“I’m glad that worked out,” Max declared as he leaned back against the carriage they had rented to take them back to the inn. “I was a bit nervous when you told them we would commit today, but that discount sounds amazing.”
Tanila chuckled slightly as she agreed. “Th...

Pammon flew through the air, holding Kaen in his front talons, doing everything he could to not crush him or injure him more.
I am almost to you! Be ready to heal him!
This is my fault… I wasn’t strong enough… I should have waited…

Glancing again through the doorway, Grace couldn’t help but smirk at how the men with the bows hadn’t moved. They were trained, not wasting an arrow.
She summoned a Wind Blade. Even though it was her first time, Grace knew how it would work. No doubt in her body, spiri...

Grace wanted to cry and sob, but inside her was something different. Her mind knew there had been no other choice. Max knew it. He had told her before this started that he would handle the priestess.

Grace knew the fire would be roasting her alive if she had been any slower.
Max shouted as the flames came for them, and she took off, breaking to the right side and running along the stone benches.

As the green spell left Stioks's hand and rolled toward him, Kaen leaped, every ounce of power filling his legs, jumping higher than he had ever managed before.
Thirty feet in the air, he flew over and past Stioks, coming down toward the ground close to the brown dragon, which was turning a...

The guard's head bounced along the walkway. His metal chain coif had done nothing to stop her blade.

The two pushed the cart as quickly as possible, the flames generating heat as more arrows plunged into the cart. Splashes of fire from whatever oil the arrows were wrapped and dipped in caused it to spread faster.

Pouring his strength into Pammon, Kaen gave all the life force and power he could.

As the door to the private room shut, Max stared at the food Alexander had brought and set on their table.

That moment in the street almost made Max feel like a bard at an inn, telling a story and doing his best to ensure everyone who heard it believed every word he spoke.
The guards surrounding him occasionally made sounds in reply, each time quieting down when Vella barely tsked her tongue.
