The Last Blood Mage Keeping Bloodlust In Check
As Xander and Atheria set out toward the Cold Mountains, their journey began through the sprawling grasslands that bordered Mooncrest. The early morning light cast a golden hue over the landscape, a serene backdrop to the challenges that lay ahead."Five days to the summit, they said," Atheria mused aloud, guiding her horse alongside Xander's. "I hope these monks are worth the trip."Xander chuckled, the sound mingling with the gentle clop of their horses' hooves on the soft earth. "After everything we've been through, a five-day ride sounds like a damn vacation. Just you, me, and the great outdoors."The grasslands gradually gave way to denser forest, the canopy above filtering the sunlight into a kaleidoscope of greens and golds. The path, though well-trodden, wound its way through the woods with a deceptive calm, the silence punctuated only by the occasional call of a bird or the rustle of small wildlife."Keep your eyes peeled," Xander warned, his gaze scanning the dense underbrus
The Last Blood Mage Rivernix, The Creature Born Of Magic Corruption
As the first light of dawn broke over the horizon, Xander and Atheria resumed their journey towards the Cold Mountains. The terrain grew more treacherous, the path winding through dense forests and rocky inclines. By midday, the imposing silhouette of the mountains loomed ever closer, a constant reminder of their destination and the uncertain promise it held.Xander, already feeling the strain of the journey, glanced over at Atheria, his skepticism bubbling to the surface once more. "You really think this is worth it?" he grumbled, maneuvering his horse around a particularly steep bend. "These mountains better have some damn good wisdom to share, considering the hell we're going through to get there."Atheria, maintaining her steady pace beside him, shot him a reassuring smile. "Patience, Xander. We're not just seeking wisdom; we're seeking balance. Something to help you... us, navigate the challenges ahead. And besides, the journey itself has its own lessons."By late afternoon, they
The Last Blood Mage Killing The Rivernix
As they prepared to break camp the next morning, Atheria turned to Xander with a serious expression on her face. "We can't leave yet. Not until we've dealt with that Rivernix."Xander, who was rolling up their makeshift bedding, stopped and looked up at her, confusion and reluctance mixing in his expression. "Wait, what? Why the hell not? That thing nearly took a chunk out of us last night."Atheria paced a little, her gaze fixed on the river where they had encountered the creature. "Think about it, Xander. If we leave it alive, it's only a matter of time before someone else runs into it. And not everyone will be as lucky as we were. Plus, the damn thing's existence here is poisoning the water, killing the ecosystem. We have a chance to stop that."Xander threw his hands up in frustration. "And how do you propose we do that? Last time I checked, that thing could dodge arrows and swords like it was nothing. And it's not like we can just ask it nicely to fuck off and die.""That's where
The Last Blood Mage Another Corrupted Being
Their journey towards the Cold Mountains became even more urgent as they navigated through the dense forest, the weight of Xander's condition hanging heavily between them. The silence of the forest was suddenly broken by the sound of soft sobbing. Up ahead, in the middle of the road, sat a figure cloaked in rags, her body shaking with each sob."Wait, do you hear that?" Atheria asked, slowing her horse to a halt."Yeah, I hear it. And I don't like it," Xander replied, his voice laced with caution. "Let's just keep moving. We've got enough problems as it is."But Atheria, ever the compassionate soul, dismounted her horse. "I can't just leave her. She might need help.""Atheria, don't!" Xander hissed, but it was too late. Atheria was already approaching the figure.As she drew closer, the sobbing intensified. "Ma'am? Are you okay? Can we help you?" Atheria called out gently, trying to peer under the hood that covered the woman's face.The figure slowly raised her head, and the sobbing c
The Last Blood Mage Ice Shelter And Future Plans
By the fourth day of their relentless trek toward the Cold Mountains, the landscape had shifted dramatically. The once dense forests had given way to open, windswept plains, and the mountains themselves loomed ever closer, their peaks shrouded in ice and snow. The weather had turned bitterly cold, a sharp contrast to the relatively mild conditions they had left behind.Xander, wrapped in as many layers as he could manage without impeding his movement, was visibly miserable. Every breath came out in a frosty cloud, and he kept rubbing his hands together in a futile attempt to generate warmth. "I hate this," he grumbled, his voice muffled by the scarf wrapped around his face. "Why couldn't these damn monks live somewhere tropical? Somewhere with sun, sand, and maybe a nice beach."Atheria, leading the way with a map in hand, couldn't suppress her amusement at Xander's discomfort. "Oh, come on, Xander. A little cold never hurt anyone. Besides, think of it as... character building," she t
The Last Blood Mage Erik, The Joyous Monk
As morning light began to filter through the layers of snow above them, Atheria and Xander started the laborious process of digging their way out of the underground shelter they had constructed the previous night. The cold bit at their fingers, but the thought of resuming their journey to the Cold Mountains spurred them on.Finally breaking through to the surface, they were greeted by a landscape transformed. The blizzard had passed, leaving behind a pristine blanket of snow that stretched as far as the eye could see, the early morning sun casting a glittering sheen over it."Look at this," Xander exclaimed, his breath forming clouds in the cold air. "It's like the world started fresh overnight. Damn blizzard might've frozen my balls off, but you've got to admit, it's beautiful."Atheria couldn't help but smile, despite the chill. "It's breathtaking. But let's not linger too long admiring the view. We've got monks to find and a long road ahead."They found their horses huddled togethe
The Last Blood Mage The Monstery
As the trio continued their ascent towards the monastery, nestled high in the Cold Mountains, Erik began to share more about his mission, revealing the depth of his purpose with a gravity that hadn't been present in his demeanor before."You know, I wasn't entirely truthful when I said I was just out for a stroll," Erik confessed, casting a glance towards the towering peaks above. "The monastery sent me on a specific task—to investigate the magic corruption spreading through the land."Atheria and Xander listened intently, the humor from their earlier conversation giving way to a more solemn attention."Corruption?" Xander echoed, his voice laced with concern. "So, it's worse than we thought?"Erik nodded gravely. "Much worse. It's not just isolated incidents. It's a blight, spreading faster than we anticipated. The elders at the monastery have been having... visions, prophecies of sorts.""Prophecies?" Atheria asked, her curiosity piqued. "What kind of prophecies?"Erik paused, choos
The Last Blood Mage Undead At The Monastery
Following the group of red-robed monks, Atheria, Xander, and Erik entered a large wooden building that exuded a sense of ancient wisdom and tranquility. The interior was dimly lit, with rays of sunlight filtering through small windows, casting serene patterns on the polished wooden floor. At the center of the room, in a meditating position, sat an old man whose presence seemed to fill the space with a profound sense of peace. This was Grand Master Laylan.Grand Master Laylan was a figure of venerable age, his face lined with the wisdom of countless seasons. His eyes, though closed in meditation, seemed to radiate an inner light. His long, white beard flowed down like a river of time, and he was clad in simple, yet elegant robes that marked him as someone of significance within the monastery.Erik and the other monks bowed deeply in greeting, a gesture of respect and reverence. "Grand Master Laylan, we bring before you Erik's guests, the ones you foresaw," one of the monks announced in
