Kace quickly agreed, after all, the weapons that he could already see were plenty good enough. 'Your house, your rules.' He thought with a smile. He would not look a gift horse in the mouth, nor would he kick a hornets' nest. He eagerly awaited the moment Sonja passed the threshold to the weapons hall. Leaving him alone with all of its glory. His eyes felt restless as he struggled to keep them fixed on any single weapon for any amount of time. He felt as though he had spent a long time browsing, but in…

"Come again?" Kace stammered as his jaw hit the floor. "I said, this is for you." Sonja giggled like a schoolgirl. She was extremely pleased with his reaction just now. To be fair if he had shown that he was not interested at all, she probably would have just killed him on the spot. Kace took a few tentative steps forwards as he ogled the armour. For a while now, he had felt that his previous set was lacking. However, he could not bring himself to part with it. Not only that, but he initially had no idea…

Kace almost spat out the water he was sipping on when the heavy door to the room was blown inward. It completely flew off of its hinges and slammed into the wardrobe beside his bed. Shattering it into tiny fragments that sprayed over the floor. From the doorway, Sonja came marching in unannounced. Kace was taken aback by her boldness as she seemed uncaring about how much of her legs she was currently showing off. The snow-white dress she had on was knee length but had long slits going up the sides. If she…

Kace groaned as his eyes flickered open. His vision was blurry as a dark shadow passed over his line of sight. His body felt stiff and tender as the aches in his bones and muscles made themselves apparent. 'Ugh, where am I?' He wondered, his mind was still groggy from having just woken up. "Finally awake. That's good. Thought you might. Take a bit. Longer, though." Grugda said solemnly in his rough tones. Kace tried to reply and ask him a few questions. However, he soon discovered his mouth was as dry as…

Sonja was growing impatient that Kace had not awoken yet. She had spent the time waiting for him planning her wedding and beating the crap out of Sophia day-to-day. 'At this rate, will he ever wake up?' She wondered just as Celia arrived. "There has been no change. Your Majesty." Celia respectfully reported as soon as she entered the room. "If he does not wake up in the next two days maybe I really should kill him. Just for making me wait." Sonja mused as she sat back in her chair. It felt extremely…

"When will he wake up?" Sophia asked in a desperate tone. Grugda, who was sitting by Kace's bedside, continued to ignore her. He had grown tired of hearing this question repeatedly for the past week. Instead, he continued to apply the salve that he himself had made to Kace's torso. "Say something!" Sophia screamed furiously. Unable to bear the silence anymore. "Calm yourself." Celia's voice entered the room as the heavy door creaked open. "Your screaming won't help him to recover any faster dear.…

"What do you plan to do with him?" Celia inquired with a hint of concern in her voice. "Nothing much. I'm just going to take him as my disciple." Queen Sonja replied with a carefree tone. These words sparked a sharp intake of breath from Celia. 'Are you kidding me! You! Take a disciple! He'd be better off if he were dead!' Celia thought although she would never dare to say it aloud. Instead, she opted for a more tactful approach. "He's a lucky man to have you watching over him." Celia said instead as…

Kace felt a sudden change in Sonja's demeanour. Although she was being pummeled, he felt as though he were the one that had been caught out. A few minutes passed of him mercilessly beating her, being sure to keep her against the wall, so she had no means of escape. He noticed that she suddenly slid slightly towards the ground between his latest blows, and this had him worried. 'What the hell is happening?' He wondered as he watched her slide slightly again before his next impact. Then it dawned on him.…

Kace felt something strange withing his body at that moment. It was as though all of the blood in his veins had been set alight. The pain was excruciating, causing him to halt his advance. He fell to his knees and dropped his halberd on the ground. 'Fuck! What the hell is this!' He grasped his chest and sides with his now free hands. He felt as though he were trying to hold his body together. He could feel the energy flowing through his body, expanding as it went, seeking a means of escape. Soon, the…

Kace flexed his fingers as he felt the power rushing through every fibre of his being. He had to admit that he liked this feeling. It was almost to the point where he felt as though the price had been worth it. Almost. Sonia eyed him warily as he performed a few simple movements. From that alone, she could tell that he had gone through significant changes. 'Damn, this could get ugly.' She thought as Kace looked at her and flashed a terrifying grin. 'Let's see what I'm capable of now.' Kace thought to…
