《Wolfheim》Chapter 3: An Old Ghost Part 1

- Alamannia, Holy Roman Empire, 870 a.D. -
All conversations have been translated from Alemannic, Old High German and Latin. Just to be sure everyone who reads this chapter understands what the hell the characters are saying!
The day breaks. People gather around to thank the gods for another day of Sun. The Alemanni tribes do not worship the Christian God. For the Holy Emperor, that's not a problem, as long as they bow to him. A group of Imperial Knights approach a small settlement of tribes. Their horses galloping furiously, as if chasing something. As they reached the "village", they stopped. One of the knights begins to speak.
– I bring to you a message from the Holy Emperor himself. "I, Holy Roman Emperor Louis, second of this name, bring you a warning. The tribes of Alamannia shall bow to me, to the Pope and to God. It is time to end the paganism of this land." – the knight folded back the scroll.
– Why does the emperor decide this now? No emperor before him took that stance. – an old man asked.
– The Empire is at war with the Saracens. And the Empire requires more knights. But in a Holy War, we cannot have pagans fighting in the name of a god they don't believe in. – another knight, one with long blond hair and blue eyes, answers the man – I myself am an Alemanni. And it pains me to almost force my own kind to bow to God. I believe in him on my own terms, but it was a decision I had to make some time ago...
– Well, if it is an Alemanni who asks us, we'll do it. Young boy, what is your name? – the old man asks.
– Siegfried. Siegfried von Krone.

Circumventing Fate
When Lei Xing booked a luxurious cruise as a graduation present to herself, she expected to have plenty of well-deserved rest and relaxation with an ocean view before jumpstarting her career. What she did not expect was to be the unlucky person who would fall overboard to a miserable watery death… or so she thought. To her astonishment, she opened her eyes to find herself in an ancient setting, a different body, and a new life as the eldest daughter of a high court official. {...Okay, at least I'm rich...I can still live happily and freely, it's still a golden opportunity at a second life. I can live it well~...maybe go travelling, start a business, or something…It definitely could be worse...} To Lei Xing’s horror, her new host was scheduled to enter the palace to compete in the concubine selection for the new Emperor. {...What?! I am definitely not interested! Of all places, it’s that viper pit! I’m not built for any Royal BS or harem fights. Please keep your scheming lives to yourselves and leave me the hell out of it, NOT INTERESTED!!!... Can I not go, please? T_T)...No? Nevermind then, failure is always an option... Failure is the only possible outcome. Bring it on! Hahahaha…} While Lei Xing was making plans on how to skip out of town, fate was also very busy working out its own plans for her, mapping out its own course for her life behind the scenes... Poking holes in her plans to her confusion and outrage. "...Little chicken, as long as I'm alive you won't die." "Nonsense, if anyone is going to cause my death, it would be you!!" *** "Do you really feel nothing after all this time?" He asked as he looked at her with searching eyes, trying to see into her soul... "...Who...would..." she mumbled under her breath... *** "That stupid old man, I'm going to end him when I find him...You better hide well!!" |||~~~~~~~~~~~||| Author's Note~~ Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the read as you go along!

Wolf's Tail Reboot
I always thought death would be the end, but I later found out that it was just the beginning. I was a slave for my entire life. I served diligently, hoping I would be free someday. But then I died. My stomach was slashed open in a flash, and I bled out. I was ready for death; I had been since I was first collared. I was even happy to sleep an eternal rest. I just didn't realize that death was my opportunity to really live. -------------------------- Author's Note: I don't plan on having any explicit sexual content, but the tag is on so that I won't feel restrained in my writings. Also, the updates will be sporadic at best since I can only write when I'm free which is, unfortunately, rare.

Echoes of War
In the high fantasy world of Shtar the Lich King War is finally over after more than a century of brutal fighting that spanned the entire Six Worlds. Coming home after fighting in the entire war, Daln Ralvden discovers that his house is on the edge of being declared empty. The youngest member of the house has been war-souled and declared herself a Warlord, and the oldest is a mage who's power was brutally burned out of her by the death of the Queen of the World. Amid the backdrop of restoration the question of where exactly House Ralvden, and Daln, fit is very much up in the air. With enemies on all sides, many of whom cannot be faced with a naked blade, can Daln and his great grand niece, the Warlord Bloody Elshon, ensure that House Ralvden does not fade into history as so many others have?

Iron and Wood - A Tale Of Empire and Clans
For centuries, the Midlands had been split into fragments. A once glorious, united Empire has become a shadow of its former self. Unity has not returned, and not for the lack of trying. The greatest of these successor states were the Li Dynasty to the south, the rulers of old, and the Emerald Empire to the North, with its vibrant vitality. Unity is the end goal, and both will sacrifice anything to attain this elusive dream. For unity would surely solve the conflict that had long plagued this once prosperous continent. The Ironwood Clan was a prime player. Some would consider them the ones holding the reigns to the horse named 'Unification'. Iron and wood were the backbones of civilization; similarly, the Ironwoods were the backbones of the Northern Empire, and by extension, the people of the Midlands. Their methods, as questionable as they might be, had strengthened the North. Yet, were they enough? In the midst of it all, a young Ironwood who had lost his path must once again find his way. For the sake of his own wellbeing; for the sake of his clan; and for the sake of the Empire and its subjects. However, is he willing to sacrifice for the good of all? Is he willing to condemn some for the sake of others? Is he willing to make the right, albeit harsh, decisions? Only the heavens would know. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, events and incidents are the products of the author’s imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. Additionally, any views and beliefs expressed by the characters are not the author's own. The story is also not an endorsement of any actions taken within. The 'profanity' and 'sexual content' warning tags are there to be safe (and to leave room for potential future changes), but for now these two things are not inside this novel. This is my take on 'cultivation', though it might be somewhat disconnected from the general idea of the genre. Release schedule: Two chapters a week. The cover was created using wombo art. While I believe that creations using the app are in the public domain, if that is not the case, I will take it down.
