Preparing for advanced training Eryndor reviewed the schedules, satisfied with the comprehensive plans. He knew that executing these training programs would transform the goblins into a formidable force. Grimp approached, curious about the schedules. Eryndor explained the plans, and Grimp nodded enthusiastically. "Chief, this will make us strong. We'll defend our clan and village." Eryndor smiled. "We'll make our clan proud, Grimp. Let's begin training." As Eryndor finalized the training schedules, a group of older goblins approached him. Their weathered faces and worn bodies testified to years of hardship. "Chief Eryndor," one of them said, "we may not be fit for battle, but we can still contribute. We'll provide food for our kin through hunting." Eryndor's eyes warmed with gratitude. "Thank you, honored elders. Your contribution is vital. Our warriors need nourishment to train effectively." The older goblin nodded. "We'll ensure the clan's bellies are full. What precautions should we take, Chief?" "Be cautious when hunting," Eryndor advised. "If you encounter prey too large or dangerous, don't hesitate to retreat. Our scouts can provide guidance on safe hunting grounds." The elder goblin nodded, his eyes twinkling. "We'll bring back the best meat for our kin. And if we find anything... unusual, we'll report back to you." Eryndor smiled. "I trust your judgment, elders. Your experience will keep our clan fed and safe." With renewed purpose, the older goblins set out to hunt, their worn bodies carrying a sense of pride. Meanwhile, Eryndor turned his attention to the training grounds, where Grimp was organizing the enlisted goblins. "Today, we begin our journey to become the Legion," Eryndor declared, his voice echoing across the grounds. The goblins stood tall, ready to embark on their transformation. As the sun approached its peak, a commotion broke out at the village entrance. An older goblin, out of breath and sweating, stumbled toward Eryndor. "Chief! Chief Eryndor!" he exclaimed, gasping for air. Eryndor rushed to his side, concern etched on his face. "What happened, Thorik? You look like you've seen a ghost." Thorik swallowed hard, his chest heaving. "Humans, Chief. We found humans near the orc battle site. Two females and one male. They... two of our hunters fell by their blade, but we managed to capture them." Eryndor's eyes widened in surprise. Humans? So close to their village? He quickly composed himself. "Summon Grimp," he ordered a nearby goblin. Grimp arrived, bowing slightly. "Chief?" "Thorik here has captured humans. Follow him and bring them to me," Eryndor instructed. Grimp nodded, his expression serious. "I'll ensure their safe transport, Chief." With a bow, Grimp followed Thorik out of the village. Eryndor's mind whirled with questions. What were humans doing so close to their territory? Were they scouts, or merely lost travelers? He needed to interrogate them to understand the potential threat. As he awaited Grimp's return, Eryndor's thoughts turned to strategy. If humans were encroaching on their lands, the clan's safety was at risk. He must be prepared to defend his people. Minutes passed, and the sound of approaching footsteps echoed through the village. Grimp returned, escorting three humans – two women and one man – bound and guarded by several goblins. Eryndor's gaze locked onto the humans, his expression stern. "Bring them forward." The youngest female could not hold a steady gaze at Eryndor. "A dark elf." She muttered to herself but Eryndor heard it. Eryndor stepped forward, inspecting the humans. The youngest, likely 18, wore exquisite jewelry and a silk gown, indicating royalty. The second female, around 24, donned silver steel armor with a red dragon insignia – a Knight. The male wore chainmail armor. "Introduce yourselves," Eryndor commanded. The older female Knight straightened, her eyes flashing defiance. "We'll only speak to the goblin chief. A dark elf like you is beneath our notice." Eryndor smiled, amused. He squatted beside the Knight, his voice low. "I am... the goblin chief." The Knight's eyes widened, her expression faltering. "Eryndor, Chief of the Gobrou clan and commander the Legion," he continued. "And you are?" The young royal's eyes darted between Eryndor and the Knight, alarm written on her face. "I.. I am Princess Isabella," she stammered. The Knight remained silent, her jaw clenched. Eryndor's gaze lingered on the Knight. "And you, Knight?" The male, breaking the silence, spoke up. "I'm Sir Edward, her protector." Eryndor nodded. "Sir Edward. Princess Isabella. Knight...?" The Knight's resolve crumbled. "Lady Commander Adara." Eryndor's smile broadened. "Welcome, Princess, Sir Edward, and Lady Commander Adara. You'll find our hospitality... unique." Eryndor beckoned Grimp, who approached with a bow. "Take our guests to an empty hut," Eryndor instructed. "I'll attend to them later." Grimp nodded, his eyes flicking to the humans. "As you command, Chief." Eryndor turned to the trio. "As much as I'd like to entertain you and address your crimes against my clan, I'm afraid now is not the time." He gestured toward the training grounds, where goblins jogged, did push-ups, and clashed swords. "As you see, we're in the midst of training. Your presence is... untimely." Princess Isabella's eyes widened, taking in the bustling training grounds. Lady Commander Adara's expression darkened, while Sir Edward's gaze lingered on the goblin warriors. Grimp stepped forward, gesturing for the humans to follow. "This way, please." The trio hesitated, then complied, flanked by Grimp and several goblin guards. As they disappeared into the village, Eryndor's attention returned to the training grounds. He watched, satisfied, as his warriors honed their skills. The sound of clashing steel and shouts of exertion filled the air, a symphony of strength and determination. Eryndor's thoughts, however, remained with the humans. What brought them to his lands? What secrets did they hide? He would uncover the truth soon enough.Latest Chapter
Chapter 93. We Work Together
