Transcendence. Torments of Nate Deon Chapter 3 PORT TOWN OF ERNDT, TO SAVE THE LITTLE ONE - PART 1
I open my eyes. The dull blue of the sky is staring back at me. In the corner of my sight the usual rubble of the old times. What happened? I remember entering into the ruin which was in the distance when suddenly I heard a ringing and everything went dark. Not been able to feel pain will turn out to be a disadvantage when being attack, especially one such as this. Wait… I don’t hear it. I sit up. I look to my side… swiveling to the other. Where is she? And the youngling beast. “Oh you’re awake…” A full turn to where the voice came from. I don’t know what race he is—obviously because I never cared to know—four arms, head that looks almost reptilian though slightly rounded, with two pairs of eyes donned in leather armor, his slightly thick arms bare. Two sheathed swords were crossed behind his back. I wonder what the other pair of arms would hold, if he has only two swords. “… Where is the kid?” “You must have arrived with a companion. Unfortunately, if they aren’t here you

So as predicted. The feeling faded a little while after making it into the town. The place is quiet like a ghost town, curfew for the game, he mentioned. The low building and one storey others were scattered about, tarps extending out on a few of them. A few stalls here and there. I got the general location of the place… So here we are. This place is unassuming as a whole. We took three hours or so to get to the town. The four armed guy is standing by my side, I did drag him about two-third the journey. “That was not nice… Any longer felt like I wouldn’t have had a rump to sit on again…” And he complained the way here. I believe this should be the time I feel annoyed but when you have no emotions nothing seems to matter. “Yea… So this is the place?” Why is he acting as if he didn’t know this place. He hadn’t even bothered to know where exactly I was leading us too. The countenance he had made it seem like he knew about where we will end up. “…?” The place, though looking a little

Back towards the doorway where I had left Dehl, I hear bootsteps coming closer. He steps out as I reach the now door-less room covered in blood, cuts over his person. Blood dripping on the floor from his lower left arm, held by the lower right. He was able to fight those magic users. “Already got the kid? It’s a real mess in there. Didn’t think that calm old man got it in him. Thought I was going to lose a couple of arms.” He looks down at her in my arms. “Nasty scare she got there.” A straightforward person. “Cute kid, though. She yours?” “…” “… You got what you came for so what now?” e brush of the awkwardness of my silence. “Find her a healer.” “Yeah, she doesn’t look too good?” I didn’t stop and continued on. Pass by the corpses or walking over them. “… There are people done there. You should find people to get them out.” “Sure. Thanks… Where are you going to stay. No inn’s going to let you in this late.” That’s true. But I already got that figured out. “… Up.” Yes. I de

A scam?Is she one of those people? Trying to lure me into her place. Most of them I've seen act no different.Ignore her. My feet didn't stop."Come meet your destined one. See your deepest desires. Glance into the future and relive your past."Her statement drew me in—not the first part but the rest. I stop. And look her way.Is it possible…? I never really thought of seers and fortune tellers as no more than scams. I never thought to see one, at least not until hearing about the lock on my memories.At least one of them might have true ability, right? If she could really look into it, see past the lock, If I could see what happened back then, who made me like this finding them might be a little easier.And the child? I don't believe there isn't anyone who be able to cure her in this place. At least someone may be here which doesn't want to attract any attention.This is me hoping the lie turns out positive.Seeing me look her way in contemplation she gestures me over and takes the l

When the figure moved to face me there was a distinct creaking with every movement. What stood before me was a disfigured old woman dressed in a one piece which seemed to be falling apart. Her hair was falling out and instead of hands she’s got… long blades. Her knees were more forward with a thick skin linking the joint making her knees like so, and another deformity leaving her with only two large toes for each leg. Yet, she was my height, maybe a bit taller. I look at the old woman before me. It was a slightly different sensation I felt from when meeting the shadow of Kein. She had no breath of life on her. No heartbeat. Smell. Odd. She doesn’t smell like a corpse either. But she does have a scent… Is she the Baba Jaga? “Who are… you?” Her croaky voice—I could see quite a few teeth missing—snapped at me, and with a creak a step forward pointing an arm at me. “I should be the one asking. You brought me here.” “Answer the question? Who are you and why are you here?” How troubles

