Lone Druid

Long before the first words of the first histories there rose the druidic Bear Clan. Wise and just they were, and focused in their ways to seek an understanding of the natural order. The arch forces of nature saw this, and so sought the most learned among them. Wise old Sylla, clan justiciar and seer, stepped forward for his kin, and to him was given the Seed with these words: 'When all of the world has dimmed, when civilization has left these lands, when the world is slain and wracked by the endless deserts at the end of ages, plant the Seed.' As he grasped his trust, Sylla felt his years recede and his vitality returned. Vast knowledge burst into his mind. He found himself able to project his very will into reality and, with some concentration, alter his own physical form as well. Yet subtle whispers and cruel ears brought word of the Seed and its power to other peoples, and a terrible war crashed upon the Bear Clan. As his ancestral home burned, Sylla took his burden and fled to the wild places. Ages passed, and time and myth forgot the Bear Clan, forgot Sylla and the Seed, forgot wondrous civilizations that rose and fell in Bear Clan's wake. For millenia Sylla has waited, waited for word from his deities, waited for peace to come to the ever warring realms, waited in exile and in secret for the end of all things and for the conclusion of his sacred commitment, preparing himself always to face and destroy whatever would dare threaten his purpose.

Old Dreams Never Die

One The rough shape of the  Lantis Mountains  was semi-visible in the misty clouds, fuzzily outlined by the lone moon in the dark shadows. Brody sat under a tree, gazing at the fuzzy outline of the distant mountains. He had just finished a battle, and the pain in his right hand hadn't yet faded away. A fluorescent blue light on his arm flickered across his face – Brody was always so expressionless, no matter what he was doing. With battle after battle and countless pains in his right hand, Brody's memory had gradually been filled up long ago. The reckless boy in the small village, the boy who thought he could defeat everything, and the blazing fire in that village. For Brody, the days after retrieving his memories were a cold and gloomy bottomless ocean. Between the endless Lantis Mountains, the light and shadow of the rising sun and the setting moon were his only remaining boats, saving him from drowning in the sea. Brody closed his eyes. When he opened them again, Benedetta w

Time of Lunar Eclipse

One It was a moonless night, and there were dark clouds over the forest. Occasionally a gust of wind blew, and the leaves rustled very softly. Alucard swung a sword, cutting down two lower demons who had snuck around to attack from the flanks. "Those things are so annoying." Since encountering a small group of demon scouts in the southeastern foothills of the Lantis Mountains, Alucard pursued them all the way, and saw a large group of demons on the edge of the forest. They were surrounding a small group of elves, steadily tightening the encirclement. Alucard glanced at the besieged elves. The leading elven girl held a silver bow with her hair tied up high, directing the elves to launch a counterattack. Right after, he unlocked the seal on his right hand and rushed into the battlefield. The demons were disrupted by the sudden enemy's deployment. They did not know how many people had come to support this small unit of elves. They rushed towards Alucard one by one, and weak
