The werewolf moved his hairy head from the comfort of his vast and dry den. He reluctantly exits; his wife was more than keen to get him out, what else could he do? The rolling pin, which she held in her hand, was large as a normal man's hand.  He didn't want to taste her wrath, again, so, he left. The last time was much different, the rolling pin flashed for a second, he fell like a sack. A group of dancing angles looked at him and laughed. She was a force to be feared. Silently he left the den, walked until she couldn't see him and started a cheerful song:   

"Over seven streams,

Over seven streams,

Over seven hills,

Over seven hills,

I'll go,

I'll go,

A monster to slay,

A monster to slay,

His yellow eyes I'll see,

I'll see,

    IThey parted before the first rays of dawn; it was a cold and chilly morning that brought a new hope to this grim and colorless world. Albinstood on the top of Hill, as it was called, but it was more a burial mound than a hill, but none the less it was tall as a hill. The people had long forgotten who was buried here, so it was named Hill, maybe, because of the noble Hill family that ruled these lands since the age of the Burrow Kings. It was a custom for these placed to be called after the noble families that ruled the region, better than the names that are forgotten in merciless winds of time. And, so, thanks to that the custom survived to this day. Maybe, for an outsider it would be strange, but not for the local inhabitants of this wild and unexplored place.The top of mound was covered in moss, so old that it changed color. The large, massive stones are still visible under the vegetation. He moved closer. The arched stone-way still stood in

    PREPARATION I The ageless river-king appeared from the deeps of the murky river that snaked its way through the sheer mountain side. His bright green skin illuminated everything with a palette of green tones. He stood tall, proud and fierce as the tallest mountain, which dominated the countryside. His dark green eyes were cold as ice; his damped bear covered most of his large scaly body, unwashed rows of matted hair fell almost to his waist. Although he was strong, his footsteps were light and almost silent, too silent. He moved with a dose of gracefulness that couldn't be seen in the other river-kings. Fires and thunders, appearing from staff, shook the countryside. Fierce he was in his anger. Something deep inside of him, told him that things were about to change drastically for better or worse he didn't know. There was no way of knowing. II In Spikehorn,

    IInosuke walked among the burial mounds. His pale, sweaty face shinned under the bluish light of the moon above. His nervous eyes watched in every direction. The night was silent, he hurried onward. Mist, so dense, that a knife was needed, creeped around the moldy, rotten burial mounds. Inosuke stopped, his heart was pounding. Strange things happened here, they say, on these mounds. A bloody battle happened here, some time ago, the accounts don't lie. How much blood was spilled on barren field, nobody knows.The souls of the dead warriors could find rest or peace, so they still wander this abandoned place. Inosuke didn't like these types of places. Who could blame him? Everybody avoided this place, if they had the chance. His luck was different, he had to pass this place and fast. He gathered his breath, turned to his and looked at the mist that was hovering above the mounds. His face became paler and paler. A half-rotten hand appeared from one of the

    The emperor had to find a compromise soon. Vilhorn was a war state. They rode for days, without rest, from the capital of Vilhorn. The trip would be much longer if the roads stayed the same as they were in the first days of the new empire. Hundreds, no, thousands came to make the road a bit easier to travel. They were close. Going farther into the country, they have seen fewer and fewer villagers. The villages were abandoned. The wells were poisoned. The forests were burned. There was a shortage of food and drinking water. In the center, even a bigger terror awaited them. Most of the houses were in ruins. The fire was spreading everywhere. The villagers were dying, some from hunger, while some from exhaustion. General Souma couldn't believe that something like this could happen. They could feel the anarchy in the air. It was foul. How could warriors of their renown do this? There was no answer. It couldn't be imagined. Someone else was involved. But who was pulling the strings? They

With eagerness in his walk, the warrior was closing on the tower. He stopped at the base. The tower was something that he didn't see anywhere. There must be a way up. He stopped to look. There was a way. The top of the tower has a forked piece. The warrior searched in his backpack, a rope he must find. He knew that it was somewhere in the backpack. But, where was it? He started losing hope. At last, under his coat, he found the rope. He swung the rope upwards.IIThe city was asleep. The tower was strange. Most people thought that that type of a tower could never exist, let alone stand on its own. But, the tower stood high above the city. The new bailiff, Albin, looked at the tower.

    IGrasmere, a few days later…In the backyard behind his house, the merchant Masaru was spending time with his family. It was quiet outside. He, this majestic city, was never this much quiet. This must be the first time, that they heard this much silence, since they settled here. Always, from somewhere the noise of the men leaving or entering the inn could be heard or the voices of the samurai that were patrolling the streets. This night was special. It was too warm for their taste."Finally, I can't believe it! Peace and quiet! A man could get used to this,"said the merchant after a short break. He was watching the rooftops. There was no snow, which was odd; the snow always fell in this time of year."I can't get used to it,"his son said, lifting his head from the scroll."Me too,"said the daughter. In her hand, she was holding a calligraphy brush."At least, the humidity isn't high,"the

There are always those who will listen to his tales. He waited. Nearby, the children were playing with their own hand-made wooden swords. The man still waited, nobody returned. It was time to go.

All of them look like the right decision, but on careful analyzes, every decision was wrong. He was at a standstill. Hours passed, he was still at the beginning. To him, they looked like minutes. Minutes, he spent in reviewing. There was always something that he missed.His grandfather was a great strategist and his father before him.

Their armors were the same; hard to spot the difference between them, the heraldry, which hung on their right shoulder, was the same; a yellow turtle on a green field, the sigil of House Transin. The bull horn-helmed knight stopped for a moment, looked at the worn-down signpost. His dark green eyes looked at the names on the board. He mounted his steed, turned to the other direction and galloped, the others followed in toe. "Kerd is that way,"said the first knight. "True,"replied the bull horn-helmed knight. "Why are we going in the opposite direction?" "Would you go to Kerd?" "No." "Neither would I." "That's the point." "You think that Albin

The guard turned to left, continued down the palisade. Herbog looked up at the sigil of House Aswar, a proud lion danced on the light breeze. He wondered was it a good omen or a bad one, he wasn't very religious, most problems he resolved with the sword, if you could call that large piece of steel a sword. The soldier waited for him to get up, Herbog turned towards the show-covered field; it will be a harsh winter, it always was and will be, ever since the new king came."I don't like it,"the guard said while covering his face with mask that hung lowered to his chest."Neither do I,"Herbog replied.The man turned, "always the same blasted weather.""It could be worse.""True, but still it's blasted.""I know."
