An Explorer's Guide (BL)

Completed! =) Healing is not just healing, it is also politics. Edwin had heard it all, had repeated it time and time again. He did not want to accept those words. They were vile, they were poisonous. A necromancer such as himself had no right to become a healer, he still did his best. An altruist like him had no place in the service of the king as Boliarin. He still refused to give up the title, for fear that someone else would take it, and plunge Duria into chaos. All his life, he had played by the rules. Even when he suffered losses, even when he believed he could not look himself in the mirror. Everyone has a breaking point. Edwin did not lie to himself. He was calm, but not sane. The camel's back had long since been broken. And yet, when his ray of moonlight, the vampire Hadrian, offered to travel with him, Edwin agreed. He lets himself pretend he was good, hoping he might lie to himself one of those days. Would Harry be enough to stop him from darkening the world? Or would he end up just another villain, who had once been bright-eyed and hopeful? The story is complete, and has 109 chapters in total, around 1k each. Updates: 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Thank you for your time! =)

Chapter 72: The desert

At the end of the week, the sprawling desert finally showed itself to them.

Sebastian had wasted no time in stashing away his clock and unbuttoning his shirt. Edwin lamented the loss of hard ground and made peace with the fact that there was going to be sand in his shoes from then on.

As they walked, they searched for a road. There wasn't one, but every 500 meters, there was a signpost. One of the planks read Asylum of Blood, so they walked in the general direction of the pointing arrow.

Just as night was falling, a strong wind came from the west. Edwin had heard about the fierce sandstorms in the deserts and didn't want to end up in one. But he had no idea what he could do.

"Come on, time to bury ourselves in the dunes," Sebastian yelled over the whipping wind.

"We will suffocate!" Edwin yelled back, blushing as he remembered what they were. "Never mind."
