Grinning, Fowl didn’t hesitate and lifted the lid, each of them glancing inside to see what was there.
“Well, I...

Max hadn’t even considered that a possible attack, especially after just making another massive wound to that leg.

2023-12-26 14:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostKaen could feel Pammon’s body beginning to tire some as the second full day of flying ended. The storm clouds had finally faded away behind them, and blank skies, baking them in the sun over endless water, was all they experienced for the last few hours.
This seems like a foolis...

The matter of honor had to be proven, and when Kaen left in the morning, both gave him a small gift. Tioanoe gave Kaen a small blueish rock with sparks inside i...

“That doesn’t leave us many choices, does it?” Fowl asked as he watched Tanila tapping her chin.
“Batrire’s ri...
2023-12-25 14:00:10 +0000 UTC View Post“My name is Tioanoe.”
Pammon had stopped growling and moved his head about four feet from the woman.
Kaen nodded as he gave a smile. Tioanoe’s voice had somehow not trembled at all when she said that.
Kaen stood there, watching her as she kept her eyes on his feet.

2023-12-22 14:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostMax’s plan had worked almost exactly as he had hoped.
He went in stealthed. Right before he got to the first warrior, Fowl ran forward, getting their attention and using his massive shield to block the initial attacks from the archers.
A single strike of Max’s sword cut the warrio...

2023-12-21 14:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostDropping the sword in his left hand, Max felt his hand shaking as he reached for the shaft he could see with his right eye. Grabbing it, he hesitated. He saw Fowl fighting one of the archers, and the other, which must have shot him, was nocking another arrow.
Bending down, he gr...

2023-12-19 14:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post“I’m on it!” Max shouted as he cast an ice bolt at the kemonomimi that had run past Fowl and was sprinting at Tanila.
The ice bolt struck it in its back, not damaging it much, but enough to slow it down and draw its attention off their mage.
Fowl had two male cat warriors on him...

Originally I had them discarding the rings for fear of what would happen if they turned them in. Such a monster has not been seen in a long time and them defeating it would be impressive.
However - I can easily fix that and they can keep it f...
