Chapter 24 – Arrogance

So it seemed they were keeping a demon general–an arachne to be exact–named Ariel with them for a while. Because of course. After some minor debate, the group decided that Leicester should be kept in one of their two rented rooms, with Syl and Sue keeping guard on her until she woke up. Of course,Continue reading “Chapter 24 – Arrogance”

Chapter 23 – Avoiding Politics

Julius was having a weird day. Granted, that wasn’t saying much given that every other day was weird for him. Really, weirdness was becoming normal to him. Anyways. As he stood in the Rosvord Fort, Julius stayed silent as he stared at Rostel and what he assumed were two other leaders of Hulthemia’s major factions.Continue reading “Chapter 23 – Avoiding Politics”

Interlude 4 – Meanwhile

Working with Doug was weird. Not bad, really, just weird. The old dude just had a really different way of doing things than the old man did. Adrien briefly considered that maybe he needed better ways of describing the older guys teaching him and his friends, before deciding “screw it”. It wasn’t like he’d getContinue reading “Interlude 4 – Meanwhile”

Chapter 22 – The Red Forge

Julius felt weird walking around without at least six other people following him. Eight nowadays, sure, but he was a little more used to the six. He frowned a little, adjusting his grip on the box containing his wrecked sword and armor as he stepped around a wood elf walking with her dogs on theContinue reading “Chapter 22 – The Red Forge”

Chapter 21 – Flower Petals

As he stared out at the massive crowd that surrounded the Finja, seemingly waiting for them to unboard the ship, Julius made a mental note to never tempt the universe again. The crowd itself wasn’t that much of a problem, since it wasn’t unheard of for the Heroes to receive a large welcoming party inContinue reading “Chapter 21 – Flower Petals”

Chapter 20 – The Rose Country

If there was one word Julius could use to describe Hulthemia, the capital city of Rosiava, it was sprawling. Nestled in the center of an old and large caldera, the streets of the city all spread out from a central point at the core of the caldera where an old fort remained, rebuilt over theContinue reading “Chapter 20 – The Rose Country”

Chapter 19 – Southward Bound

Julius took a slow breath to steady himself. The Finja was drifting over a small Tramontavan town at the moment, and he needed to take this opportunity before they crossed the border. If he waited, his task would just get harder and harder… He frowned. For some reason, that didn’t sound right. Well, whatever. HeContinue reading “Chapter 19 – Southward Bound”

Interlude 3 – Divine

The world of Estus was a connected one. There were small connections, little holes in the fabric of reality that the occasional poor unfortunates slipped through, and big connections, leading to realms of a very different nature than the physical world in between them. If one were to face the planet head-on, and had theContinue reading “Interlude 3 – Divine”

Chapter 18 – Recovery

“Um, a-are you sure you can stand okay?” Sophia asked, frowning worried as Julius buttoned up the shirt Douglas set out. It was the next morning and there was no way he was spending anymore time in that stupid, if comfy, bed. “Yeah, it’s fine. You did good work.” He grinned at her. “Thank you.”Continue reading “Chapter 18 – Recovery”

Chapter 17 – Aftermath

Julius blinked awake, a sudden warmth flowing over his body as the visions cleared from his mind. “-ir! Sir! Can you hear me?!” He blinked again, then looked up at Sophia. The young healer sighed in pure relief, her whole body going from tense to loose in a second before she frowned back down atContinue reading “Chapter 17 – Aftermath”
