《Tales of Teleios》Hiatus Again! (>_<)"
Advertisement
Well, life is not getting better with all the responsibilities to make meals on table.
Totally getting too busy and as much as I dislike myself being in hiatus...
Just share some updates and some design art works so far:
Aethon
The alpha stallion that is well trained and specially selected to be on the battlefield. As in the story, he is not getting well with the herd and a bit snobbish.
Peggy
He was named Pegasus and was previously owned by Heracle. A very beautiful pearl white horse breed for just the look and beauty. Heracle kept him away from other horses to avoid injury and disease. Causing him to develop some anxiety since horse are social animal, they need companions! Pryne adopted him and re-named him Peggy, since Pegasus sounds too pretentious.
Black
A standard horse selected by Lord Vitellius, well trained for long journey. He was bought together with his brother Brown.
Brown
Black's younger brother which is more energetic and likes to groom the herd. Because of that he tend to annoy Aethon and got pecked by him.
So that's it for the character design... the horses might not have enough "screen time" but they are some important characters indeed. I hope to write more about them in future. But most of the time, their narrative are just imagination of Matea. And I do wish to clarify about her preference towards Black and Brown. It's not racism
oh gawd! some accused me of racism for writing about Black and Brown being her favourite because they are lower maintenance due to the colour of their coats. I will carefully rephrase that part in the story. Due to the background of Black and Brown, being brothers and grown up in a better environment, they groom mutually and behave better compared to Aethon and Peggy. Aethon was overly trained and aggressive, while Peggy was formerly tortured and suffer with anxiety. Black and Brown played an important role to led the two back to their normal herd life.

I hope ya'all love the horses.
Thanks for reading.

The Shards of Sylvia's Soul
In the little village of Nyberg, Sylvia is dreaming of a future with Rebecca at her side. Together, they could move overseas. But when bandits attack, all of her tender dreams turn to ashes. Forced out of her home, Sylvia forges new bonds with the Fri, the women who have taken it upon themselves to protect their little corner of the world. She also meets Afi, a strange bandit with a stern face and a soft heart. Saving each other from certain demise, they join in a bond which irreversibly ties their souls together. So bonded, they attempt to settle down. When a distant heir to the Crown asks for aid to reunite the country, Sylvia sees her chance to finally right all the wrongs committed against her family. In the pursuit of the throne, Afi and Sylvia come to risk their very lives. Sylvia uncovers the relationship between soul, magic, and divinity itself, but even in research, there is peril. It is not an easy task to balance the strain on her soul with the demands of the upcoming battle. In this world, the soul is not an incorporeal concept. To the contrary, the human soul is a physical object, an organ which resides in the chest of each individual. It is a great source of strength, but also of vulnerability. Hardship can leave scratches and blemishes, or even break the soul in two. The soul is each person's connection to divinity, to the magic which is ubiquitous to the world. It enables the cultivation of gods, but old legends warn of demons emerging in the presence of corrupt intention, and of hollow warriors, with no soul at all. There are two sides to every page. Update ScheduleNew chapters are in the works. ScopeThree to four books in total are planned.Book 1: "Fri Women" Chapters 1-64. Find the paperback and e-book here.

The modern world had become exposed to a new element which became unanimously known as "Mana" after a freak meteorite incident, creating people with superpowers and monsters that threaten life on Earth. Perun, the "Progenitor" of the meta-humans retired as a war hero and created a Dark Guild, its members being the war orphans he had adopted throughout his career. His peaceful life of filling paperwork begins to collapse as the nightmare of his "Awakening" becomes increasingly unbearable, forcing his once-powerful abilities to turn dormant. Unbeknownst to Perun, the problem children he had adopted since young, have grown up into girls with cheat-level abilities due to the properties of his mana; they became meta-humans far beyond the level of humanity, powers that contest a twisted love monopoly for their father. Should anyone bare their fangs (or romantic interest) towards their beloved one, their sweet facades shall break with no hesitation. When their seemingly unaware Master is forced to return to the center stage again as a "Level 1" character like the rest of the world, his obsessive daughters shall move beneath the shadows to create his new legend. This is the story of yanderes & obsessions.
