“You have us unverified information. I believe very well that this was your fault. Come on, you have to understand that there are a lot of things involved here.”

He nodded. “ I admit that it was both of our fault, but I have a solution. How about we do something about the people. We bring up those that are against normal. I know they'll support us. How about we make them know who's boss?”

“You're right. I think there's a way to make that happen. It's all a matter of time. I'll get in contact with some of the men, and ensure they all find something to charge him with.”

He was bragging hard, but Havold listened to everything that was being said. “Listen anyway you do it, as long as it is in my favour, then I don't care. I don't want to have to hear anything about being impeached.”

Lucas gulped. “There's no problem. Everything is going to be fine. I have a feeling it's going to be.”

“Better.” Havold replied, and walked away from there. He hated everything that was happening, and couldn

    Lana paced around. She was extremely worried about him, and tried her best to check up on him, but all attempts to reach him on phone proved abortive.“He’s never this way. He might be angry, but will never not take my call. Besides, I've never done anything to make him angry, or did I?” she asked herself, and immediately sighed. There was a lot on her head, and she pressed her lips together, trying to understand the whole situation. Her facial expression was in a frown, and her lips were tied together. She was confused, and didn't know what to do above everything. Her heart ached, and she was worried about everything else. “One last time. I'll try one last time.” She encouraged herself, trying her best to reach him, but despite it ringing, he didn't want to take up the call.“Does he want to be alone? Or is he sick?” She tried finding out the reason all this was happening, but it didn't seem like she had any choice. A sigh left her lips, and then she ran her hands through her hair

    Lana held his hands, and together they went to her car. He sat down on the passenger's seat because she insisted on driving. She had a feeling he wasn't sober.The drive was quiet, and she remained in thoughts as well. He hadn't told her all that happened, but she was hoping he would tell her soon enough. She was worried about his well-being, and wished he was going to be fine.After driving a while, she packed, and he exited the car as well.“We're here, so try to enjoy yourself, and forget about these burdens on your chest.”They spent a long time at the club drinking, but Lana was careful. She watched him drink, and didn't bother to stop him. If that was a way for him to be happy, she was never going to stop him from drinking.Once she saw he had had enough, she paid for the drinks they had, and then helped him to the car.“I'm not drunk you know? If you keep doing this people are going to think I'm actually drunk.”Lana laughed, her eyes fixed on him. “I'm actually doing this beca

    He immediately moved from her nape to her chest, and then to her nipples that were begging for attention. They seemed erected, and stood at attention.His lips lingered on them for a while, and his tongue brushed against them crashing chills to pass through Lana. She closed her eyes, breathing hard, and thrashing on the bed with her curled toes.“Oh fuck… you're going to kill me,” she gasped, while he sick on her nipples so much that she felt her abdomen respond. It felt like there were a thousand jolts about to explode in there.“You're going to kill me….fuck…” she groaned, and tried to roll around, but he held her bound, sucking one breast while fondling the other, and vice versa.He moved his lips away from her, and immediately tried to control herself. His eyes remained fixed on her, and she was trying her best to not shy away.She needed him, and he needed her, but the intensity at which he stared at her caused her to turn red. His hands moved to her already wet pussy, and withou

    He groaned, slowly pushing himself up from the bed, but when he did, he noticed she was still on the bed Lana was naked, and seeing how curled she was made him mirk. Henry's hands ran along her back, making her moan in her sleep. She was the reason why he felt a bit better, else, he would have drank himself to stupor without bothering about anything that could happen afterwards.But she came right on time, and made sure everything was right in place. Indeed, she was someone he was grateful for. He rushed into the bathroom to have a bath and once he was out of the shower, he tried to relax by going to take a glass of whiskey. He poured himself a glass of whiskey, still in thought about the situation. Everyone saw Henry as the bad guy now. His reputation was at stake, and if something wasn't done about it fast enough, there was no doubt that he would forever remain like this, nothing but a loser.“So what are your plans? What do you plan to do about everything?” he asked with raised b

    Bethany couldn't help but rethink everything that had been going. Her eyes stared at the paperwork she had on the table, and even when she held a pen in her hand, she couldn't just concentrate on the work that was on her desk.“What the fuck is happening to me? Why can't I seem to concentrate?” she asked, folding her hands after placing the pen on her hands on the desk.

