《Rise of the Henchman》Side Story: Zek Vs. Phanuel
Advertisement
Lord Zek charges and throws a flurry of punches at Phanuel landing on his head and body. But Phanuel toughs it out and lands one solid shot on Lord Zek sending him flying into a building. Lord Zek peels himself of the building and puts some distance between the two. During this time Master Brushstroke and the others flee from the fight.
“Villain, running away is of no use. It is time to die and serve as the fertilizer for the good.” Phanuel says to Lord Brushstroke and the others as he walks to Lord Zek, who is leaning on a car.
As Phanuel draws closer, Lord Zek uses his finger to cut out a circular disk from the car he was leaning against. When Phanuel was about ten feet away he threw the disk at him, which Phanuel caught with his right hand. The disk cuts into his hand but it is a shallow wound. He then grabs it with his left hand and throws it at Lord Zek, at a blinding speed.
In the peripherals of his vision Lord zek sees something land on the ground next to him. When he directly looks at it he realizes that it is his left arm. The severing is at just below his shoulder but Lord Zek grit his teeth and suppressed the pain. To stop the bleeding he concentrates heat into his right hand to the point that his fingers start to produce flames and used that to cauterize the wound. After the emergency first-aide, he then ducks into the convenience store that is near him.
Phanuel slowly walks into the store as he says “Come now, let's put an end to this. I would rather not make this any more painful than it needs to be.”
During this time Lord Zek obtained a sheet of paper towel, placing it in his mouth while maneuvering through the alcohol aisle. He opens up a bottle stuffing the sheet into it and then uses his right hand to set it ablaze. He catches sight of Phanuel and throws the bottle hitting him on the face where it explodes.

“You bastard! YOU BASTARD!!!” Screams Phanuel in agony.
Robbed of his sight, Phanuel is enraged. He then starts to throw punches in the area he last saw Lord Zek. The shock waves from his punches decimates the store. The punches thrown were far stronger than his earlier punches, so Lord Zek decides to retreat to the street. As Lord Zek catches his breath, Phanuel has lost all reason and is desperately searching for Lord Zek destroying everything in his way.
Lord Zek cuts out the quarter panel of a nearby car and takes out the gas tank. He launches it at Phanuel, who destroys it and covers himself in gasoline. During this Lord Zek aims at Phanuel’s throat with his right hand. His fingers punctures the skin but is stopped by Phanuel. He has Lord Zek by the wrist, before Phanuel could go further, Lord Zek heats up his fingers and ignites the gas that on Phanuel. Phanuel let's go as he tries to put himself out. With severe burns to his hand, Lord Zek resolves himself.
While Phanuel is still distracted, Lord Zek heats up his fingers as hot as he can grabbing Phanuel’s face and the fingers slowly penetrate his skull while frying his brain. Phanuel tries to rip off the hand off but instead he ripped off Lord Zek’s arm at the elbow. Lord Zek loses his balance and falls to the ground. The fingers still stuck in Phanuel’s skull continue to burn and roast his brain.
Phanuel finally stops moving and falls to the ground, brain dead.

Musings of a Hypocrite
Mortals are weird. They insisted in unity, as well as individualism. More often than not, they're shocked at truth and honesty, but not at falsehood and deceit. They asked questions with multiple answers, and provided answers that begged other questions. They made things to break, they destroyed things to study, they researched things to recreate. Humans, Elves, Beastmen. All of them. Within these contradictions, a miracle might manifest. But this tended to work with a trial and error methodology. Most mortals never got the happy ending. This diary is my journey alongside a few students of mine. In simple terms - they learn, they grow, they fight. They'll journey through centuries of conflict, from the physical to the educational. They'll experience the cruelty and benelovence of all living-kind. They'll experience the consequences of their choices and the blessings of their rewards. They will grow to become useful to me, or die trying like all the others. As for you? The god reading our lives like a book, sitting in your chair without a care in the world? I will show you, the farce that is known as 'God'.

Saga of the Jewels VOLUME ONE COMPLETE
Prefer to listen to rather than read Saga of the Jewels? I'm also releasing it as a free audibook serial podcast on iTunes here! Epic YA JRPG-influenced GameLit progression ensemble-cast steampunk romance fantasy! When Ryn’s hometown is destroyed, will he be able to gather together the twelve Primeval Jewels in order to defeat the evil Emperor and save the world of Mid? A fan novelization of an amazing Final Fantasy game that doesn’t actually exist, that currently releases at least one chapter a month. Epic in that this will be very long. “It’s a marathon, not a sprint!” (-Kandaj) YA in that this should be enjoyable to~13-year-olds and upwards. Some gore, some swearing, some sex, but nothing more than PG-13. JRPG-influenced / GameLit in that it uses lots of JRPG tropes, particularly from Final Fantasy. I’ve read a lot of fan Final Fantasy novelisations and you can basically think of this as a fan novelisation of its own Final Fantasy game that doesn’t actually exist as a game... Progression in that the characters level up over time (though not with visible litrpg stat boxes). They grow in ability through training and experience, gain new skills, individually and as a party (think Chrono Trigger) and spend time discussing and stratgeising about how to defeat their opponents. Main protagonist from book three would definitely be able to defeat himself from book one! Ensemble-cast because we've got quite the roster of misfits here. The first volume is all from the main protagonist's POV, but it starts dancing between his and different POVs thereafter. Steampunk in that we’ve also got airships, steam trains, pistols and ambiguous ‘amber bars’ that function a bit like artificial lights… Romance in that there is lots of shipping here, a few love triangles, and you may be kept guessing as to who will actually end up together... Fantasy in that we’re in a vaguely pre-modern setting. We’ve got swords, magic, dragons, dungeons, monsters, all that good stuff. * "This story captures that Final Fantasy quality perfectly. Kiddy but also grim. The characters are great... Severely underrated and needs more favorites/follows. I look forward to seeing how this story will unfold." -Gilgamesh9999 "Starting at the end and jumping backwards is not a writing style seen every day. I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical at first, but you've executed a fairly crazy idea very skillfully so far. Overall, a strong start to what could be a very strong story." -RandomFF.netUser "You definitely have my interest piqued. It'll be interesting to see where the story goes... It definitely has an 'old school Final Fantasy' type feel to it, which I appreciate...Good job! I am glad you are going into more details about the story you laid out in the prologue...of course the big burning question is 'You know they lose in the the first chapter, so how will they end up winning?' That of course, is the story you're writing...so we'll see how it goes! #Following." -KyleQuicksilver (quotes are from reviews on other sites) * If you enjoy it, don’t forget to boost Saga of the Jewels on topwebfiction.com!
