CHAPTER SIXTY-EIGHT
“Welcome, my younglings…”The group of younglings (Fenn estimated about twenty) were all dressed in freshly washed and neatly pressed navy blue robes with pink and green hems and black cuffs and collars. Most of them looked up at Fenn with innocent wide eyes full of bewilderment. Others were sniffling and fidgeting. One of the two servants who had come with his daughter was trying scolding tactics mixed with motherly softness to assure the younglings that the ceremony of the Path would end soon and they would be reunited with their parents soon.One of the younglings at the back of the underground dome formation began to leak from his mouth and nose as he fidgeted with his fingers while staring at Fenn. The youngling standing next to him made a disgusted sound and pinched his nose.“They just pooped by themselves!”The other younglings joined in expressing their disgust.“Ewww, gross!”Those who were closer to the stinky youngling rippled away.I don't know if it's because they said s
CHAPTER SIXTY-SEVEN
“At the beginning of the Total cycle, we had an attack on one of the wheat silos in Gen. Based on the concentration of their forces and prior knowledge, we have reason to believe that that is also where their HQ is situated,” said Tarrus.The Governor of the Capital sighed and looked at each of the elder priests that flanked both his sides in turn.“However, even though we executed more than eighteen of them and imprisoned ten, their next attack was a bombing. A holy guard outpost located just twenty-five kilometres from Avani’s gates was reduced to dust and rubble.”King Fenn caught Tarrus looking at him through his peripheral vision.“And the most recent attack, the one that warranted the execution we witnessed a few hours ago, was the kidnapping of a priest. A priest who was taken from a church within the heart of Avani.”Tarrus punctuated his distaste by slamming his fist on the table. A dull thud shook the table, but it was short-lived due to the vacuum of the mute bubble. Murmur
CHAPTER SIXTY-SIX
When he cleared his plate and reached for a napkin to wipe his mouth, King Fenn felt some sense of normalcy return to his mind. Of course, the unease he was feeling prior to the banquet wasn't caused by the execution.Been through so many of those I actually feel sleepy when I see one of these days...But the reason for the execution is what had been gnawing at him since the terrorists were caught the previous night. He had barely gotten a wink of sleep as he thought about it. It was the whole reason why he called for the meeting.He grabbed his chalice and took a swig of the honey and mint wine that was reserved for such occasions.Better than Golden Wine if you ask me.It complemented the pleasant aftertaste of the glazed turkey and Miyak broth that he had just devoured.“My king…”That was Tarrus.He was seated to Fenn's left, at one of the corners of the lengthy upper-level table. All the while through the post-execution feast, he couldn't stop remembering what had happened to Kry
CHAPTER SIXTY-FIVE
After the gore fest, there was a banquet.As the Governors and their children left the Trial Quad, Ilonah let her body move for her but her mind was far from the current situation.They crossed the grassy plains by a gold paved path bejeweled with red and green rubies that spelt out the prophecies and the Laws from the Artkium. When they entered the Castles reception area, Ilonah caught sight of something she had forgotten she needed to take a copy off. It was nailed to the extreme right wall behind a pane of glass. She reduced her stride, forcing the servants to also fall behind in a light trot. I dont feel any Twanfe laced to it…i just need to make sure no one sees me.After falling away from the rest of the group, she decided to stop in her tracks. She watched the group disappear behind the corner that led to the Kings Banquet hall. She realized that she was holding her breath this entire time.She turned her head,“Take this thing off of me.”The servants looked at eachother.“D
CHAPTER SIXTY-FOUR
She didn't look at him directly, but she could feel her father's signature piercing gaze of disapproval forcing itself into the side of her head.From the extreme left of the platform rose Tarrus Gent, the Governor of Aguaron.He was a small man with a full head of shiny grey hair. He approached the podium and whispered projection before he made the introductory proceedings.“Welcome, my fellow Ozmathians.” he began,Ilonah never liked Governor Gent. He was as small and as slimy as a swamp Slimikus. He had this permanent smile and a lazy gaze that made it feel like he was constantly thinking about how much better he was than everyone else. She was certain that he was up to no good; she didn't doubt the rumours. It was one of the few things that she actually agreed on with her father. She cast a glance towards the King. Even Fenn didn’t seem interested in Gent’s company. But that observation was nullified by the fact that Tarrus was basically the most powerful Ozamthian after the king.
CHAPTER SIXTY-THREE
The carriage rolled to a stop as it arrived at the capital's southeastern gate.Ilonah was woken up by the sound of salutations from the Holy Guard soldiers posted at both flanks of the giant golden entrance. The statues of Trenax and Yog shimmered in the mid-morning sunlight as it reached the packed streets of Aguaron.Usually, and ironically, the largest city in Ozmath wasn't this busy. But nationwide announcements that covered the entire Ozmath made sure that even the fifth Inka in Fii knew that all the important Ozmath were going to be present in the capital on the third sun cycle of the eigth full cycle of the 2025th completion.Merchants held up their goods energetically as they noticed the governor’s sigil on Ilonah’s carriage. They probably think its father in here right now…She cracked open the window to just give a teaser of her face. This was something she regretted instantly because when they noticed that it was a woman, the perfume, textile, and jewellery merchants snat