    Mayor Lucas was in his office. He had a smirk on his face as he counted the boxes filled with money. The money was brought to his office for safe keeping, but it seemed like he already had other plans for the money.He moved around selfishly, and tried his best to not make any sounds. It seemed like everything was going to work out for him after all, the money was here.“I think the property in the estate would make a lot of sense. I could take some of the money and no one's going to know about it.” he expressed a smile on his lips. He was finally going to be able to get the property he had always wanted to buy.As he looked at the money on his desk, and the ones in the bag, he had already started to plan out numerous vacation.“The money is so much. No one is going to know about it. There's no need to worry…” he explained, and could only commend himself.

    Jackson sat there with a serious look on his face. He was seated facing the fireplace, and his mind was in so many places. He was actually waiting for news from the spy he had been waiting for.“Mr Jackson, I brought news. I hope you are going to love it…” the messenger spy who had just returned expressed with a smirk on his face. “And what is it this time? You haven't been burning enough good news lately, and I fear today might be the same.”However, he shook his head. “No, I don't think so. Today's news is so good, I'm sure you're going to reward me for it. I know you will.”Jackson hummed before rubbing his hands against his beards. It seemed he was in deep thoughts concerning all that was happening. He had a lot of things involved as well.“So what's the news?” Jackson asked again. He felt like the messenger was wasting a lot of time. “Well, I have confirmed it. Norman is in jail, and…”Jackson got impatient. “Say Something, and stop keeping me in suspense.

    They were all seated. Henry, Lana, and Lucas. It seemed they were all trying to look at what was happening. The fact that things were just all over the place right now was disheartening.Henry heaved, and turned towards Lucas who seemed really worried about everything. He was trying so hard to get himself,but it seemed like things were well enough.“Are you sure things are going to be fine? Aren't you hearing everything that has been happening? The violence is getting too much to bear. I don't think I can actually say that things are getting out of hand.”Lana was the one who commented. She was exceptionally scared she knew how things could be. She knew that things weren't safe.“The rate of crime is so high, I'm sure someone is against us. I know it, but how do we know who?” she continued, but her statement made him turn towards her. “You're not wrong. It could actually be our enemy. We all have a common enemy. But we also should know that we shouldn't put one person in mind. Besid

    As Norman returned to the kingdom with the phoenix feather in hand, a murmur of respect rippled through the crowd.“Did you hear the rumours?

Whispers and speculations spread like wildfire as Norman approached the queen, the feather held out in offering.The queen's eyes narrowed slightly as she took the feather, her voice tinged with curiosity. "Hmm, is this really a phoenix feather? Are you sure you defeated the phoenix?" she asked, her tone probing for details. “Or is this fake?” The kingdom's inhabitants gathered around, eager to hear Norman's tale and verify the authenticity of his claim. However, Norman remained unfazed by the commotion. He had other priorities in mind, and his focus was fixed on achieving a specific goal.With a calm demeanour, Norman stood before the queen, his eyes

    Queen Kurai's eyes sparkled with intrigue as she regarded Norman, her gaze lingering on him with a mixture of curiosity and admiration. "I think I have underestimated you," she said, a smile playing on her lips. "You seem like someone worthy of a lot of things. So far, you've passed most of the tests I've given you."Her expression turned serious, her voice taking on a subtle edge. "But let's not forget this, Norman," she said, her words dripping with an unspoken warning. The air seemed to thicken with tension as the stakes hung unspoken, a gentle reminder of the consequences of failure.Norman met her gaze, his smile unwavering, his eyes locked on hers with a fierce determination.

    Norman's throat constricted as he swallowed, his mind racing with anticipation and fear. Not fear, but worry.The queen's words echoed in his thoughts…“This challenge is meant to break you.” “But what did it entail?” he asked himself because she hadn't said anything else. She had given him no hint, no clue, just a warning that left him wondering. The more he thought about it, the more his imagination ran wild with worst-case scenarios.As he stood there, Norman couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that settled in the pit of his stomach. It was a heavy, gnawing sensation that seemed to spread through his entire body, making his muscles tense and his heart pound. What lay ahead?

