Epic Of Bee Chapter 9
Advertisement
When I looked around I expected there to be a group of onlookers, or maybe even a few watchers. I didn't think that it would only be one extremely hot ferret girl with some mighty cannons strapped to her chest.
I temporarily forgot where I was and what I was doing as I stared at this Vixen. She was squeezing her legs together and she was pulling at her lips when I looked up.
"Sorry, we should have been a bit more discreet about that," I said to the girl as she looked me in the eye, and then she started to cry and ran off.
The whole thing was like I got hit in the face with a bat, but there was no pain. There was only the stunning feeling of, what the fuck just happened?
I turned to Messia, who watched the girl as she left, but she was smiling mysteriously and no longer out of breath. She then turned to me and gave me a knowing smile, but then took me by the hand and led me to the hut the other had entered without saying anything.
My thoughts were stuck on one thing right now that was the last thing that I should be focusing on. Girls and more than one always meant trouble… right?
Messia led me into the hut where Thiamon, and an older ferret man that was shorter than the chief by almost an entire head. The other four were sitting on the chairs that were in the hut a bit awkwardly.
The bulbous back ends looked to be not very chair-friendly. As tired as I was, I didn't want to try and sit down or something like that even though I wanted to.
"Welcome, Queen Ashia, I am sorry for you having to make a trip so early in your life. My name is Gargus, and I am the Sage of the Trees Path. You aren't from this world, are you? I can feel that you are not the owner of this body, but you own it now," Gragus said as I stood before him.

The other had heard the two of us talking about this on the way here so they didn't look surprised. Then Gargus spoke again, and this time the others, including Messia who still stood at my side.
"I have been waiting for you, and the other thirty-five sage on this world. We did not know when you would come, only that you would," Gargus explained.
"Pardon? Thirty-five other people knew that I would come one day? How do you know there are only thirty-six of you and not more?" I asked in confusion while trying to keep my arms from flailing.
Messia had taken my other 2 hands for me, so I only needed to concentrate on the two on my left side making it a bit easier. Using arms on the same side still was a bit difficult, and I couldn't use them on one side like I could when using just the lower or upper sets.
"The Sages are all connected, and I have only ever met the Bee Kimdi, Sage of the Pattern Path. Personally," Gargus said, giving pause to stretch and yawn. "Sorry, I was sleeping before this, but personally, I don't think Kimdi is another good example. I cannot speak to the others, but I can feel them all over the world."
"Okay, but how did you know that I would come?" I asked, a bit skeptical, and also a bit annoyed.
Prophecy? Pft, now this was starting to sound like High fantasy mumbo jumbo. Sure, great to read about, but to live it?
Every MC that I had read about always got dragged through the dirt. This was always long before they ever got a hold of things, and then the books ended.
"We didn't know that you would come specifically, but travelers come every three hundred years. The legends are passed down through the Sages to prepare for the coming of such one," the elder ferret explained.

"So then what? I am supposed to save the world? Stop a great evil?" I asked skeptically.
"What? Why do you think the world needs saving? There are no wars, and there haven't been since the last traveler died. He was the start of the last war, and he was the one that was the great evil!" Gargus said, suddenly getting a bit excited, and stood on his chair to talk.
That surprised me. I expected they were waiting for me to come and save them, but no. They were waiting to see if I was going to be the evil the world needed saving from.
I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding, and then looked at the Ferret man. I wanted nothing more than to bee happy, oh no, the puns!
"I would like to build a safe home, with a bunch of cool people around me, nothing more. I would like to stay here with you all if that is okay? I don't want to take over. I just want to get used to my new body, and how this world works before we go any farther," I explained to Gargus.
"BWAHAHAHA!" Both of the Ferret men roared out laughing, both falling to the ground.
I was thoroughly confused by them, and what they were doing. When had I said something funny?
I cleared my throat because I feared they might not have stopped laughing if I hadn't. The two ceased their cackling, and they got up and dusted themselves off.
"What did I say that is so funny?" I asked, trying not to be rude, but I hated to be left out of a good joke.
"You said that you didn't want to take over like we would disapprove if you offered! HA! Be the best thing that happened to this lazy village! I will not force out issues on you, but just know that we wouldn't mind the extra directions. As you can see we are one of the least advanced races in this world, but we still enjoy life, hehe," Gargus explained with a big grin.

The main character returns to her deceased recluse uncle's home to get his effects in order. This is the beginning of a lovecraftian story inspired by somebody telling me about the Brombeermonster, a particulary nasty blackberry shrub overtaking her family's abandonned home. A backdrop for a story about eery and unexplained things if I ever heard about one. I will post the two parts I already posted on reddit; more maybe if there is interest from the community.

8 180Red Clay Technical Services: Mercenaries, Magicians, and Marketing
Bobby likes Pabst Blue Ribbon, NASCAR races, and throwing fireballs. A through and through Georgia boy, raised down in the sticks but now working with all things mystic. He is, in other words, a magician. Not just any magician- but one bound by the most egregious of terms: business contracts. See, a long time ago, Bobby got himself involved with a dragon whose business was making magicians, and Bobby wanted magic to be his business. Both of them having common interest, Bobby agreed to sign over his services in exchange for phenomenal (draconic) magic. A pretty awesome deal, right? The contract put him at the top percentage of human magicians, on top of having the backing of a dragon patron, and a fantastic set of benefits befitting an esteemed contractor, so it'd be smooth sailing from then on, right? Not so. That kind of power isn't granted without strings attached, and Bobby's practically bound up in them. Following the esoteric laws set forth by magicians , juggling them with the mortal interests he still has to abide by, and finding himself at the beck and call of a fickle and opaque patron makes his life as a magician a rollercoaster of ups and downs. But when his patron sets him on a strange task- with stranger company, no less, even Bobby has to question what his mission really is. Delving into fantastic crimes and cracking open mysteries is just the least he can do, and he'll do it with the help of his gun, his wand, and his trusted allies both large and small. --- Cover art is of the Georgia Guidestones. Chapters released on a semi-regular basis, at least one every two weeks, sometimes more. Also published on Offprint.net, Webnovel, and Scribblehub under the same title!
