《The Tale of Gael》Caretaker - Prologue
Advertisement
Gael entered the small house where he and his mother lived. He was tired of the day’s work. He took off his leather gloves and washed his hands. Then a voice sounded from the other room.
‘Gael? is that you?’
Gael walked over. There his old mother laid ill in her bed. He sat down beside her.
‘How are you mother?’
‘Tired’, she said.
‘More of the same?’
His mother nodded.
‘More tired than yesterday, probably not as tired as I will be tomorrow.’
‘How far did you get?’, She asked.
‘I think we will be done harvesting the wheat tomorrow. At least I hope so.’
Gael's mother smiled. Gael never liked the wheat harvest, and she knew.
‘And how are the herbs?’
‘Willowscap is doing great. And Dyers Karamine seems to survive.'
'Good’, she said and turned her head and looked up at the ceiling. Gael kept sitting by his mother's side.
‘Will you stay?’, she asked.
‘I will stay with you mother.’
‘No, I mean when I’m gone will you stay on the farm?
‘Of course I will stay!’, Gael answered.
‘You could leave’
Gael hadn't really thought about life after his mother's death.
‘Ehm, I could leave in early spring. Leanhan could tend to the herb garden for a bit.’
‘I think you should leave.’
‘What do you mean?’
‘Your brother has Serah, and loves it here. You always dreamt of leaving the farm behind. Don’t stay here and slumber like us. Please go see the world!’
Gael started:
‘Mother, I...’
‘Promise me that you’ll leave.’, she snapped.
‘You cannot ask that from me.’
‘I can and I will! I think there is much more of this world waiting for you of out there.´
Gael stayed silent.
‘Please Gael...’
‘Okay then.'
‘Okay what?’
‘Okay, I'll promise to leave the farm.’
‘Good.’
His mother turned around and closed her eyes. Gael stood up and left his mother's bed. He thought about where he was supposed to go as he left their house. He closed the wooden door behind him.

Battlesquire Book I - First Blood
There was nothing Jess craved more than the rush of battle, having trained for endless hours in mastering all the weapons of war. She would do anything to prove herself worthy, anything to be granted the rights and privileges of every knight who fought for the Crown. Anything not to be relegated to the status of simpering handmaiden, a wallflower at court whose only purpose was to be meek and demure for the pleasure of arrogant men she despised. When a certain professor of etiquette makes it clear that she would see Jess broken and humbled, forced to submit to a lady's proper role, Jess will do whatever she must to escape that fate. Even if it means blackening her dagger for king and country, learning what it truly means to be a Squire of War. (Warning: Though it starts off gently - sex, graphic violence, heroism, and betrayal are all part of the story.)

Almighty Dung [Dropped]
Have you seen the future? I have not, nobody did, no one can. I see...have you heard of apotheosis' prophecy? What about it? Many didn't take it seriously, probably because nobody could crack its mysteries, but the indestructible prophecy rock has recently crumbled. It is a sign that things will change. ...What did the prophecy say? Sigh, you really don't know anything. There was a furnace drawn on the prophecy rock. There were three objects in it, named meaningless crown, black star and incomplete cross. When three signs appear the beast will awaken. Has the meaning been cracked? There are many hypothesis, but nothing concrete. The first object could have relation to king of some sorts, but in this vast universe there are many worlds, counties and kings. Who can really guess its meaning? It can also be metaphorical. What about black star? They say the second clue leads to eclipse, but this also says nothing. Third one? Cross is the symbol of divinity. The cracked cross might mean a lot of things, like person who wants to go against progenitor's ideas and laws and forcefully achieve divinity...It could also mean destruction of divinity, but something like that should be impossible... You're overthinking things. How could gods stay idle if someone is threatening their reign?Also, even if somebody is forcefully awakening, the gods will be alerted by commotion and won't let it succeed... Say, do you think that awakening beast is the one who will try to become one of us? Most likely. No, it's hard to say. The prophecy can't be that simple. This is nothing but wild guesses from our side. Alright, let's stop with depressing stuff. I found a nice place not too far from my domain constellation. Really? What's special about it? Nothing we've not seen before, except for a rare delicacy. They call it chocolate. Oh? Is it delicious? Yes, much better than slime candies you've been fond of. Are you free now? Of course! Then it's my treat. Be careful though, the sovereign over there is a bit low key, but very strong. You need to get to know world's customs first, we don't need extra trouble. No problem. We have nothing to do anyway, haha. What are we waiting for? Lead the way... Ark I - Invasion of thousand kingdoms (Chapter 1-???) Ark II - Nocturnal feast (Chapter ???-???) Ark III - False divinity (Chapter ???-???) Art by sandara on deviant art
