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 23: Rum

They made it to Myrna on the first day of the snowfall. They found that there was nothing to do once they got there. There was a squad of healers actually doing their jobs after a wave of protests had rocked Mitestone.

On all corners of the street, people sold mana water filters and blood root sludge. As with any other trading campaign, this had been an invitation for charlatans.

Edwin saw more than one mana filter with no runes and more than one blood root sludge that was actually sewer waste. He had reported every merchant he saw that abused the pandemic, but more sprouted from the streets of Myrna every day.

As it was winter and the roads were blocked with snow and ice, they had rented an apartment at the inn and left their carriage and horses at the community stable. Edwin did not want to just stay and do nothing, so he went to the nearest clinic and offered his services.
