《Orion》26
Advertisement
The beauty and fierce spirit which flowed in Saidra as she made her way through Sedona gracefully, made the people bow to her, acknowledging the presence of their ruler.
It was another bustling day in the tribe, female warriors seen dressed in animal skin, which protected their bosoms and lower clothing which was tied around their waist. Their arms were accessorized with animal bones worn as a bracelet, and their head holding a tribal harness. A means of telling strangers that they came from the tribe and they were warriors in particular.
The warriors swung from tree to tree, landing firmly on the ground, while training at the command of the Sedonian lead-warrior who was stood in front of them.
"Bellona" Saidra called softly.
Her eyes moved around the tribe, taking in all activities, yet, resting her attention on Bellona who was stood right next to her.
"You've got a huge part to play in this" She uttered.
"Never depart from him, for he needs you to complete the quest"
Bellona remained silent listening to the Queen as she spoke.
They were both taking a stroll around Sedona, conversing, while Saidra showed her around the tribe.
"It's hard to believe all of this is happening" Bellona responded immediately.
"I know. I understand how you feel" Saidra said to her.
"I've gone through this, the turmoil, the pain, until responsibilities came rushing to me, pestering for me to grab it and do what's right. I never wanted to take up this crown. I was chosen to"
"Just as you have"
"Your gift is beautiful, Bellona"
Saidra turned to her fully, halting in her tracks, and placing both her hands on the side of her face.
"Your visions are a gift to life. Do not be scared of it" She uttered.
"But why can't they be interpreted?. Why are they meaningless?" Bellona asked, her voice filled with worry.

"They're not."
"For every single one of 'em, holds a meaning" Saidra responded.
"With time, you'll realize how important they are. And how blessed you are to hold such"
Her gaze fell on Orion, Elpida, Aiden and Pavlos who were waiting at the other side of the tribe, prepared to leave, as their reason for Visit to Sedona was complete.
"They wait for you. It's time to go" Saidra uttered to Bellona.
She nodded in response, a sigh escaping her lips as she slowly made her way to them, with Saidra following right behind.
"Orion" The queen called.
"Before you leave, I've got something to offer" She said to him.
Some female warriors suddenly approached with horses, holding them by the reins and leading them towards Queen Saidra.
"Zephyra spoke to me about your journey, and no better way than to be a part of it than handing something to you"
"These are our finest trained horses, and you can now consider them yours"
"They'll save you much stress, and hasten your journey"
"Please accept it as a compliment from me"
A white horse was presented to Orion, by Queen Saidra herself. She stepped forward, giving the reins to Orion, and then blessing him in a strange language. The horse had beauty so ethereal, filled with purity.
"His name's Zulther" She uttered to him, while stroking the long mane of the horse.
"He's been commanded to serve you, and so it shall" She added.
"It's beautiful" Orion muttered to himself, stepping forward to have a feel of the horse.
At the sudden touch of Orion fingers brushing its body softly, the horse neighed and clomped it hooves.
"It adores you, Orion" Saidra said to him with a smile on her face.
Compassion rested in her eyes as she stared at them all. A heart filled with light and comfort, rested in her.

Bringing the evil down and ensuring peace was all she yearned for hence, the little things she could afford to do, she had to do it.
"Thank you" Elpida uttered, staring on at Saidra
"For everything" She added.
A smile appeared on the face of the queen immediately, staring back at Elpida who showed much gratitude.
"Sima, Sonora" Saidra called.
"Do not return till your quest is complete" She uttered.
Her hands pushed forward touching their foreheads with her index finger and then laying Blessings on them.
"You must escort them all past Sedona, and far outside Damerel, to the pathway which leads to the Wispy meadows"
"Once they get there, and only when they get there, must you return home"
They both nodded at her command, bowing before her and then turning away.
"Journey well"
She whispered, watching as the horses rode away, the dust they trotted with on the path, filling the air.

Mana Soul
Like many others across the multiverse, Markus was chosen as this world's hero to fight against the steadily approaching cataclysm. Only, something went horribly wrong. Left with only a handful of memories, Markus has spent years clawing his way up from poverty and officially registered as an adventurer to try and make his fortune. Unfortunately, Artificers are the least combat-capable class of the four classes, and Markus has no connections to join an established party. With the fate of countless worlds hanging in the balance, a chance meeting will determine the course of a war nearly as old as reality itself. Warning: Markus has trauma induced amnesia and will occasionally 'act out of character' or make 'poorly thought out' decisions. These events are rather obvously telegraphed abd represent conflicts between his current personality and the one repressed alongside his trauma. Just something to bear in mind.The story will bounce predominantly back and forth between the primary protagonists every couple of chapters. The time stream is linear, so events are not revisted/rehashed/retold through the narrative format. Characters may comment on something that has occurred, but that's different. Just giving a heads up.Chapters will be around 7-9k and updated 1/week on the same schedule as my other story Ogre Tyrant over the weekend.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Quantum Rip: Welcome to Ethos
A special day has come, a day that Earth has awaited for oh so long. The day where they are finally going to try and run the reactor. This had been long-awaited and everyone dropped off their kids with a hint of dread. Hoping that nothing would go wrong, we know it did. Since else there would not be a story. I won't go into too much detail, but only simply explain what happened. Due to some malfunctioning and incorrect assumptions, the reactor overproduced energy. Something which should have been impossible according to all the known knowledge of a really advanced Earth. I mean, they have even started colonizing planets. Have done countless simulations and even built test stations in space. Yet now, something had gone when they did the same on earth. Bizarre, right? This malfunctioning and imploding of the reactor caused a massive explosion due to the instability of space itself. This is also what allowed the story to exist, as our main characters were all transported. The method is not known, nor why they survived. We can say it is for the story, for now... They all now find themselves on Ethos, eating a mouthful of dirt as they struggled for breath. Some find their situation horrible, others find it relaxing and peaceful. Some see death, others see life. Despair and hope, madness and sanity on an edge. What has fate given you? Welcome to Ethos, a planet of magic.Welcome to Ethos, a planet orbiting an exotic star.Ethos wishes you luck in surviving. Maybe, just maybe... You can someday go back, or not. -----------------Release rate: 3 chapters(1200-1400 words) a week.
