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 85: Cold conclusions

 The message that there were no new cases of the coughing sickness was a welcomed one. Edwin placed the hood of his hood back around his head, and it hung low, obscuring his eyes. He attempted to right it but gave up soon after.

It was either staring at his feet or having his head freeze in the cold winds that were stirring the sand every which way. The choice was simple, practically made for him.

He raised his hood a little to see how Sebastian was fairing in the back of the sand sled. The red head was bundled up in a woolen blanket and shivering.

They had not been eating well. The merchants hadn't refused to feed them, but Edwin enforced rationing. For the good health of those around them.

Edwin unwrapped his blanket from himself and threw it to Sebastian.

"Bundle up," Sebastian opened his eyes to scoff at him.
