Veron stood amidst the massive dead Cayaralan, putting on his pack. He held his shield and mace, looking down at Silvie. Her right arm was gone. From a single bite.

They didn't come across another Vereltir on the way back to the tower. Or in the three hours after that. They did encounter one other team also on the hunt for the same creatures but didn't approach the group.

“Two mosquitos coming our way,” Reka called out. “Pull the body on land and rest. I’ll take care of them.”
Veron watched as Hayden and the bear grabbed on and pulled the corpse. He helped, sliding in the mud before he fell hard on his knee. He winced...

“Drainage pipes?” Veron asked. They were at least two meters high and made of dark metal. “Who built this place?”

“Where would be the fun in that?” Hayden replied....

The main Guild hall was not quite as busy as Veron would have expected. A large entrance to the left led to what he assumed to be a restaurant or bar based on the noise and the smells coming from the direction. The lighting in here was warm and well thought out, sev...

Veron was woken up early the next day. He got dressed, cleaned up, and prepped his gear for the journey. Before he left the room with Hayden, he mentally said goodbye to the comfortable bed. He would miss it, and at the same time, as he joined the others in the cour...

There was no monster attack in the night. Or in the nights that came after. They sometimes encountered different animals and creatures on the road but more often than not, they only heard their calls or someone found tracks of their passing.

The sound of pouring rain came in from outside. It was cold and dark, Veron pulling the blankets closer and murmuring to himself. Then he heard a strange howl, followed by a shout.

Veron looked at the rock and felt the strain of using up his Focus.
“What was that? It was flying!” Ian exclaimed.
“It was, wasn't it? I just advanced to the Novice level of my Earth Harmony.”

It took another week until Veron felt well enough to work out. The winds had grown cooler and the days had grown a little shorter. The leaves still had their green color but he could tell it wouldn't last for long.

Veron woke up with a start, seeing the unfamiliar ceiling and room. There had been a monster, a bear, something like that. He didn't know where he was, but he was alive. And he was thirsty.
Thirsty and weak. He felt like he had been hit by a truck, feeling a ...

Veron didn't leave yet. He sat there and thought about the Holt family. The talk hadn't been surprising. Ivera was worried about her son leaving their home, finding his own path out there, making his own mistakes. It did feel a little strange to him. It all felt so o...
