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 10.112: 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

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
Arc 10.108: Keepsake part 1
-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
Arc 10.106: Ferdiad part 2
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
