The Half-Blood Brigade

Emerick is the half blooded bastard son of Arnwald the Sky Tyrant, ruler of the Esperion Kingdom of the Wyrmshire Empire. Though a prince, his mixed blood prevents him from inheriting his father's throne. Resigned to his evident fate as a caged bird, he is content to live a fruitless but privileged life... until a task from his father throws him in the path of Trixie, big sister to a group of orphans she calls the Half-blood Brigade. Ambition rekindled with blossoming romance and the injustice towards those of mixed blood, Emerick finds himself on the conqueror's path, Trixie and her rag tag family at his side.

Chapter 80

Liron paced restlessly as the crimson glow of the blood moon shone through his window. It was past midnight, but he couldn't settle down enough to sleep. Something foul was afoot, he could feel it in his bones. He had to do something, anything.

He cast a glance to the cot where Zeke was sleeping peacefully. Part of him wanted nothing more than to curl up on his own cot and drift away peacefully into a dream, but something about the moonlight charged him with an uneasy energy. He was undeniably exhausted, but sleep wasn't an option. With a sigh, Liron fetched his coat and slipped quietly from the house. Maybe a walk would clear his head.
