《Bone Sage》Chapter 11: Henry the vice commander and his origin
Advertisement
Twelve years ago in a certain small village
A small kid was ( around eight ) was running toward his mother with a smile on his face. He was hiding something behind his back and when he got in front of her he showed a small pouch of money.
"Hey mom look. Dad brought me to the city and I managed to earn this much money."
The mother stopped the work she was doing in the kitchen and pat the head of his son.
"That is great honey. Do you know where you will spend it on?" she said with her gentle voice. It seemed like the kid was waiting for her to ask that question as his eyes started sparkling.
"I am going to collect a lot of money and buy you the best gift ever!" The kid said ,his voice full of excitement.
"Oh my. You don't have to go that far Henry. Mommy will be happy as long as you and your sister are happy"
Then someone opened door and shouted
"Honey I'm home"
"Welcome back darling" The woman shouted back as she started to quickly prepare the table for dinner. Henry helped his mother prepare the dinner and went to call his sister. After they all got on the table they began to eat. Upon finishing the dinner Henry went to sleep so he can be ready for the next day.
The next day arrived and he headed in the forest to pick mushrooms and different medical plants in order to sell them on the market while his father was cutting down trees. Upon collecting two full baskets of many berries, plants and mushrooms he went on a one hour walk to the city to sell them. The city he was going to was Protos and he already had a few pharmacists who would happily buy the ingredients from him. He sold off all the things he managed to collect and after that he went to work.

Since Henry was a kid he could not do big jobs and instead was hired by local people to do small and easy jobs such as cleaning or delivery. He worked hard all day and did not earn a lot of money but he was happy with the money he got. After he was ready to go home he decided to buy a brooch for his mother with all the money he collected so he went to the accessory shop. After buying a cheap brooch that resembled his mothers eyes he was ready to go back home and surprise her.
Once he was getting closer to the village he lived in he suddenly started seeing a large amount of smoke appearing in the direction where he was headed. As soon as he realized something happened inside the village he immediately ran as fast as he can to see the most horrific sight of his life. Most of the houses were completely destroyed while the ones that were something more than rubble were in flames. He rushed towards his house and as he was getting closer he saw a lot of mutilated bodies along with some monsters. It seems as if the monsters suddenly went berserk and attacked the village but villagers fought back to some extent. Upon arriving in front of his house what he witnessed was so horrible his tears started going without a sign of calming down. The mother he loved so much along with his father were killed and their bodies were in pieces.
He was about to just fall on the floor and cry until he dies but he heard the cries of his sister. The moment he heard t hem he rushed toward the rubble that was once a home shared by his family and managed to dig up his sister, completely helpless , who started crying tears of joy once she saw her big brother. He picked her up and hugged her with all his might. Once he got her on his back , ready to bring her to the city and find a doctor willing to treat her with little money he had left, he noticed a weird figure.

If was a pale, skinny and long humanoid being with pointy ears and pitch black hair. The being was heading towards the forest while holding something in his hand. Henry knew it the moment he saw him that that man , or whatever he is, is the one who did all of this. He is the one who killed his mother and father. He was the one who destroyed the village. He was the one at fault for everything but he was weak and did not have time to do anything about it. Since he did not wish to keep his little sister waiting he went towards the city and on his way here he met the knight squad. They asked the kids what happened and brought them somewhere safe for the time.
Since there was no survivors but those two kids and they did not want them to end on the streets Henry was appointed as a knight in training. As years passes Henrys talent for swordsmanship shone brightly because of all the effort he put in and his younger sister ,not wanting to be a burden to his brother, decided to study hard and be as much of help for her older brother as she can.
Many years later Henry climbed up to the position of vice commander while his younger sister was enrolled in one of the most famous elite schools aboard. Henry also spent a lot of money and research to find out about the person who killed his village but there was only a small amount of clues. From what he gathered it seems as if he is some kind of elf and the member of Council of Torment but even the intel he got was not confirmed so he kept searching.
One night a member of Council of Torment attacked the city and when he arrived a young man named Melton already killed him. He decided to get some information about it and after thinking about it he decided to join them for the sake of his revenge.

