age playing outside, "How I wish I could join. 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

With Cyrus in my arms, I walk forward with a heavy heart. Will I be able to do this, will I be able to keep this a secret from all the other dragons, where should I go, will I be able to find the medicine I need?Stopping in one place my eyes open as I realize. The murderer of my parents could be right here, he could be watching us, hunting us at this very moment. The image of my parents corpses flashes through my head and I start to shake."S-S-S-S-Sister!" Cyrus says while coughing.Composing myself I say, "Don't speak, just rest." I don't have time to be worried, I have lived my life to make him happy, so his life is my number 1 priority.I move forward throughout the lands. The human soil is poor, I doubt the vegetation of Avesta could grow here. The air purity is also a lot worse; I am finding it a lot harder to breathe, I also don't understand the purpose of all the vast open areas here, in Avesta they exist so people can use their dragon forms, but since humans don't take up mu

As the humans all rush towards me, I throw the cart towards them. Which causes the ones it landed on to stop, but the rest of them simply move towards me.Then I as they approach, I see their speed suddenly increase, spirit arts? Keeping my eyes on their sword I dodge away, but then I am hit in my stomach by his fist.Seeing the rest of the scum running towards me, I let out a roar with all the might I had. When it reaches the humans, they all fall to their knees; now is my chance to run.As I try to move my feet a collapse to my knees yet again. I can't move, my strength is completely gone."YOU ANNOYING BITCH," is what I hear as I am kicked in the face.Looking up I see the leader of these humans towering over me. "Hold her down."Lots of different humans pile on top of me and keep me still. "Let go of me, you dirty humans.""Say that again bitch," Is what one of the men on top of me says raising his fist.But then as he strikes my face his hand starts to bleed. As he screams in pai

10 minutes later."Hey, I was pouring my heart out and you just pushed me down again. You could have at least helped me out."Eating my cadavre, I say, "The only cure for stupidity is death.""Murder shouldn't be that quick an option for you to consider, at least think it over a little bit."Stopping my meal, I say, "I am surprised a human like you could survive such a fall twice.""You underestimate me, I happen to be pretty amazing.""Don't get ahead of yourself, most dragons could easily survive such a fall without a scratch."Sitting beside me again he says, "Well that's funny because I just so happen to have dragon blood flowing through my veins.""At least when you lie try and make it convincing human."Annoyingly, he says, "I am not lying!""Human men's seed would immediately break down in a dragon's womb, and if a dragon male got a human pregnant the baby would suck all of the women's nutrients till she dies, so it is impossible.""But my family's coat of arms has a dragon on

Lunging towards me the old man strikes, my body which sends the rotational energy inside of me. But I counter with a kick sending him right into the wall, then I follow up my attack by creating giant ice spikes infused with spirit energy.Following him through the wall, I say, "Has your lower back given out yet?""Don't mock what will one day happen to you." With his legs he does a sweeping kick around himself which causes chunks of the wall and my ice to fly up towards his head, then with another spin kick the chunks get sent flying my way.Dodging out of the way, I see the chunks break the ice behind me; it seems he passed on the rotational energy to all those chunks he kicked. I continue to dodge while flipping back and forth to build up rotational energy.Then when I see an opening, I instantly infuse my legs with spirit energy and snow boost towards the old man, when I reach him, I slam my fist right in his stomach and send all my rotational energy into him. This causes him to fl

As Orb stares down at me, I hear the king's chains rush towards us but in that moment, Orb creates a ridiculous amount of ice creating a wall of ice to form in the room.Looking down at me, Orb asks, "Cyrus why are you lying down on the floor, you're sister is right there?"With the tears overflowing, I say, "Because my sister hates me. I thought all this time she loved being together with me as much as I loved being with her, but it was all a lie, the entire time she was miserable.And it is because I am so pathetic that I had to use her for everything, that I relied on her to always do all the hard things for me like a parasite. My weakness caused her so much sadness that she wanted to stay far away from me.I tried to change but even with all the time and strength I was blessed with I couldn't, and even when I was freed I just ended up relying on you instead. Everything about me is disgusting."Staring at Orb, I see him making a pondering face then moments later he says, "Yeah that

