The mysterious man, who was still grappling with the emptiness where his name should be, stood with the rebels, his borrowed bandana tied loosely around his neck. His face was impassive, but eyes blazing, drinking in each phrase, each movement. The rebels thought that he was one of them, and he let them believe so. His heart pounded furiously, not from terror, but from a rage boiling up in him that he could not fully articulate.

The cave echoed with muffled whispers, the men, and women hunched over benches, their whispers of plans. At their centre was a broad-shouldered man with a scar running through his brow, his own voice booming above the rest. "The girl has information on where The Ore is," he growled, slapping his fist on a wooden bench. "She's stubborn, but she'll break. When we get it, we'll make weapons to bring this empire crashing down to ashes."

The stranger's jaw set. Penelope. They were talking about Penelope, Boaz's daughter, curly brown hair and wild passion for a lege

He had to know the truth about his past, and he was willing to endure whatever hardships lay in his path.“I won't give up, I won't…” As he walked, the terrain shifted and changed, from dusty plains to rocky hills and dense forests.

    Druid jolted awake, his heart racing and his breathing increased. The familiar nightmare still lingered in his mind, the images of flames and a red-haired woman running, etched vividly in his memory. He rubbed his temples, trying to shake off the lingering sense of unease.As he sat up in bed, his hands grasped the edge of the mattress, his expression puzzled. He seemed lost in thought, his mind consumed by the fragments of the nightmare. The recurring dreams had been plaguing him for a while now, and he couldn't shake off the feeling that they were trying to tell him something.Druid took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing thoughts. He didn't want to dwell on the nightmares, but they seemed to be haunting him, refusing to let him go. He needed to clear his mind, focus on the present, and work through his problems one step at a time.With a determined look, Druid swung his legs over the side of the bed, planting his feet firmly on the ground. He would face whatever challenges la

    Princess Dahlia's anger was palpable as she slammed her fist on the table, the sound echoing through the grand hall of Valkoria's castle. Her face was set in a determined expression, her eyes blazing with intensity. "Why didn't you answer my call for help?" she demanded, her voice firm and commanding.The silence that followed was oppressive, the advisors and nobles gathered before her exchanging uneasy glances. They seemed reluctant to meet her gaze, and Princess Dahlia's frustration grew. "I sent a message to you all, asking for their aid against the monsters," she continued, her voice rising. "Why did they not respond?"The silence persisted, and Princess Dahlia's anger turned to suspicion. She leaned forward, her eyes narrowing. "What do you know?" she asked, her voice low and menacing. "Tell me the truth. What happened?"Princess Dahlia's anger boiled over as her uncle's words cut deep. "I ordered them not to lend any help to you," he had said, his tone dripping with malice. She

    The battle was intense, and Druid didn't know what else to do. He was no match for the Bling Serpent' strength, and he was tossed, battered, and hit around like a rag doll. He stumbled and fell, his vision blurring from the impact. Despite his best efforts, Druid couldn't seem to land a decisive blow. The serpent's scales were too hard, its coils too powerful. He was starting to feel hopeless, his body screaming in pain from the relentless assault.He fell to the ground, coughing blood, his eyes already wanting to close. The Bling Serpent loomed over him, its eyes burning with an otherworldly intensity. Druid knew he was running out of time. He could feel the serpent's hot breath on his skin, and its coils were tightening around him, squeezing the life out of him.But he refused to give up. With a surge of adrenaline, he forced himself to focus. He studied the creature's movements, looking for any weakness. He noticed that the serpent's coils seemed to be slightly slower on its left s

    Druid's ears perked up as he overheard the elders discussing another beast. He was stunned, and his mind began to whirl with questions. What kind of beast? Where was it? Why were they talking about it? He wanted to know more, but he waited patiently for them to finish their conversation.As soon as they dispersed, Druid made his way to the leader who had healed him. He knocked on the door frame, and when the leader looked up, Druid greeted him with a nod. "Good evening," he said, his voice respectful. The leader smiled, and beckoned Druid to enter. "Ah, Druid, good evening to you as well. I see you're feeling better. Please, come in and sit down."Druid entered the room, his eyes taking in the simple but elegant decor. He sat down in the chair offered to him, and looked at the leader expectantly. "I couldn't help but overhear your conversation about another beast," he said, getting straight to the point. "Can you tell me more about it?" The leader's expression turned serious, and he n

    I slowly opened my eyes, wincing as the soft light of the candles danced across my vision. The gentle flicker of the flames seemed to pulse with a life of its own, casting eerie shadows on the walls around me. My brows furrowed in confusion as I took in my surroundings, my mind foggy and disoriented. "Where am I?" I asked and tried to adjust my eyes to the darkness. I didn't even know what else to say at this point. I tried to adjust my eyes to the lighting, and that's when I noticed the people sitting around me, their faces illuminated by the soft glow of the candles."Who are you?" I immediately asked, my eyes swaying over to one of them as I tried to sit up, but it was obvious that I was in pain so I couldn't. One of them, a man with a kind face and gentle eyes, leaned forward and asked, "How are you feeling?" His voice was soft and soothing, like a warm tool that made me relax. He held a small herb in his hand, its aroma going up to my nostrils, and his eyes were fixed intently
