《Dungeon AI》Chapter 10 - King of Vanaheimr part 3/3

Still chuckling to myself, while leaving the shop. I started heading to the barracks with the two guards in tow. When the three of us got to the barracks. I told one of the guards to go inside and get Roddick and James.
But before they could show up, Korbin came out of the castle and started coming over to me. "Sir, the wagon will be ready by tomorrow morning. The cooks are making food for the trip and will be putting them in a bag of holding. I've also contacted the mayor and made him aware of their arrival in two days." Korbin always spoke in a solemn tone around others. What most people don't know was that the kingdom was run by two men.
The kingdom was always run by the royals member of the family and one from the Smith's family. The royal family would always have the negotiator class in the Smith's always had the strategist class. The Smith's would take care of all the logistics of the kingdom, and the Royals would always take care of the people.
But we always worked together on politics. The strategist class would make it so that we could see through all their plans and the negotiator class would make it so that we could stop or change them for our benefit.
Korbin was a Smith and had been with me since I had turned 12. Korbin was possibly my best friend. He also knew all of my secrets. Korbin then spoke up "Guard I need you to leave go and wait for your friend in the barracks" after the guard left. Korbin turned back and looked at my hands. My left hand was in a cotton glove while my right was in a rough iron gauntlet.
My secret was that my right hand was gone severed at the wrist. It was severed in the attack that took my son and injured my daughter so badly. I still get lost in the memories of that night Even now. I was beginning to get sucked back in when Korbin interrupted my thoughts while looking concerned "Tyson, are we planning on taking the healer back to the castle?"
My voice was quiet while I spoke "yes, but I don't want her class to be wiped out again. So, when she heals my hand, she can be sent back" Korbin looked thoughtful. "are you sure she could be infinitely useful. Can I at least try to make her an offer to stay" I was hesitant to answer? "yes, but be careful we might need her again?

The two guards I had asked for finally showed up. Rodrick was a well-trained assassin and knew all the tricks to the trade, which is why he was such an amazing bodyguard. He was 168 cm tall and was one of the few elves I'd ever seen managed to grow a goatee.
James was one of my best rangers and worked well with Roddick. The two of them were best friends. James was a little bit more heavily muscled than Rodrick and was 172 cm tall. He was handsome for an elf with a lantern jaw.
They both walked up and saluted. I smiled while speaking "no need for that, the two of you are going to be watching after my daughter. Both of you will be escorting her for about a week. All of you will be going to irontown and back. There will be a warlord and a servant as well as several priests from the Goddess Temple. Do the two of you have any questions?"
James and Rodrick looked at each other. Rodrick then asked, "King what's the purpose of us bringing them there and back. And why do we need a warlord?" The King answered. "The servant's name is Millie, and she will give you the information after you leave the capital. As for the warlord. It's Anna, and You know how she is around, um, everyone."
James and Roddick both smiled and said: "don't worry, we'll take care of it." In unison, they turned around and went back into the barracks.
I turned to Korbin "make sure Nola has all the information she needs before leaving"
-"I will, but you need to get ready for the peace talks."
grimacing I said. "Today was going so well, and then you had to bring up paperwork. My father died to paperwork, and I would prefer not to end up the same."
-Korbin smiled when he replied."your dad's fine, I saw him yesterday. And it's called retiring due to paperwork related injuries. One day you'll get to do it too."
I let out a true grin at this point because if that healer was real, my daughter would be complaining about paperwork soon too.

Domhain: A Modern Fantasy LitRPG
(Blurb) When Ardan, a teenage elf boy, is thrown into the world- his world, of distrust and tension, he wants only one thing. To live a normal life, get a job, make friends, even start a family. But either dumb luck or fate won't leave him alone. With the power of a game system and magic, he's determined to find out the reason he was picked, and what makes him special. Along the way, hopefully meeting new friends and learning some magic here and there. (Synopsis) Domhain - a world split between five nations and five unique magical gifts; home of elves, dwarves, goblins, trolls, and humans, each of them so different but in reality more alike than anyone would like to acknowledge. Twenty years ago, the humans, weakest of the five, secretly acquired powerful magic and set out for war. The united forces of the other nations stood no chance. Humanity prevailed, proving itself as the new leader of the modern world. Now, Domhain is at peace but tensions are rising again. The humans want more than their territory back. They want it all. And they want revenge. But this time, the elves hide a dark power, and will stop at nothing to wipe the humans off Domhain forever. War is inevitable. Thousands will die. And the power to stop it all falls into the hands of none other than a particularly tall fifteen-year-old elf orphan. Ever since he could remember, Ardan lived a normal, sheltered, life in an elven orphanage. On the day he's finally able to leave for good and start his independent life, something strange occurs. He is given a pill, a gift, that turns his life into a game with levels, quests, dungeons, and a... talking weapon? All of which are capable of transforming his body and the world around him. As if that weren’t enough, Ardan learns the orphanage has hidden natural magic from him, and the whole world is intertwined with it. More importantly, he, as an elf, has a particularly unique and powerful heritage. That heritage, along with the benefits of his new power makes him a target for the greed of many... With nothing but his friends and a incredibly smart sister, he is determined to find out what makes him so special. Who can he trust?

Deviant's Masquerade: The Huntsman's Quest (An Urban Magic Quest/RPG)
Jon Whitaker went to summer camp expecting a nice relaxing time as a newly minted counselor in training. He was not expecting to fight an army of monsters, work with a serial killer, enter a one-sided friendship with an eldritch horror, or study under a competing witch and dark lord. But regardless of what he was expecting, his summer is over and he's made his way back home where he can try and return to a normal -for him- life. Too bad life rarely goes as expected. --- Please Note: This is forum quest/RPG I run in the same city/setting as my other stories Hacking Reality and Get Ink'd, meaning that while a majority of the plot is made up by me, the major choices as well as what each chapter is about are usually made by the actual readers in forum votes. Additionally, given how this is essentially a story version of a Tabletop game there is also a background RPG system that while the characters aren't necessarily aware of, the readers can see these stats to know how each chosen 'Action' effects their character's development.