The council chamber of New Elyria was alive with voices even before Eryndor entered. Torches burned along the stone walls, shadows dancing across the long table where elves, goblins, centaurs, orcs, harpies, and humans sat side by side. It was a sight no one in the Eastern Continent would have believed, that so many races, once bitter enemies, now sat together under one roof.But unity was fragile, and tonight it trembled.The doors swung open. Eryndor stepped inside, his golden hair catching the torchlight, his silver armor gleaming. The room fell silent as all eyes turned to him. Behind him walked Lucius, ever calm and watchful, and Grimp, the hobgoblin who had been with Eryndor from the very beginning. Isabella, once a princess, now sat at his right hand, her gaze steady.Eryndor sat at the head of the table and folded his hands. “Speak,” he said simply. “What troubles you?”A human councilor, Lord Branwell, rose first. His face was pale, his fingers trembling as he held a parchmen
Chapter 92. The Alliance
The great hall of Valebridge Keep groaned under the weight of voices. Flames burned in golden braziers, casting long shadows across the round table where twelve kings sat in heavy chairs carved with the sigils of their kingdoms. The banners of the Southern Continent—wolves, lions, spears, suns, and towers—hung overhead, but tonight they did not bring pride. Tonight they were reminders of what could be lost.The fall of Draemir had shaken them. The destruction of Kelthorn only days later left no doubt—this was no common war. An evil sorcereress was here in their continent.. and she had brought hell with her.King Harland of Valebridge, the host, rose first. His silver beard spilled over his chest, and his iron crown gleamed. He slammed his hand on the table.“Brothers! We cannot sit idle. The shadow spreads with every sunrise. If we do nothing, our people will be cattle to that witch before the season ends.”Murmurs of agreement rippled through the chamber. But King Rhogar of Stonevale
Chapter 91. Duskmar's First Campaign
The night was darker than a grave. Clouds swallowed the moon, and no stars gave light. The world felt smothered, as though it already belonged to the shadow. Marching feet broke the silence, steady and relentless, like the beating of a single heart. At the front rode General Duskmar, his armor black as coal, his helm carved into the shape of a skull. Behind him stretched thousands of soldiers, once men and women, now bound in chains of shadow, their eyes glowing a sickly white. They did not speak. They did not breathe. They only obeyed.The army stopped when the first torch of Kelthorn flickered in the distance. It was a small farming town surrounded by low stone walls. Chickens clucked in coops, farmers snored in their beds, and lazy guards strolled along the ramparts with half-shut eyes. To them, this was just another peaceful night. To Duskmar, it was the beginning of conquest.He raised his black steel blade, and his voice carried like thunder.“Tonight, this town falls. Half of i
Chapter 90. The Shadow Returns
The great meeting hall of Eryndor’s keep was built of stone and timber, decorated with banners of every tribe, clan, and kin who had sworn loyalty to him. Wolves’ heads, harpy feathers, goblin marks, elven leaves, symbols of unity that once seemed impossible. The torches burned warmly along the walls, but the faces gathered around the table were serious.At the head of the long oak table sat Eryndor, the blonde elf whose calm strength had drawn beasts and men alike under his banner. At his right hand sat Lucius, broad-shouldered and sharp-eyed, his armor gleaming faintly in the torchlight. Beside him was Grimp, the hobgoblin who had followed Eryndor since the beginning, his tusked mouth pulled into a permanent scowl that disguised his loyalty.Further down sat Isabella, the former princess of Kryptoria, her beauty regal even in her simple gown, her hand resting lightly on Eryndor’s arm. Across from her, a wide circle of representatives, a centaur chieftain, a wolfkin matriarch, an orc
Chapter 89. Birth Of BlackRaven
The palace of Draemir was no longer a place of light. Once, its marble walls had gleamed in the morning sun, banners of the royal house fluttering proudly above its towers. Now the stone was stained with black veins of crawling shadow, and the banners had been burned to ash. The great hall, where kings once sat, was drowned in darkness that pulsed like a living heart.At the center stood Sorceress Lyra Moonwhisper.Her silver hair shimmered faintly against the gloom, her crimson eyes glowing like embers in a furnace. Around her knelt hundreds of soldiers clad in black, their armor ink-like, their eyes empty hollows. The Shadow Legion. They waited in silence, still as statues.At the front knelt a towering figure—General Duskmar, her chosen blade, his armor marked with runes that devoured light. His voice was deep and steady.“My mistress. The Legion is ready. Say the word, and they will march.”Lyra’s lips curved into a smile. “Good. But ready is not enough. The world must tremble whe
Chapter 88. Fear in Rakeshire
The town of Rakeshire always smelled of bread and river water. Every morning the air was filled with the sound of fishermen calling out, merchants shouting prices in the square, and children running through narrow cobbled streets. To strangers, it seemed like a place far away from war, far away from the darkness spreading across the lands.But for King Eisblish, the quiet streets were a cage.He walked through the marketplace, his cloak drawn low, his silver-gray beard tucked into his collar. Every step reminded him he was no longer a king. He was a man in hiding. At his side strode his son, Prince Arin, tall and sharp-eyed, his hair the same pale gold that marked him as royal.“Father,” Arin muttered, glancing at a group of blacksmiths hammering iron. “Do you see the way they look at us? They know we’re not from here.”Eisblish didn’t raise his eyes. “Keep your voice down, Arin. The less people notice us, the longer we live.”Arin’s jaw tightened. “Living? You call this living? Hidin
