Chapter 1: Is This a Dream?

*Soren*

“Boss, what a victory!” someone shouted from across the inn. He stood up and raised his glass to me.

I raised my glass back as others cheered and added to the toast.

“Cheers for the boss!” others chorused together.

“Soren! Soren! Soren!”

They all went wild and the bartender came around with more pitchers of beer and hard liquor. The party was really getting started now.

Why wouldn’t they celebrate and be happy? They might be unwanted outcasts, but they were alive.

I listened to the sound of the wind outside. It had died down considerably and pellets of sand weren’t pelting against the outside of the inn anymore.

Every day, these men were alive was a blessing from the Moon Goddess. Today, it was even luckier. Not everyone had escaped the sandstorm. On top of that, they had finally secured a large territory for themselves. A place to build on—a place they could always return to.
