LXXI. The Chief and the Rakasha

The wind that entered from his open window made him feel like the room was made of ice. The Rigiddin chief donned his black wolfskin cloak. Raius never really liked wearing it as he had no reason to hide his scars and tattoos which he got from his countless wars. Wearing the cloak also means being cautious but with the Discerner’s presence, he never felt the need to cover. But tonight was different. Jin was out there, infiltrating the enemy camp and so just for a while, the chief had to take care of himself. As he put the cloak over his shoulders, it was heavy but the warmth will suffice the cold of the night. He knew that the weight would slow down his movements but at the very least, he would keep his blood running hot. Winter was almost upon the Rokohorta lands and the unprepared soldiers of the enemy would likely freeze to death before they could even go into battle. Imagine training with the sword only to be killed by the cold. That was a harsh death for any warrior that no one w

LXXII. The Favor of the Shore

The Lady Rakasha couldn’t sleep. It was not that she wasn’t used to letting the chief do his patrol. Chief Raius had been doing it for how many nights already. It’s just that her anxiety was rising as the days went by. Her brother wasn’t weakling, that was for sure. If he wasn’t her family, she would regard him as a reincarnation of Rufus, the first ever Rigiddin chief and warrior of the Shore. Raius was already a leader by heart ever since they were little. When her mother was pregnant with Raeya, her mother contracted an illness and the cure was found on a foreign land. He was only six but he traveled for weeks and was able to bring home the medicine. He was only six that time. A year after, some bandits broke through the defenses of the village and the adult men were away hunting. Her brother engaged the bandits and almost lost his life because of the wounds that he got. After three days of being in a coma, they were all surprised to see him rise like he just slept.

LXXVI. Biyako

The legend of the purple cloud was what interested Lidon the most.For two days, they were in the facility of the new guerilla army. Everywhere that Maryan went, Lidon was there, silent as a stalker, only making his presence visible when Maryan’s safety was being compromised. Last night, they were walking through the outer parts of the facility, trudging the long staircases around the big factory. Lidon sensed something wrong in the air. It was common for the smell in the factories to be odd but he was an expert in distinguishing poisonous from non-poisonous. It was his job as Jin the Discerner and as the right hand of the Rigiddin chief. He knew what people looked like when they were putting up a front through their body language. He had to protect Chief Raius from people who had hidden agenda behind their exquisite gifts. Their palace was always being flooded by outsiders who wanted to establish good relationships with the Rigiddin clan for who doesn’t want to be friends with a dis

LXXVII. The Shore

“Here’s to Kaihra Bashti, a full-fledged member of Absinthe, champion of Veynstown, and hero of Khenealm.” As soon as Zed said his last word, everyone lifted their cups and drank the red wine in unison. Compared to the other funerals that Macy had been to, their numbers were too little, though it was expected as Absinthe was her only family. It was a surprise to see Aegis and even sir Vance of the Triad. Still, the pain was the same, no matter how many times she had witnessed burials. She expected herself to at least be a little strong and poised because she had been in the situation of grieving too many times already. But the ceremony hadn’t even started when her tears flooded her face for how many hours straight until nothing came out anymore. She just stood there, not really paying attention. Her eyes were just on the white coffin in front beside a hole in the ground. “Macy, it’s your turn to speak.” Behind her, Raeya patted her back softly. “It’s okay if you can’t. You can j

LXXVIII. The Legend of the Purple Cloud

The legend didn't start with the appearance of a goddess or a deity or the birth of a human with supreme powers. The beginning wasn't some fairytale initiated by the phrase 'once upon a time'.The story starts with a thief in his late thirties who was serving his last remaining years in jail during the time when monarchs ruled the land of Khenealm five hundred years ago.''You have no family, huh?'' one of his fellow prisoners asked in the dark.The prison was actually a former dungeon of lions, a sign that the ruling family weren't as saintly as they claimed to be. Although Biyako wasn't thinking that they were entitled to some mercy because of their sins, they at least deserved some humanity. The dungeon stank of feces and rats were running to and fro across the cold stone ground. The space was so small but there were at least a dozen of them. He was shoved in here with murderers, arsonists, pyschopaths, and other criminals who were far worse than him.''I had a family,'' Biyako answ

LXXIX. The Second Legend

The second secret of Biyako was intense. It was more all about his daughter on his second wife.Raii Shin Nohani suddenly had the urge to take down her teacher.When she was about to enter her room, a familiar set of glasses awaited her in the hallway.“Good to see that you’re not late,” her friend greeted with a smile as she fixed her glasses.“Yeah. Morning, Dawn,” was Raii Shin’s reply. Both of them entered and half of their classmates waved at them, specifically to Dawn’s direction. One of the girls suddenly came from behind and hugged her there asking Dawn how the party last week was. She wasn’t able to reply because a group of girls and boys flocked and greeted her. It was obvious that Dawn looked uncomfortable and looked at Raii Shin for help but Raii Shin was already taking her seat. Raii Shin was invisible and she didn’t have any problems with it. It was the usual Monday for a college student. No breakfast, a tied but uncombed hair, face drenched in sweat with all the runnin

LXXX. Swaying Feelings

Despite all the confusion on what happened last night, Regina was sure of one thing. She wasn’t the one who sent the distress call.“What do you mean by a distress call?” Again and again, Regina told the officers. “You think I’m an expert in advanced moon arts?”The officer who was taking down notes in his tablet fidgeted his chin, remembering that Regina was just a part-time amateur. Communication using moonlight required maximum concentration and an endless source of power reserve and stamina. It was not hard to learn it, she heard. It was the resources that it consumes that makes it not that really recommended, unless it was for an emergency.“But if it wasn’t you,” he looked at Sir Tanori who was beside the clinic door, observing the interrogation keenly. “Then who was it?”Regina had a faint clue. There was only one person who always knew if she was in danger and that person was not present last night, much less around Jazel. So how? Or was she overthinking and hopelessly dreami
