The cacophony coming from outside sent Wren into high alert, clutching his gun again as he pointed it past Daniel toward the entrance door. He waited for a moment for something to happen, anything. People armed bursting in, ready to kill them. Infected monsters coming for their flesh. Even...

Wren looked between all the occupants of the room. This man, Adam, seemed honest enough. He couldn't sense any cunning vibe coming from him. He had put his weapon away, leaving himself vulnerable to them. It still could be a trap, but at this point, Wren was too exhausted to fight if a skirmish...

Wren blinked in disbelief. That guy had been following them since the rest stop? How the hell did that happened, especially since they walked through their fair share of large fields where you could see everything around for miles. And they've been walking for three days! If he really wanted to...

It was too bad none of them knew how to fish. Just talking about a meal made Wren's mouth water. The food he had eaten hadn't nearly filled him up, and he felt the hunger coming back to him. Fishing couldn't be too hard, right? On an island town like this one, there sure was a fishing shop...

They followed the road together for a few hours. Wren was doing his best to keep up the pace Daniela had set up despite his sore leg asking for a respite. But he just sucked it up and kept walking. Their walk through the forest had been rather uneventful. Wren had almost felt like they were back...

Wren, who had stopped breathing for a moment after he took his finger off the trigger, slowly let out of a breath of relief. He lowered his gun slowly, but he still kept himself ready to defend himself if he needed to. If his life of crime had thought him anything, it was that allies didn't mean...

The door slamming in the other room startled Wren, then the small gasp sent him into alert. Wren scrambled to his feet, grabbing the handgun in his inner pocket and pointing it at the open door behind him. When nothing happened, he slowly approached the door, soon meeting with a woman who was...

This rest stop had been a blessing to him. It was well hidden, the small dirt path that used to lead there had disappeared under the grass a long time ago, making it hard to see it without looking for it. It was in a state of disarray, yes, since nature had taken back everything it could, but...

METARALIS FULGURHIEL - ISLAND TWO Metaralis nodded to Ritcher with a faint smile. Despite everything put against them, most of them managed to escape with their lives. It was sad for those who died, but he believed in what he said. They knew that mission would be dangerous. They could have...

METARALIS FULGURHIEL - ISLAND TWO With the beast slain with his sword, Metaralis smirked with satisfaction. Hopping off the dead griffon's back, his expression contorted in a grimace. He was sore all over, especially his left shoulder. Blood was still oozing from his right leg, but at least his...

METARALIS FULGURHIEL - ISLAND TWO When the Griffin suddenly dove back down, Metaralis almost lost his grasp on the beast's ears. It crashed back on the small island, probably shaking the ground with the force of the impact. The small man lost his balance from the hit and it only took a kick in...

METARALIS FULGURHIEL - ISLAND TWO Before anybody could answer his question, the fog dissipated on its own, revealing what was lurking behind it: Griffins. Those beasts were usually found in the chain of mountains in the southern part of Du'Rym. They were territorial creatures, causing many...

METARALIS FULGURHIEL - ISLAND TWO Metaralis almost fell back into the river behind him when a woman just collided into him as she stumbled backward. He recognized her as a member of their group, and the one with a temper, too. And she was already barking angrily at him. "You are the one who...

METARALIS FULGURHIEL - ISLAND TWO Metaralis had fallen as the ground beneath him had collapsed under his feet. He crashed after a short drop into a pool of water, but it wasn't deep enough to break the fall. The black-haired mercenary pulled himself out of the small river, disoriented by the...

For the whole duration of the journey to the Floating Valley, the two mercenaries of Du'Rym had mostly kept to themselves, traveling behind the ground for the most part. Delastarh had found a way to hold onto his Kalisk with only his thigh and start sketching their surrounding in his journal. It...

Though Metaralis wasn't very satisfied with the response, he decided to not push further. The job of a mercenary wasn't to ask questions, after all. Instead, he turned around to look at the remaining beasts that they would use to travel. He approached one that wasn't too big, probably a little...

Metaralis and Delastarh were among the last to arrive at the tavern, a little bit after 11 am. They were late, but both of them were even surprised to have made it at all. Du'Rym wasn't exactly the closest nation from Argon. It took them almost two weeks on a boat to reach Namzu, and it took a...

The acute hearing of the cervitaur had alerted him of a presence approaching him from behind with a loud buzzing sound. Chul turned around as the insectoid landed on the ground. His first reaction was to smile at her in wonder. He had never met anything quite like this before. She reminded him...

It has been two weeks since the cervitaur had started to wander with no goal throughout forests and mountains. That was simply the life of a wandering druid: to follow the natural paths carved into nature itself. But it had been a while since Chul had seen any sight of town or civilization. He...

As the second wave of attack began, Chul watched his group carefully. He squeaked slightly as he saw William getting scratched in the face. The healer immediately came to him as he asked for help. "Of course, my friend. I am here for this," he said as he approached. "Do not move." The...
