《Dream Theater》52
Advertisement
With time as with all things, Pxan optimized his routine.
In the mornings when he rose he prepared a small breakfast and eat it in five minutes. Afterwards, he petted the dog a little and worked on his projects. After this, he was off to work in the library.
When the lights became dimmer and the work was done he returned to his house to be greeted by his dog. He had a small dinner and was off to work on his projects again. In between breaks, when he couldn’t work anymore he read. Inquisitors had unlimited access to the book catalogue and so in a few months time, Pxan had read more than in his entire life. The styles and plots were so different and vibrant compared to the modern censored books that young boys read in school.
At work everything was monotonous. Since the incident he wasn’t assigned violent tasks, he was happy about this but he also knew that it wouldn’t last forever. One day or the other Lhyps or Ides would call him, or more simply, send him a note with some violent task. This was life after all. To be sincere now he didn’t felt much different from when he was working in the police force. Except that now he had more freedom and time of course.
…
SOMEWHERE IN THE LOW QUARTERS NEAR A RIVER
The building looked like a small shelter made of stone and clay. If it was not for the two bodyguards at the entrance Pxan would have never guessed what sort of activity they did in there. The inquisition was weird, some law they enforce with all might and other act as if they never even existed. He showed a small card to the bodyguards and he was free to enter. Inside two man in their middle age and full of scars were fighting on a ring with axes while people around drunk and talked.

A man in a white suit waved his hand at him, there was a chair next to him. He sat and Pxan waited for a conversation opener, a few lines. Yet nothing came out of the white suite man so he was forced to speak first.

Pxan would have to search from top to bottom that list and see which cultists meted the requirement >
The white suit man finally turned and looked at Pxan >
“What?!?” Pxan thought to himself, realizing that the man knew a lot more than him.
> saying this he left the club and begun walking on the shores of the river, trying to figure out a way to obtain those informations. Rene for how friendly he was would never say something so important to him. Ides and Lhyps were out of question. He already checked the archives and found nothing. If he wanted to know those things he had to go there and check them himself.

Unliving
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon, November 2021] For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in. The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless. Yet fate had a different path in store for her. For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being. Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death. She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath. What will fate deal her next? Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday. --------------------------------------- Expect: -Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages -World building -Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures -Occasional action Do not expect: -Much in terms of romance -Politics, barring passing views and mentions -A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated. And thank you for reading. --------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This story is my original work and only posted on the Royal Road website.
