"Kerik you're not expecting anyone, are you?" Tara finally asked, making use of her words and immediately walking straight to the door."I know I'm a lot of things, but I don't keep insane humans as friends." Following Tara to the door I thought about who must have been desperately trying to break down our door.Tara slowly reached for the door and opened it gently. Standing grumpily in front of us was a burly figured bald man. Glancing at him, I quickly observed an ornamented sewing of a black serpent on his chainmail amour. A knight you might say, but no ordinary one. He was a member of the keepers. The bald Knights. Even the women always were too. It was believed that they had to get all form of impurities so one can be pure and cleared from their sins. Like that made any of them less corrupt."Took you long enough!"he scolded, his cold eyes fixed on us.lunatic, Tara grabbe

Three more feet left, and it would all be over. His eyes were already dead and every shade the sky possessed from dawn until dusk, in his dead eyes, they were black. Hispupils exploded to fill so much of the eyes. I remembered when they probably used to blink, to sit up and laugh and live life normally like humans were supposed to. But that time, he wouldn't. His eyes were just so still. After what seemed to be for eternity, he finally wobbled to my front. Then just as fast as the blink of an eyes, he lunged what seemed to had been an attack on me. At first, it wasn't too much of a chaos since he would be making a direct contact with him and we would all be happy at the end. But things began to grow out of hands. His firm grasp were the first strangle I felt on my neck, till his other hand scrolled through my body, trying to place my body calm as if one was about to be used for a sacrifice. Then I saw why as soon as the slimy snakes on his head stood up. Don't get me wrong h

Chapter one hundred and thirty three.

"So, you killed the god?""Shall we get over to the next place? The whole point of the mission gave me a headache. A painful headache that you have no idea how to get rid of, you can't cut your head off just because you wanted to cure your headache! Although I wished I could just fill that, only if I wouldn't die.You know that feeling, when wish you could just stop something but you dare not stop. You see, there's a certain level of tiredness that equates to insanity; for me it was when I'd like to temporarily dislocate my spirit from my body, as if I could ask the universe to take me out for just a short while, let mysoul go wherever souls go to be. I'm a fairlybrave person, I am, but sometimes I just didn't wanted to feel the process of recovery all over again. I knew I had to wake up feeling okay in the morning. I would, but it was simply a level of worn-out-ness that hurts. But I knew I wasn't tired physically. It was the mind a

"Before we get on with anything, we need to first off know what our problems are." Mr. Big baby, Peter Toski offered in the throne roomas we gathered together. We had no choice than to create a better Talot for the sake of the people. For that, we all needed to work hand in hand as one. And of course, we had to literally be one for us to achieve anything good, even if we wouldn't get along on a normal day. Plus in reality, I wasn't really left with much of a choice in the first place, especially since Mona and Lily were out of town."We don't have any problem really, Peter. Just get the bloody cure for the septic and save Talot." Tobin quickly interrupted almost before Peter could finish with his statement. "So maybe we should think well before we speak.""Hmph! I just thought-""You thought nothing you big baby." He cuts in, without even letting Peter finish his whining in peace."Quiet you two." I felt a

"True. The earlier the better." Tobin agreed.I sighed, wanting to agree with them but weighed down by the thought of so many other things. "We also have to settle with the other Lords." Even if nobody else would agree with me, I knew that strangely scary looking glare on Tobin's face would one hundred percent understand and agree with me. That was enough already. With him, I could gain enough power and even share with him. Just the thought was enough to drain my heart in the gutter. Remembering the one person I had made my right hand man, the commander of my soldiers. I wondered if it was okay to have someone else in his place only because he was gone. But most importantly, I wished he was just gone for a while, succeeding with his mission. Alive. I remembered him and a smile worked up on my face, only reminding him just how much I missed him.

"The lords would have to bow to us as soon as we provide the cure." Tobin's voice boomed loud the room, bringing me back to reality from day dreaming about Bellamy. I never thought that even I could be allowed to day dream about a person. It wasn't like my heart wasn't opened to love, especially even after Richard had chosen to betray our trust and run to the dark Lord. Even with that, I still had the guts to dare to love and feel affection. With all the dark past and fate of mine, it was still funny to think that love could still work it's way to find me. Then just as I was about to reply Tobin, reminding him that the lords weren't the type to just easily overlook, the Grinch raised up her book with just three large words written boldly and edible: 'LORDS FINDING CURE.' I didn't even notice that she was probably diverting her full attention to our discussion. "Really?" I asked her in shock. They were so many things to say, but finding the cure seemed a bit over obsesse

"What is it Amelia!?" Peter screamed out loud like a little baby who's just been born, crying like he has just been attacked. "Ahh, what happened to you?" By the time he could even finish his statement, he was already at the entrance of the palace door. Shirtless. With big flabby stomach dancing in front of him.Don't ask me what, why or even how. It wasn't really a pretty scene to see if you asked me."Peter, relax." Amelia scoffed as she danced over to our side, with a big smile across her face. "I found it, and I can't even believe my eyes. I can't believe it." Her eyes squinted as soon as they got bright and her smile dulled and faded from sparkling remarkably happy to an emotionless one. At that time, Peter was already slowly advancing to meet us, both of his arms swung up high, as he tried wearing his tunic, adjusting his cloth pretty well."Amelia," I called to calm her down as she was far from calm at the mom

Happiness is in everything; I dare you to invite it in.It is in the rain, cool and fresh, just as deeply as thesunshine, for they bring forth different emotions.Happiness is enjoying the moment, being presentfor that gift that is living, and allowing it to becomeintense.For me, there is something about chopping a homegrown vegetable that soothes me to my soul; Ilisten to the sound as the knife cuts and then themetal meets the wood. I let my hands move slowlyin the silence of the room, allowing randombirdsong and windy gusts to infuse my mind. Theearthy flavours develop an intensity, there is a burstof aroma with each cut and in the quietness within,I am happy.Other times I burst with life in the joy of movement.I love to dance to vibrant music, loud and strong. Ifeel my limbs move with the beat, my mindenjoying the heady ride. There is something aboutcycling in the countryside, with or without music, ina
