Her Tormentor

Nathaniel's group met the pursuers of the King about half an hour later. The leader was a Falumor in pricy clothes. Hardly any of them wore armor, but it would have only slowed them down, as their weapons were made for fast and nimble attacks.Metal clashed against each other as the two parties engaged in battle. The numbers were on Nathaniel's side, but that soon changed as the tired soldiers fell one after another.At first it was only one, getting pierced through by the opponent's spear. Then another tried to avoid an attack, but slid from his horse and got trampled over. The third miscalculated the heaviness of his injuries and bled to death. The fourth, fifth, and sixth were just unlucky. The seventh managed to kill two opponents at once before he noticed the sword stuck in his lungs. Finally, the eighth gave his life for a healthier comrade to fight on.Nathaniel's face was grim, his sword like lightning striking down again and again. The injuries limited

The Prince's Death

An emotion flittered across Nathaniel's face, but it was too fast to catch on. His hand pressed against the wounded leg, and holding the sword in the other, he forced himself to stand up. Though this position was hard on his body, he never planned to die while kneeling."Oh, are you angry?", his opponent asked, enjoying to torture the fallen foe. "Scared, maybe? Such a pitiful life you must have led, and you didn't even know why."Following Nathaniel's movements with his dark eyes, the grin slowly vanished from his face and hiding behind it, a piercing stare got visible. Compared to the smile, this gaze felt much more matching for his appearance. People were inevitable formed by what they did their whole life, and Kadir, who was a master of weapons, had eyes as sharp and slicing as a sword. Only after he took the mask of cheerfulness off, did one notice how badly it matched him."You know, I would love to punish you for all that my sister had to go through", Kadir said, and carefully

Where Is He?

After a tough fight, Nathaniel was victorious over the darkness. The snippets of dark power coursing through his body had collected in his left arm. For as short a s a few seconds, he gave in to the dizziness, and closed his eyes."Nathan, don't fall asleep!"His eyes snapped open to focus at Aston, who'd reached his side. He was covered in mud from head to feet, leaving only his two eyes, that were dark with worry."Don't look like this, I don't plan to die", Nathaniel grumbled. It irritated him when his brother looked like an abandoned puppy. Where was the pride he always pretended to have? Whenever it was just the two of them, Nathaniel felt like he was talking to a little kid.With a groan, Nathaniel sat up from the lying position and noticed that he didn't know when he had fallen. Wasn't he standing when the Prince attacked? His leg was bandaged but the blood was already seeping through the inexpertly bound fabric. Why did Sam fail on such a simple t

Sense of Responsibility

They decided to lay Katherine down on a makeshift bed as close to the King as possible, in the hopes that her magic power would spread over to him. Katherine herself was still pale, but her injuries had healed completely. It was a miracle. If only she could wake up, she could bless one more with this. But she remained deep in sleep, even when a maid washed the blood off her body and dressed her with new clothes.Though cleaned regularly, the wound on the King's chest had inflamed and he was running a high fever. The maid had called Lady Orchid back because the King was coughing up blood. Now and then, his breathing would just stop, and they had to shake him and hit his chest so he would start again. However, every such encounter inevitably worsened his injury. With normal methods, the King was long over the point where he could be saved. If not for the slim hope that Katherine might wake up and help, even the caregivers would have advised to just let him pass over the river a

An Icelandic Girl

"He always seems like he is interested in girls", Nathaniel played along, though his voice sounded a bit off. "How would you know it is for real?"Lifting the skirts as quietly as possible, Lady Orchid hummed. "I am his mother. Who if not I would know the truth? He mentioned her already a year ago. I nearly forgot it if not for him talking about her again recently. Funny thing, he always boasts with the beauty of his... I can't think of a better word but 'conquests', though I'm sorry for the poor girls. I scolded him so many times, but it goes one ear in and the other out without brushing his brain even remotely ... whatever, in her case I didn't even get to know the hair color. Only that he admires her.""Admiration, huh?", Nathaniel repeated. He was distracted by the small sounds coming from the side. Though his gaze was averted, it was impossible not to think about what happened right next to him. How Katherine's fair legs would be exposed up to her hip, all the ten

