《The Spark of Balance: The Realm of Mianite (Book 1)》Ch79- BONUS SCENE
Advertisement
Claire POV-
After all the commotion of that day with the withers and court building, Jordan was exhausted...but she had a promise to fulfill.
It was late at night, but not late enough that the priest would be asleep. He usually stayed up till what she considered to be midnight.
To confirm her suspicions, she could see the glow of his candles through his windows once she reached his home.
With a sigh, she knocked on the door.
The priest opened the door and looked confused at her visit, probably because she never visited.
"Hey, do you mind if I come in?" She asked
"I guess not, is everything ok?" He said, moving aside to let her pass
His house wasn't the most organized, but it was the one that felt the most like home. It was filled with millions of books and chests with supplies. It had personal photos hanging on the walls and magical artifacts all over the place.
Jordan knew Dianite would be watching, so she had to make it good.
As soon as the priest closed the door, Jordan began to hold her breath to light up her face bright red as if she was blushing.
"I kind of need advice, and I didn't know who else to talk to" she said, turning around for him to see how flustered she looked
"Ok?" He said
"I know you must be shocked to have learned about me and Dianite"
"Yeah, never thought I'd see the day"
"Well, this is about that..."
The priest cut her off with a hand gesture and said "Before you say anything, of course I wont tell anyone"
"Thats not what I wanted to say...I need advice about Dianite" she said
"I got some good advice, don't get yourself killed again. Easy." Declan said, offering her a cup of tea

She took it and carefully blew at the cup, cooling the tea innocently.
"I mean relationship advice Dec" she said after taking a sip " I want to know...how to...um...be a better girlfriend"
The dropped his tea on the carpet and looked at her perplexed
"Excuse me?" He said, not even bothering to clean up
"I'm sure you saw us making out right?"she asked.
Details about stuff made people uncomfortable, she knew that because back home she had to bare with other's inappropriate drama that never failed to make her uncomfortable.
But now it had come in handy.
"More like swallowing each other..but why.." He said
"Well....we always have fun times like that but I want to know what I can do to be better you know" even saying stuff like that disgusted her but it seemed to be working
Dec was bright red and had even begun to curl up into a ball, unable to keep eye contact with her.
"Your relationship is none of my business, do as you wish" he said
"But you have know him longer! How can I romance a god?"she asked
"Romance!? Jordan! This is what Sonja is here for!" He finally screamed
Though she felt horrible for making him so uncomfortable, she had to admit, it was kinda funny.
Seeing such a serious and composed person like the priest look so flustered almost made her laugh.
"But you're a guy, you must know what guys like, right?"
"DON'T ASK ME STUFF LIKE THAT!!!!" The priest said as he got up and made his way to the kitchen
She followed him there and sat on his counter, trying to look as comfortable as possible.
"Why don't you ask Tucker? He has a girlfriend, I'm sure he could help" he said

"And have him go all big brother on me! He would kill Dianite, besides, its not like I would be comfortable asking him anyways. Thats why I'm here"
"Why don't we just finish our tea and, I don't know, come up with plans to save Ianite?"
"Because I have a very important date tonight" she lied
"A date!?" The priest asked in fear "You need to be careful around him you know! I'm not your father or anything but I beg of you to be safe"
Jordan tried to come up with a snarky embarrassing remark but she couldn't at that point, instead she just laughed until she fell off the counter and dried her tears of joy
"Im sorry, I can't keep doing this! Your sweating and your hands are shaking!" She said
Then Dianite appeared next to her
"Good job my love" he said giving her a kiss
"YOU!! This was all a plot!" The priest said
"Guilty as charged. Seems my lovely lady did a great job"
"I'm so sorry priest!" Jordan apologized
"You guys are literally the most dangerous couple on this world!"
"Its like we were meant for each other" Dianite said, kissing her to make Dec even more uncomfortable
"Honestly, I don't even know how Tom is gonna deal with this!" The priest mumbled
"What do you mean?" Jordan asked
"Well, knowing the love of his life is causing chaos with his god and dating him! Yeah, id be pretty upset!" The priest answered
"You too! For the last time, Tom doesn't like me like that" she said
"Are you serious? How have you not noticed, I'm sure even Dianite has!" He answered, almost annoyed
"Dianite?" She asked when she saw the seriousness in his eyes
"Does he?" She asked when he didn't answer
"Tom is a vey complicated being, he is a very devoted follower that has a love for destruction and chaos" he said, evading the question
"Why wont you just say yes? We all know he has feelings for her, even Mianite pointed it out once during tea" said the priest
"Because its not important, if he liked her so much don't you think he would have told her?" Dianite replied
"Im right here folks! Right here!" Jordan said, making her pretense known
Dianite went over and put his arm around her, never taking his eyes off the priest.
"They are best friends Declan, he feels nothing else. Don't attempt to sabotage my relationship" he said
"At least I'm not affecting her so much that her aura has changed" the priest said before they were teleported out