Looking at her bow, I see she has a legacy acting on it. Annoyed I say, "What the hell is that?""Oh, my bow, I polished it a bit before I came here so it looked extra shiny.""WHY THE HELL WOULD I BE TALKING ABOUT THAT? I am talking about the legacy on your bow." Squatting down I start to scratch my head and say, "THIS FREAKING IDIOT!!! Right now, tell me if you have any more secrets, I need to know them right this instant."Acting coy she says, "Orb a woman needs to have som sec-.""YOU'VE ALREADY USED THAT EXCUSE!"Surprised she says, "Calm down Orb, anger isn't a good look. Oh, crap I am sorry, it must be that time of the month."Grabbing her by the collar, I say, "I AM A BOY. You know you're an annoying liability, so why don't I do some pest control right now!""Ok, in truth, my worst secret is this," She says gesturing me to come close. When I pull my ear close to her mouth, she whispers, "My underboob sweat smells pretty nice."Jumping up, I head butt her in the head, which cau

"What are you doing brother, that was on my order?"Standing on the table, he shouts, "SHUT THE HELL UP BRAT!!!! I don't care for the words of a boy who would execute someone over such a thing." Stretching his face, he sticks out his tongue and goes, "BLEH!!!"Irritated, my father says, "Hussain will you ever stop being an annoyance.""Will you ever get off your high horse? And what the hell do you think gives you the right to kill a person?""How many times must I tell you the same simple thing? The wishes of exalted beings such as us should always come first, that is simply the way it shou-."Before my father can finish my brother throws shit in his face, seeing this my mother screams."Use that as fertilizer, maybe it will help you outgrow your stupidity, Father."Standing up, I toss the food off my table and say, "How dare you do th-."My brother slaps me directly in the face interrupting my words, then says, "Never waste food, you idiot!!!"Wiping the shit off his face, my father

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

-Break-Location: Culainn's BlacksmithsΦ As we walk through the streets the people of Gorias yell my praises."Setanta the destroyer of the Laochs.""Setanta the future kings!""The protector of all who live within the empire.""Cú Culainn!""The silver wolf of the victory.""Our future hero king.""The one who shall conquer the east."As they speak and celebrate whilst a walk with Aurelius who holds Culainn on his back, I say, "THIS IS WHAT I WAS WAITING FOR!"Culainn says, "We get beaten up, and you grow more famous, life truly isn't fair."Aurelius says, "But we're lucky to be alive at least.""You are lucky to be alive. So now I want to go stay with my hot wife.""Well, I haven't been able to meet with my hot wife yet, so we all stay single together!""Don't lump me in with the both of you."Aurelius and Culainn say, "Minagrain," and instantly all the energy in my legs fades and I fall to the ground."Low blow.""Someone needs to take down your ego every now and then."Reaching h

Aurelius looked up at me with a pained and frustrated expression. It is the face of someone who has had to swallow a harsh reality that they would rather reject under all circumstances."What? Is the truth hard to hear? Well as you said people are free to make whatever choices they want, so if she didn't like it, she could have just killed herself couldn't she have.""Setanta shut the hell up!""But you would hate that wouldn't you, you want her to be alive and suffer through all of that, just so you can make her pump out her fifth set of kids that look like you don't you."He raises his fist to punch me, and as he does, I say, "Hit me all you want but understand that the only reason you can is because I let you. You're no different than a pet biting its master in this moment, you can get as sad and angry as you want but your survival demands good behaviour.Even after all I said you still want to live so bad that you won't punish me for my words.