Good Morning

Early in the morning, when the first rays of the sun crept into the cave, the surroundings were quiet and motionless. Some maids sat side by side, their heads leaned against each other and lightly snoring. Only the guards outside and Nathaniel were still awake. After checking the King's vitals for a last time, Lady Orchid had fallen asleep beside him. A while later, Aston had picked her up from the cold ground, wrapped a blanket around her and embraced her tightly. Despite the rough terrain, he managed to fall asleep after a while, his cheek snuggled on his mother's shoulder. It was quite cramped with so many people in the cave, but nobody seemed to care.Suddenly, there was a sound in the content silence. A groan. Nathaniel's eyes lazily shifted to the source. He blinked. With delay, realization sat in and his weary body straightened somewhat. "Good morning, your Majesty."The sea blue irises of the King shimmered behind blonde lashes. He didn't seem to be aware of hi

Why Didn't You?

It was three days later. The King's entourage had moved into a safe-house of one of the King's supporters. Unfortunately, a doctor had discovered that the spine of the King had been impaired during the knife attack, making walking alone a far-fetched dream for him. Since then, the King was grumbling and secluding himself in his sickroom. Everyone hoped that he was ruminating on a solution for the conflict right now and how to free the land of this devilish woman that was his wife. However, it was more likely that he was falling into depression and self-pity. Despite the dire situation, Nathaniel never moved from Katherine's side. He ate, slept and worked in the same room as his wife. Though, to be true, when working he mostly sat there staring into nothing and trying to think of a plan that would better their situation. Since most of the forces were now under the Queen's reign, they had to carefully consider every step they made. As the supposed murderers of the King

Strange Space

It was a spiral of colors. Katherine could see it clearly before her eyes. She also remembered that she had seen it before. Only then, she didn't know what it signified. It was a very beautiful and confusing sight, all those different colors mixing and constantly changing their property."I wonder what they are good for", she thought to herself and lifted a finger to touch them. At least, that was what she intended to do. However, her body felt so heavy and sluggish that she gave up on it soon. It was so comfortable just lying about. Why did she even want to change it?"Whatever, they might not feel like anything great", she consoled herself as her eyes followed a draft of blue that glided through the air like a fabric in the wind. "I still wish they would come here."Though she had watched the colors for what felt like hours, they seemed to be near and far at the same time, like the stars on the firmament. She doubted she could really touch them. They seemed to

Blackie

It took a while - she didn't know how long since there was neither day nor night - until she could move normally. The improvement was much faster than building up muscles, but sufficient to make her impatient.After she could move her limbs just fine, she discovered one big problem: there was no ground under her feet. When she moved her legs, it didn't propel her forward like it would on earth. She tried swimming motions, fluttering like a bird and everything that crossed her mind, but it didn't work.With a pout, she crossed her arms and pondered what else there was to try. Now, that she had worked off the sleepiness, staying still was very boring. The space around also didn't change much. She had noticed some patterns in the colors already. There were some who only passed by, mostly grey, red, and green. They never stayed long, floating at the edges of her vision. Then there was blue. Blue was the main color in this space. Though it was also floating in several parts and

Spit Me Out!

The wind was stronger this time, almost feeling solid. Surprised, Katherine noticed that the surface was neither flat nor pressing against everything it could reach, like real wind would. This was more like a thing out of wind that was tightly holding her hand.Katherine was excited. Finally, the wind didn't vanish the moment it occurred. She still couldn't grab it, but it was not so far off as the other times. She closed her eyes to analyze the feeling more. What shape did it have? What temperature?Wind usually felt cold, but this one was slightly warm. It made her curious. When she pressed it, her hand was repelled stronger the more force she used. She assumed that she could still press through it if she wanted, but was afraid the wind would vanish if she did so. So, instead, she tried to feel it up. Since she had to struggle out of the wind's grasp elsewise, she used her other hand for it.The surface was smoother than the side that held her, almost as flat as a
