《Saer Servitude》Chapter 9
Advertisement
Fierlo showed no sign of wanting to go on another round of whore hunting when the sun settled on the horizon.
The incident had punched some sense into him. On the other hand, humiliation from Tadeas had ignited something else in Saer's mind.
Once again they found themselves walking in the street of Pryeg.
"What does his crystal ball do?" Saer asked.
'"Whatever it does, it must be doing fine. It was just a crack." Fierlo answered him.
"I worry more about his wife's head."
"Well, she was the one who locked the door, so my mind has got no room to worry about her wellbeing."
"Is here any safe place to sleep?" Saer watched around.
"Don’t you miss our horses?" Fierlo came with a question.
"They must be missing us too." Saer put a smile on his face and then they marched towards the stable.
A while later they reached in the, now overcrowded, stable.
It took them some time to spot their horses.
"Do they even feed these elegant creatures?" Fierlo caressed neck of his horse. Starvation was visible in his horse's eyes.
He collected a dry bundle of hay from otherwise nasty stable and started hand feeding his horse.
"I've got some for you as well, Saer." He said.
Saer didn’t answer.
"Saer, I know you are listening."
But it didn’t seem he was.
"Saer!" he hurried to turn back.
His friend was asleep on hay.

The night went by, but the smell didn’t bother any of them.
Sleeping along with animals with appeared to be a matter of comfort for some reason.
Before falling asleep, Fierlo was worried about moving feet of sleeping horses. But horses did not move their feet.
Saer opened his eyes after coming out of sleep.

Fierlo was still in dreamland.
Crawling towards Fierlo over horse excreta, Saer stirred him to break his sleep.
"Fierlo, we will try to convince Tadeas again." said Saer when his friend woke up.
There was no way Fierlo could take him with seriousness, "Try to find another way. He would never help us if we keep showing our kindness to him."
"I will tell him what happened to his son Hames."
"So you intend to break the vow you made to a dying man?" Fierlo dusted off dirt from his clothes.
"Not breaking. Just tweaking it a little bit."
"Don’t add another risk. You know how sacred vows are. You break it today and someday it will strangle you anyhow. What if the broken vow catches up with us on the day where it matters the most?" Fierlo had got worried.
"I'll say Calajhan injured or paralyzed his son. Tadeas might be becoming a prick now, but he is Hames' father. Nobody would let such thing let go. And see, we are cut-throats. Tadeas might tell us Calajhan's address just for the sake of vengeance."
Fierlo was compelled to think.
"If this works, I will believe there is something special in horse farts." Fierlo adjusted his clothes, "I'm ready."

Of Frost and Steel
After being kicked out of home by her own parents, Emily found herself living in the house of an old woman while working as a plumber to help pay the bills. Her slightly unusual but still very normal life came to an abrupt end one day when an incoming car crashed into hers. When she next opened her eyes, she found no ambulance or hospital room waiting for her. What she found were instead the faces of beings much larger than her who were not entirely human, and the opportunity to live a new life, free of her old one. WARNING: This fiction is dedicated to a friend of mine who spent twelve years of her life hiding who she was because she feared the reaction of her family. For this reason it contains LGBT themes, although they won't be the sole or main focus of the story. The story contains sexual themes, but I will try to keep them to a minimum or make them "fade to black". Chapters will be around 1000 words long and without a fixed release schedule, for the moment.

Magitech Awakenings
In this world of Terrapia, myth states that Dragons are caretakers of the chaos wheel, a band of energy that encircles the world, penetrating through the very fabric of the dimension. They tame and convert it, not only to fuel their primal magic, but also to gentler forms that man and beast alike can tap. But now they have faded away, being sighted less and less the past couple millennia. With magic weakening, science has taken root and in many cases merged in a symbiosis with magic. Guppy Bright, a 17 year old young woman, is a technomancer apprentice living in the bustling city of Nolusburg trying to make ends meet. Apprenticed to the enigmatic and somewhat crazy Technomancer Friedrich BrassTuner, she participates in an experiment meant to tap a new rich source of energy. However something goes horribly wrong and a rip in the very fabric of reality opens in the workshop, sucking in her mentor and ejecting a dying white dragon. The dragon, after examining her, takes a gamble and entwines their souls, an act that causes the dragon, Barthurthalomalew Dresnarian Kratomanger Harrowhew Objuslorow, the 5th, aka Batty, to regress into a baby dragon, sealing much of his powers and memories in the process. This act also has profound effects on Guppy, her own magic is now crazily changed in ways no one, least of all her, understands. Guppy is suddenly plunged into a world of mystery, intrigue and politics, where everyone either wants to control, or eliminate her. Armed with little but her courage and unpredictable newfound magic how will she survive and protect herself and those she loves when everyone from techno radicals, magic purists, politicians and guttersnipes are out to get her. And those may be the least of her problems if Batty's fragmented memories are any indicator.