The beastkin rushes at Setanta from all sides, and he fights and fights and fights.Red Branch battle arts; Starflower, Clover, Tulip, Sky flower, Sonic thrust, Camellia Japonica, Passiflora, Morning Glory.Again and again, he uses the forms of his style to strike down the foes who come for his neck, using whatever weapons he can, even his own flesh.His weapons and flesh break down from this constant battle, but Setanta doesn't stop until he starts to push them back.Scared by this Dáire rookies rush back in to help him and his men, and the fight rages on even more.They come towards Setanta again, and again ripping his flesh out which causes Setanta to scream in pain again and again. But never falls.To all those who see this sight fear and awe is put in their hearts as they await for him to crumble down and simply give up, but again and again he rises to strike down more and more beastkin until, the very foes he is fighting start to feel more strain then he does.The rookies, the e

Setanta lands and the moment he does, he moves to the crowd and grabs a knife from one of the members of the mob who are all holding miscellaneous weapons. Then he moves towards Culainn and Aurelius pulling them out of harm's way."You ok old man, do you need some worms?"Culainn looks at Setanta and says, "Don't make fun of birds you stupid wolf."Setanta smiles, then gets up and faces Dáire, then he says, "First son of the Lugh Ó Faoláin, next head of the house of Faoláin and the next king of Gorias, Setanta Ó Faoláin. I give you only until the next time I blink to explain to me what just happened to my compatriots."Blinking, he says, "Times up."Setanta glares at all of them with a ferocity that makes many of them except Dáire elite warriors shudder in fear.Dáire looks at Setanta, and says, "Son of Lugh, a human was caught walking in our lands, and will be judged by the rules of it.""This is Biorg land.""But this is the providence of Findias, so it still all falls under the con

"But before that, I will thank the brave warrior who put his life at risk to warn of this traitor's location."Both me and Aurelius look confused, but then the beastkin holding down Daragh let him go and he comes over to Dáire.Aurelius seeing this says, "Daragh, what's going on?""The tunnel we passed through on our way here releases orange dust when one makes lots of noise within it, and as our horses went through it the orange dust was released everywhere showing our pursuers that we had gone off the main path and had taken a shortcut. Any member of the village would be aware of this.""You sold us out?"With a disgusted expression, Daragh says, "Of course I did you human. No matter how I am treated I know not to make deals with the devil that could curse all my people."Daragh walks away and as he does a man comes out from the mob of people throughout the forest, and says, "Good work my son, you have truly shown that it was worth raising you."As his father rubs his head, he makes

Location: Outer edge of the Village of Lann BhuanΦ Grooming the hair of the horses by the riverside, I say, "Sorry for Setanta's nonsense, we are lucky he managed to catch you from the air when we fell off that Clift. But don't hold it against him, the little boy seems to be in a dire strait."Beside me Daragh comes up and looks at the horses, so I turn to him and say, "Do you want to touch one?""Can I!" He says with a bright expression.Picking him up, I hold him near the horse and say, "Horses are very highly perceptive, and will sense distrust. So, make sure to earnestly approach.""I will."He slowly brings his hands close and then touches its head. As he does the horse playfully rubs its head against Daragh's hand, and he looks back at me whilst saying, "He is touching me back! I think he likes me!""You're right about that, it seems he senses what a good man you are."Daragh looks at the horse, and says, "They never let me go near one back at home. Horses are animals which are

-Break-Location: In the forest by the eastern edge of the areaΦ Through the threes a swarm of beastkin dressed in black ropes move from tree to tree, each coming from different directions but all of them converging to the same spot.Soon all of them land in front of a beastkin, a bursting bear beastkin. Then in that moment, they peer their heads up where they see their leader and an entire army of men in front of them.The man who sits at the front of the army says, "Speak."All of the men in the robes shut their mouths except one, who says, "I have located Culainn and the human, they are currently in a small village and are isolated from any other people.""Good, it seems we should be able to carry out Ciarán's request easily enough on the former head of his house."Getting up the man says, "Everyone gets your weapons ready; we will be leaving when the sun sets."As the man walks away one of the beastkin dressed in robes says, "Is this a good idea?"Their leader stops and turns aro
