Chapter 1: BlurHauntedChapter 1: Blur
Once a peacefull nation, Tameria was wiped off the face of the world by an army so vast and powerful they never stood a chance. One Tamerian survived the massacre. He is the last of his race and wakes up in a land which is not his own. He somehow made it all the way across the ocean to Ardannia. There he needs to rediscover himself and shake off the past that is haunting him each time he goes to sleep. Ardannia, the land he wakes up in is soon targeted by the army that wiped his homeland from the face of the earth. Will he be able to do anything this time or will he be as powerless as when they struck his homeland?

“Grandpa, grandpa! Tell us one more story, just one!” They said in chorus. “Well…one last story then.” The old, grey bearded, man replied as he gave the five year old twin brothers a stroke on the head. The two brothers nestled themselves against their grandfather as they sat by the fireplace. Three steamy mugs of hot coco were on the ground next to them, their grandfather picked up one of the mugs and took a few sips before he started with his tale.

Lindor's Luminaries 6We finally reached the wretched village at midafternoon on the third day. It was very small, even to my inexperienced eyes, and had nothing more than a few houses, a shop or two, and what passed for an inn. I wasnt complaining, since it had a roof and seemed clean enough. It also had people to fill up a nice-sized tub with hot water, so I could finally wash the smell of horse out of my hair. The back of my mind muttered something about the futility of this, since Id probably just stink again in a day, but the pleasure of immersing myself in hot water smelling vaguely like lavender was enLindor's Luminaries 6


Lindor's Luminaries 5Seyzhavyes arrival caused surprisingly little stir, to my relief. Though she insisted on following me around most of the time, she left her helmet and most of her weapons in the stable where she had set up her bedroll. Nobody really knew where to put her, since Wystan didnt want to inflict her on the servants quarters and putting her in the guards barracks was absolutely out of the question, so it was a relief when she declared her intent to sleep in the stable with her horse. I wouldnt have trusted the beast that much, but she claimed to have raised it from a foal and trained itLindor's Luminaries 5


Lindor's Luminaries 4I didnt know what I was going to do once I had reached the room Id slept in. I didnt really want to go back to sleep, and I didnt really want to sit and stare at the wall either. I attempted to pace and realized I was still wearing Ysaeres court dress, which was a good deal longer than any skirt I was used to dealing with. I should probably change out of it before I damaged it.Lindor's Luminaries 4
After several minutes fumbling with laces of various kinds, the dress was laid out on the bed and I was wearing a forest green outfit similar to the gold one Id been wearing the day befor


Lindor's Luminaries 3Lady Ysaere woke me up again, but this time it was morning. Hello, dear! she said, flinging the curtains open. We have to get you ready to see the Queen!Lindor's Luminaries 3
I blinked at the sudden blaze of sunlight, still groggy. Yes maam.
Come. Well find you something suitable before the audience hour.
