《Ode to Freud》Extra Chapter 47: Forest Spirit Tales (5)
Advertisement
One day a good hunter was going through the Forest Spirit’s forest.
Then, it meets a bad hunter.
It turns and says:
“Bad hunter, why do you leave your prey behind?”
The Bad Hunter answers:
“Because I don’t need it.”
“Then, why do you hunt?” – Asks the Good Hunter.
“Because I think it’s fun” – Says the Bad Hunter.
“You should be careful” – Warns the Good Hunter.
“Careful of what?” – Defies the Bad Hunter.
“Of leaving a trail behind.” – Says the Good Hunter, leaving the place.
“Bah! Hogwash! The forest spirit will protect me!” – Says the Bad Hunter.
Then, as it aims at another rabbit, a bear attacks and rips him to pieces.
Foolish is the hunter who believe itself more worthy than its prey!

Wizard's Tower
The humans call me Nemon Fargus. They call me wizard, and [Elementalist] and [Enchanter]. They call me teacher. They call me adventurer. But I don't care. Not anymore. For more than a hundred and fifty years I've served the Kingdom of Sena. Through four Kings and a Queen. Two wars and a rebellion. I've founded and taught at a magic school. I've fought against beast waves and dungeon breaks. But now? Now, the one close friend I had left has passed. So, I'm done with their politics and their economics. The short and busy lives of humans are more burden than benefit on the weary soul of this half-elf. Now, I'm looking for a refuge, a place that can well and truly be my own. Away from the growing cities and the bustling markets, away from the pointless wars, away from the eager students and the arrogant adventurers. It's too much. I'm seeking the peaceful life of a wizard in his tower, studying magic to advance my spellcraft. We'll see if that happens. *synopsis covers book 1 / ac 1 Author's housekeeping: This story is a rough draft.

Sophie Dresden, the new vampire leader, never imagined her once proud race would come to an end like this--starving in trailer parks. ******* All humans are dead and magical creatures run amok.

Meet Sophia Dresden, the current vampire leader left holding the bag. She's on a mission to keep this ragtag race of the undead from extinction. But with her childhood pet werewolf now her boss and all remaining vampires sequestered in trailer parks, that's easier said than done. Her trusty harpy, and only confidant, is determined to help her. But time's running out and if they don't find a new feeding ground fast, the vampires are doomed to an eternity of a fate worse than death. And no, it's NOT peasantry.
