"We're finally back!" The group cried out in unison as they stood before the city gates.
"Oh, what are you young ones doing here at such a time? Don't you know it's already night? Why do you all look so battered up? Just what happened to you all?" A gatekeeper asked them.
"Tons of things... Can we go in now? I want to take a shower and go to sleep so badly. We are so exhausted right now." Maria said immediately as she looked at the gatekeeper.
"Uh... Sure? Go on, make sure you all get enough rest. You all look like a mess and that you could fall unconscious in just a few seconds." The gatekeeper said as he opened the gates for them to pass through.
"Thank you..." They all said as they walked inside the city as if they were zombies.
"What do you think happened to those kids?" A man running a stall asked a nearby vendor.
"Who knows? They were out for quite a while. Maybe they saw something horrifying? Maybe they saw an orc or something along the lines of that." The nearby vendor said as he went back to preparing his items.
"Maybe so. They look bruised up but they don't seem to be missing anybody from their group. Well aside from that little girl. However, I didn't see her go out with them in the morning anyway. Oh well, as long as they're safe and there isn't anything catastrophic lying outside our castle." The man running the stall muttered to himself as he started to place his products in front for everyone to see.
"Selling silk from the capitol! 20 gold coins a yard! Come get them now before they run out!" He started to advertise as well as all the other stalls and vendors in the city.

"Looks like you're all finally back." Sylvie said as she was sitting at a table while enjoying her parfait.
"We almost died you know! And you're just here enjoying a meal. Isn't that a tad bit unfair?" Sam asked her.
"Not at all, I have a lot of power unlike you all. Therefore, you're the ones that need training, not I." Sylvie said as she shook her head before indulging herself with another spoonful from the parfait.
"So what are we going to be doing after this?" Chad asked her as the group made their way to her table before sitting down.
"We're going to escort people through the Lurking Waters of Death. Did ya forget? We will be heading out in two days, so prepare yourself. And naturally, it's going to be dangerous. Maybe you'll find a water dragon, Lance. This could probably be used for the katana you want to be crafted by that blacksmith." Sylvie replied as she smiled at them.
"Ugh... Why is it called Lurking Waters of Death again?" Chad asked her.
"Because anyone that gets near or falls into the water is never seen ever again. It is highly suspected that there are multiple A-ranked monsters in there. Maybe even an S-ranked monster that lurks deep within its depths." Sylvie replied as she chuckled a bit looking at how pale Chad had become.
"Please let's not go. Can we decline the mission?" Chad pleadingly asked.
"Nope!"

Viridescent Core
Some mortals see dungeons as a plague to destroy. Some mortals see dungeons as a resource to manage and harvest. Some mortals see dungeons as a place to train and advance. However, all of them agree on something. Dungeons are unnatural and deadly. Places where death stalks every corner and monsters thrive. What mortals forget, in their hubris of tools and civilizations, is that Mother Nature is often the deadliest of all. Feel free to write any comment, suggestion, or criticism. I read and appreciate every single one! Releases are on Mondays and Thursdays. With occasional bonus chapters on Saturdays. Have a nice day ^^

Toothpick
“Hello! My humble audience! I, the Bard of the North, am going to tell you a tale. Nothing new, nothing old. A story of a hero, some may say, others a poor boy who was hated by the world.” The storyteller paused as he waited, right timing was everything when telling a story. Pacing… Too slow and the audience became bored then left without tossing even the smallest of coins. If he spoke too fast and rushed the story. It would leave the audience confused and having no reason to be impressed. So like any good storyteller, the Bard has to do a balancing act of sorts. Not too slow, not too fast. Just perfectly in the middle. “In a shattered country in the south, a novice princeling has the ambition to mend a torn tapestry that is his birthplace. Struggling to fend off those who would usurp the throne in an unending civil war spanning centuries. A mercenary that left only death in his wake, unable to stave off the monotony and peace of life. He looks back at the path laden with bodies, wondering if it was all worth it. Wandering souls summoned by a madman, travel away from a wasteland in a foreign land, the first alone, the others as companions. A deity, ancient in her years, waiting to be freed from a duty she no longer enjoys. For all these people and their stories, none are the hero of this tale. No, the hero is not grand, not wise, not ready.. he was punished for nothing of his doing, who was an outcast that was unloved by many, including his father.” This was always the big reveal novices use to jump off into their story. He did not start here, instead, like any good fishermen, he set the bait and waited until the fish bit before pulling. As he saw the audience's eyes focus, he then started the backstory. The harness, that stopped the listeners from having metaphorical whiplash. The foreshadowing. “But that is not where the story starts. No, not even the hero's birth. Where the story begins, is the boredom of the deity, a deity many know of. She who hunts for the impossible, the guide for those who have lost the path, the Huntress of Mallon--” A small pause, a short breath. “--All old names for a single powerful being that has roamed the grounds of this continent longer than any line of kings or queens, lords or ladies. A being of worship for many an individual…” One last breath. And he began singing the first verse.
