Author: Endeavour 2020-09-06 22:51:43
Eldion could only watch from one of the surrounding towers of the ancient temple where he was brought by Alanca as two intruders suddenly appeared in the courtyard and fought the snake creature. Alanca probably sensed the intruders coming and left Eldion and his companions hidden in the tower while she fought the intruders. There were gaps in the crumbling stone walls below the large windows of the tower and Eldion could clearly see what was going on from where he sat with his back propped ag

Casser looked at Remuel innocently and said, “You know I couldn’t do that to you, my friend. You’ve known me for a long time. We’ve done business for so long that I could not remember the first one.”“It was the ring of Mendor, or rather a bad copy of the ring of Mendor, and I remember how that went,” replied Remuel.“I didn’t know it was just a copy,” Casser tried to explain.“I almost lost a finger because of that,” said Remuel. “Then, there was the ardap stone.”“I remember that. I sold y
Journey Through the Shadow Realms Chapter 90: The Emperor's Soldiers
Iridescent scales reflected the morning sun and a snakelike figure emerged from the darkness of the trees. She shielded her eyes briefly from the sun before slithering and coming to the courtyard where the outlaws were. She stared at the small group of people who stood in front of the tunnel entrance to protect the other outlaws who were trying to escape.Eldion gasped upon seeing Verna emerge from between the trees. Wen bit her lower lip as she tried to think what they should do. She knew that the ancient temple would be overrun by the imperial soldiers, but she did not know that it could happen so soon. Shaan was not with Verna and Wen feared for the worst. Verna’s face looked fierce, but Wen could tell from her sad eyes that there was something immensely wrong.Verna slithered out of the way as the trees behind her fell to the ground and a giant man with a troll-like face came out to the open. In his hand was a broadaxe which he had used to fell the trees in his path. He waved the b

Casser looked at Remuel innocently and said, “You know I couldn’t do that to you, my friend. You’ve known me for a long time. We’ve done business for so long that I could not remember the first one.”“It was the ring of Mendor, or rather a bad copy of the ring of Mendor, and I remember how that went,” replied Remuel.“I didn’t know it was just a copy,” Casser tried to explain.“I almost lost a finger because of that,” said Remuel. “Then, there was the ardap stone.”“I remember that. I sold you a real ardap stone at a good price,” said Casser.“Yes. It was real alright, but you forgot to mention o
Journey Through the Shadow Realms Chapter 88: The Demonstration
Lankko looked around him uneasily and stopped briefly when he saw one of the outlaws just behind Wen and Eldion. Then, he continued to sweep his surroundings but without really focusing on anything or anyone before going back to Eldion and walking towards him. Then, with slow seemingly exaggerated movements, Lankko handed to Eldion a pile of clothes which the latter accepted. Lankko mumbled something and Eldion nodded his head. Afterwards, Lankko stepped back and turned to face the center of the ancient courtyard where the stone table and Kora was.Kora was oblivious to the numerous eyes that had focused on her and Lankko. She moved her head from side to side before sitting on the stone table where she found herself. Lankko picked up Kora who seemed to recognize the man holding her. Lankko stroked Kora’s feathers and the chicken closed its eyes as if enjoying the attention she was receiving. Then, Lankko held Kora under one arm while
Journey Through the Shadow Realms Chapter 87: Outside the Tunnels
Enzir followed Eldion and Wen from several steps away as the two searched the tunnels for Casser. Enzir had worn the guard’s clothes and hid his hair using the guard’s head covering. Earlier, Mira through Wen, also made a few adjustments on Enzir’s appearance and instructed him not to have a too straight posture or he would stand out like a sore thumb. “Stand as if you had worked at the fields the whole day,” said Mira and Wen relayed her instructions to Enzir.“I haven’t worked any of my fields. I wouldn’t know how that would feel,” admitted Enzir and Eldion had to suppress a laugh.“You’ve lived a life of privilege,” sighed Wen. “Imagine fighting Verna the whole day,” she said.“Verna?” asked Enzir, not knowing the real name of the snake creature of Alanca.“You knew her as Alanca, but she told us her name was Verna,” explained Eldion
Journey Through the Shadow Realms Chapter 86: A Bolt of Energy
Earlier, Casser left Eldion and Wen with the knowledge that they had already healed Enzir. Wen and Eldion were surprised that Casser was able to find out that Enzir had already recovered from his injuries while Enzir had to comment on the merchant’s shrewdness. As the three were left by Casser in the cavern alone, they decided to talk about what they should do next.“It will just be a matter of time before Remuel finds out that you’ve healed,” said Wen. “And who knows what he’s going to do afterwards. We need to get you out of here quickly.”“I can’t go without Lankko. He is my Keeper of Secrets and I need to protect him. Also, you need the magic elixir he’s made to try and get Eldion to recover his memories,” said Enzir, looking intently at Wen.“But there’s the outlaw standing guard at the entrance,” added Eldion, waving his hand towards the entrance without looking.&ld

Enzir woke up with a start as he felt the warmth of the sun on his face and heard the different sounds of the jungle. He thought he was having a bad dream, but soon realized that he had been forced out of his castle fortress and the jungle might as well be his new home.He looked around hi
Journey Through the Shadow Realms Chapter 29: Stories of Alanca
"The story of Alanca is as old as the temple ruins that lay across the vast swamplands to the north of Alnoc." Enzir remembered his father telling him the story when he was still a boy.There once was a king who ruled over the lands that included the Alnoc and extending northwards up to th

Casser clicked his tongue repeatedly and flicked the reins to get Noha to go faster. Noha protested and looked behind her at Casser as if to say that she was already going as fast as she could. She brayed and snorted, then continued to plod along the moonlit road. Eldion looked repeatedly outside
