Progenitor

Walking through the streets of Algerie, a pair of men slowly made their way to an inn late at night.

"It's been a while since we've been here," said Wells to Edward, his expression that of slight excitement. "It's also been a while since we've last seen Valyr."

Having participated in the war against the orcs, it went without saying that Wells' appearance had drastically changed.

Wearing the uniform that was commonly worn by those in the frontlines, Wells had mostly lost the adventurous look he had in the past. 

Instead, it was replaced with the look of a battle-hardened veteran, the various wounds and scars on his body a reminder of his various struggles.

On the other hand, Edward now looked like a capable commander on the battlefield, even though his age was still that of an early teenager.