Midthalion Saga
+++Working on new chapters. Share what I've posted with your friends and family! Be sure to build strong bonds with those who are important to you. We only have each other in this world for so long!+++ Can Roderick XXIII gather together and train a party of adventurers to clear out Madeon Caves and bring peace to the wildmarches of Midthalion? Sent from his home monastery in the west to the wildmarches of Midthalion, Roderick the Holy Avenger is devoted to living out his oath to bring the Holy Light to the dark corners of the world. He enlists the help of an old friend, Ulrich Vogelbrandt the dwarf druid, to train and prepare a fighting force capable of defending the west from the evil they both see gathering and growing in the east. Eoroth is an ode to Tolkienesque epic fantasy, Robert E Howard and H.P. Lovecraft's pulp fiction, and Gygaxian Dungeons & Dragons. I like to write about serious topics because I think it's fun. I hope it makes for a fun read. Place: Eoroth, a vast, flat world with many continents set in oceans that reach out and mingle with the Celestial Sea. Our story takes place on the continent of Thalion in the middle, unsettled region called Midthalion. Peoples: Races in Eoroth aren't different species; the species of man is just incredibly diverse, consisting of many known races (and perhaps some unknown). There are no humans in Thalion. Thalion's races include variations of elves, dwarves, halflings (billowits), pierros (clownish men), bergeracs (long-nosed and swarthy men of honour), orcs, trolls, goblins, and hobgobs. The Church: There's one dominant religion in Westhalion. The faith of the elves is an analogue to Roman Catholicism while the dwarves practice an Eastern Orthodox analogue. (Forgive me for not having figured out names yet.) The practitioners worship a triune god (the All-Father, Son-of-All, and Holy Light). There are many powers in heaven, all created by God. These include the Twelve High Thrones, individual, created beings who take on the role of guiding mankind in different aspects, drawing them closer and closer to God. (That should be the essentials. I could write pages on the theology. Comment where something's unclear in the story.) Natural World: There are plants and animals in Eoroth, but the world is also inhabited by spirits called aeons. Aeons are transformative beings; in the wild, they'll change based on whatever is happening nearby. Pollute a pond? Expect to see toxic toad-men running around. Leave a bunch of dead bodies strewn across a battlefield? Expect the place to become haunted with ghouls and ghasts. Druids are important for making sure that the aeons are pacified; that their needs are met so that they don't become rampaging monsters. Where the wilderness becomes overgrown, so too do the aeons. Aeons and People: Long ago, men learned how to trap aeons in stone tablets and use them for war. Now, anyone can capture an aeon into a special staff made by a druid. Men train, raise, and bond with these aeons. Druids often build entire ranches devoted to raising healthy aeons as allies and companions. Aeons are divided into twelve known families, and the church sees these as corresponding with the Twelve Thrones in Heaven. Direction: My goal is to get the story to one million words by June next year. I have tons of content in mind for the world. I want to release novels set in different ages of the world depicting different historical events. I hope to expand the setting into a tabletop role-playing game as well as a series of old-school JRPGs. But, it all begins with writing some stories and publishing my novels.
