《A curious cat's life in a new world》Fight with a Cockatrice II
Advertisement
The wind blew past and in it's wake left behind leaves falling down on the staring contest between a cat and a (chicken) cockatrice.
Alfie crouched down, lowered her head and arched her back as her fur became stiff increasing her size. She then relaxed her legs to prepare for a decisive attack. On the other hand Prince spread it's wings as it stood still while perfectly balanced on a leg. They both stopped moving, eyes locked onto each other trying to anticipate their enemy's move.
Prince: Kkikkyok! ("Prepare yourself! This is a technique I've learned from a long legged nomad that stays in the south. Famous for fighting farmers with graceful movements.")
Alfie: Hiss! ("I did not understand what you just said but bring it on!")
She then kicked off the ground moving quickly towards Prince and swiped at him when her paw could reach him. Surprisingly he parried the attack with his wing and diverted the strength of the attack to the side.
Prince: Kkruuuukkyokkyok? ("Heh was that it?" Wow I can't believe it actually worked.)
Alfie: Nya-ong! ("You just got lucky!")
This time Alfie used prowl and vanished right infront of the flock. Prince started sweating beads and felt an impending crisis. A paw slapped his face is he rolled twice to the side.
Alfie: Meow ("That had just reminded me of something fun")
Prince: Kkeuukk? ("What do you think you're doing you beast?")
The flock of cockatrice began panicking at the sight of their Prince unable to move as he gazed at the the beast.
Hen1: Kiyaaak! ("Prince don't give up!")
Hen2: Yiiyookk... ("He stood up for our sake ...")
Hen n-th: Kkiyorurukk! ("We'll stay here with you until the very end!")
Prince: (Hey you lot better stop talking as if I'm dead already and try helping me!)
Alfie slowly walked to him while chuckling before stopping. She then looked at the cowering opponent and raised a paw and lightly tapped to make him roll to the side. She raised the other paw and did the same action and repeated it. As she slowly increased the strength and pace of the taps. Clearly she enjoyed playing with the opponent as her tail kept swishing left to right.
While she was preoccupied with playing a shadow closed up hovering above her unnoticed.

The White Rabbit
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is highly advised.

A Tragedy for a Demon Lord
In a world created from the love of two goddesses exists endless possibilities. The children of the two goddesses were given the gift of mana, a tool that can weave miracles through thoughts. Yet, with unlimited possibilities, prosperity was the first that disappeared in the world.While there was no difference between the two faction except for the fact that they were born from different mothers, conflict eventually arose out of that single disparity. The children of light saw the foreboding darkness within the heart of their enemies, yet they, who were born in the light, did not realize that they had stepped into the darkness. Because of the desire to eliminate the proclaimed heretics, the world was plunged into chaos and war.Those born to lead the children of the darkness were originally kind hearted souls. Their sole desire was to live in order to worship their mother and goddess. When the thought of war arose, they were the first to reject it. Even though they were born from darkness, they understood how beautiful the light, and the gift of life they received, was. However, after losing everyone and everything, their heart were eventually plunged into darkness. Without anything to live for, without anything to hold them back, they allowed themselves to be consumed by hatred. Cursing the Goddess of Light for the death of their family, those born from the darkness turned away from the light. From the chaos, the demon lords were born, and the cycle of chaos began. Long into the future, where those gifted with the ability to manipulate mana existed in few numbers, a child, fated to be consumed by chaos, was born. The child, born on the horizon that separates darkness and light, was given the blessing of both the Goddess of Darkness and the Goddess of Light. Because he did not exist within either side of the horizon, he was alone. Kept hidden within the castle of his father, he saw little of the world. But, he was content with the life he was given. He had loved his mother and father far more than he loved the world. As long as they were beside him, he did not feel alone. But, when the fated day arrived, his life was shattered. Broken and in despair, a child, born from the love of a demon lord and a human, sought for revenge- the sole reason he continues to live within a cold and merciless world that would never accept him.
