What he planned to do was anything but orthodox, and less than normal–in fact, this would normally be something of an act that would land one on a list, but he had on advantage he planned to use to its fullest: Right now, once again, I’m a twelve-year-old boy! That means–I’m totally innocent! Free of suspicion! This is my chance! I’ll take a bath with Celly! He thought. With utmost confidence, he tossed his clothes away as if he was some sort of male dancer, tossing them to the floor as without…

“That’s pretty much how it went,” Julius finished his story. For a moment, he was totally silent as he looked up at his father in awe. Amidst the recollection of the journey from Julius, he was so engrossed that he could visualize it for himself. He wanted to experience it for himself; the mystery of an unknown land, traversing its obstacles, and overcoming trials. “I want to go there someday,” he said, looking at the fireplace. Julius laughed a bit then stopped, looking at him, “Wait,…

“…Phew…” Standing in the sea of pale white, he exhaled a misty breath between his lips, looking towards the cavern. THUD. THUD. THUD. The stomps of something massive were approaching from the bowels of the shadow-covered cavern. Around him, the perpetual blizzard of the hellish region of ever-winter roared, swirling as the rain of snow pelted his pale skin. The tips of his ears, his nose, and his fingertips were red from the biting frost, but he still held a confident smile as he slowly…

The cold winds of winter howled, arriving with an abrasiveness this time around as snow quickly piled up around Yullim. “Brrr…” He sat in front of the fireplace, rubbing his hands together as he kept a plaid blanket wrapped around his shoulders. “You’re not cold?” He asked, looking over at Irene. Irene was reading a book as studying for her own learning of the language, but she was still wearing a light dress that certainly did not aid in repelling the cold. The girl with frizzy, but long,…

He stood his ground as sweat trickled down his cheek, watching as the massive, scar-covered goblin began to rush towards him with its heavy stomps echoing out against his ringing ears. …Hold! He thought to himself. Just as it stomped within reach of him, rearing its club that was larger than him back, he sprung forward with his sword tightly gripped between his sweat-laden fingers. “Raaagh–!” The burly goblin let out a deep roar. As it swung its club down towards him, he swiped his left hand,…

With how many goblins there were and how plentifully they came through the small tunnels, there wasn’t much of a point in hoping for his father to protect him as the man was already hacking away at goblins. The same went for Celly, who was focused on her own enemies– “Bring forth punishment to my enemies beyond the shores! Water Roar!” From the staff wielded by the silver-haired half-elf, a highly-pressurized spray of water lashed out at the drooling goblins that attempted to rush her. In a…

As the next day arrived, it was time to tackle the quest. It required a hike as the area they were sent to was in one of the opposing corners of the valley. …Nobody mentioned this part! We’ve been walking for three hours straight! He thought. To make matters worse, since they were climbing one of the trail-paved mountains around Yullim, he has to walk up an incline. “—” “C’mon, Emilio! Don’t tell me you’re tired already?” Julius yelled back at him with a smile. There wasn’t a…

…”The Cries of The Days To Come”; usually we’re ignorant to the pleas of spirits, but while under the effects of the “Soul Strain”, we can hear those cries. That’s what this is?…So, the spirits are trying to show me something? Is it a warning? He questioned. While pondering this, all that flooded his mind with that thought was the bleached world and the faceless man he kept dreaming about. But what he was perplexed about most was one thought–one that clung to his mind that made him…

“You are not worthy–yet.” –It was a cold, feminine voice. With those words, he felt the strength in his body sapped, convulsing for a brief moment as if an electric shock had just surged within his body. In a single blink of his eyes, the mystical scenery was ripped from him. “Wha–?!” He jumped, startled by the jarring shift as he was standing on grimy steps. The sudden change in setting made him stumble as he rolled down the stairs with a harsh tumble. “Ghh–!” Wincing, he landed…

As he etched these teachings into his mind, he was already getting to work on creating this gateway as he snuck outside with quiet steps, bringing only a small knife with him and his wand tucked into the pocket of his gray shorts. Around the side of the house, he stood in front of the cellar doors, which were hardly ever used as nothing of much value was kept in the cellar, as he was told. He brought the edge of the blade next to his palm, breathing in as he remembered the text once more: Drawn onto…
