The Elderien Chronicles Ravens
"Ahh!"Alastair groaned as a Raven picked his flesh. He had not realized that he had a large wound on his leg. The Raven flew away as he kicked it off, groaning as he did. The sun was beginning to rise and its very first rays hit Alastair on the face. Alastair stood up from the ground and tried to clean the dirt off his body. He stopped when he heard someone coughing by his left.He looked at the person and saw Fristborn. He had a large wound on his head also and he groaned as he stood up as well. "I feel like I have been dancing with a hurricane," Fristborn said and Alastair shot him a look. Wasn't that the same thing he had thought when he woke up in that strange realm? Fristborn walked up to him and gazed at the bruises and cuts on his face. Alastair knew he looked like a punching bag, but he just needed to save Cara and he could worry about his looks later."We are in Merandore, are we not?" Alastair asked Fristborn who nodded."Seems like the tides knew exactly where to take u
The Elderien Chronicles The bite
He gasped, taking in the rush of air into his lungs. His eyes opened, and the crippling force the sea had exerted on him do forcing him to close his eyes again. He struggled to seat up, but his effort was not forthcoming. It was hopeless, he could barely feel his legs.The Forest around him glared with anger, like a subtle warning telling him he was not welcomed there. Blaize wondered why he was even inside a weird-looking forest in the first place. If anyone should be there, it should be Alastair. The bastard had the guts to ask him why he hated him so much? Blaize scoffed at the thought.He stood up, it was already daybreak but the thick leaves of the forest had prevented any form of light from penetrating. It was quite dark, except for some areas that were lightened up with rays of sunshine. Blaize felt uneasy, but he was not one to let fear rule his life. He was better than that."Bloody hell!"He exclaimed as he stepped on something. It appeared to be dung. Wasn't that expected?
The Elderien Chronicles The man
The natives charged as they took up defensive positions, all chattering amongst themselves. Blaize watched in anticipation as they began to swing their magic up and down, perhaps in an attempt to scare away their foes.Blaize was more interested in knowing what kind of creature could make the natives that scared. Perhaps he even wanted the does to help him. He just needed to wait for the perfect chance to strike.There was silence, much like the time when he was waiting for the little child to come outside. Only in this case, he was not bound in vines. When he thought that perhaps the creature wouldn't come out for the natives had managed to scare it away, something large burst out from the woods and ran toward the natives.The natives charged and ran towards the creature but it easily grabbed the first native to come its way and smacked its head on the nearest tree. More of the creatures followed and a fight soon burst out. Blaize tried to get free from the shackles holding him but h
The Elderien Chronicles Brother
He walked towards the Egda sea and prepared himself to meet the so-called legend. Blaize had been able to squeeze out the location of the sea from Rufus and although the latter warned him not to go, he did not listen.How could he? When he had a lot hanging on him finding Alastair and killing him? His life would be over if he did not go, he would have to spend the rest of his days on a remote, isolated island with flesh-eating monsters and strange large creatures.Trolls. That's what they were called. He had only remembered their name after Rufus had taken him to safety. They were taught about trolls back at the keep but since the creatures were not peculiar to Elderien's grounds, the mages paid little or no attention to the teaching.But he would ask himself, what would Alastair do? That was why he decided to pay attention to every little detail he was taught. The mages did not particularly mention anything about Killing trolls, but Blaize knew that for him to land a deathblow on one
The Elderien Chronicles The world he knew
It was all a lie. Blaize chuckled as reality dawned on him. His entire life had been a lie. The life he knew in Elderien was perhaps not the life he had thought it was. Why did Orion lie to him and tell him that he was the son of a whore? Why could he not remember his former life before then? Why were there so many questions in his head?"I don't even know where to begin. I haven't been Rus excited since my wife gave me twin boys. I have so many questions..."Rufus began."You will have to save it till you have answered all of mine. Why did I not remember? What happened to me in the sea?"Blaize asked, genuinely curious to know."There are sayings about the sea making you forget things. It trades your memories for something else. I never believed in it, not until now." Rufus said to him."What did she trade my memories for, then?" Blaize wondered."Your life? Recall I told you the sea is quite impatient and unforgiving. What if she made an exception with you? What if she traded your m
The Elderien Chronicles Eggshells
Blaize followed the shadow as it glided through the stairs. He could see it walking faster as he followed and that made him guess it probably knew he was following it. But what if it was not worth his time? Should he just go back?The shadow kept on walking as Blaize followed and eventually, he could no longer see it. The shadow had stopped and that made him Wonder if he should stop as well. But whenever something like that happened, that meant the person Wanted to be found right? Would that turn out to be a bad thing or a good one?Another step and Blaize was slowly approaching a little chamber built with stone. The chamber had a fire at the center which kept on burning as he approached. There were no seats or tables in the Chambers and there was certainly no bed. The only thing Blaize could see was a large window and the woman who stood before it.She was tall and red-haired, and the outline of her back which was turned to him told him she was very attractive. He could not stand bac
The Elderien Chronicles The curse of lust
"What do you mean she's a property of the gods?"Blaize asked as Rufus walked away. He followed the older man through the streets, one of the vendors almost slapping his left eye with a piece of fish it waved around. Blaize narrowly escaped the impact and almost cursed at the man."Years ago, this Kingdom experienced something dark. Everyone fell into a frenzy of lust. You might think it is fun but it is not. It was hell. People died, and properties were lost. I almost lost my wife in the entire madness..."He stopped and sighed."... then the priests came up with a solution. They revealed we were cursed by a foreign god. One that my Kingdom was not familiar with. We did not know why the god had cursed us, however, the priests did a ritual call on the god.Even at that time, about ten people were raped at the scene. After hours of trying, the god replied. We learned it was actually a goddess and she provided a way for us to end the madness. The princess must be sacrificed to her on th
The Elderien Chronicles No one saw us
Blaize walked back to the house, the events of what just happened dancing in his mind. He did not regret what he did, but at the same time, he was not proud of it either. He knew the consequences of his actions, and he knew Rufus might never forgive him.He had ruined the lives of so many people with a single act of lust. He knew he tried his best to resist but maybe he did not try hard enough. Maybe he should have run away and maybe he should not have followed the shadow in the first place.A grave mistake. How would he rectify it?Rufus looked at him with weariness as he approached. It was obvious he and his wife were worried about him. When Blaize walked towards them, he managed to smile, but Rufus did not."You left," Rufus said to him and Blaize sighed."Just went for a walk to clear my head," Blaize replied and Rufus nodded.Did he believe that?They set off immediately and along the way, Rufus always shot Blaize a look of suspicion. He didn't believe what Blaize had told him fo
