THE FOOTPRINTS. Journey of no return. CHAPTER 100: ONE MAN, THE KHAL
As the sun began to set, casting a warm glow over the bustling camp, Zamorah gathered his warriors over a bonfire and admonished them."My friends," he said, his voice carrying a weight of authority and resolve, "the time has come to march on Khal Duraho's stronghold. We go to reclaim our children, our most precious treasures, and to deliver justice upon those who have wronged us."The warriors listened intently, their eyes burning with a fierce determination."We know the risks that lie ahead," Zamorah continued, "but we also know the strength of our convictions. We fight not for glory or conquest, but for the love of our families, our freedom, and our way of life."He paused, scanning the faces of his people, his own expression etched with a deep sense of purpose."I will not lie to you – the battle will be fierce, and the odds may seem daunting. But I have faith in each and every one of you. I have seen your courage, your skill, and your unwavering loyalty. Together, we will overco
THE FOOTPRINTS. Journey of no return. CHAPTER 101: The Kings of Crestwood
CHAPTER 92Khalodi didn't want Duraho to find him, he wanted to offer himself to him. Not clear what the difference would have been but he thought the latter would have lesser consequences. Did it? We're about to find out what Khalodi deems as lesser consequences when Duraho's sword was out of his sheath.“My king, I am told you sought my presence,” Khalodi said, trying not to show fear in his countenance.“General Khalodi, yes I did.” Khal Duraho said, forcing a smile and putting his sword back in it's sheath hung beside his waist It was clear it was not a genuine smile. His hands started shaking, he clasped his fingers against each other quickly and hoped he didn't see him physically trembling. He was still on the stairs while Duraho was already down, close to the dining area.Climbing up, he grinned “ come, let's go to my chambers, I have something important I want to discuss with you.” Khal Duraho said, putting his left hand around his shoulder.He knew immediately, it was going

Suddenly, a movement in the distance caught her eye, and she froze, her heart pounding in her ears. Squinting into the darkness, she could make out the silhouette of a figure, slowly approaching them. Caitlyn gripped her arm tighter, her own fear palpable."Who's there?" Cassandra called out, her voice trembling slightly. "Show yourself!"The figure stepped forward, and Cassandra's breath caught in her throat. It was a servant, his expression neutral, his hands clasped in front of him."What are you doing here, human women?" he said, his voice a bit shaky as well.The servant's words sent a chill down Cassandra's spine. She thought of hitting him quickly on his third leg and running as fast as she could, she dissuaded her mind from such. Maybe it wasn't such a noble idea after all. She couldn't help but wonder if this was a trap, a ploy to lure them deeper into the castle's ominous embrace.Caitlyn's grip on Cassandra's arm tightened, her eyes wide with apprehension. "Caitlyn, I don'

CHAPTER 94Khalodi woke up before Duraho and it was still dark, his hands and legs still tied and he presumed it was the right time to make a move. He moved with his shoulder, his bruised shoulder asn he winced in pain. But he had , he dragged the shoulder roughly on the ground till he got to the sharp glasswares. He picked the small ones his halfway fingers could hold onto and started cutting through. Like a baby with trying to masticate biscuit bone, he struggled for over fifteen minutes and sweating profusely like a christmas goat, he was finally free hand wise and went for his leg. It was quite easier to get his legs free although ample time was spent and it was already getting bright.The position of his tied legs made him have a sharp pain immediately he released them. He groaned sharply but without sound then straightened them. He cleared the ground quietly and went into a diamond push up position, he went at least twenty times. With his bones crackling and straightening to fu
THE FOOTPRINTS. Journey of no return. CHAPTER 104:SIGNIFICANT ROLES WE PLAY
~~~~~~~~~~~Wake up! Wake up!” The first guard whispered in desperation.What?! What happened? Is the king awake?” The third guard woke up asking in confusion and fear.“Talk man, you just woke us and you're scaring us with your quietness,” the second guard said.“I think I saw Khalodi outside,” he finally answered.“But you confirmed he was in the room?” The second guard asked.Yes I did, but maybe he passed when you all were fast asleep,” the first guard replied.“Why are you standing here asking useless questions, get in there and confirm it's not a false alarm.” The third guard said, angry and frustrated.The first guard was reluctant at first but saw it as the only reasonable way to confirm that Khalodi was in. He opened the door , it was a bit dark and he strained his eyes to see if Khal Duraho was awake. Coiled to the left, Khal Duraho was fast asleep so he stealthily passed him and behold Khalodi wasn't there. His breath became louder and his heartbeat became faster. The earl

Where were you? We knocked for quite some time without response so we decided to leave-“I thought you ran away again, I told you not to leave the room but you went out, what if you got into the wrong hands? This is not Southeros, you'll either die a gradual painful death or you'll serve the king till you die.” Khalodi cut Rafi's question short but spoke with a rising tone.Cassandra peeped in as Khalodi was ending his sentence. Caitlyn pointed to Cassandra as the progenitor of the idea and that she refused to go at first but needed to follow as her mind was made up already. She did this with her interpreting hands and body language and said no word to Khalodi.“Khalodi, nice to see you again,” Cassandra said. The place was quiet, everybody taking turns to stare at each other. Cassandra saw that the stare on her was longer and from Khalodi it was rather a glare than a stare. She knew if she didn't break the silence that it would last longer.“ What's happening here? Why is everyone s

“What have you come up with? I've got nothing for now but I'm not worried.” Khalodi said taking a sip from his cup.“Is this a joke? Is this a prank? You called us here and you've got nothing?” Gray snapped“I called you out here so that we could share ideas and come up with something solid, that doesn't seem as a joke.” Khalodi hit back.“This is all bullshit, the young boy who sees himself as the smartest has no cognitive ideas but brings drinks to celebrate our sharing of ideas, if this is not a hoax, then we're the stupid ones who came!” Gray said angrily, hitting the table, his tumbler turning over.“Let's stop the fighting, we're bigger than this,” Kaminski protested.“ Now if you're done, sit down let's discuss as old wise men that we claim to be.” Khalodi said shifting from the spilled wine .Gray fumed, Kaminski signalled him to take it easy. He was a young lady and had his own ways of doing his things. It might be disrespectful but he was the smartest in the room and no doub

There was joy whenever they could feel the blood of the twins closeby. Far down the pinnacle, they assembled together empowering themselves. Their return will connote massive destruction and to take back what belonged to them, power. The history of the witches goes way back and in every twenty families, there was one witch. Their dominance in the affairs of the outside world was prominent because they were fierce in battle. They defeated the werewolves and then the vampires. Their longest battle was with the hybrids- werewolf and vampires in one body. The fiercest of them all, Roosevelt, she never backed down. The oldest living witch whose power no man could contend. She occasionally dwelt in the body of witches, those who needed her help to demystify unresolved puzzles. Her ghost was everlasting, her body containers only died but she lived eternally.