    The city of Yivel was a mosaic of stone spires and huge bazaars, but its north quarter was an open sore, infested by a plague of death that poisoned the air and stilled the streets. The plague quarter was quarantined, its narrow streets shut behind wooden palisades, their faces smeared with notices in blood-red paint. The plague was merciless, its victims wiry and sweating, their bodies smeared with festering black boils, their coughs death knells. There were empty houses, boarded-up windows, chalk-crossed doors. There was a reek of rot, and a small, acrid bite of medicinal herbs that could not stem the tide. Yivel's best physicians, wrapped in white robes and leather hoods, glided like spirits, their remedies futile, their furrowed, tortured faces. Norman, a foreigner to this world, was tasked with finding the antidote where the smartest had fallen short, his quest a thread held to the vault and Murai, the Kurai most precious, his master's sister, who bore it next to her heart.Norma

    Northern villages were a hard country, their wind-battered, curved hills battered by war and worn by wind. There was air, the scent of pine and wet earth, bruise-coloured sky, restless clouds low-hung. Muddy roads wandered between clusters of thatched cottages, worn roofs and soot-black walls from last's raids. The Black Path Bandits inspired terror—plundered barns, stolen cattle, shallow trenches. The villages lived in terror, for a fog, terror descended on the villages, the skeletal visage of the villagers, their eyes reaching out to the horizon, awaiting the next raid. The bandits were a plague, merciless and ruthless, their name spoken in terror. Norman, this time a ghost of tempest, had been sent to stem them.He strides across the wasteland, his tattered cloak lost in twilight, his boots silent on the mossy ground. His huge body is lean from journeying, his black hair streaked with gray, his blue eyes burning with purpose. Scars cover his hands, a topography of combat, and a sho

    Norman woke up with a throbbing headache, groaning as he sat up. As his vision cleared, he noticed Queen Kurai sitting in front of him, her expression calm and collected. Norman rubbed his temples, trying to relieve the pain he was feeling. However, her next words seem to make him open his eyes. "Good job, Norman," Queen Kurai said, her voice gentle. "You passed the first mission. The blue eliza venom is exactly what I needed."Norman looked up at her, still trying to shake off the effects of the venom. "What...what happened?" he asked, his voice hoarse. He seemed to still be very weak, and his memory was faint. Queen Kurai smiled. "You were bitten, but don't worry, I've taken care of the wound. You'll recover fully.” her assurance made him sigh, and he turned to see that his hands were bandaged. As well. Norman's eyes widened in shock as he stared at Queen Kurai. "How did I survive?" he asked, his voice laced with confusion.The Queen's expression remained calm. He was asking too

    Queen Kurai's eyes sparkled with a hint of mischief as she regarded Norman. "I'll help you, but you must complete seven deadly missions," she said, her voice firm.Norman's jaw dropped in shock. "Seven deadly missions?" he repeated, incredulous. "Why would you give me such a condition?"The Queen's smile grew wider. "Because I want to. It's just what I want."Norman hesitated, weighing his options. After a moment, he nodded. "Alright, I agree. What is the first mission?"Queen Kurai's smile turned into that of mischief. "Are you sure you really want to do this?" she asked, her voice laced with amusement.Norman swallowed, and tried to control himself. "I am willing to do it," he said, his voice firm.The Queen's eyes gleamed with anticipation. "Very well, then. Let us begin…”It seemed she had other plans for him. Things he didn't even know. He had no idea what he was going into, but he wanted to make sure everything made sense to him at this time. Queen Kurai's smile turned serious

    Queen Kurai's brow furrowed with concern as she watched Norman's bold request sink in. She turned to her daughter, Murai, who had entered the room quietly. “Do you think you can go with this man?” She was asked but when she was unable to respond, she was immediately made to keep shut. There were so many things involved in his moments. “I don't want to, mother. I have people to serve here. I won't go with him. He doesn't seem genuine…” she explained, and her mother sighed. "Murai, we need to discuss this matter privately," the Queen said, her voice low and measured.Murai's eyes met Norman's for a brief moment before she nodded and followed her mother out of the throne room. The doors closed behind them, leaving Norman alone with the guards.The Queen and Murai walked to a nearby chamber, the tension between them palpable. Once inside, Queen Kurai turned to Murai and explained the situation. “The man seems to be here for a reason which I do not know of at the moment, but I need you

    Norman stood before Queen Kurai, his presence calm and respectful. She has even watched him and for some reason she seemed to want to know what he had been going through in his mind.“Please have a seat. You can't keep standing. I have been told you wanted to see me, and seeing you now gives me great pleasure Norman…” she said, making him smirk. However, when he didn't say anything, she gestured for him to see her. Queen Kurai, with an air of elegant happiness, welcomed him warmly. "Please, take a seat," she said, her voice gentle, as she gestured to a plush chair opposite her throne.Norman stared at the throne. He had a lot on his mind, but this seemed to be the best for him so far. He had been worried that things weren't the way he wanted them, but she had been trying to make things make sense for a while now, and it seemed as though it was working. His mission here was simple. After a while he did as she said. As Norman sat down, Queen Kurai initiated the conversation, inquiri
