-Break-As the party rages on behind me I sit in a secluded area and eat food slowly. Every single bite I take makes me hurt even more, "This is really bad.""What is?" I hear from my side.Turning to face Suzuka, I put on my best facade and say, "It isn't nice to sneak up on people like that."Shyly, she says, "Sorry Orb."Noticing her strange body language, I say, "Is something wrong?""It is just that there are too many people Orb, I can't deal with this I am going to have a heart attack. Please help me!!"Hearing her heart beating louder and louder, I say, "Ok then let's go together.""Wait Orb, I need to emotionally prepare myself."Standing up, I say, "Hesitation is defeat!!!"Straightening up, she says, "Your right!!"Grabbing her hand, I say, "Now let's go look around."As I jolt out of the area I am in, I look and then say, "If we go around, we might find a place where we can insert you into a conversation. Over there is Maple, maybe she could help.""No, No, No, No, NO, she

Running around I turn and look for a conversation I can insert Suzuka in. No not that one, those guys are way too deep in conversation, what about them? no; they are talking about things I would rather not have Suzuka hear.But soon I see a target and say, "There!"Φ "What is it Buloke?""Jute I just wanted to apologize."Being coy, I say, "Whatever could you mean?""I should have noticed the fact you cut your hair shorter, that's my fault."Behind me Holly, Juniper, and Acadia whisper, "Now they are going to passionately kiss and make up.""Just like always.""It is standard practice at this point."Turning around, I shout, "SHUT UP. Now Buloke, continue.""All in all, Jute, I just wanted to say, I am so sor-." Suddenly Buloke is drop-kicked in the face by Orb, sending him into the ground.Looking directly at me, Orb says, "Hey Jute how are you doing?""Orb, what the hell was that?""I just needed to talk to you as soon as possible, it definitely wasn't revenge for him beating the sh

-Break-Talking in the ambience of everything around me, I say, "How peaceful this is."Suddenly I feel something soft crash into me, then moments later I hear, "You three are cuddling up without me!""There she is to ruin the day!""Sorry Atalanta me and Orb were just taking a moment to rest."Hugging Suzuka, Atalanta says, "I know you wouldn't leave me out due to mal intent, but I am sure Orb would.""Your right, that sounds exactly like something I would do."Draping her body over Cyrus, she says, "See how much of a bully Orb is, save me, Cyrus!"Suzuka says, "And he is a manwhore!"They both start to chant, "Bully, manwhore, bully, manwhore, bully, manwhore, bully, manwhore!""Hey, stop slandering my name you two!!"Puffing her cheeks and turning her face away, Atalanta says, "Cyrus tell the doggy I won't be talking to him for the foreseeable future.""That sounds perfectly fine to me."Crying she says, "I hate you!!!!"Staring at her, I say, "You are acting a little looser than u

As she finishes speaking a bad feeling washes over my body. This girl is trouble I can feel it in my bones, but more than that the little girl shaking in arms reminds me of myself when I was with Orb.Should I run? No, I am no longer scared of anyone! My plan will go off perfectly and I will be safe, so I should just continue."The place where I lived was struck by a disease that killed countless people, and to my misfortune, my mother was struck by the same disease.So me and my father worked day after day to afford medicine for her, the work was intense, it took up so much of my time that the only solace I had was entertaining, a boy and a girl.When we came home from work, she would crack the both of us a smile, then we would stay by her side until she fell asleep.Then when she did, I would run into the forest and pick out Kastabag flowers; it was crimson and navy flower that is said to sprout when lighting strikes soil with high amounts of metal in it. My country was known for it

-Break-Φ Hiding in her corner detach from everyone, Suzuka says whilst freaking out, "SPARROW WAS SO HANDSOME! Looking at his rugged face almost made me faint, if he saw me, I would have died from embarrassment."Calming down, I say, "Well, in all honesty, I was embarrassing myself anyways, I have barely been able to talk to any of these people, I mostly have just been following Orb around like a lost puppy."Digging my head into my knees, I say, "I can't do anything right except fight.""You are being too kind to yourself."Turning my head, I say, "Gozy!""The only thing you can do is fight, but when was the last time you fought, You dumb fox!""But I fell unconscious.""That's your own fault, it is because you couldn't deal with the mental strain, and due to that all your friends had to fight alone, and due to that Cyrus's sister died.""But.""Atalanta lost her arm.""I wa-.""And Orb fell unconscious. You weren't even there to help them when they needed you most you idiot, and no

While the crowd disperses, I sit down and say, "Now I need to get into contact with that creepy old grandma Ai."Iancu asks, "Why would you do that?""Sparrow said he has been spreading a bunch of information about the village of Aplos around, and because of all of that now people are going start wandering into and around Fimbulwinter which is an issue for my plans going forward. I am going to use my favour from that old lady to spread a false rumour that there is no one from Fimbulwinter.""But didn't some of your people get sold to Basileia, people would know they exist.""Basileia is in shambles and very few people can confirm that people from Aplos were even there. So the only question now is how to contact her?"Suzuka says, "I know how to contact her."Turning our heads towards, Suzuka we say, "How?"From her clothes, she pulls out a kaidenwa, then says, "I have this here, a special Kaidenwa that only connects to Ai."Confused, I say, "Why do you have that?""Ai gave it to me an

What does that matter.""IT MATTERS A LOT."The strange boy called Iancu says, "If anything Orb, isn't it nice to have your sister move on? Some of us would wish to have our sisters shipped off to marry someone."Grabbing his cheeks, the nice girl Elia says, "Iancu who might you ever be talking about?"Looking at them I freeze for a second; They're siblings!!!Atalanta says, "But we all knew Maple and Willow were already in love with each other so what difference does this make?""IT MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE. I wanted to go to their wedding and have fun talking to everyone, I wanted to plan a whole lot of events to make it fun and memorable and now I will never get to do that!!!!"Atalanta says, "Orb are you crying?"With a shaky voice, Orb says, "No I'm."Walking up to the

-Break-Continent: Northern edge of Terrafide.Location: FimbulwinterΦ Feeling a tap on my head, I hear, "Guāng wake up."Immediately opening my eyes, I see our leader Casandra staring at me with an annoyed expression. Embarrassed, I ask, "Did I fall asleep?""Like a storybook princess."Beside the leader, the large man known as Thorgrim laughs and then says, "I thought one of us would have to kiss you awake."Even more embarrassed, I say, "Sorry!" While bowing.Beside me, the girl, named Anouk says, "In all honesty, you being asleep made all of us have a better ride since your shaking was bothering the hell out of me.""Sorry.""Could you stop fucking apologizing?"Scared, I say, "SORRY!""DIDN'T I SAY STOP."Thorgrim says, "Well who could blame him Anouk, you are much worse than any beast we've fought.

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

-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
