_N/A

Rowan’s knuckle swished through the air. He was ready to shift his body and offer a better attack this time, now that his opponents speed was better accounted for. (How could he have misjudged Vasco?) when Barrock grabbed a hold of him.

"Master yourself!" He reprimanded. "Are you not a soldier?!"

Rowan’s eyes quickly shifted towards the Orc. Silver was beaming angrily in them. The Light Elf shut his eyes from a breath, and when he re-opened them, the storm that had been raging inside of Rowan had quelled — for the time being.

A smile grimaced on his face, “You’re right, my friend.” He pulled himself free of the big creature’s grasp. He did not bother to look towards Vasco. “I apologize about my behavior.”

Rowan mentally swallowed shame. Although, he still felt upset, at himself for not being able to control himself over his sister and equally at Vasco for pulling every string he possibly could. The human cared for nothing of Avalia. He was a selfish brat.

“It’s all better now, brother,” Aurora spoke wearily. There were tears still swelled in her eyes. Her lips pressed together in an attempt to keep her emotions to herself.

Bashfully, she turned towards Barrock. Thank you so much, for your kindness and help,” She could feel her cheeks tingling. The darkness in front of her comforted her. She imagine did she could see their images, their actual faces, she would be even more embarrassed by the whole ordeal.

“We are all under so much stress.” She thought of the break Rowan, Zara and she had taken before meeting Barrock. She wished she could muster up the courage to suggest something of the sort again, except, she knew they had to stay serious minded.

A small frown toyed on her lips as she remembered Zara’s reaction to eating the cake. She had been so innocent, even the quarreling wirh Rowan was so petty. It was petty just like… with Vasco. All of his talk was merely like a yipping puppy. He did not really have a bite.

“The plan sounds solid, my friend.” Rowan agreed with Barrock. He did not like it, and he had reasons he could use to argue against it, they were all fruitless. His sister was right, again, Barrock was wise.

“Well, you heard Mother Superior, ladies. Let’s shake a leg.” Aurora could smell Vasco leaning closer to her. His voice was smooth and vibrating against her skin. “MWAH!” She heard an exaggeration of his lips smacking together“Ruin you later, toots.” And she jumped. Her hand immediately cupping her cheek.

Rowan’s knuckles clenched. His teeth gritted, and he released a heated breath. “Your powers won’t obey you very well if you keep heading down this path.” The silver globe beamed in his eyes, again like a warning ray. “You should have your mind more focused on your training. Like Barrock said, stay in your lane, and you might just survive.”

Aurora was still cupping her cheek. She was having trouble admitting that Vasco’s behavior was further clouding her sight. She did not want to believe that Vasco was as terrible as Rowan was insisting. And yet, she knew he was much more devious than Zara. Any fear she had for Zara’s soul were multiplied many times when it came to Vasco.

Greetings earthlings

Best of luck! 👋🏻

Book Quotes

Giselle sighed. "Yes, Molly. It's clean. You're not the only person in the world who sanitizes things, you know."

This pleased me immensely because it confirmed what I knew in my heart. Giselle and I are so different, and yet, fundamentally, we are very much alike.

Book Quotes

Gran always drilled into me the importance of a clean and orderly home.

“A clean home, a clean body, and clean company. Do you know where that leads?”

I could not have been more than five years old when she taught me this. Ilooked way up at her as she spoke. “Where does it lead, Gran?”

“To a clean conscience. To a good, clean life.”

It would take years for me to truly understand this, but it strikes me now how right she was.

It's funny the way memories bubble up whenever I clean. I do wonder if that's the same for everyone — for everyone who cleans, that is.”

As it turns out, you can't own property as a corpse.

You can't judge a person by the job they do or by their station in life; you must judge a person by their actions.

_N/A

As the words slipped out of his mouth, Rowan realized he had relinquished some of his leadership duty to Barrock. It was a small price, several tokens, maybe. But, they had been given to the Orc, who took them thoughtfully, to say the least.

Something to make Barrock feel part of the team, while he (himself) handled his devastated sister. Handling the human, which was starting to feel more like a curse word in his thoughts was going to be a tidbit trickier than he had anticipated.

"Good. You are very well-rounded, my friend" Rowan said Barrock. Rowan looked towards the water. It was a fine day. The sun's rays were touching the gentle waves. It was a perfect starting place. "I believe an orc asking around would be less conspicuous than the rest of us. Light Elves asking around about Dark Elves could raise unnecessary suspicion, regardless of the circumstances we come-up with."

His silver eyes pierced at Vasco, shifting in annoyance as the human spoke, again. Vasco's voice was taxing. The constant, unbridled comfort that the creature harvested in his tone was irritating him. Humans were so weak and soft. He could easily pierce Vasco and be done with him, but, it was true. His threat had been for nothing.

Pale knuckles clenched together as the creature made another well-worth-mentioning suggestion. He was smart, and he was cunning. Rowan felt his leadership skills slipping from his hands. He wished to hold the reigns tighter and add more restraints, but he was failing to see how to teach the fool. At least, Barrock and he were on the same page about Vasco. Unfortunately. his sister seemed blind to it all.

She was a naturally bashful creature, and her ailment only made the delicacies of her emotions even more fragile at the fingertips of Vasco. She wanted so badly to accept the poor creature and also comfort her own state of affairs. It was evident, to not just Rowan, that Aurora was flustered and uncertain of how to properly react to their new acquaintance.

As Vasco nimbly twirled her hair, her eyes opened at his gingerly touch. Aurora understood she was flustered by him. "I... She gasped and fell prey to the feeling, once more. She had taken her vows, before their very own father, when she promised the kingdom a life of celibacy.

Her hand drew towards Vasco's wrist, and gently, her fingers touched his skin. "Please, I..." She wanted to finish her sentence, but her brother's tightened knuckle tried to make contact with Vasco's jaw.

The sound stopped Aurora's words as the light flickered in both her brother and Vasco. It was a small beat, and even then, she reacted heavily to the change of air. The tears in her eyes began swelling up further, and she could only drown in her own emotions rather than carry out any commands to cease fire.

"I said, 'Keep your dirty paws to yourself,'", Rowan had attempted to snatch Vasco's hands from Aurora and simultaneously with his fist, tried to knock the man to the ground. He wanted to pin the bastard to the park ground and make him eat dirt. "You're going to ruin her" He seethed through angering lips.
