《That Time I Fell From The Sky》Chapter 3: Escape
Advertisement
With a cold look he stares at the guards waiting to see what happens next. 'Who will attack next? What will they use? Magic or weapons?' He thinks about these endless questions as he watches the guards as they tremble in fear after they had just witnessed their strongest leader get defeated before their very eyes.
Without knowing exactly how their strongest leader got defeated by such a 'small' girl they soon start asking questions, "what just happened?" "Renol is down!?" and soon these turn into confusions among the guards, And unfortunately for them this also solidifies the rumors they previously heard about her.
"We can't defeat her!" some of the guards air out their fears, "even Emagication can't kill her!" with such words the confusion only grows more.
Seeing this the lord's guards shield the fat lord to protect him. "what are you all doing, Kill Her!!!" says lord Mo' Ron. Every other guard surround Roz with spears and swords.
'I can barely stand,' Roz thinks as he looks around for a way out of this mess. "hey Rayer, you there?" he asks her.
"y- ya" she speaks. Faintly.
"ha ha" he masters a weak faint laugh, "you too huh? That Emagication thing really did a number on us."
"I am surprised am still alive. I guess i can thank you for that... Hey, everything was blurring for me after the Emagication spell was done on me, what happened?"
"Well, i took down your muscle boy over there," he slowly turns his head to look at the passed out Renol on the ground.
"What!? How?"
"The question you should be more focused on is how the hell we are getting out of here. Am open to ideas."

"Let me think," she goes quiet.
The guards start closing in on him and though they are afraid they seem to be courageous enough to fight someone they cannot defeat.
"Any time soon Rayer, can't pretend to be strong any longer and soon they will figure it out and attack"
"I hear you but I need more time"
"Please think faster because those pointy spears look like they are going to hurt when they hit me," he jokes as he holds his stance.
"Ok ok!!" she snaps, "uhm... Renol"
"yeah, what about him?" he turns to face him again.
"Renol must have a red bottle on him. Find it"
"Sure, and how will it help?" he quickly kneels down. Actually, he falls to his knees. "Damn, i am seriously wasted," he says as he searches.
"Found it!" he pulls out a small red bottle from Renol's clothes and it contains a seemingly red liquid inside it .
"Drink it"
"What??"
"Drink it now! It will renew your strength"
"Ok, sure" he drinks all of it and within seconds he starts to feel much much stronger. "Ohh ho ho.. now that's what am taking about," he smiles as he moves his arms around. His body feels lighter.
As soon as his strength is restored Rayer starts chanting some spells and a small stream of air begins to circle around him forming a small whirlwind that grows rapidly.
The guards see this and they rush to attack him before the spell is complete.
Rayer controls his hands and spreads them out and immediately the small whirlwind blows everyone in sight. The whirlwind grows even bigger and clouds up the entire arena with strong dusty winds. Everyone starts exiting the arena in masses.
Roz seizes this opportunity to escape and heads back towards the exit where even the guards are escaping for their lives.

He quickly runs through the hallways and passes the cells and sees the final exit up ahead.
"Help! please help!!!" he hears the busty girls' voice call out to him in the cell right next to him and he stops and turns. "Please help.. get us out of here," she begs him.
He grabs the lock and pulls. It snaps and the three escape along side all other prisoners who were locked with them.
They steal the first carriage they find and escape.
***
As the sun sets the mages finally manage to cancel out the whirlwind spell that Murler cast on the arena and slowly the dust clears.
The guards and the mages sweep through the dust to pick up corpses and survivors. The corpses are bagged and sent out while the survivors are healed with healing magic by the mages.
After a long while searching they finally find Renol among the dusty rubble. The guards pull him out and the mages heal him with magic and he wakes up and he is very angry.
"Sir the healing magic is complete are you feeling well?" the head mage asks him.
Renol stands up and looks around at the arena seeing what the spell Murler cast has done.
The arena is generally fine but all things that were loose have been completely displaced from where they were before he passed out.
He looks down at his hands in silence for a short while and he slowly takes a deep breath.
He slowly walks back and sits on the chair the guards brought him and asks them, "what happened?"
The head mage tells him the full account of what happened and where she was last seen heading.
Renol slowly gets up and commands the mages.. "Get your men. We are going on a witch hunt."

Ardent Tears
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.] Youth is something to be treasured, for it is the foundation upon which all experiences are built. It is also a time when some may Awaken as Ardents or Stoics; individuals who can draw great power from the Resonance of emotions. Rowan’efrii is one such youth, but at what cost? This is the story of her journey; of love and loss, friendship and isolation, fortune and tragedy. What can a girl do when she is faced with all the wonders and horrors that the world has to offer? Live! In the Kingdom of Særis, a group of renegade lords are seeking to enslave young adolescents to forge them into Ardents and Stoics. Those that fall will be used in a war against the Azure King. Will they break Rowan, or will they turn her into the very thing that will destroy them. Ardent Tears focuses heavily on all kinds of relationships including: romantic, familial, platonic and sexual. The MC is a clear example of this, especially as she is poly. Because of this, I gave the story my own Poly Tag. This won't be anything like a Harem story and it is being written by someone who is polyamorous (me). There is also going to be several LGBT themes throughout which can't be represented through Tags. Ardent Tears is now on Top Web Fiction. If you like the story, I'd appreciate it if you give me a boost by following this link and pressing boost. Massive thanks to KrazeKode for the amazing cover art. And special thanks to MelasD and Selkie for the shout-outs.

8 115First Iteration
What is a soul ? Is it your true self ? Would you be the same if your soul kept traveling from life to life but your memories faded for each new life you had ? Your education would be different each time, your growing environment would be different, your personality might change. So what is the purpose of the soul ? Mortals never got an answer for this question. Finding an exact definition didn’t matter for them, what they knew was that a soul allowed reincarnation. Even if they lost some memories, getting glimpses of their past lives was more than enough. Getting the possibility of a new life, a better life was what they thrived for. This became an even greater truth as progenitors, the first of their cycle, became scarce. As hundreds of new progenitors were born each century, nowadays, no more than a handful of them appeared every 200 hundreds years. As they represent a new cycle, they embody new opportunities: some progenitors have made kingdoms, others have been their doom. So when four of them appeared at the same place, at the same time, how can it not be perceived as a sign ? A sign that things were about to change…
