Interlude 7 - The Feast Starts with Fireworks The first division troops, led by Bjorc Zagann, were proceeding through the mountain. 500 armed soldiers were climbing up the mountain path, stepping over grass, crossing through the bushes.

Chapter 24 - A Traitor’s Demise “ —and that’s all I heard.” “...how exactly did you manage to hear all that?” I shared the rumors about the royal family related to me by my “friend” in the capital to my father, who reacted half impressed and half worried.
