“We need to hurry!”
Max was shouting at the rest of the team as the faction house looked like an ant hill with people scurrying everywhere.
“Which gate?” Fowl shouted as he ran down through the dining hall they had been eating in.
“South gate! We’ve got a portal stone down below, but we need to h...

“It’s coming!”
Bodalf’s body moved through the trees, the blood of the goat spraying everywhere.
Loud, earth shaking steps came from behind as the troll Hogni and Thorve had found, chased after the scent of fresh blood.
Trees sounded like they were exploding, and every Viking who stood ready in the a...

The chest was made from some sort of purple colored stone and had a small cube with a line coming from it toward the boss they had just faced engraved on its side. Runes etched into and around the chest didn’t look like any that Max recognized, and no one commented on them as Fowl lifted the lid.

“It’s been three days and we haven’t seen a single sign of the trolls. I’m telling you our only option, now that Varitan has returned with the others, is to go deeper into the woods.”
Einar nodded.

"Left!"
Blood was pouring into his eyes from the gash in his scalp, but Francis wanted to kiss the armorer who had made and given the helmet.
A clawed swipe by a tigerkin or something had struck his head partially, and while the claw had raked across his scalp, the chain and pad had prevented it from taking more o...

Lying on the tables in the tent were the rumors and stories they had ignored.
A wolf that looked like a man, with long legs, wearing some weird leather armor, dark fur and half a snout, lay on one wooden platform.
Next to it was a cat-like person, slender but with muscles displayed under the tight skin. Shar...

"You're certain you want a helm? If you haven't trained with one it might be hard to fight with one."
"I'm certain," Francis stated as the armor smith stared at him, arms crossed over his large chest. "Tell me I'm wrong. Not having one would be foolish in a fight like what we are headed into."
"No... you're ...

Glancing once more, he saw the pack of four was only about two hundred yards behind him and they were giving everything they had.
Less than half a mile out was the stone wall and wooden gate to Macenburg, and there on a horse sat Phillip.
Behind him were guards and what looked like a crowd, all starting to make no...

The sound of the morning bell rang earlier than usual, and the sun barely showed above the mountains, far to the east. The light wasn't even streaming into their open window as each boy heard the call to pain and training for another day.

Wekime’s presence upset the five watchers as they turned to face him.
A smile was on his jaw as he saw them take the same shape as he was right now. A dragonkin, as some might call it, one that allowed him easy access through the halls of this place without having to show off the immense size of his ...

“I’m fine… leave me alone,” Einar groaned as he tried to sit up.
“You’re a fool! Let me do my job and drink this. You lost a lot of blood and never told me you were bleeding like this! You’re lucky I was healed and my power returned or I would not have had the Wyrd to heal you as I did!”

Einar couldn’t help but smile at how hard everyone had worked to put Osvif’s trap together.
It seemed crazy, yet everyone had seen the results of the plans so far and with Tyr’s blessing, Osvif’s mind was running wild.
“Think it will work?”
“Are you wanting to wager on i...

Yawning, Einar covered his mouth.
“I’m sorry but I needed that break.”
Thorodd and Thorve both laughed as Einar moved to join the others who were working on cutting down more trees.

For four days they had quickly traveled west, stopping only when the horses needed a break and eating as the caravan traveled. Four wagons created a dust cloud along the dirt road that appeared to be less and less traveled the further they moved from the city.
The trees that grew together were constant...

Only one other statue was another Faction member that they could tell, and with just one ring left, they brought back a human woman named Sulenda, who towered over all of them. Her arms were bigger than their legs, and she shared a carriage with Batrire and Cordellia, taking up half of it.

“I hate dressing up,” Thorodd grumbled. “Feel like I’m headed toward my own funeral.”
“It’s a clean pair of clothes and a shirt, not the same leather armor you want to sleep in,” Thorve replied, frowning at the giant who tugged at his pants. “Stop doing that or they’ll think you crapped in them.”

“Seth!”
Everyone was saying his name, and he had fallen off the wall of earth he had created at some point.
Lying on his back, his weapon was still in his hand, unable to open as half of it was still stone.
Max could sense everyone coming near him.
“Say something!” Tanila shouted.

A cool breeze came from inside the temple, not cold but just the right temperature that it felt soothing.
Different scents filled the air as a low cloud of smoke floated about ten feet off the ground, a large thirty foot ceiling high above.

Tom watched them as they sat there in the dining hall, staring at them in disbelief.
“Two… two floors in a day and home for dinner… you all need to slow it down some or people are going to notice.”
Max nodded and kept chewing. The beef today had been slow-cooked and was falling apart when it was picked up....
