However, his journey takes a dark turn when news of his father's undead assault reaches him. With Jagar in his sights, Gideon returns to Corundum to thwart his father's conquest. As Gideon navigates challenges, encounters enigmatic Beasts, and receives divine blessings, he realizes he's part of a cosmic game. The choices he makes set in motion a divine intervention, with gods descending upon the mortal plane. In a world on the brink of upheaval, Gideon must shape his destiny amidst celestial forces, where every decision carries weight. {{{Hey you! Yeah, you! I am a 35 year old man, and I just want to put it out here before you start reading that not all adults act or are as smart as their age credits them for. For the first time I have based the MC strictly off choices that I, myself would make in his position. I am sorry if my maturity isn't up to snuff, but before becoming a writer, I worked for 15 years in construction. I just wanted to add this little point before you read so you don't have any misconceptions going into this book!}}}

Chapter 16: Shadows Overshadowed

With the dwarf following behind me and about 15 guards surrounding us, we made our way out of the castle. I made Thordin stop by the garrison, but I also dropped Harold off to go with some guards to keep watch on Marcella. 

I couldn't take any chances, and it was part of the reason why I wanted Thordin to work with me. I needed to keep him updated so we could work in tandem to keep the castle's royalty safe. What I wanted to do was hunt down the assassins myself and get them out of the way. Instead, I had to trust that Daelen and his men would be keeping close eyes on them.

"I assume that you are going to tell me at some point why you want so many guards?" Thordin asked, and I nodded.
