Kassel had not gone far. Just a few steps from the entrance, he tucked his hands into his waistband and looked up at the distant sky. Tanya also looked up in the same direction. Strange birds with necks and tails longer than their bodies were flying in groups toward the north. Tanya approached to say…

The Lemifs’ meeting was underway with much noise. Kassel and Tanya entered through the door without many noticing their presence. Only a few soldiers spotted them and showed a hint of caution. However, when Lofin stood by their side and signaled to the soldiers that it was alright, they immediately relaxed their guard. ‘It seems…

Tailed frequently visited Aranthia and was so fond of Queen Sanadiel that Tanya, albeit reluctantly, came to learn about the Wolf Knights. About a decade ago, when Tailed left for Aranthia to assist in the war, leaving Tanya behind in Lutia, they lived apart. They exchanged letters once a week, in which Tailed often pressed…

Lemifs referred to humans as ‘Ugeh,’ meaning ‘fairy,’ and called themselves ‘Lemif’ or ‘Lemi Quap,’ which means ‘human.’ Although she had heard many stories about the Lemifs of the Sky Mountains from her mentor, Tanya had not specifically studied related subjects at Kainswick. ‘I never thought I’d regret my choice of elective courses at Kainswick…

A twelve years old Tanya stood atop a high cliff. When she used to come here for picnics with her dad, mom, sister who was four years older, and younger brother two years her junior, she would forget her father’s warning not to go near the cliff’s edge and would stand here, dancing alone with…

When Dunmel opened his eyes again, he was lying in bed, looking up at the white ceiling. “Are you awake? Your complexion looks better. Do you recognize me?” She was Hedi, a teacher from Kainswick and a close friend of Flora. She also served as the doctor in charge of everyone at the field hospital…

After witnessing the fall of the Red Rose Count’s castle and Latilda rising from the dead through dark powers, Dunmel headed towards Blackfoot. He neither went to Leang to join with Loyal nor to Ambrue to save Kassel. Somehow, Dunmel had a hunch that Karlsten was behind the start of this incident and for the…

Arrows and spells shot through the air, belatedly released by the archers and sorcerers. The wave of monsters rushing forward consumed the arrows, and the Mozes tumbled to the ground in dust clouds. Numerous Mozes were struck down, and even more tripped over their fallen brethren. But these attacks were insufficient to halt their charge….

“There are twenty-six swords, twenty-two if you exclude the broken ones. As for spears, we only have forty-four, including the broken ones. Out of these, only thirty-five are strong enough to pierce the tough skin of the Mozes. The rest are just pieces of iron attached to wooden handles. We have four battle axes, but…
