607 Bureaucratic Roadblocks(Part One) Jonathan felt almost numb as he trudged through the snow, trailing behind the two elder Fae. They’d been extremely patient with him and his slow pace, at least that’s what he’d thought. Until an oversized grizzly bear had appeared, and they told him to get on it’s backside. The whole ordeal had taken Nic and Maevis over ten minutes, but they had eventually convinced John that riding while they flew would be much faster. It’d been a terrifying…-

606 The Fall of Dragonhorn(Part Three) ***WARNING: LANGUAGE, VIOLENCE, MASS DEATH, AND DISTURBING CONTENT*** The moment that Benzo had killed Cu Sith, the people of Dragonhorn knew that they were lost.

605 The Fall of Dragonhorn(Part Two) ***WARNING: LANGUAGE, VIOLENCE, GORE, DEATH, AND DISTURBING CONTENT*** Cu Sith hadn’t liked Zas very much after their first meeting, but she’d come to call him friend over the past year. He had drank with her and Jonathan on his limited days off, as well as just visited to chat while Skye and Tidas had been in the Highlands. Cu had truly thought that Zas was her friend, which made the situation all the more painful for her. Feeling her heart break as she…

604 The Fall of Dragonhorn(Part One) ***WARNING: LANGUAGE, VIOLENCE, GORE, MASS DEATH, AND GRUESOME CONTENT*** Zas could smell the blood before he’d realized what had happened. The world around him slowed and blurred as the final shred of hope he had to save the people of the town vanished. As the man fell to the ground, the crowds fell silent.. Heavy clouds that had been sprinkling snow for the majority of the morning began to rain down massive, fluffy flakes onto the stunned townsfolk. Not…

603 Unreasonable Request The early morning hours were far busier than normal, drawing the majority of the residents from their beds. Before the sun was up in the sky, the majority of Dragonhorn was awake and moving. As a few loaded up their wagons and horses, most just came out to see who was leaving. Out of the roughly ten-thousand people, only three thousand or so were up for the purpose of actually leaving. Neighbors gathered in groups, and openly discussed the ones packing with a mixture of…

602 Town Meeting Previously, Back In Alcon... “I see Dragonhorn’s gates! Hopefully, it’s not too late for them to call a town meeting!” Nicolas screamed from Hugo’s backside. After regaining her strength, Maevis had hopped off of the bird’s back, and was leisurely keeping pace with him as she thought. As soon as she’d heard Nic’s voice, she’d cleared her head, and focused on the task at hand.. “I see it! Why don’t we split up with Hugo, and have him search the orchard for…

601 Building Worries **WARNING: EXTREMELY GRAPHIC SEXUAL CONTENT** Skye stared into the earnest eyes of her husband as she spoke; “So if ya saw a child dying on the side of the road, would ya leave her there if I told ya to?” “Why would you?” Tidas asked incredulously as they stopped in front of their door. “That’s not-it’s a hypothetical!” Skye snipped; “Would ya do it?” “Of course not. It’s a child, for crying out loud,” Tidas replied gruffly. A small, soft…

600 To Ease Her Heart “What did he mean?” Hang asked after Tidas was out of sight. Genie looked at the picture, then back at Hang; “This man most likely wasn’t a real assassin, at least not in our sense of the word. He was probably a soldier that got accepted into the shinobi program, and subsequently washed out.” “How can you tell?” he asked. Genie held up the picture; “Aside from the fact that he was missing important details about his target? ..No professional would bring a…

599 The Real Threat After the attempted assassination, it was going to take quite some time to fix Mei’s courtyard. She wanted to stay in Hana’s quarters, but Hang was against it. Not them being together, just the place.. “You two and Rukia can take my quarters, and I can move to one of the basic guest quarters. I’d rather you and our daughter have as much security around you as possible, and only your father’s quarters are more secure than mine. You three will be fine in my rooms, and…

598 Tea Time, Interrupted(Part Two) ***WARNING: LANGUAGE, VIOLENCE, AND DISTURBING CONTENT*** As soon as the assassin had finished speaking, he shot a smaller fireball at Skye while accumulating a massive one with his other hand. His flames grew hotter as the fireball reached the size of a stagecoach, then stopped growing. Skye had lept back and was watching him as she poured magic into the ground through her feet. The assassin obviously knew as he smirked at her, seemingly unperturbed by the…
