STEEL AND FLESH THE SECRET OF THE DRAGON EGG HANGS ON THE BALANCE.
Lord Mordian gasped when he heard of the approaching guards. He was totally distablized due to the current situation with the King's guards making advances to check on their King who was now a red fiery grim looking monster dragon. Lord Mordian struggled to accept the fact that this red fiery dragon was about to be exposed to the Azarian world, a secret that three generations of the Bauthinian Kings protected from their subjects, allies and even members of their families (King Lauihnio decided to let the secret of the dragon egg to be known to King Rashur of Mocini and the arch cytix priest). However Lord Mordian shook his head swiftly warding off thoughts of his greatest fear coming to life, he managed to comport himself as he began to think of the possibility of saving the delicate secret of the dragon egg discovered by his grandfather King Lunserk and saving his fellow Bauthinians here at the capital and others that resided in other provinces that were subjects to the Bauthinian c
STEEL AND FLESH THE SUSPICION AND CONFRONTATION
"A few of you go fetch some water, the rest come give us a hand." Lord Garthine Polion ordered. The soldiers stood still in confusion. After about three heartbeats the soldiers turned to the captain. He nodded at them signalling them to do as they were commanded."Go and inform the cytix priests and make sure the holy men are here to -""That is not what your chief commander ordered captain, I know everything here looks suspicious to you but I beg you to listen to your commander because the safety of Bauthinia depends on your total obedience at this moment - please." Lord Mordian begged.The captain stood there motionless and silent for a while then he turned to the soldiers. "Do as the chief commander says lads." He ordered. "You four go fetch some water, the rest of you let us help them put out the fire." He continued.Note that the reason the soldiers acted strangely towards the orders of Lord Garthine Polion who was the chief commander was not because of disrespect but because th
STEEL AND FLESH THE COVER UP
"Lord Garthine Polion just say the word and it will be my uttermost pleasure to eliminate this threat to the throne of Bauthinia!" The captain squeezed his face with his sword at the ready eagerly waiting for Lord Garthine Polion to give the order his itching ears longed to hear.Upon analyzing how far captain Panthios confrontation towards Lord Mordian had gone, with the former overcomed with lust for Lord Mordian's blood showing his eagerness to kill him, Lord Garthine Polion stood up and walked to the captain. "Panthios!" He bellowed. "Like I told you before, enough of this ranting because you will get nothing out of it." He continued.My Lord chief commander I only intend to perform my duty as a soldier which is to defend Bauthinia from all threats that are meant to undermine its peace, progress and security - it is also my duty to do everything possible to protect the Bauthinian crown from ambitious scumbags such as this grey, old, weak, schemer of a man standing right in front
STEEL AND FLESH REMEDY FOR THE KING
"Do it Panthios, he is your prince." Lord Garthine Polion said softly.Captain Panthios frowned, then he turned to Lord Mordian. After staring coldly at him for a while, he knelt down. "I am sorry Lord Mordian, my emotions got the better of me, I promise you such act of disrespect will never come from me again." He said while he looked downwards."You just saved your ass by doing so, however your apology is not accepted." Lord Mordian said casually, moving away from the captain to were King Lauihnio was, leaving the captain with a red face, embarrassed, However with Lord Mordian moving towards King Lauihnio the already enraged captain jumped up to attack him from behind but he was restrained by lord Garthine Polion.Hearing strange movements behind him Lord Mordian looked back and when he saw he saw Lord Garthine Polion's hand on captain Panthios chest which prevented him from making another step forward he smiled and shook his head. "If you dare create a scene in this place hereby d
STEEL AND FLESH BAJAN INFILTRATOR
Lord Mordian frowned staring malevolently at Aht Net Patu the Bajan while he held tight his dagger. "Who sent you?" He asked.The Bajan chuckled. "If I tell you, you would not believe me." He picked up a rusted sword and examined it, thereafter he slowly ran the sharp edge of sword across his right palm causing a blue thick liquid to flow thus confirming the fact that he was a Bajan "Wow this is really sharp." He said carelessly.Lord Mordian's heart raced quickening his heartbeat. "Well that was not the question I asked, I said who sent you." He struggled to sound confident. "Let me guess, you Bajan's have decided to take interest in our affairs, why is that so? - huh." "Well I am sorry to burst your bubble but that is far from the truth. Anyway I haven't turned into a Bajan yet and you are all scared, I am sure you must have pissed your pants by now - you look scared as a rat, however why were you so quick to believe me when I told you I was a Bajan - huh?Lord Mordian was silent.
STEEL AND FLESH GARNEM HYPNOSIO
The Bajan lowered the sharp rusted edge of his sword and jabbed the wicked points towards Lord Mordian's throat. He ducked the effort, aiming his dagger at the side of the Bajan causing him to groan lightly. Meanwhile Lord Mordian stepped backwards to avoid being exposed to further blows from the Bajan. However with that time and space Lord Mordian counted himself lucky to have found a sword on the floor. He picked it up and made his stance looking prepared for the possible blows the Bajan will throw at him. Lord Mordian could not doubt the fact that the dragon egg he held at his side was a burden to him in this struggle for survival against the Bajan but he knew the great risk that would be posed on his country if he had let it slip, even for a second.The Bajan rubbed his side which received the impact of Lord Mordian's dagger and with vengeful anger he looked at his blue blood stained hand. He pointed his sword at Lord Mordian then lunged towards him yet again. He struck his sw
STEEL AND FLESH PROVOKED TO DEATH
"What - what did you do to me?" The Bajan struggled to say. Lord Mordian grinned satisfactorily with confident eyes, staring at the Bajan who tried to take control of his body as he found it difficult to move his arms and legs. "Like I said before, I like you, not only because you are a good and loyal errand boy but because you are arrogant even though in the beginning you seemed calm - of course all Bajans are many a time blinded by their arrogance so -" He coughed once again. "I used your arrogance to my advantage." He continued."What - did - you - do - to - me - grrrrrh.""No no, the question you should ask is what are you doing to yourself." Lord Mordian took a deep breath while holding his stomach. "You see, I casted a hypnotizing spell on you the first time, channeling the spell through your arms which I took hold of, not because I was stupid, of course every sorcerer in all Azaria is aware that Bajan shape shifters can be repellent to hypnosis at will. I knew that channeling t
STEEL AND FLESH THE CYTIX PRIEST ARRIVES
"So what really happened?"A blindingly bright ribbon of lightning cut the pitch black sky outside the window, followed by a sharp drawn out crash of thunder which sounded very loud making the walls shook. The downpour was getting harder as the storm cloud passed over the fortress that King Lauihnio was brought in to get some medical attention from the healer his uncle Lord Mordian had made mention of.An elderly woman, though not too old due to the fact that she did not look like she was past sixty, with grey hair and slight wrinkles on her forehead was putting some herbs together which included some lavender plant, tumeric and capsaicin. She cut the tumeric and capsaicin into little bits before putting them into a small wooden mortar where she pounded the tumeric, capsaicin and lavender plant all together. She wore a plain red silk robe with wide sleeves and a white cloth strapped around her waist. she wore an ivory necklace with a carved little human skull hanging on it."You wil
