"Eshaal I missed you so much." Lara hugged Eshaal.
"I missed you too." Eshaal said hugging her back.
"Have a seat Eshaal." Edd said.
"Yes." Eshaal sat and gestured Ash to sit beside her.
"How are you Eshaal?" Jenna asked Eshaal.
"I am fine. How are you?"
"I am fine too."
"Who is he?" Lara asked looking at Ash.
"He is... " Even though Eshaal was expecting this question, she still stammered.
"I am Ash. Her boyfriend." Ash said calmly.
"Really?" Lara was surprised. Not only Lara, everyone had a surprised expression on their faces.
"Yes." Eshaal forced a smile on her face.
"Thats good. Now we don't have to worry about you being alone." John said.
"That's why you wanted to meet us." Edd asked Eshaal.
"Yes, I wanted you all to meet Ash." Eshaal said.
"Eshaal talk about you all alot." Ash said.
"We miss Eshaal too." Edd said.
"Eshaal told me you really helped her back then with her parents death.Thank you for taking care of Esha." Ash said to John.
"You don't have to thank me. Marvin was like a brother to me and I always think of Eshaal as my own daughter."
"Why don't we order something first? " Eshaal said.
"Yeah, I am hungry." Lara picked up the menu card.
"Do you have a spiritual device?" Edd asked Ash after everyone placed their orders.
"Yes." Ash said.
Seeing Ash did not brag about his dagger, Eshaal was a little surprised. " Ash is just like you and Lara. Even though his parents are not gifted he and his both sisters are gifted." Eshaal said to Edd.
"What type of Spiritual device do you own?" Ash asked Edd.

"I have a bow and arrow." Edd answered.
"Interesting." Ash said.
"Lara's spiritual device is even more interesting. She own a bag of candies and these candies have healing abilities." Eshaal said to Ash.
"That's amazing." Ash said.
"Thank you." Lara smiled.
Waiting brought the food and they stopped talking for a while.
"Why did you suddenly decided to close the case? I thought you were going to meet Mr Graham." John asked Eshaal after waiter was gone.
"He is already retired so he can't help her solve this case." Ash answered instead of Eshaal.
"You know Mr Graham?" John asked.
"Yes. He is my Father."
"So your Father adviced Eshaal to close this case?" This time John directly asked Ash.
"Yes." Ash said with ease.
Eshaal did not understand what Ash was trying to do but seeing John didn't say anything else about this subject she asked John. " You think I did the right thing? "
"Mr Graham is a professional and definitely knows better than me. I don't think he can give wrong advice." John said.
"Yeah." Eshaal said.
"You look even more skinny Eshaal." Edd said to Eshaal.
"Really?"
"Yes. You should eat more properly."
"Fine." Eshaal smiled.
Later Ash insisted on paying bill saying since it was Eshaal who invited them, so they should be the one paying the bill.
"You did not have to pay the bill. I will pay you back once we get home." Ehsaal said to Ash on their way back to home.
"That's fine. You should save your money for later."Ash said.
"Why should I save my money?"
"Aren't you going to pay me when I solve this case? And let me tell you, I am not cheap." Ash said.
"Fine." Eshaal sighed.
"Have your broke into someone's house before?" Ash asked Eshaal with a mysterious look on his face.
"No."
"Wanna try?" Ash grinned.

Mistbound: Eternity
The world is said to be formed out of duality of man. Good and evil, right and wrong, light and dark. And with duality, comes conflict. A meaningless clash of ideals results in pointless wars. Azlan is wanderer who doesn't falls in either category. Tired and done with the redundant world, he lives his secluded life, hunting monstrosites for coin in the crumbling province of Mountaliya, situated in the land of Forsa. The premise follows Azlan as he explores the province, experiencing the culture and its people as they try to stand unshaken amidst a cold and unforgiving world. The story is a dark fantasy that is a balance of action and world building but most importantly, it follows the people going about their daily lives. The world has entered a state of stasis, there are no high stakes, no glory to be had, only a decaying realm of ice remains. Everyone awaits for Heaven's descent, an event prophesied to bring the world out of stasis, by granting the champion of the event a wish. Heaven Shall Descend. I wanted to write a high fantasy story that doesn't focuses too much on Magic and Swordfights, but rather interactions between people, a bit of politics and ideals. This is my first attempt at writing something this huge, please let me know if you see mistakes or any problems in general, so I can learn from them. (The cover picture is from the year 1818, "Wanderer Above the Mist" by Caspar David Friedrich). I also write Short stories set in the same shared universe. You can read them here: Dark Fantasy Short Stories.
