Advertisement
The two of them walk in the street while chatting, talking about their background.
"Sven, why do you want to join the military? I mean, there's a plenty way to make money other than throwing your life on the line" "It's been my dream that I want to fight someone who stronger.For my entire life, I dedicate to training and studying about the skill of weapon, strategies, and more," "so you're saying that you are the stronger one, eh?" said Alan while punching Sven's arm "I'm not said so. what I mean is.. uh, I want to defeat the Demon Lord. yeah, that's it" "defeat the demon lord huh. I can say that's kinda impossible dream of yours. You know that we never win a single battle with demon lord's army, do you?" "That is why I'm joining the military, to change the history!" said Sven with enthusiastic. "hahaha, I see you trust your strength with confidence. " "enough with my reason, what's yours?" ask Sven "mine?? well, I'm looking for my brother" "what's have to do with you joining the military anyway??" Alan silent himself makes Sven wondering. "don't tell anyone about this story," said Alan. "I barely know anyone in this town, so don't worry" reply Sven "I'm from an elite noble family, so some of my family members have a worthy talent to brag about it.For example, my father is a high general with a high skill of war. my big brother and sister is an exceptional magician in rank general. My twin is a prodigy if comes to using a sword. They all elite members, except my mother and my little brother. They were born with no talent" "Wait... you have a twin?? didn't know about that" "that's your first question?? well yeah, I have twins, the opposite gender. We may twins, but we not close. I personally don't hate her. oh, by the way, she may apply for the recruit this month so you may encounter her" "why now? didn't she a prodigy and why you have already a knight rank and she doesn't?" "I join the recruit since ten years old, Back then the military found out about my talent thanks to my big brother. As for my twin, she not interested until now" "I see, so what happens then?" "It's all started when my little brother was born, he name is Arwin. He was born with no talents, slow learner.. so my father despises it. Sometimes, when I came home, the bruise and scratch were seen on his body, all because of my father, brother and sister are doing. My mother also had it, since she's the one who protects him. I hate them so I try to fight them, but it backfired, in the end, I gain nothing but total defeat and hurt." "one day, when I'm in 13 years old and he 8 years old, I get news that Arwin was kidnapped by mountain bandits. I rushed toward to my father's workplace and tell what happens when hopping for him to save Arwin, and then he said- ***** "what's the point saving the scumbag, untalented and useless kid? I'm not interested" "He is my little brother! he is your own son!!" "I don't recall anything that useless 'thing' is my son, except you, you are my son," said him "WHY YOU-" "If you want so badly to save that kid, go on without me" "Fine, I don't need your help, old bastard!" "Ah, if you died, I will revenge for you so don't worry," he said that like pouring oil on the fire, make me really angry and I slammed the door. I already got information on where the mountain bandit's hideout and I are going alone without my group because I don't want them to get involved. When arriving, I asked them about where is my little brother, and instead of answering my question, they attack me with the numbers. I had difficulty to deal with them because they are not the ordinary bandit, they somehow wield the sacred treasure, it should be wielded by the high rank. I gained a heavy damage by it, both my arm was broken, and my leg is full of scratch with blood, my body is full of the bruise and slashing sword, and I breathe heavily. Then one of them that their called leader approach me and said. "If you looking for your little brother, I guess I'm sorry because we already sold him with demon tribe at a middle road earlier. You just a little bit late. Don't worry, we're not gonna slaving you. we will to sen-" "YOU FUCKERS, IM GONNA KILL ALL OF YOU, BASTARD, YOU HEAR ME!!" "sigh...I guess I don't have any choice then, Mens, kill him~" Then suddenly, one by one pirate fall with their head split from its body until all of them dead. I open my eyes, and it was my twin come to rescue me. "Why you here?" "Saving your ass, I think," said her "you usually don't meddle with other people business, so why now? "Nothing, just want to take a walk" "Don't joke with me!" I try to get up, but my strength was gone due to blood loss. but despite that, I still want to save him "Where are you