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.

Chapter 55: As it gets dark.

Hadrian stared at the now crimson eyes of Edwin, so unlike his own and a clear indication of what he had done, and felt as if he was going to be sick.

Sire killers were not unheard of, but they were not welcomed by the vampire community as a whole.

Even though Paul had been a git and a half, Hadrian had never raised his hand against his sire. Nor against Fernand, despite knowing of his garden. In this way, a vampire coven was like a family.

You didn't go up against family.

"Who attacked you, Eddy?" Who did you attack? Hadrian truly wanted to ask. But he owed it to Edwin to give him some trust. A sliver of it, for the sake of their friendship.

"A certain Fernand Polites. He knew of you. I have a secret to share with you, Harry," Edwin looked torn at that. He took a step towards Hadrian, and the vampire took one towards him. That seemed to give him courage.