I walked over to the bed. I took out my knife and cut through the ropes that bound the monster. Then turn to Iya… “You have held on for so long. i will take you to a cure now” The words just came out. Lifting her off the bed I walk to the door, the monster tailing. I grab the nob, “Tatala se ala i le isi itu, Baba Jaga.” I don’t know if I got the pronunciations right, but I think that should be it. I open and walk through. On the other side of the door was the room I was in not too long ago. And in the center of the dilapidated and dull lit place sat a small round table. It looked fancy with its covering and small ceramic kettle. The one seated behind it was Baba Jaga, a cup in her hand placing it to her lips and the coaster in the other. “Lay her.” Where? There is nothing here. Except the now present table. Something appeared in the corner of my eye. Look and see a bed… Without questioning I walk over and place her on the bed. Upright I stand to the side waiting for the woman

I didn’t plan on staying in Erndt any longer. The main reason I came here has been accomplished and as I didn’t feel the hands of a demon on this place there is no reason to stay. And if they did they would have hidden themselves pretty well, so why bother with the unseen. The idea was to head to the next location, a bigger one. There were bound to be demons in a bigger location. Even if it’s a lesser devil it will lead to one of a higher rank in that place. So I set sights to Avd’elisi. Learning from Lreen, from the previous settlement, the fastest way to get there is through here. And that’s the role of the vessels when he said that. I plan on heading to the dock and getting a ride on board. It would be fast and reduce the risk of having to run into monster every now and then. That’s why for whatever reason the old man wants to speak about, I don’t care for. “I’m not interested…” I walk heading for the stair. Currently it should be getting dark and since I have no idea when the bo

Didn’t think I’d ever see this scene. A demon caring for a human. Yes she really is a demon and looks no different from a human. But it’s not that she is masking herself. She is either restraining herself not wanting to make this her domain or she is just that weak. I haven’t seen a weak demon like her if that should be the case. When I heard her sobbing voice I followed and found this warehouse. Opened the door and saw the woman holding the injured human in her arms. Her scent came to me. She is a pure blood demon but her scent was faint. I guess that is why I didn’t think there was any demon around… I heard all she said. And it came as a surprise. A human giving his life for a demon. And she for him. Going by her first question she might not not know who I am, forgetting about the fear she may be feeling now stemming her cognitive—another question came out, though I do understand what it meant. I stop a few feet away. “Do you know me…?” Her smile fades. Though confused she star

… Above watching the ongoing battle. The mage with the mercantile smile stood in his deep brown Sith robe. The ground was little with corpses and dismembered corpses. Blood stained sands that had soaked and drained the life of those that fell. The two sides, one side the majority of therianthropes and the other humans, clash letting loose their savagery on each other. It was a gruesome sight where swords clash, severing and disemboweling of the clashing races alike. An observer would question the necessity of the savagery. In a would were there was on the expanse of desert, who knew whether there would be another settlement other than that of the two sides. So why did they not cooperative to increase their chances of survival in this cruel new world? The answer is basic: Superiority of species.

“Are you okay.” I look to where her voice came. Chika had somehow gotten herself out of the binding around her arm. When I glanced it seemed like it was cut. And in her hand was a very small knife, I’m sure she tucked it somewhere they wouldn’t find. She was checking on the two, cutting their bindings. I took a step to move closer. “Ugh…” I thought it would take a while to kick in. I finally got to relax seeing everything was fine, but immediately I did. I felt pain grip my entire body. My grip turned slippery from the blood that was slipping from the gunshot wound on my shoulder, and from the one that wasn’t mine. If that was all then I could deal with it, it would probably healed after a while. Aside from the nicks and cuts. I got careless back there. True, with this new found strength and reflexes you could do much, but when your are under fire it’s easy to be blindsided that was it. And that was what happ

“… I’m here to collect my friends. And I wouldn’t hesitate to cut anyone down anyone who stands in my way!” I say as I straightened my poster, walking. “Intruder at the entrance. Men down.” … “Don’t let him in. Do whatever it takes to put him down.” I could hear the distressed voices of the men in this place. They were scrambling to get here. And those that were already close by were let lose bullets. From long before I’ve known them to be rather conservative of their ammunition, after all, the amount would be so little. But it still rained. I weaved through the debris, walls, and any cover as they closed in with cover fire. Those that chose close combat with their machetes and knives were cut down by the scythe. I closed in one by one on their gunners taking them out and moving away before I got pinned. Why? Why? Why? Why do I feel like this? Despite the rage in me, hypocritical, it may be, why

