《Aris Cretu》Chapter 70: Brace for Impact
Advertisement
Aris Cretu nodded at the guard who was trying to get his attention, then casually ambled over to chat with him. "What news?"
"The Queen and the princesses will be making an appearance at the Fire Dance. Lord Wavethunder is making the arrangements for them to stay at the Convent with Little Bird. They will be arriving tomorrow. Assuming, that is, you have no objections Lord Trebor?"
Aris nodded casually, "none whatsoever. If there is anything Lord Wavethunder or Her Majesty needs that I can provide in this, it is theirs. Within reason, of course!"
The guarded nodded, bowed, and vanished into the crowd of people finishing the preparations for the fair.
Aris stretched, and headed off to his next appointment; something about ensuring that there were enough drummers for the dance...
Aflia Cencin blinked away the after effects of the teleportation, then slowly raised her hands, "Ilelahne, where exactly did you teleport us...?"
Ilelahne shrugged and eyed at the guard, "the only safe teleportation circle in Trebor. I didn't know it was reserved or anything."
"But where did you teleport us?"
"Guest quarters of a convent, I think. Quite secure ones too."
The tromp of boots on wooden flooring heralded the arrival of more guards
Aflia rolled her eyes, "I can guess who is in residence then, if you'd like. Her Majesty, Queen Shallahai of Althiem, with guests. Too many royal guards for just a personal visit."
A young elf poked her head out of a doorway, "miss Cencin, when did you grow wings? Can I grow them too?"
The guards relaxed slightly when one of the 'intruders' was identified and vouched for. An officer stepped forward with polite questions, and the rest of Aflia's afternoon vanished into bureaucratic red tape.

Tavern Cat
Dying and being reborn in a fantasy world as a hero destined to kill the Demon King to prevent a great war is some people's greatest dream. Others, however, may prefer to sit around, relax, take a few naps, and ignore the impending doom. And hey, if such a 'hero' gets reborn as a cat, what's gonna stop them from doing all that? Finding a warm home filled with food, gossip, and comfort sounds a whole lot easier than putting in the work to stop a war. Updating weekly, allegedly. Constructive criticism is appreciated as this is my first story!

What might seem cruel will sometimes be the only way that the orphans may survive. Dante is such a child. His thirteenth year is upon him and he must now leave the orphanage to become a student of the Academy, where the skills of an Adventurer are taught. Dante, his class and all others in their thirteenth year, will be entering a new life. From their new affinities of magic to the political power plays of the upper tier citizens, will Dante and his friends even survive before they make it to the dungeons?
