132 Chapter 13The next day the Prophet was taken into custody discreetly by Lord Balrus, the Master of Spies but he was acting under the orders of the King. None of the good folks saw the Prophet being taken and that’s because the incident happened during the hour of the wolf and most of them were sleeping, ten guards who stood guarding the Prophet’s manse were put to sword and buried in the woods so no one may see them. His believers who rallied behind him and surrounded his manse were also taken…

The brothels and wine sinks were full with folks celebrating the birth of Prince Landan, they fucked and drunk to their fill as if they will not wake up tomorrow.…

130 Chapter 13The reluctant to let Artemis fly all by himself ate Aurora alive. She blamed herself for letting him go when he was in that situation. Leoric was practically teasing him, or worse what if he sets Artemis into a trap. Could he be expecting that Artemis will fly on his dragon to the Mines? Well the answer was no, neither Leoric nor Aeryn expected to see Artemis on a dragon. The Mines went on chaos as Artodo roamed the skies in clear daylight, it took Artemis only two hours to fly from…

129 Chapter 12Princess Aeryn neither wrote back to her brother nor did she ask for forgiveness, she remained in Storm Town until Leoric came to pick her up and they rode together to the Mines. A month after Petrus’s funeral, Leoric and Aeryn wed in the mass of all the slaves, servants, innkeepers, highborns, washerwomen and folks of all sort who were eager to attend the ceremony. Leoric did this because he wanted Artemis to know that he was in control of his sister’s life from then, this was what…

128 Chapter 12However, Aryan arrived at Rush’s brothel and met with none other than Lord of the Mines. These two weren’t strangers to one another, Aryan heard of Leoric’s golds and slaves and Leoric heard of Aryan’s bravery during the Battle of Stonedance and her impressive politics. Many praised her for how she was ruling Prophis in her brother’s stead. But never did these two cross path, this was the first day and you can imagine the stunned look on Leoric’s face the moment he saw Aryan in…

127 Chapter 12Early in the morning, Lady Aryan and Olivia were having breakfast as usual in the grand dining hall. Few artifacts and decorations were added to the hall, and it caught both Aryan and Olivia by surprise. There were flowers from every corner of the hall, a lion’s head at the top but it wasn’t really a lion but rather a statue made from clay, it resembled Gandalf’s statue which stood in the gardens. The chairs were different, at first the hall had brown wooden chairs but these new…

126 Chapter 12Lady Allysa arrived at the capital wailing and screaming, she’s been crying ever since her son in law, Jon Grimwald informed her of Petrus’s passing. “He was slit by mad men in the dark in Smoke street, the street is well known for bandits and outlaws” said Jon sadly trying to hold onto his mother in law. Ursula wept for her brother, but Daella didn’t seem to share the family’s grief ever since it was her brother who forced her to wed a fat old man for shilling, now he was…

125 Chapter 12The duel which was later titled as “Duel of Husbands” took place in the dark and under the open sky. They were all alone fighting with no one in sight apart from stars and the bright shining moon. Petrus fought to be alive, while Leoric fought to protect his secret from getting out. If Aeryn sent men to hunt down Petrus, then he must finish the task. That’s what Leoric said to himself. Petrus pushed back more and played defense while Leoric attacked. It only took one hit and Petrus…

124 Chapter 12The secret was out now and Lord Leoric knew better than to deny any of it. Perhaps Princess Aeryn was right and he should have avoided the meeting with the Master of Spies, yet there he was embarrassed to even talk. Lord Balrus continued “Why do you want to see the dragons?” “Because it’s not every day one gets to see a dragon, can you blame me for being excited?” replied Leoric. “I don’t trust you. I don’t like your presence in the capital, you are to leave at once…

123 Chapter 12When Petrus confined this to Aeryn, he was met with resistance as he expected. Princess Aeryn refused to go back to what she called “dumpy stinking hole” and claimed it was always raining and she was never happy there, and with Petrus’s mother gone and all the girls, Aeryn said she will go back to her melancholy days and forced to weep for her son. “I am happy here, I have things to do and people to meet. This is my home and I want to stay here” she said. “This is not your…
