Chapter 9: More Strangers
As it kept being dead silent I first would check the window in case he did not really leave, but I saw nothing, nobody was outside the house, or nearby as far as I could see through the window, it was quickly becoming dark outside, I decided to stay the night, and leave early in the morning since it was not safe to travel in the night with creatures and strange people with weapons running around, I would go back upstairs closing my room door locking it from the inside, the night went on peacefully, it kept being deadly silent all around the house before I knew it I woke up, it was early in the morning, I stood up opening my room door, as I would hear voices from down the stairs, it was the same man from the day before, but this time there were like five more men with him all in black wearing the same type of sword, one had a bow on his back.
I would quickly hide at the same place I hide before, looking down the stairs, as the man who took a sample of the blood before showed them the place with the blood on the ground, they all seemed to be very interested in the blood, I wondered why, and who were they? I did not trust them at all, I stayed hidden till they were all gone, after some hours they would leave the house, they took a lot of the blood with them, I had no idea why or where they were going to take it, but one thing was for sure I did not want to find out.

Thank you for reading, as always. ^.^ Afterword: Hello there everyone, and welcome back those that have already read the first story. If you are new, don't worry too much about the first step of the series. Truly, this second part aims to cover most of what was done there. Those that have read it will know a few secrets and plot points before we see them. Though it shouldn't detract from your reading of this one. Honestly, the first one was a bit rough, but do as you will. I will warn that this will tackle some serious topics and might end up getting rather explicit in terms of what is done or seen by the characters. There is a bit to cover, so I'll explain what I can between chapters without overloading anyone, hopefully. -Cover Art drawn by Cozie [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

The Saga of Geir Røshjert
"His name will never be sung, son. Skalds and bards like me will never tell his stories to the mass. But only us and us alone will keep telling his story, his actions, his saga. For he is the man who started all of this." This is a story no man in Lumenter will ever hear, no man except for an Arnesen, for his stories are dull and generic to the ears of the masses, except for us, because he is the very reason why our people traveled this far east, why kingdoms in Erisgi fell and rose, why I... even existed in the first place. He is Geir, son of Arne, called 'the Stranger' by the people. But what he truly is, is a fiery red heart that beats inside every Eyklandian, Arnesen, and me.

Bastard's Wrath
The Wyvern reared its humongous head, serpent neck coiling back, onyx scales of opulence shimmering in the dimness of the cloud smothered sky. It spoke, eye's ashen, like the surface of a star, "What is it you desire, boy?" The word's rolled from it's pointed maw, tongue flicking, it's deep and ferocious voice sending the ground below rumbling. Damien looked up, hair sodden with rain, his face battered beyond recognition, his lips curled into a snarl. He had gone past the point of being frightened; he was tired of his weakness. He spoke, voice wavering, mist floating from his mouth in the coldness: "I want them dead. I want everyone who stabbed me in the back; dead." The Wyvern smiled, rows of teeth exposed, "Then sacrifice it. Sacrifice your humanity." - The story of a bastard within a crippled family,who beyond all odds becomes known as the Greatest Swordsman to live: the one that, even the Gods, would someday fear.
