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 19: On the road again.

 With both Edwin and Hadrian agreeing that they were going to take care of the children, the choice was clear. They went to the mayor, got the three adopted under Edwin's name, as Hadrian was an outlaw, and bought a covered carriage with two horses.

The back of the carriage was full of fodder for the horses, and Hadrian even braved the sunrise inside. At nightfall, he came out refreshed and wide awake, singing the praises of the comfy seats inside.

And so, they gathered their things and got back on the road soon after. Edwin was driving the carriage with Luciano next to him. He felt that now it was as good as time as any to begin teaching the boy. But he felt he needed to speak plainly, least he snuffed out the boy's enthusiasm to become a healer.

"Lucy, do you know what the most important thing about healing is?" asked Edwin. The boy smiled brightly and nodded.
