《Those Feared By The Gods》Chapter 1: Prologue
Advertisement
Hammering of anvils resounds in our mountain home~
Size of a hobbit, strength of a manticore~
Deep in the darkness, striking until we break our bones~
We fight, feast and drink our Mead, oh bless the mountain king!~
--------
Walking in a mountain range, a group of small postured humanoids are on a mission to scout.
“Hey, Kandar, how is the wife?” Asks one of them to the other.
“She's the same old grumpy woman I married 11 years ago” replies the humanoid called Kandar.
Whahahahahahahaha!
Loud laughter comes from the group.
“Boss, when are you going to marry? If you wait too long, you'll be too old for anyone to want you.” Asks Kandar
“You know I hate being called Boss. Just call me Batner like everyone else. And I just haven't found the girl of my dreams yet.” Replies the “Boss” Batner
The cheerful squad continues talking and laughing while continuing their mission
-------
“Wheeeeh~” “wheeeeh~”
Somewhere deep in the mountain range, the crying of a child is heard.
“Wheeeeh~” “wheeeeh~”
“Shhhh, quiet! I hear something!” Whispers Batner while holding his hand up
The loud squad instantly quiets down, as if they were professionals
-Absolute Silence-
For a moment, nothing but the wind and some small animals are heard. Even the breathing of the squad is completely masked. But a moment later…
“Wraaaaaaaahgh!”
A loud cry of a beast is heard!
“Split up, Dahtom formation[1]” whispers Batner
The squad nods, silently yet swiftly splitting into 3 groups
The squad looks at Batner, and when he gives a nod, all rush forwards.
Two groups each swiftly sneak over the left and right flank, while the third rushes not quietly at all straight to the objective.
After a small while, they arrive at a clearing of the mountain forest, where a beast is circling something
“Mhph, a Gradfir[2], just as I thought” says Batner
“Chargeeeeeeeeee!” The warcry of the fierce mountain warriors resounds!
[1]a formation where two “arms” “dig” into the enemy from the sides while the “blind head” rushes in
[2]A bestiary is being made while the story goes on. I will post a link with the bestiary once more beasts become known in the story

Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.