“I’d appreciate it if you could get on with it.”“… Absolutely. Brest is his name.”Why do I get the feeling the sound of his name is exactly how he looks?“Who is he? What is his role in all this?”“The same for anyone in his position. A seat. Somewhere to belong, to hold authority.”“… I don’t get it. He’s already made his way into the top brass of that opposition faction, I assume, so why the need for more power.”Not just anyone could make it into the elites, in this case faction heads. He has to have something they need and is of the same mindset.“… Show me a person who has no greed and I will show you a world without without suffering…”Greed? In this situation do I seem to have that?… I guess. Despite having Amara, a unique to existence, I still wanted for Chika. Is that greed or lust. And then the fact, though not my own, I preferred her to be the one in control. Dose that also count.“… What do you think a desperate man would do, if you were in his situation?” He as

When the sun got over the horizon, I got out of Chika’s place. Using the Scythe as support I dragged my aching body towards the settlement. Damn it! My whole body hurts like hell. Despite it only being sunrise the settlement is bustling. The hunt must have already been gathered and people where already up to collect their ration for the day. Technically there should be enough to ration them for months if the meat is cured, but with the time it took to cure and the amount of people that came in occasionally the daily hunts were mostly shared daily until the ones in stores was cured. I’m somewhat a familiar figure around here. Draped in a cloak, much better from the very first tarp I used, though it was old. They knew of the relation I had with Chika and the fact I was one of those who hunted most people stayed cleared of me. Then there’s the rumor about the scythe. Something about the weapon being cursed and me being a dangerous and cruel character, That really hurt my feeling, you

I pulled her in closer.I didn’t have any top on so she could only wrap her arms around my neck leaving me to undo her buttons. Her lips never left mine as I worked to free her trapped bust. She was just right. I’m not one to like ‘em big or small, but in the middle, maybe a tad big than that average, just like how she was.I cupped a breast feeling it’s soft, sinking goodness in my hand. Breaking off I traced her neck, kissing all the way the cherry which sat perfectly on her mound taking it into my mouth, sucking on it.“Ah…” Her moans were soft, afraid to let it out. Her hand found my buckle as I undid her with a hand, slowly sinking into the mood.Gently lean her backward until her back touched the bed.On my knees I pulled off her pants and underwear, feasting on

[A/N: Believe the is longest i've written. Not edited so please bear with me.] In this few months I’ve active here. I got to see, well hear, about the fights that have been going on. With the exception of a few other races, their opponents were indeed the Theriantropes and a few other monster looking humanoids. Can’t really call them monsters if they can communicate, can we?. Here’s me, a guy who is avid about fantasy setting and the like and its inhabitants, seeing them do this breaks my heart. It goes as far to see the Demi-human, you know those animal/monster ears, tail and other parts, but looking no different, if not slightly, from humans being affect. Oh my dear Waifus. I was more active later in the night and hardly witnessed any. I mostly rested during the day, if not going to Chika’s or the old/young which listening to their reports, and gossips. From the reports they harassment was mainly guerrilla. Even still with that they were still at a stalemate, both side unable ov

They had secured a reservoir and other containers around the place, rationing it along with the daily hunts. It’s not much considering this sweltering heat which calls for constant rehydration, but there’s nothing you can do than survive with the little you got. —Well there’s the option of plundering from others, as long as you don’t get caught or deal with an witness. And that is something that seems to happen around here.How do they deal with the refiling? Well from what I know they made sure to collect the rare yet occasional rains which somehow still fall.

Motor control has slowed down to a dull, I can’t even keep my position leaning to the wooden hut,The same time as the door opened I had swayed to the side falling in towards the old lady. Luckily though, for some reason the scythe is still tight in my grip.“Woah, I didn’t think you’d want this old lady that bad that you’d throw yourself upon me.” She must have gotten a closer look at me, “You don’t look so good. Let’s get you in.” She supported me leading me inside.How is a frail old lady able to hold me upright. It’d be a blow to my pride as a man if it was my weight, but it isn’t.I’ve had my suspicions but this woman isn’t as she seems.She laid me on a cloth-made bed.“I should get your gift in before someone makes away with it.”I get how you feel about securing resources detrimental to survival but someone’s dying here.I get it now.
