Graeae: Land of beauty and nightmares

Beyond the Frozen ranges and through the Twin peaks of cruelty, the world of men ends. And this is where the Lord of destitute hibernate. His army of monsters, the destitute, consist of orcs, ogres, goblins and whatever cruel creature one could conjure. They come to the land of men, plunder, murder and take their women as playthings. They take their blood and feed it their lord – feeding him strength. On another part of Deimo, closer to the borders of Deino, lives a boy. He is not like the others around him, for his hair is blonde and his skin is pale. What's more, his father's hair is red and his mother's blue. His name – Osmond Ward. He didn't know nothing of the world, for he was merely seven. He didn't know he had the blood of the spirit of fire and water running through him. He didn't know that his family was banished, for his parents belonged to different castes; they followed different gods, and gods are selfish in their followers. But when the monsters came to his village, and when they killed his mother, he couldn't nothing but watch. His father died on that day, trying to help him escape. When he was taken in by his uncle, he had only thing in his mind; revenge. But for that, he need to see the world and learn. A world of Divine artifacts and chants. A world of elemental spirits and strange energies. A world of elves, the followers of light; dwarves, the followers of metal and rock; lizard men, the follower of sands, and demi-humans, the followers of lightning. A land of beasts and monsters. The land of Graeae, a land of beauty and nightmares. Additional tags: #dark #grimdark #darkfantasy #revenge #elves #dwarves #asofai #tolkien #gore #adult

The gem of will

Abe and Azura were weary from hunger. They leaned on each other and walked. Teresa came over to Azura's side and carried her. Valora looked over at Henry and he took Abe to his shoulder.

"Let's get these two something to eat," Valora said.

The two looked around with their narrow green eyes, taking in everything that they did not know before. Azura saw a cat fighting against a raven for a piece of fish.

'I saw it first,' she heard a hissing in her head.

The raved cawed and struck with its talons. The cat took a strike to its eyes and hissed. It ran off in pain.

"I know this place called The one-eyed owl. They have these really soft and sweet apple pies," Henry said.

A pang escaped Valora's heart. She remembered that place. It was where she had the last meal with her friends. She decided to go there, for revisiting that place might help reconcile some old wounds.
