Why I (don't) regret looking for the dragon's eyes

Just as he’s about to resign to a bleak fate, a mysterious figure with ties to forbidden magic offers Arthur a choice: break free and seek the fabled Dragon's Eyes, or remain bound by royal duty. On this quest, he risks everything: his loyalties, family ties, and deepest beliefs. As he uncovers hidden powers, he faces powerful forces determined to prevent him from changing his destiny. Embark on Arthur's journey, an adventure where casting aside one’s humanity becomes a path, not a barrier to untold power.

Inspection

The mages organized themselves to dig the tombs. A plague on the new continent was out of the question. 

Beli and Arthur dragged the bodies, the beastfolk had great physical strength but Arthur cheated. He used greed whenever he could to pull the bodies out more easily. He couldn't use his power on an organism but on anything inert. 

For exercise, he concentrated on the mages' accessories, belts, and pieces of armor, and on the metal soles of his shoes. The task was child's play. 

Chief Airo was still inspecting the traces of the battle when he saw the rainfolk move away.

"Where do you think you're going?" He asked. 

"Sir, the miners are waiting for food from our lands, I've been alone for two days carrying out this task and I'm not enough for them. It's only a matter of time before Coal Nine withers away on its own."
