《A Wolf's Way》Home at last
Advertisement
Back in the carriage, Lucio stared sourly at Gale who was several meters ahead of the carriage, riding bare back of all things! Even he himself couldn't get the horse to do as he wanted even with a saddle on and whip in hand! Lucio sighed, it wasn't fair why could Gale ride that damn horse when he couldn't?!? After all he was far superior being born of noble blood!
Of course there was more to it than that, Lucio just had a hard time admitting it "that time at the new student competition....did he let me win?" he thought to himself. During the final move of the fight Gale had moved in a way that left him completely open to be attacked, and for a while now, Lucio had been wondering if he had done it on purpose.
There was only one problem with his theory, he had absolutely no idea to why this could be if it was true, "I mean why would anybody ever want to lose a match?" he thought to himself still confused. This was in fact one of the reasons he had invited the other boy into his house, so as to see if there was a deeper meaning behind it.
However even with all his suspicions he still believed himself superior and thought that even if Gale was hiding his true skills he would be made to pay for underestimating him. How wrong he could be?

Three hours of riding later and Lupos could finally see the forest he called home as well as the Illio's estate "We're almost there kid." Yelled out the old carriage driver "I presume you'll be staying with the Illio's in the servants quarters?" Lupos hesitated a minute, before he had been ready to stay with the Illio's but being this close to home made him long for the forest.

Unsure about what to do he devised a plan "Jormugand," he started in mindspeak "if I left you near to the Illio's estate would you be able to get the information then find me again?" "yesssss," hissed Jormugand "Where should I meet you?" Lupos smiled "In the centre of the forest I'm going to go see an old snake."
Jormugand laughed "would this be the infamous Darius you're going to see?" Lupos continued smiling "Correct and you'll meet him soon enough too." the snake laughed and then fell silent for the remaining ten minutes of the journey.
As they approached the Illio family estate, Lupos slowed down his pace and trotted besides the carriage so as to talk to Lucio. "Young master, you have showed me such a kindness by allowing me to train with you so I could not possibly take advantage of your hospitality any further by imposing on you. As such I have decided to stay with some family around here and only come yo your estate to train!"
Lucio nodded in understanding "Of course but you must turn up to training at nine o'clock every morning or you shall make me lose face." Lupos nodded "Yes young master. I thank you for the usage of this horse and I shall see you tomorrow." Lucio smiled as Lupos dismounted Amazon and turned to walk away into the direction of the forest.
What Lucio didn't notice is that as he was talking to Lupos a large green snake slithered out from Lupos' bag and was currently hidden under his carriage. As the carriage departed Lupos smiled and immediately took off running towards the forest.
As he saw the familiar paths and trails, Lupos took off running towards Darius' hut happy to finally be home.

Path of Righteousness
What do you desire? What are you afraid of? You run away from one, pursuing the other. Is that all you are? Conquer your fears. Dig to the bottom and confirm, what you really want... ...For you cannot escape suffering and death. You only have a little time. Use it wisely. Uru, a young boy with no talent for magic or fighting, sets out on a quest to become an avatar of order, the physical embodiment of righteousness, in a distant future, where control of origin energy allows people to defy physics and manipulate causality. Mocked by fate and broken by impossible dreams, all that's left is to stand in defiance to cruel existence. Because there is a Truth out there, somewhere. Singular, transcendent, eternal. What would you sacrifice for it? *** This is a fantastic sci-fi epic. It's going to blend both western and eastern traditional fantasy tropes – like might & magic and cultivation – with rational sci-fi grounded fully in reality, to produce a purely fictional fairy tale. I'd like to deliver something light-hearted and yet wholly serious. An uplifting adventure exploring the unfathomable reaches of humanity, free of indecency, with a healthy dose of humorous banter, legendary beings, and most importantly – lots of exciting, firework-filled mayhem! I've tried reading many web novels, but there's a fundamental problem with them – the eastern ones are annoyingly repetitive, superficial and morally destitute, while western ones are often dark, convoluted and profane. There's only so much one can do to filter out the bad and try to fill in the gaps with their own imagination. It's one thing to eat tasty fast food, but if it's moldy and filled with toxins, then it's not only poisonous, but also disgusting. The appreciation of beauty and higher values is disappearing at an alarming rate. Although there are throngs of talented people out there, none of them are creating what I want to witness – an inspiring battle against impossible odds, ending in absolute victory. A triumph of the spirit so overwhelming, it crushes the spectator into his seat and takes his breath away. I'm looking for a real paragon, so now I'd like to try conceiving one. *** The MC's name comes from Tolkien's Elven dictionary in Silmarillion, 'Uru' meaning 'Fire', and 'Dagnir an Uruloki' meaning 'Slayer of Dragons'. *** Note: I'm neither a native speaker, nor an aficionado of literature – I've never written anything before, and despite proficient English my literary prowess is abysmal. It therefore takes me a painful amount of effort to polish the chapters and bring them up to par. Last year I wrote and posted some on FictionPress, but I stopped since it wasn't going anywhere. The appalling amount of filth and mediocrity being peddled in all the media nowadays – a result of no conspiracy to manipulate the masses, but plain supply and demand – is no longer just the triumph of form over substance, but most worryingly corruption of the latter. Who wants to read about ideals anymore? And yet, masses flock together to gobble up perversion and depravity. That being said, I can't rule out pitiful exposure as the culprit to my failure, so I am now once again trying to increase it here, possibly for the last time. If there are still human beings present, hungry or in need of a detox after eating too much garbage, make yourselves heard, so I can see a reason to continue the story. Otherwise it's pointless – I'm not going to make fodder for the masses, and I'm most certainly not going to throw pearls before swine. I'll simply stop writing altogether.
