Rise of the Fallen Son-in-law Chapter 1: Tough choices
The Blackwoods gathered in their grand hall, feasting and laughing as they always did. But even as they enjoyed their opulence, they couldn't help but feel a twinge of resentment toward their lowly son-in-law, Markus. They snickered at his shabby clothes and mocked his lack of refinement. "You're nothing more than a peasant," sneered Lord Blackwood, the head of the family. "You'll never amount to anything in this world. You're lucky we even let you marry our daughter.""I may not be as refined as you, but I have something you'll never have," replied Markus, his eyes flashing with defiance. "I have the favor of the gods. You can mock me all you want, but you'll never be able to touch me. I'm beyond your reach.""You arrogant fool!" snapped Lady Blackwood, her face reddening with anger.The Blackwoods were among the wealthiest and most powerful families in the land, and they looked down on Markus with scorn. He was of humble birth, and his lack of wealth and status were an affront to th

But it was only a momentary setback, and the dragon soon regained its footing.The dragon swiped at him with its massive claws, and he just barely managed to duck out of the way.

Rise of the Fallen Son-in-law Chapter 4: The trial
The sentries from Capital City of Precipice arrived at Markus's home, their faces grim and unsmiling. They explained that he was to be brought before the governor, to answer for his actions."What have I done?" asked Markus, his heart sinking. "I only did what I thought was right.""The people are in danger because of you," said the lead sentry. "And the governor demands an explanation."Celeste's eyes flashed with anger. "He is the god of war!" she exclaimed. "You saw the dragon! Surely that must mean something!"The governor waved a dismissive hand. "Anyone can tame a dragon, if they know the right incantations," he said. "It is not proof of divinity.""But he saved me!" cried Celeste, her voice breaking. "He is not the one who has put us in danger. It is the god killers who threaten us all!""Enough!" roared the president, slamming his fist on the table. "You will not speak out of turn, girl! And as for you, boy," he said, turning to Markus."You have put our people in danger," said
Rise of the Fallen Son-in-law Chapter 5: Raid
As Markus approached the governor's office, his injured leg throbbed with pain. He knew that he was in no shape to fight, but he also knew that he had no choice. The governor might have respected him for his courage and resolve, but he made it clear that there was still a long road ahead."You've shown great bravery," the governor said, "but you still have much to learn. You must train hard, and prove yourself worthy of the power you wield. If you fail, you could endanger us all."The words struck a chord in Markus."I know," said Markus, his voice heavy with exhaustion. He was still reeling from the battle, and the governor's words only added to his fatigue. But he knew that the governor was right. He had a lot of work ahead of him, and he could not afford to falter. He would have to train harder than ever before, to become the god of war that his people needed."You have the potential," said the governor, his voice firm but not unkind. "But you must be willing to put in the effort."

Celeste looked at the king, her eyes cold. "I will never submit to you," she said, her voice trembling but resolute. "I would rather die than be with you."The king's eyes flashed with rage. "So be it," he said, his voice low and dangerous. "You will starve in this room until you are nothing but skin and bones."I know you want to break me," said Celeste, "but you won't succeed. I am stronger than you think. You may starve my body, but you will never break my spirit."The king growled in frustration. "We shall see," he said.
