《The Journey's of an uninterested person》Chapter 4
Advertisement
As the scholar entered the room, he noticed that the atmosphere within the room was lighter. The plants were more vibrant, more joyful. As if, children who were in the present of their parents. There was life in this room.
Once again, a spark of interest lit in the eyes of Zeil. To discover the knowledge of this village would be interesting.
As zeil was contemplating his knew found curiosity, a female elf cloaked in an aura of majesty strode slowly towards zeil stopping 5 feet away from zeil.
The room shimmered and Zeil was surrounded by female elven all with spears pointing towards Zeil
The elf 5 feet away from zeil spoke, her voice rhythmic and harmonic in tone
“tell me Scholar, you,a stranger from a different land wish to learn our knowledge. And yet you act as though we are beneath you. I have seen what the elven have said about you. A walking corpse they call you. Tell me why I, the eldest should grant you the knowledge of my village, my kin from the disrespect we see from you”
Zeil spoke calmly “I have seen much in my lifetime, Good and Evil. From this I have lost interest in the common, for though you think the elven are worthy of my respect, Not a soul on this world has earned my respect. Irrespective of your inclination I do not care if you are slighted, my soul passion is Knowledge. When the first elven I met saw me they drew arms at me. When the second elven I met guided me he threatened me. when the last elven I saw spoke to me she looked down on me. For that you have lost whatever courtesy I had for you and your kin. However, you have something I’m interested in therefore my presence remains. Let me learn the crafts of your kin and in turn I will teach you skills that will supplement your lifestyles.”

The female elven around Zeil bristled with anger at seeing how Zeil disregarded the elder
The elder spoke “tell me Scholar, from your tone you seem detached from life. I wonder what would happen If your life truly became under peril”
“Schilla” she called
The female elven surrounding Zeil vanished and in place a wolf remained. It barred its fangs at Zeil and moved towards Zeil slowly as if knowing its prey wouldn’t run. Once in front of Zeil the wolf opened it’s mouth and bit down on Zeil.
Zeil moved slightly and the wolf missed its bite. Zeil talked calmly as if the wolf was non-existent “your acts are uninteresting, tell your pet to stand down elder or it shall lose its greatest gift”
The elder laughed. Her laughter like raindrops falling from a leaf at the dawn of the morn
Zeil spoke “ very well”
Then Zeil moved his hand very slowly. It began to split into after shadows. He pointed his right index finger at the wolf.
The wolf seeing the finger attacked once more.
Suddenly the wolf froze, paralyzed and in pain. It let out a loose howl full of anguish. Though not as smart as an elven the wolf knew it lost something important.it began to sniffle and curl up into a ball.
The elder seeing this froze, what become of her laughter became a cold anger
“what have you done”
Zeil spoke “ I have taken her ability to birth and know that because of you, her lineage will end here”
The elder spoke In tranquil rage “return it”
Zeil spoke “I refuse”
Suddenly the atmosphere became darker, the plants lost their vibrant colours. And the children became beasts
The elder spoke “you will return what was taken from her, or death will be the last of your ordeals”
Zeil sighed “the stupidity of man, even in elven exists”
Zeil turned around and began to walk
The elder spoke “Catch him”
But Zeil was gone

The Cage
Mighty abominations and their more powerful gods dance between the galaxies in eternal migration, exploring, experimenting and playing. They leave destruction in their wake, heedless of the suffering of the sapients they slaughter, alter or drive to extinction as they toy with entire star systems for passing amusement. These monsters are called mankind. They are finally betrayed and defeated, but they cannot be killed. They are diminished and stripped of all memory of what they were, locked in a bottle reality on a false world called Earth. For thousands of years, mingled shards of their Broken Gods continue to chance across the cage that holds the species of their birth. The shards merge with suitable hosts to create empowered archetypes who awaken to supernatural Gifts and fractured dreams of a lost history. The greatest among them are magnificent heroes and villains: The Vigilante. The Mastermind. The Assassin. The Polymath. This is the story of their inferiors: The Beggar. The Homewrecker. The Gambler. The Henchman. The Miser. The Monster. Together, they will attempt to save the world, free humankind and escape the Cage. This will probably end really badly. *Cover art taken from internet source of free-use, uncopyrighted photos and images.

My Failed Reincarnation as a Demon’s Prisoner
When Kayn opened his eyes in the empty void, he was met with a familiar voice and the knowledge that he was neither dead nor alive and about to be reincarnated. What he didn't expect was to reappear in the world of the living and immediately get captured by a clan of demons, now living as their prisoner. After a lucky encounter, Kayn stumbles upon a room that could possibly give him what he needs to free himself from their captivity. But, as he soon finds out, escaping from the demon queen herself isn't the easiest of tasks... **DISCLAIMER**This story attempts to be quite comedic (I don't know if I'm doing a great job at it) and will be more comedy heavy at the start than later on. As the situations Kayn finds himself in become more grave, the story will become serious and less comedy oriented. There will always be comedy throughout, but at some point I do plan on shifting the focus. I'd love to hear everyones opinion on whether the comedy should be kept in full, or dialed back a little so the plot can take centre stage more often. Happy reading!
