Many opposed the decision to call it the Path, as to avoid bringing bad memories of their old life, but once they understood the defiance and mockery of calling it such, they also agreed with the name. Their Path wouldn’t be a farce, it would a proud statement of their power and freedom. The Kingdom could build an illusion connecting the cities and villages, but they would build something that really worked inside the Forest. It would cost them a lot, but they were used to working tirelessly. While…-

Year 3, Fall, First Month, Third Week. “Can we help you with something?” If these repetitive interruptions were done by anyone other than Diana, Karl would probably lose his patience, but for the Councilwoman he would answer without a hint of impatience. “Not really, you should be well rest, though. Samia might need your help to bring my disciples safely…” Seeing that the answer hadn’t satisfied her and finding a trace of curiosity towards his drawings, Karl decided to explain the…

Two days before… “So, any ideas to deal with the beasts once I get to the vein?” Wein answered without considering much. “Just use a barrier like we’re doing here…” Anya barely contained the urge to beat him up, how could he be so simple-minded. “Don’t be stupid! Master taught us about the limitations of the bubble barriers… Although they are extremely versatile, they lose efficiency and weakens over a large area…” Karl and Oliver exchanged a helpless look, they were…

Year 3, Fall, First Month, Second Week. It was used to smelling prey from far, it could even distinguish its taste by the smell. The silver wolf sniffed the air again before licking its lips, he smelled prey, not a big one or the tastiest, but prey nonetheless. It waited for the prey to approach, to deliver its delicious self to its maw, but the prey never appeared. Confused, the silver wolf sniffed again. The prey had changed directions and was now leaving, it tried to smell-track the prey through its…

In regards to farming, which was very important for their food security, they would need to guarantee a minimum production to sustain them and also discourage excessive production, at least until they could establish trading. So, some incentives would be given to the pioneers who decided to invest in farming, limited to a certain number, of course, and the Council would produce the rest of the food need for their survival. Now, about the other departments, hunting, crafting, health and Alchemy, the…

Year 3, Fall, First Month, First Week. To make the procedure official and avoid misunderstandings with the other Councilors, Karl decided the Alchemy oath should be a governmental matter, so he brought the situation to the Council. Unfortunately, this ended up raising another problem, their lack of goals, rules and even national values. How could the disciples swear allegiance to a community that didn’t have any common objectives besides striving for freedom? To complicate matters further, they were…

Year 3, Fall, First Month, First Week. “How can we pass through them?” The Council meeting fell into silence as the most important question was thrown on the table. After traveling for three months and facing more beasts than their numbers, they were finally close enough to their destination. Unfortunately, the last 50 kilometers were infested with MT beasts. Baiting them off their path was no longer an option because they couldn’t move through two kilometers without meeting another beast. The…

The shadow unit had already moved and Sania was now waiting for the signal to move in too. The raiding group was composed of 25 members, with six hunters of each position (attackers, archers and defenders), four carriers, one healer, one magic operator, and their fighting maniac leader. The operator had already reported the movement of the MT beast towards the opposite direction, but they needed the confirmation of a shadow (popularly used for the other two concealment users) before they moved. The…

Year 3, Summer, Second Month, First Week. The scalding sun burned Johann’s face, making him miss the protection of the wind domain’s suppression of other elements. He reassessed the color of the ex-villagers walking around him and bitterly had to admit their skin tone and marks were a result of exposure and not heritage as the nobles defended. Each day he felt more similarities between him and the so-proclaimed AK citizens, making his mind relive memories of his family. When he became part of the…

Year 3, Summer, First Month, First Week. The wood builder, the dream tool of all wood crafters, capable of shaping, bending, binding and changing the quality of wood at will. If someone had told Alfeur about it a few years ago, he would laugh at the person’s delusion, but now, not only the tool existed, it was also on his hands ready to be used at his heart's content. Unfortunately, having the perfect tool and the right resources would expose one’s inability for all to see. He was suffering from the…
