《How I Became A Jarl》7. Savior
Advertisement
There was only one thing left to do for today! Find a place to sleep over the night and something for dinner. Luckily we found an inn. We were the only people with armor on us so all eyes were on us again.
Finally, I ate something better than berries or rabbit. A stew… potatoes! And beer! I didn’t drink it for a long time! Almost heaven. Well… Tae is a softie but he can drink so much and doesn’t get drunk… I’m amazed.
I got drunk a little but I was able to stand. I only waited for Tae because he needed to go to the toilet. I was going to just sit here but then someone with armor came into the inn. He was muscular and tall. He treated the waitress like trash. When he was going too far I stood up and walked toward him.
“Could you maybe let her go?” I said as I watched the girl wanting to get free from his grasp.
“And what are you gonna do? You little sh**?”
“Glad you asked!” I said with my purest smile.
I took the metal cup raised in and smacked this guy's head with it. Then I pushed him. He fell to the ground with the chair. Before he stood up I struck the floor with my ax to scare him off. This new world is awesome! One of my childish dreams was accomplished! Saving a woman in need.
I thought that would be enough but then to my surprise, I got stuck in the back by that guy. Of course, a meathead like him wouldn’t slip off something like that… He also kicked me away and I went flying into the wall. Before he punched my face I dodged it and started running.

It wasn’t looking good already but he took my ax! He tried to attack me while I was on the table but luckily I dodged his attacks. I kicked his face but he didn’t even flinch! And my leg hurt like hell!
He grabbed me and threw me onto the table. He didn’t give me the time to rest and threw the ax. I was going to duck down but the same girl that I tried to help me was behind me. If I dodged the ax she might die. I already died once so whatever. I rolled back and knocked over the table and blocked the ax with it.
It went through the table a little bit and I got scratched. It wasn't a deep wound but it hurt. I was going to look where that guy was but he was already trying to pick the ax. Right when I thought that I’m going to die, Tae smacked this guy’s head with the same cup but in the back.
“What the hell did you do?” Asked Tae.
And with my smart mind and being the best person in argumentation I said “He started it!”
While we were arguing the woman that I “saved” tried to say something but we both didn’t notice. Then someone with a weapon in their hands barged in yelling “What happened!” Probably a guard or something.
“Who is responsible for that?!” Asked guard.
Few people pointed at us. Maybe because we were standing by the guy who went berserk. The guard was going to arrest us or something like that… I don’t know how the police and the law work here… but the woman that I helped blocked him.
“He didn’t do anything wrong! This boy helped me…” She said… wait… boy?! I’m in my twenties!

“Explain…” Said the guard and the woman told him everything that happened there. He only took the guy on the floor. I don’t know what will happen to him but what do I care…
“Are you hurt?!” Said the woman as he literally jumped on me looking for wounds.
I was going to say I’m fine but she noticed my arm wound and she screamed into my ear “You’re wounded!” and again before I could say anything she ripped her skirt and bandaged my wound with it.
“Let me repay you for your help!” She said and with those words, my new life in the village came to be.

Void Breaker
Note: Sadly, this story is currently on hiatus :( Elizabeth Sayler had lost everything in the bombing of Reaver Stadium. Her career, her fame, her power — all of it vanished the moment she lost use of her legs. Now, she's beginning to lose hope of ever healing herself… until her world integrates into the Void. When the apocalypse comes in a flurry of System messages, everyone on earth is given a choice: give up what they value most in themselves, and acquire a path to their heart’s greatest desire. Most would hesitate, but for Liz? She has nothing to lose, and absolutely everything to gain. Armed with newfound powers in a world teeming with monsters, she’s determined to not only survive, but to somehow break the Void’s endless assault. * * * This is a small note about the portrayal of disability in this story. As much research as I do and as many people as I ask, I will in the end only be able to understand a small portion of paraplegia and similar disabilities. Therefore, if there is anything particularly disrespectful, please do not hesitate to contact me. I always intended to portray disability in a respectful way in this story, but please know that Liz as a character does not start out with a healthy view of disability. This is intentional, and a large part of her character development comes from this view changing as she learns. Disability is not something she simply "discards" at the beginning of the story, but an ongoing theme and a part of her journey.

Abandoned in the squalid room, Pxan was left hauntedly in the furthest corners of insanity that bubbled in his mind. No one would listen to his plight, denouncing him and claiming his mind was not right. Even though the world left him with nothing, turning their backs to him, he knew the books would never betray him in the same fashion. Faceless pages and books yet to be read ogled puppy eyes, ready to be penned by the madman. “Pxan! Pxan! Over here! To me!” Clamored the unpublished manuscripts. Pxan’s fingers quivered nervously, thoughts of failure flooded his mind. Wanting to surrender to the pressure. “No!” He cried. “I’ve had enough of writing.” Books with eyes all stared at him, begging for the tales to be written. Their pleaful eyes were all that Pxan needed to be moved to writing again. The man sighed and raised his pen again, stroking the first letters of inspiration that bore fruit from his mind.