going?" asked her "saving my family, of course, you all monster don't know anything about the meaning of family. so back off" "forget about it, you already beat up, you do not even have strength to stand up and now you're saying to save him.. that impossible, I think" "shut up, go away" "with your current state, you're never catch up them, unless it's me who you're talking" I stopped, then I begging her to save him, but it did not interest her "why should I?? he's your little brother, right?You already said that we, the monster don't understand the meaning of family.. so that's that, In the first place, I don't have any obligate to save him," "no... please. please save him, please save h-" I lost consciousness because of blood loss when I woke up, I've already in my bed, and my twin was beside me, sitting while reading a book "Oh, you're already wake up, good evening" "what happen?" "after I send you back home, I try to find them until I arrive at the front land of the demon tribe. I was too late, I think" I cried, mourn with loud," if you prioritize to save him first before me, you could save him, you could!" said me while grabbing her shirt "If I don't save you, you will die. besides, I already help you by troubling to save you and find your little brother, this is already out of my character, I think" said her while pushing me back and going toward the door to leave me. I continue to cry. "If you have time to cry, why don't you to train more on your skill. Train more and more until you raise your rank or no one can't defeat you because it will save my time for not always saving your ass" "You don't have to say it, I already know" "But even if you training for years, you'll never beat me and that's the fact which already carved in stone of fate. that said, who knows that Arwin might be alive in there so,.." "so?" "please... train hard to save him... I think" said her ***** "sounded nice of your twin," said Sven "Yeah, well.. how should I say, she neither from my family side nor me, the neutral" "I see" "so that's why I want to join the military, to gain fame, power, and information. Fame for my leadership, power for sacred weapon, and information for my revenge" "how should I say, good luck with it," said Sven "that's impossible, because once a child of human enters the demon's territory, they never been alive, except-" "okay, that my background story. so now you will tell me your story" said Alan "what? my story?? haven't I told you already??" "That was why you want to become a soldier, I ask for your background, so tell me" "Eh... I don't feel like to tell you" "don't be like that, come on man" "Err, alright then... Ahem, I'm was just a farmer with my family" "Uhuh, and then??" his eyes sparkling as he hearing with enthusiasm "We're living a happy life, the end, huh.. what a great story of my life," said Sven "what's this story of yours, where's the climax??!" asked Alan "Are you saying, that everyone in their life must have a tragic story like main characters in the storybook?? like hell it has you, dummy. " "everyone doesn't??" "No!!, everyone doesn't!"

Lost In Translation
If you're one to travel the roads, you may have heard of me. You may have heard my Names in the stories, the songs, and the whispers of the road. Perhaps you've even seen me during my travels, speaking to a bird of blue light, or on a city street, performing small acts for coin and repute. Or perhaps you may know me as the Skystrider, who walked with the wind. Or the Voiceless, a man of song without speech. You may know me as the Tutor, who taught the Lion of Summer how to fight, or the Traveler, who has walked all the roads of the earth. I am all of these things. And people have branded me a myth. But people don't understand what a myth is. They haven't heard the songs lost to our tongues, nor have they seen the things I've seen. They haven't gone to the places I've gone. My feet have walked the plains, the seas, and the clouds. I have spoken languages unspoken; tongues lost to time. I have sung to the earth, held the moon in my arms, and walked the roads that your heroes hesitate to even mention. I have outwitted Demons. I have danced with the Fae. My songs have been heard by lords of wind and ash, and my steps have echoed in the bellies of gargantuan beasts the likes of which you have never seen. These are what real myths are. And me? I'm no legend. I'm just the bard stupid enough to poke the real ones with a stick. Discord link here. [Disclaimer: Book 1 of this story will likely be published in KU by around the start of 2022, so please keep that in mind. Book 2 and onwards will continue here until they are published as well.]

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.