Chronicles of Xod (returning from hiatus)
After a long recovery over a chronic motion sickness issue, I feel I'm ready to return to writing this book. It might be slow at first, but I'm hoping to pick up where I left off. I apologize again for the long hiatus. The pages following are a true account. An account of how I, Josh--a teenage nerd from modern suburbia--ended up in a strange world filled with fantastic magic, bizarre creatures, and terrifying dungeons. Despite the troped-up fantasy feel of the world, this is hardly an ordinary tale. For one, don’t expect a happy ending. With the trials I’ve been through, the horrors I’ve seen and the atrocities I’ve committed, believe me when I tell you, this is not a happy tale filled with friendly rainbow bears or teenage flying unicorns. It’s more likely you’ll finish this book mentally scarred as I will not spare the details of my unfortunate adventures. With the help of my trusted companion Gui, I gain an insight that no one else in the world has. This knowledge allows me to exploit and, for lack of a better term, metagame the system which gave me a clear advantage over its residents. “With great power...,” someone might begin to quote to me. In my defense, I think maybe even you, reader, might have acted similarly with how this reality changed my view of good and evil. This story will be updated regularly on Wednesdays around 6 PM. There will only be about 1000 words per update. The focus is to finish the story before doing any major changes or editing. Please read as if this is a work in progress, not a finished product. Feel free to let me know if you see any error, whether glaring or minor. If you help me out, I'll be sure to add you to a thank you list at the front of the book when it is published. Chronicles of Xod is a first-person fantasy novel that follows the adventures of a young man from Earth. Through unknown circumstances, he finds himself in a fantasy world where life is not all wonders and happy endings. The story takes common fantasy concepts from my favorite video games, books and movies and gives them an adult edge. It also introduces some taboo concepts often glossed over by stories written for broad audiences. The style is meant to be immersive and heavily detailed. The short novel will be written in a way that attempts to bring a sense of realism to an unrealistic genre. Where there are realistic consequences and dangers in a world populated with violent monsters, cruel demons, bloodthirsty undead, and immoral bandits. In this fantasy world, the inhabitants are essentially gender blind as far as sexuality is concerned. There is also more variation amongst male and female physiology. This isn't meant to be any kind of promotion or demotion of social behavior in reality. Just a concept I thought would be an interesting idea to have in a fantasy setting. I highly discourage anyone from reading this material if you are personally concerned with being offended or traumatized. Both violent and sexual content will be graphically detailed. All characters involved in sexual scenes are mature and of the age of consent(18+).

Children of The Sky: Heartcore
In the realm of Yggdrasil, there exist nine worlds. Each and every world has unique stories to tell, but there was one that stood out--The Floating World of Speir. In the land of Speir, the impossible does not exist; this world has given birth to thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of tales, fables, and legends. The fight for the fate of the world is a common occurrence and the neverending stories of the people which reside in it were all, by itself, always unique and interesting. Now, after many aeons have passed, the world has changed. Not only the power of magic could shape reality, technology also has the ability to change the world with just a thought. And from the world where futuristic technology meets magic, I have chosen to tell you a story, a story picked from countless others. This is the story of a boy who recently entered the prestigious, and the most powerful academy in all of the nine worlds--Yggdrasil Academy, to fufill his dream. What is his dream, you might ask. Well, allow me to show you the life of Reynard Foxtale, one of The Children of The Sky. *Warning. For those who don't like lengthy explanations or long talks, this might not suit your taste. However, the setting of my story does not adhere to most of the main stream fantasy/sci-fi settings. So, you might find my ideas unique or a little too weird and complicated or both. Whatever opinions you might have, I truly thank all of you who are willing to spend your time to read my story. *The cover (which is a picture I do not own) is not in any way an accurate depiction of the world in the story. P/S I will post this story on FictionPress as well. P/P/S I'm relatively new to this website, so if I made any obvious (to regulars) mistakes, please tell me. P/P/P/S Will update every two weeks. *Important: In Hiatus for now. **13/7/2017 Update. Check chapter nine (and maybe ten) post-chapter note.
